Bring to their conscious awareness what the message is most likely about. Let them decide if they agree with you, or if not - they can state their own analysis of what it might be about.Reduce the fear, increase the passion and the desire for a positive outcome.Lose the value of the story. Mess with their stories: change the wording, lose the exaggeration, make them doubt/question the story or storyteller, make it a smaller problem, update the lack of relevance to NOW (chiseled shoulder, shattered ankle, the abuser is no longer alive).Ask them if they want to carry out the action they are being warned about, or not. They get to choose, and tell the unconscious that this is their WILL and now they have chosen what they want to do, the pain message has been understood and therefore, no longer has any purpose.You can make bargains on the basis that “if they consciously agree to do this, will you, the unconscious, do this …. for them”. For instance, we get people to agree to listen to their body and take notice of when to stop doing something that may be harming them. We then use that to bargain with the unconscious to release them from their current pain.To solve the problem – resolve the emotion.The client may need to “make up their mind” (Clear Intent). Confusion cannot be acted upon.
