Metaphors Of Movement

From a single metaphorical phrase such as “it’s an uphill struggle” learn how to deduce huge amounts of information about someone’s experience, and how to match their experience with idiomatic communication. This demonstrates your understanding of their unique situation that often no-one has understood before (including them). By paying attention to these metaphors we already use for our problems, we stop the denial of our reality, allowing possibility for true growth and change.

Metaphors of Movement can be easily integrated into one's existing personal change practice by giving a unique way of finding "juicy" material to work with that we may not otherwise be consciously aware of.

Benefits:

• Gain deep insight into someone's (or our own) experience.
• Through idiomatic reflection (literally reflecting back what is true of the metaphor) you'll be surprised at the complex wisdom that pours from your mouth about someone's unique situation, without having to be wise at all!
• Demonstrate your understanding through deep rapport with the unconscious
• Access important material to work with that we wouldn't otherwise be consciously aware of
• Facilitate unconscious and conscious recognition of the need to change attempted strategies that aren't working
• Save time and effort: rather than needing to create a clever healing metaphor that may miss the mark, follow a proven method to elicit the metaphors someone already experiences, which will hit the mark every time.
