Get the unwanted state/ behavior (the Old State): “How do you know it’s time to (ex: feel bad)? When you think of that, do you have a picture?
Break State: “Clear the screen"
Adjust the visual submodalities for most positive feelings.
Explain the “swish”: “Now take that picture of the New State and put it in the lower left hand corner, small and dark. When I say ‘SWISH!’ bring up the picture and make it explode BIG and BRIGHT on the screen, while the old picture rapidly shrinks to a distant point and disappears. This can happen as quickly as 1…2…3…SWISH! Are you ready?
Repeat step 12 until the client immediately accesses the desired state. Make sure the client cannot access the old state/behavior.
