EMBEDDING AND META-STATES

A common question for NLP people when first learning the Meta-States Model
is, "Isn't this very similar to the collapsing of anchors?"  The answer is
No, it is not.   In fact, it is the very opposite of "the collapsing
anchors" (or states) in NLP.  Instead of collapsing or reducing th
neurological energy of two incompatible states, in Meta-States you transcend
(rise above) the state you are experiencing and include it as a member of
another state.  In this transcending and including you put the other state
at a higher position (level) to the first state.  This embeds the first
state within the next higher one making it a member of it.

You transcend your fear (state1) to calmness (state2) so that now you
experience a new gestalt- calm fear.  Lots of things happen simultaneously
when you do this.  Here are a few of them:

           Fear (state1) is tempered, textured, and qualified by calmness
(state2).

           Fear (state1) becomes a member of the class of calm (state2).

           Calm becomes the frame-of-reference for fear.

           Calm becomes the belief and the value of the person expressing
fear.

           Calm becomes the internal context of fear.

           Calm becomes a belief about fear, "I believe I can stay calm
when fear is triggered."

           Calm becomes an identity, an understanding, a permission, a
memory, an imagination, and the other one-hundred meta-levels.

           Calm becomes a self-organizing attractor in the person's
neuro-semantic system.

In other words, there are lots of things happening all at once!  By
embedding the original experience (state of fear) inside of calm-fear is
situated in an internal context which changes the quality of the fear
itself.  In one swell move, system change has occurred sending out ripple
effects throughout the person's life.  Talk about a transformational
process!  This certainly explains why many Neuro-Semanticists get so excited
about the ease and power of meta-stating change.  By transcending and
including, a skilled Trainer or Meta-Coach can set up a self-organizing
process that completely renews the mind and personality.

Now the astonishing fact is-everything is embedded in something.  Now it
becomes a matter of asking what any particular thing is embedded in.  What
is your fear embedded in?  What is your anger embedded in?  Your compassion?
Your passion?  Is it embedded within frames that support ou so that you can
live out of your very best potentials?  After all, that's the key to living
a great and joyous life.

Suppose your anger is embedded in fear and shame.  What would that be like?
This is what many with "anger problems" experience.  Years ago when I did
"anger control" with the Department of Corrections in the State of
Colorado-that's what I regularly and consistently found.  I would ask the
men, "What do you think about your anger?  Do you like your anger, or
dislike your anger?  How well do you accept your anger?"  None of them liked
their anger.  Most were feared their anger.  They feared that they could not
control their anger.  Nor did they want to accept their anger.  They feared
that if they accepted their anger, they would not be able to control
themselves.  They said that they would explode into violent behavior which
would then get them into more trouble.  And because they were not able to
control their anger, once they failed to control it, they would feel ashamed
of their anger.  That describes the problem with anger being embedded in
fear and shame.  Ironically, the fear and the shame made their anger even
more dangerous, more explosive.

Conversely, suppose you embed your anger in acceptance, calmness, and
respect.  With acceptance, you are then able to embrace your anger as "a
normal human emotion."  It is just anger.  With calmness, you are able to
slow things down so you can actually think and reflect while you are upset.
This puts your anger under your control.  Then when something triggers you
to feel anger, something that violates your values and expectations, you are
able to notice it and are able to monitor when it increases and when it
decreases.  Now you can turn your anger up and down in terms of intensity,
as appropriate to the situation.  With respect, you are able to communicate
the anger to others without threatening them, but in a way that honors them
as persons.

Embedding, as a meta-stating process, is powerful.  It enables you to
texture the quality of a state so that the experience enhances your life.
When you are aware of embedding, you can flush out the old frames that your
experiences are currently embedded within so that you can transform things
as appropriate.

Now given this, you can probably see why ... even attempting to model an
experience ... without understanding and using the Meta-States Model, will
give you a very limited mapping.

New Edition of the Matrix Model

2016   Third Edition

THE MATRIX MODEL

Copies of the 3rd Edition of the Matrix Model have just been delivered to
Neuro-Semantic Publications ... and are available.  This completely updated
version is in a newly sized book with a new cover.

Back Cover of the book:     

You, like all of us, were born in a Matrix.  You didn't create that Matrix,
but you were embedded in it and absorbed it.  Now many years later, are you
ready to Wake Up to the Matrix?  Would you like to master your Matrix so
that it enhances your life and enables you to actualize your highest visions
and values in your best performances?

The Matrix Model is the premier systems model of Neuro-Semantics and enables
you to address the essential human questions about identity (who am I?),
competence (what can I do?) direction (what can I and should I do?), meaning
(what's the meaning of my life?), etc. 

The Matrices Model focuses on how you create and hold your frames of mind
which makes you a meaning-maker par excellent.  It enables you to "follow a
person's energy through his system" and model the structure of his
experiences.

If you're ready to take the red pill and train yourself to become the master
of your own Matrix, this book is for you.

"This is the most revolutionary model since NLP and Meta-States.  This book
organizes all of NLP and Neuro-Semantics into one very practical model.  The
Matrix Model gives you a diagnostic tool for analyzing problems and
selecting NLP and Neuro-Semantic patterns. There is nothing like this
anywhere in NLP literature."

Dr. Bob G. Bodenhamer
