This is a complete script for how to the NLP parts integration /Visual Squash. This can be one of the most powerful Neuro Linguistic Programming patterns available. This script i wrote a number of years ago now, but it’s still pretty complete for the beginner to intermediate NLP’er.
PARTS INTEGRATION
The super mega happy lucky jackpot version
- Elicit part
It is important to get the precise part, in the clients’ own words. Also be SURE it is a problem by asking “..and how is THAT a problem for you?” repeatedly – chunk down to specific problem. - VAK representation of Part
Always try for personification.
”and if that image was someone you know, WHO would that look like now?”
{always go for personification of self –ie its me at 14years old looking sad – the result is way more powerful that a shape or an image etc]
“..and if that person had a weight..what would that feel like?”
”and if you were to HEAR it saying something to your now.. what would you HEAR it SAYING?”
- Elicit OPPOSITE part
“..and now I’d like the exact opposite part, the flipside of the coin, the completely opposite number, the part which that part is MOST in conflict with to come sit out on the other hand” (VAK part – as above)
3a) Elicit other parts (this has a powerful effect but I hardly ever use it, just doing the opposite part is usually enough to re-create wholness)
“…and now I’d like any other parts, that are not already part of the opposite part, that feel they are in significant conflict with the problem part to also come out and sit on the knees/float in the air..”(VAK parts- same as above)
3b) ASK the AGE of each of the parts.
- PROBLEM PART (must always start with the problem part)
“I’d now like to talk to part of you that [problem part] – the part of you that Looks like X at the age of X, the part of you that kind of feels [weight] as it sits there in your hand.. the part of you that said X to you…. That’s’ right…”
4a) realization of opposite part
”.. and I wonder if that part can now turn and look over at the other hand and I’m wondering if that part realises that there IS a part/s in which it is most in conflict with – I’m wondering if that part had realised that before now..?”
[no?] “.. that’s okay, is it okay to begin to really Notice THAT now?
- CHUNK UP to highest intention
Chunk up to highest intention as THIS boundry is what caused the part in the first place, when client loops, chunk 1-2 levels higher than that as the loop is generally the boundry. Generally the highest intentions possible are peace, love, wholeness and existence etc
” whats this parts’ highest intention for you…?”
”for what purpose…?”
”why does it want THAT for you?…”
”…and all of that for what purpose?…”
”…and having all that, what will that get for you?”
5b) [on leaving problem part and moving to next part]
”..and now I’d like to go over here and talk with part Y (opposite), and as I am talking with part Y, part X[problem part] can continue to think about and re-align with its original highest intentions for [clients name] and continue to consider even more ways to now happily, easily and effortlessly support [clients name] in achieving their goals and desires…”
6. Opposite Part Chunking
Chunk up the opposite part til you get the SAME WORD highest intention as the problem part.
6a) Chunk any other parts to same level
- Working Together [talking back to problem part]
”..did you notice that the other part/s has the same highest intention for you which is your A[highest intention]? – did they notice that?? – isn’t that interesting? – Did they both/all realise that they are both/all only really primarily concerned about achieving their highest intention for you now, which is your A?..”
”I wonder if They Can Notice That Now, that they both/all have the same highest intention for you, which is your A?..”
“…and I wonder if they realise that, by being in conflict, they’re keeping eachother from achieving their highest intention for you, which is your A? … and I wonder if both/all parts would be willing to work together now, to better achieve each of their highest intentions for you, which is your A…now?
- Exploring the other parts’ worlds’.
Allow each part to explore the other parts and learn from it.
tell me about what’s going on for you as (part X goes into part Y)
[then as client finishes telling you one or two things.. follow into this as long as its appropriate for context]
”..rapidly consciously and unconsciously learning all the learnings there is there to learn, all the positive learnings for [client’s name] all the positive learnings for [client’s name] and [name’s] future, LEARNING ALL THERE IS TO LEARN THERE AND STORING THEM IN THAT SPECIAL PLACE…all the positive learnings…NOW…and storing them ALL in that special place you use to store ALL such learnings, the learnings of which NOW…. will allow you NOW …to easily and effortlessly make the changes in [name’s] life that you’ve been so wanting to make now, haven’t you?… that’s right.. all THOSE positive learnings. LEARNING ALL THE WAYS IN WHICH you can work together to help [name] to achieve their goals of X …..very good, all the learnings…The ones that are making THOSE changes NOW… very good…”
- GROWING UP
“…and now with all those learnings, THAT knowledge, THAT information that you’ve stored in that special place you use for all such positive learnings, that make all those changes NOW that you’ve wanted to make for so long, I’m wondering how easily and effortlessly THOSE parts of you, of ages xx, yy and zz can GROW UP NOW, grow up now with all this information to your current age and current knowledge, leaving in the past, those things, those states, those emotions and those decisions in which it KNOWS needs to be left back there.. now, and access all the resources they need to from you’re unconscious to grow up from the ages xx, yy and zz to NOW, bringing with it all the positive things you’ve learned, all your new knowledge, new learnings, new intelligence and new maturity to support you in achieving your goals and your highest intention of X now in your life…..NOW… very good”
- USING OTHER PARTS RESOURCES
Have all the parts look at eachother and FEEL GOOD about eachother a
and FEEL GREAT about working together.
