Many NLP techniques use alteration or mapping across of sub-modalities in order to elicit change in internal perception. The content of what we see, as well as how and where we see it, makes a difference in how we respond to it emotionally.
This concept goes even deeper into our reaction to sub-modalities. What we see in our "minds eye" can also effect internal and external auditory, along with what we feel kinesthetically both tactily (touch), and proprioceptively (visceral) for the imprinted event. In other NLP techniques we begin with an image and change sub-modalities to create a new experience, often just guessing at what sub-modality change will be the difference that makes a difference. By using the Hemispheric Integration model we are accessing the different sub-modalities that already make a difference for the individual explorer automatically.

9 Steps to Establish Rapport & Ecology for Working Together
By Allen C. Sargent
The following is a process called The Hemispheric Eye Model Foreground-Background, first introduced at the NLP World Health Conference at the University of Santa Cruz in June 1997. By doing this exercise you will be useful and powerful in your life.
As a coach and a guide, you will be able to use these steps to help establish rapport and ecology.
Step 1:
Explain and demonstrate the current external dominant eye. This step shows that there is a difference, and will assist in determining the internal dominant eye.
Step 2:
Have Explorer think of a challenging person with whom they would like to have a more resourceful initial internal response or reaction. Example: Supervisor, coworker, relative or neighbor. To begin with I suggest you pick a moderate example - a five on a scale of one to ten.
Step 3:
Elicit the Explorer's sub-modalities paying particular attention to:
Visual - associated or dissociated, clarity, color, movie or still picture, panoramic or framed, size and location.
Auditory - internal and external, volume, location and content.
Kinesthetic - tactile, proprioseptive, and emotional evaluation.
Guide calibrates external cues, checking carefully for ecology.
Step 4:
Say to Explorer: "Get a sense of which internal eye you're seeing that picture with. " Note response. After response guide says, "After checking inside and in a way that is just right for you, shift your internal dominant eye to the opposite eye so that you will be seeing that person now with a new perspective."
Guide note any change in external cues.
Step 5:
Elicit any differences in sub-modalities, paying close attention to any shift in emotional response.
Step 6:
Identify which picture the explorer wants to leave foreground, and which to leave background. Leaving one of the pictures background balances ecological issues.
Step 7:
Assist Explorer in establishing foreground-background by asking them "What would make that picture stand out?" Often changing color and intensity or size will make the difference.
Test for response and adjust as appropriate.
Step 8:
Check to see what follow up work is needed.
Doing this process may allow other issues to surface such as belief changes or re-imprinting.
These may be dealt with at a later time.
Step 9:
Future pace the new choice the Explorer now has to adjust their Hemispheric Integration.

Freedom from Food Compulsion
Before you chastise yourself for "lack of will power", consider this. Did you know that these seemingly irresistible cravings may not have anything to do with the food itself? As many people who struggle to lose weight and/or eat healthfully only to succumb to self sabotaging behavior know, the problem is often not the diet itself, so much as the underlying emotional issues that sabotage our motivation and choices. You've probably heard the phrase, "It's not what you're eating, it's what's eating you."
Often, the food is a representation of some other issue that has mistakenly been hooked together by the brain as a substitute for what we truly need in order to take care of ourselves. This association essentially buries the real cause and covers it by creating a food compulsion. People might go through their entire lives experiencing both the unpleasant effects of the compulsion as well as the limitation of the underlying issue, never able to feel free to live the life they desire.
Luckily, there is a process that will help. Developed by Al & Marilyn Sargent, the Anchors Away Process gives you a whole brain perspective, leaving you with complete choice about having the food item, or not, so there is no feeling of deprivation or loss. This gentle and amazingly quick process can free you to experience your life without the limitations that reacting inappropriately to the environment can inflict.
Stop letting food run your life! RePower Your Self!
