|---|---|
| 3 ways in which acupuncture skills are useful | Patient rapport, better observation, assessing inappropriate emotion |
| Why rapport generates trust | Patient feels you understand them |
| 3 things determined by the depth of rapport | Quality of information given by patient, quality & depth of change patient experiences, accurate assessment of emotion |
| What matching is | Adjusting behaviour / expressions to be similar to your patient |
| What matching does | Creates unconcious 'agreements' > builds trust > increases patient receptiveness & responsiveness |
| 10 areas to match | Posture, breath, tempo, representational system, phrase & word, gesture, voice, values, mental filters, language patterns & metaphors |
| 4 areas of posture to match | lower body, upper body, head, face |
| Stages of emotion testing | 1-rapport, 2-opportunity, 3-emotion choice, 4-setting up, 5-delivery, 6-observation, 7-notation |
| The test of rapport | Extent to which someone will allow you to lead / direct them |
| What the structure of an emotion refers to | Factors that need to be present for the patient to naturally experience an emotion |
| 2 things required for good 'delivery' in an emotion test | Geniune & congruent expression of feeling from tester, be short & stop |
| 3 types of responses to emotion tests | Normal, inappropriate, hiding another emotion |
| 2 things to notate in emotion testing | Type of test, judgement of patient response |
| Emotion testing is done . . . | Because you don't know, when you are in charge, in the patient's best interest |

| How breathing is matched indirectly | Matcher moves in sync with breathing (eg pressure of hand on patient's arm) |
| What a key gesture is | Repetitive, comes at moments of excitement / stress, connected with significant recurring inner states |
| 2 important things when matching a key gesture | Be respectful: key gestures are powerful to match because they connect with significant internal states, match key gestures in their context |
| The intention of matching a key gesture | Deepen rapport |

| Metal CSEO | White, weep, grief, rotten |

| An alternative to assessing Grief | Assess respect by articulating a Personal Inner Quality |

| The essence of congruent personal warmth | "I like you. It's nice to be with you." |
| How to make focus on a joyous activity a good test | Question the patient so they feel like they're engaged in the activity |
| How joy lessens naturally | Once experiencing joy and stimulus is gone, joy recedes slowly in its own time |
| Inappropriate lessening of joy | Joy disappears suddenly and drops into sadness |

| What 'future-fantasied safety' is | A safe situation imagined when the 'threat' no longer exists |
| What we need to give genuine reassurance | Relevant information |
| 3 distinctions with respect to Reassurance information | What the patient knows, what you know, what other info may be available |
