- [Howard] So now we can do some breakouts
and practise this, these techniques.
And you have the handout,
and in the handout, there's three cases.
So you can choose which one you want.
One case is light touch,
like Esther and I did, light touch.
And just the person you're working with can
act, pretend that light touch bothers them.
You can have them imagine light touch.
Or then the other, next case is firm pressure,
like up here or wherever, firm pressure.
And if a firm pressure bothers them,
then you can have them imagine firm pressure.
And if imagine firm pressure bothers,
then you can help them to calm their brain,
do some simple affirmations,
see if they can calm their brain.
If anyone needs the brain as a prop,
you can borrow, borrow it.
And then you can have them do these simple affirmations.
Calming, soothing, imagining,
imagining the touch with kindness,
and then doing the actual touch,
light touch or doing the firm pressure
with the same affirmations.
Does that make sense? Is that clear?
And then, or the third case is with a triggering situation,
like a head, I can't remember what it is, what it says.
Is it a head turning, the third one? Neck pain?
- [Participant] Lower cervical.
- [Howard] Bending or turning the head, something like that.
So then you can imagine the movement
and see if the imagine movement causes an issue.
