NLP Parts integration using EFT


The ‘Parts Integration’ model is a development of an earlier NLP process called Visual Squash. If you have two parts with separate intentions, they're almost guaranteed to conflict and the Parts model can be very effective in dealing with the presented problem. The result is that this procedure connects the two opposing parts together and achieves resolution of the presented problem.

This model is easily used with EFT as well. Find out what the client feels torn about or the internal conflict they have.

Identify the two conflicting parts. The key is to use the conflict to release the tension between the two parts.

Conflicting parts or Sabotaging beliefs often begin with “I want to’ or I don’t want to…” and are charged with resistance or desire. The client feels like he is being pulled in opposite directions simultaneously.

Focus on both parts; the desire and resistance creating the conflict. The secret is to de-energize the two conflicting sides at the same time. Create strong and precise visual, auditory and kinesthetic anchors for both parts.

For example if the client has a conflict about ‘chocolate’, create the EFT set-up statement and tap on the desire to eat chocolate. Really emphasize the desiring part by describing the look, feel, taste, smell and touch of chocolate. Rate the desire and tap on it till it subsides. Second create the set-up statement for the opposite part not wanting ‘chocolate’. Again emphasize this part as much as possible. Tap and rate it.

Finally, use the reminder statement from both the conflicting parts and tap on the EFT points alternating between the two statements. ‘I love chocolate…..’ and ‘I don’t want the extra weight ……..’ Collapse both anchors simultaneously.

When successfully applied, the client will let you know that both sides of the conflict feel neutral. In other words the anchors have collapsed. There is no strong push-pull feeling in either direction. Collapsing the two opposing anchors will bring about new behaviors as neither of the old behavior is powerful enough to dominate in the persons suite of behaviors.
