Yes.
T: Can you treat that structure?
S: Yes.
T: Please treat the structure and, when it falls apart, tag and treat the memory elements in the correct order.
S: [No response]
T: Is there a part that wants to be treated now?
S: Yes.
T: Subconscious, please treat the part.
S: Yes.
T: [Done] Subconscious, can you treat the structure now?
S: Yes.
T: [Wait] Subconscious, are you finished?
S: Yes.
T: Please do a Massive Change History and everything.
S: Yes.
T: Are there beliefs that support depression?
S: Yes.
T: Please treat the beliefs supporting depression so they are false and compose and strengthen new, self-empowering beliefs.
S: Yes.
T: [Done] Have you finished treating the cause of depression?
S: Yes.
Now I ask the person if the intensity of his or her depression has changed. When there is a lingering issue or some depression, I problem-solve (troubleshoot) and treat the issue causing the depression. It usually takes several sessions to treat an easy case of depression. Sometimes, it takes a lot of problem-solving and a number of sessions.
7. Dreams
I assume dreams are caused by the intrusion of past experiences or of experiences from the preceding day. I believe the content and emotions of the dreams are often independent and have to be treated separately. The dream is the personality’s attempt to organize the disorganized information and emotions. I ask the subconscious to treat the content and emotions in the correct order.
T: Subconscious, do you remember the scary dream about bull-frogs that she had last week?
S: Yes.
T: Subconscious, do we have to treat the content or emotions of the dream first? Content?
S: Yes.
T: Please treat the content in the dream.
S: Yes.
T: [Wait] Are you done?
S: Yes.
T: Please treat the emotions in the dream.
S: Yes.
Y: [Wait] Are you done?
S: Yes.
T: Subconscious, do we have to do a Massive Change History or any other intervention?
S: No.
T: Are we finished treating the bullfrog dream?
S: Yes.
The treatment of simple dreams usually doesn’t cause noticeable changes in experience. With a recurrent dream, there are probably parts or significant trauma memories causing the dream. Problem-Solving uncovers the source of the dream and, after treatment, the recurrent dream, in most cases, never occurs again.
8. Physical problems
A physical problem like muscle pain, headache, or any other pain can often be treated with Process Healing. It is important to see your family doctor to ascertain if there is any medical problem causing the pain. When pain or tension is learned in muscle memory, sometimes it becomes a chronic condition. The muscle memory can be treated with Process Healing to relax the muscle. This will reduce or eliminate the physical pain.
T: Subconscious, do you see the cause of that physical pain?
S: Yes.
T: Subconscious, is muscle tension the cause of that physical pain?
S: Yes.
T: Please treat that muscle memory.
Some problem-solving may be needed to find the cause of the pain, but in many cases this intervention is all you need to treat a physical problem. I have had patients with lifelong knots in their backs who are now free of pain after we treated the parts and memory structures. A little problem-solving, in most cases, results in some relief or the elimination of the physical problem.
Summary
I wrote the following chapters in a way that may be unusual but will help you understand and use Process Healing. What is unusual in the upcoming chapters is that you will read a conversation between the therapist (you) and the patient’s (your) subconscious. There are several objectives for doing this.
First, I wrote the communication between the therapist and the subconscious in detail to show how Process Healing is done. Some of the description is repetitive; so, as you learn, you will begin to expect what the therapist is going to say. This anticipation will suggest that you are learning this treatment approach and are becoming ready to do Process Healing in a way similar to the way I do it. By the time you finish the book, the interventions used in treatment and problem-solving will easily occur to you.
Second, I wrote the chapters in this way to give a feeling for the flexibility and creativity fostered by this procedure. I have included many examples of problem-solving while treating many unusually complex issues. I hope my example of fumbling around while problem-solving will help you be flexible and creative.
Third, the repetition will also give you a feeling for the chaos process in the brain without talking about chaos theory. This is important to help you learn how to problem-solve when you find a complex process. Problem-Solving with this theory involves a conceptual shift (see Appendix IV). The repetition will help you make the transition from your present view of behavior change to one involving the functions of the brain and memories. When you grasp the concepts of the theory, this knowledge will allow you to be intuitive with the theory to help you solve complex treatment barriers.
Finally, this book is a self-treatment book. I wrote this book in a way that makes it easy for you to do Process Healing on yourself. You won’t have to figure out how to do it. In a sense, it is self-treatment in a script format. By just reading Chapter 3, your subconscious will usually learn the treatment process. The remaining chapters will enrich your skills or give therapists tools for complex patients. I give the interventions in a linear style that will help you fine-tune your own personality. Even if the method doesn’t work for you, you can use it to work with other people.
It is my belief that there is no danger in reading this book. If you have mental issues that could be disturbed by this text, your subconscious and
