EmoTrance In Perspective
by Silvia Hartmann
When I was learning about NLP Neurolinguistic Programming, there
was an ongoing joke, or perhaps it was ongoing PAIN, I'm not so sure - namely
the question as to "WHAT *IS* NLP?!"
We used to spend ages making up these preposterous explanations,
and the reason why they were so preposterous was that we really couldn't come up
with a simple sentence to explain to someone "off the street" just what it was,
why it was useful and why they would be better off AFTER attending an NLP
seminar than they would have been before.
So I'm hoping and praying that it will be easier to explain what
EmoTrance is.
I'd say it is a method to brighten people's spirits.
That's a good elevator pitch, don't you think?
You meet someone and they ask what you do, and you say, "Oh, I'm
an EmoTrance master."
They say, rather cautiously, "What's THAT?"
And you say, "I brighten people's spirits. I make them happy."
That'll get you at least a laugh and then another question, "HOW
do you do that?"
At which point we could say, "Well, you know when people are
depressed? Weight of the world on their shoulders, burdens on their back, an old
love pain pressing the joy out of their heart? We soften that and make it flow
away. It's easy if you know how. Feels incredible, too ..."
And it is - EmoTrance IS incredibly easy, amazingly simple and
it really DOES brighten people's spirits, makes them feel better in the moment
and also more long term, about themselves as they begin to understand that what
used to trouble them wasn't their fault, it was an injury that had not healed
properly and gave them jip and many symptoms.
The reason that EmoTrance is so easy to do and so easy to
explain is because it comes out of a different world view. A different paradigm,
if you want, a different way of thinking about how the universe works, and you
could say a MUCH MORE REALISTIC way.
When things are right, they ARE easy and straightforward, like
round wheels and such.
A thing like an egg, or our round wheel, is robust. It WORKS and
it does exactly what it is supposed to do, every time.
These things should always be our inspiration and guideline
towards which we should put all our creative endeavours and our scientific
explorations - to find something as elegant and perfect as an egg and that
performs all its functions as well as that, too.
But EmoTrance and all its many absolutely fascinating
techniques, tools, and its veritably ENDLESS applications in every aspect of
human life, work, play, interaction is really just the tip of the iceberg.
With a true paradigm shift, EVERYTHING changes, and EVERYTHING
becomes open for innovation, forward movement and improvement once again, even
things that we thought could never change at all.
EmoTrance does not come out of nowhere, or exists in a vacuum;
it is simply an APPLICATION of a principle based on the Enchanted World - a
living universe which we were born to partake in FULLY and for which we are
amazingly well adapted, well designed and supposed to function in perfect
harmony with.
The more we humans learn to "clear the doors of our perception"
and the more of the old cages of entrainment we can let go off, the more we can
see, the more we can understand and the more we can DO with all of that.
EmoTrance itself is a tool, a simple structure to create
EXPERIENCES and FEEDBACK from true reality in such a way that we can
conceptualise it, understand it, talk about it and INTEGRATE what we've learned
into our lives - all the time, and everywhere.
It is a doorway through which people can find their way BACK to
the enchanted universe, which made us and of which we are an integral part in
all ways.
This isn't dogma, nor is it speculation; it's a simple fact and
actually occurring REALITY.
We've got so very much to learn - to re-learn, to un-learn and
to discover for the very first time.
Do remember that EmoTrance is just a stepping stone, a device to
help us learn about our own true universe in a very personal fashion.
Use it, enjoy it and most of all, remember that it is ONLY THE
BEGINNING.

corner in the lower stair well where EmoTrance made its first appearance, jotted
down during a conversation with Nicola Quinn as "The TE Pattern - Transforming
Emotions", around 2001.
