The benefits of software based NLP Swish treatment
Problem: Visual NLP techniques such as the Swish technique are reliant upon the imagination of images and concurrently associating feelings with the images. The problem is that many people find imagining images and feelings difficult at best. Also, given the nature of the technique it is very easy for therapists and patients to lose their place in the process. Solution: Our software based approach resolves these problems by providing images on-screen that can reduce the need to imagine and enables easier generation of images after treatment. Sound effects help feelings to be associated into more easily and more rapidly. On-screen instructions guide you through the process to keep treatment on-track. We provide a generic solution with preset images and enable you to provide your own images / sounds if required.
Visual NLP Swish pattern techniqueFor sufferers: The NLP Swish pattern helps you to change your state of mind - it helps you to move from one mood state into another quickly and easily. Change negatives into positives, convert anxiety into calm. For therapists: This multimedia software approach helps you by showing your patient's exactly what they should imagine. Your patients' can then continue the process in their imagination or you can use the software to guide them through the process. Detail: The NLP Map Swish Technique maps the submodalies of something that is wanted into the submodalities of something that is not wanted. Both are then subjected to a further submodality shift with only the positive image returning. (This is commonly known as the Swish pattern). The technique can be used to install new behaviour / change thinking / change mood states. (It was originally developed as a primary intervention for PTSD by hypnotherapists before being reinvented by the NLP Movement!)
Visual Swish LiteSwish (Lite) contains two versions within the same product. A basic version and slightly more advanced version. Swish Lite Basic: The "lite basic" version is a simple implementation of the Swish technique with static images and sounds. The user is guided through the use of the technique via on-screen instructions. Swish Lite Advanced: A new minor version of Swish Lite was released on 1/May/06 to enable external images to be specified if required rather than using the defaults. This satisfies the needs of more advanced users that want simplicity and flexibility. The PC version module includes German / English language support. Swish Lite for PCs now includes 16 sample problem images (blood, bridge, dentists, dog, driving, flying, frog, heights / stairway, mouse, payphone, rat, snake, social dinner party, tarantula, vomiting actual, vomiting nausea), 8 sample solution images (beach, bear, clouds, duck, flowers, kitten, mountains, sunset), and 7 sample settings files (Blood Clouds.vswi, Bridge Beach.vswi, Driving Beach.vswi, Mouse Kitten.vswi, Rodent TeddyBear.vswi, Sider Duck.vswi, Snake TeddyBear.vswi)
Advanced version: User selected images: In the example below the images selected were of a hypodermic needle and a beach (movement has been emulated):
