New Orleans Flexibility Drill

This is a 3-person exercise

This technique is useful for eliminating negative states while installing positive states in a "live" setting where the subject is actually doing the activity. For example, during public speaking or cold calling.

1. Have the client pick a problem state – a person, place, or thing that that consistently triggers a negative state.
2. Stack several resourceful anchors for the client to successfully handle the problem situation.
3. Tests the anchor to make sure it’s powerful.
4. Have the client do the behavior live
   If a live situation is not possible, get a group of volunteers to reenact the situation. In this case, give a detailed description of the situation and have them coach the other people involved so they can reproduce the specific behaviors they need to role-play so they can most-accurately reproduce the stimulus.
5. Trigger the client’s resource anchor briefly as the client begins the behavior. Calibrate on the client and fire off the resource anchor if they fall out of a positive, resourceful state. If the client begins to revert to an unresourceful state, fire the anchor again.
6. Continue until the Client stays completely resourceful and you no longer need to fire off the anchor.
7. Now the stimulus that previously triggered the response triggers a powerful, resourceful response, instead.

What has occurred now is that the external stimulus that previously triggered an unresourceful response in Client now triggers a resourceful response (related to the resources provided by the stacked anchor in Step #2).
