From Impatience and Anxiety in Relationships to Calm Understanding and Creativity

Michael Blair • May 19, 2020

After it had spun long enough she was directed to blow it up which she did successfully.

Sally, not her real name, came suffering from anxiety and impatience with her husband and her children and herself and with life in general. The dominant word was impatience. She found that this feeling was felt in her chest area and she was able to pull it out of your chest upon direction and visualize it in front of her as a black rock. She then noticed the specific spinning direction of that black rock and was successful reversing that spin at a very high rate of speed much like a tornado or a high-speed washing machine. After it had spun long enough she was directed to blow it up which she did successfully. She then vacuumed up the dust with mother nature’s vacuum cleaner imaginatively and began to look for gifts such as feelings or symbols that would come in the placement of what had been blown up. She discovered the gift of calm, the gift of invigoration and was able to identify a bright rainbow, and the gift of clarity. She was able to breathe all of those gifts in through her chest so that they integrated from the top of her head to her toes and sink into the muscle and she felt those gifts in the chest and throughout her body. When this was done we did a little test on the original trigger and it simply did not trigger as it had before. Instead she had the gifts copy of calm and clarity. Her old response pattern and reactivity was turned into calm and peaceful creativity.

We then engaged in a time line activity by having her take these gifts back to the youngest girl she could represent and invited the younger girl to breath in through her chest and/or download these same resources into the memory as the young child. She went back to that time with the youg girl and then took her by the hand and walked gradually from year-to-year quickly up the timeline to the present time at which point she was able to imagine the grown-up young lady integrate into her existing self. Then we had her visualize out into the future five years with these gifts in place and look back to the present as if she could represent how these gifts helped and/or will have helped over the course of the next five years. She completed this task successfully and came back to present time whereupon she was able to clearly see and feel a very bright future ahead of her and expressed an enthusiastic shift or transformation.

Blair Counseling and Coaching - Trauma Conversion Therapy is a highly effective treatment
By Michael Blair 27 Sep, 2020
Trauma Conversion Therapy, TCT, is not conversion therapy. TCT is a highly effective approach to treat past and recent trauma. Like EMDR, this approach can be used to treat those with PTSD or dissociative disorders. Through a process similar to EMDR, trauma can convert into a memory that doesn't hold you hostage.

Blair Counseling and Coaching - Why exiles often lead to addiction
By Michael Blair - LMFT | TCT | CBT| NLP 30 Jul, 2020
Did you know the root of your addiction is likely due to the core beliefs you developed as a child? These negative beliefs connect to deep emotional wounds that invoke raw emotions. In order to avoid these feelings, your inner parts work together both proactively and reactively. Thus, along the way, you developed an addiction as it seems to provide a sense of relief or escape from your exiles.
