I’m not eating feathers.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\nHow repulsive, obviously they lacked the big picture on plucking the chicken before you cook it.\u00a0 If you look up the word “grotesque” in the dictionary, this\u00a0chicken wing\u00a0could be there.\u00a0 I didn’t even want to touch this thing, but I had to, to toss it into the garbage can.\u00a0 I’m not eating THAT!!\u00a0 Ick, and yick!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
In my Neuro-Linguistic Programming work with clients “ick and yick” can be useful.\u00a0 People come into my office wanting to stop smoking.\u00a0 People come into my office wanting weight loss, which means, behaviorally,\u00a0 eating less\u00a0 to no sweets, pastries, cookies, chocolate, candy of all varieties, brownies, twinkies, donuts, ice cream, sugary sodas, french fries, potato chips and other carb-laden, junky processed foods that pack on the poundage on the body.\u00a0 I can help with that!\u00a0 Ick and yick finds a home.<\/p>\n
When I was a kid my mom tried to make me eat liver.\u00a0 It’s a nightmarish recollection.\u00a0 I hate liver.\u00a0 As an adult, I would never choose to eat liver, because it’s horrendously repulsive, in looks, taste, smell, in every way invented.\u00a0\u00a0 My response to the thought of liver is this:\u00a0 “get it away from me!\u00a0 No way in hell is that thing going into my mouth!”\u00a0 Like that chicken wing yesterday.<\/p>\n
With NLP we can take this feeling “get it away from me, ” capture it, and attach it to anything, where it’s useful to do so.\u00a0 We can attach it to chocolate.\u00a0 To cigarettes.\u00a0 To brownies.\u00a0 To anything.\u00a0 If you don’t like it, you’re not going to eat it, or smoke it.\u00a0 This is called “aversion” anchoring.\u00a0 It’s another piece of the work, and it helps!\u00a0 On the flip of away from, I create good feelings that people prefer over cravings, things like calm, happy, joy, satisfied, healthy.\u00a0 Towards something wonderful and away from something disgusting, now we have a propulsion system of change.<\/p>\n
I walk the talk, and use the tools for my own success.\u00a0 I took that chicken wing, and captured the revulsion, and now that’s how I feel about chocolate brownies (my former weakness).\u00a0 I’m not buying or eating any brownies today.\u00a0 None.\u00a0 Not interested.\u00a0 I’m not eating any brownies tomorrow, either.\u00a0 Nor the next day.\u00a0 When will I want brownies?\u00a0 Possibly never.\u00a0 And I’m OK with that.<\/p>\n
This is called taking control of your life, and it’s a good thing!<\/p>\n
Warm Regards,
I bought some chicken yesterday from a local supermarket deli.\u00a0 Got it home, and opened the packaging.\u00a0 Found THIS!\u00a0 Yikes.\u00a0 Battered and fried feathers. I’m not eating feathers. How repulsive, obviously they lacked the big picture on plucking the chicken before you cook it.\u00a0 If you look up the word “grotesque” in the dictionary, this\u00a0chicken […] <\/p>\n
