Example using Matrix Reimprinting
So what does a Matrix Reimprinting session look like?
We work together online, so you would find a comfortable place to sit where you feel safe and not overheard. I guide you at every step through the process. You can either talk aloud during the process or have the conversations in your mind, this way you can share only as much as you are comfortable with. A Matrix Reimprinting session last for 1 hour.
An example session may look like this:
We would start with some deep breathing to relax and centre you.
Together we come up with your safety strategy.
After briefly talking about the issue you come up with, we would then do some tapping on the acupressure points whilst I ask you some simple questions.
This would lead to a sensation in your body which we then get to know a little more.
We explore previous times you felt like this and then choose one of those memories to work with.
In your imagination you see your ‘younger self’ (ECHO) who you introduce yourself to. It is important that you do not become your ‘younger self’ so we always make sure that you are disassociated from them and act as a facilitator in their healing.
In your imagination you would tap on your ‘younger you’ helping them move through the ‘freeze’ stress response.
We would then listen (witness) how your ‘younger you’ feels, and ask them what resources they need, this could be physical things, someone else to be there or something totally made up.
We ask them what belief was made that day.
We would ask what actions your ‘younger you’ would like to take. Maybe do some more tapping either on them or someone else that is in the memory.
When your ‘younger you’ feels complete we move forward to Reimprinting a new memory bringing in positive attributes and a new positive belief.
We engage all of our 5 senses and bring in colour which is the language of the subconscious, Reimprinting this new belief.
Then as homework, you will Reimprint this new belief, making new positive neural pathways.
How many sessions do I need?
This varies from client to client and depends on how open a client’s subconscious mind is and whether there are any ‘protective part’ playing their role.
Matrix Reimprinting is such a powerful technique and it still amazes me how quickly my client’s symptoms can improve even after just one or two session.
Matrix Reimprinting is one of my techniques that I include in my Wellbeing Package of Care, however if you would only like to do Matrix Reimprinting with no Coaching or other therapies I would recommend starting off with 3 sessions, to give yourself time to trust in the process and to go a little deeper each time. Of course you can also book single sessions if you prefer.
I would recommend having a Matrix Reimprinting session every 4 to 6 weeks.