“ and I wonder if [problem part] can look at [part B] and see if it has any resources or attributes that it would like to have, that would better help it better achieve its highest intention for you, you which is your A?..”
[yes?] yes? it does, doesn’t it?..
”…and as you begin to realise, now, that you were once originally part of a larger whole that intended to work together, in harmony, to achieve your highest intention for [name], which is [name’s] A? – you can begin to see now that YOU ABSOLUTLY HAVE PERMISSION NOW, AGAIN, to do that PERFECTLY, and support eachother in achieving THAT highest intention NOW, by sharing THOSE resources that [part B] has that will help you in supporting [name] in achieving their goals ..and you can absorb those Now.”
“…that’s’ right.. rapidly and unconsciously learning, learning all the positive learnings now for [name] and [name’s] future… storing all those learnings in that special place you reserve for all such learnings, that MAKE THOSE CHANGES NOW…very good”
10a) Do this for all parts involved
(Conversationally)
” one of the great things about this processes’ is that, MOST people find that, for some reason, they unknowingly, start making connections at the unconscious level, that starts to create so many positive changes for them in their life in SO MANY areas now that they were not expecting to make them right now… that their whole life changes from ALL THE CHANGES YOU ARE MAKING NOW. – I love it, it’s a great process…. you are doing VERY WELL, you are good at this! – I wonder how many changes you’ll make after today?”
*** HANDS SHOULD BE MOVING TOGETHER BY NOW – if they are not, you did NOT chunk high enough on the intention. Something is wrong***
11. [upon noticing hands moving together]
**surprised tonality** ”Did you notice that? – I mean, you’re not doing that on purpose are you??”
[no] “..wow, I guess YOU ARE REALLY INTEGRATING, AND MAKING THOSE CHANGES NOW.. and as you continue to allow your hands to do as they want to do, to make those changes for you now, I wonder if they continue making those jerky movements towards eachother…or if it will be smooth?..”
[subconscious movements are normally very jerky]
12. INTEGRATE PARTS TOGETHER as one big whole if it hasn’t happened already.
”…and I wonder in which way these parts, as they have grown up completely now, haven’t they? ..would best like to integrate fully now, to make those changes…”
[note presuppositions]
12a) “…and if there is any other parts that would like to join in this integration please allow them to do this now…. Maybe you’d even like to throw in there a little of that part of you that REALLY likes to have fun and enjoy what you’re doing… and allow that to join into the integration now…very good”
13. BRING INTEGRATION INTO BODY
- bring into body, ask how unconscious would prefer to do that.
”…and take that complete integration RIGHT INSIDE, and fully integrate into the WHOLENESS… and as you do, feeling it integrate now, feel that feeling – make those changes rapidly and dramatically at the unconsciously level..now, feeling it penetrate through your entire being, right down to the cellular level…and to the atomic levels… and then feel it making THOSE changes right down, to the space between the atoms, even MAKING AMAZINGLY POSITIVE CHANGES FOR YOUR AND YOUR FUTURE THAT YOU DIDN’T EXPECT TO MAKE NOW, Making all THOSE changes now..…and really feel that amazingly beautiful, releasing, happy feeling vibrate out through your entire being & essence and continuing to radiate out ….really enjoying that..now…
14. BREAKSTATE
[clap hands once] “..You don’t smell popcorn do you?” (Laughing)
15. TEST
”so, I’m sorry, What was the problem again??”
[if done properly they won’t be able to remember or won’t be able to re-state it the same way again”
(I can’t remember) – “That’s RIGHT, YOU CAN’T!…very good, in fact you’ll completely forget about that old problem now”
(I dunno) – “That’s RIGHT, YOU DON’T!…very good, in fact you’ll completely forget about that old problem now”
16. FUTURE PACE
”…close your eye’s and now imagine stepping out to some indefinite time in the future, where in the past, that old problem may have hindered you or held you back and notice what happens for you now.. (do this twice)
(and as the third one)
”..and now as you imagine stepping one last time to some indefinite time in the future, where in the past, that old problem may have hindered you or held you back, notice how things have changed for you now, notice how amazing you feel about it now (do all VAK), notice that this change you made BACK THEN was a cause-set-in-motion – RIPPLING OUT – compounding in a kind of massive snowballing effect and notice what IS for you now, isn’t that perfect? – great!
” okay, and come right back to now, and right back into the room. Good work! .. very good”
