Response Options:

Doing OK

Yes, something came to mind. I've given it a name

Can't see anything

No, I can't see anything relevant. Let's end off this session, and maybe try another module to take some charge off the situation

No, I can't see anything relevant. Let's try a different situation

Notes:

ACW instructions

There are 9 steps [6 PaulsRobot steps] to doing dual Ho'oponopono:
  1. [Step 1] Noticing the non-optimum or omitted condition or situation you are connected to.
  2. [Step 2] Name the non-optimum or omitted condition or situation you are connected to.
  3. [Step 3] Ask: "Is there anything you are doing that is contributing to or agreeing to that (named non-optimum or omitted condition or situation)?"
  4. [Step 3] Usually what comes to view is an area of resistance – a massy, low-mood-level condition or situation.
  5. . . .

Different step numbers

The PaulsRobot step numbers aren't always the same as Alan's. It wouldn't work to make two separate pages out of his steps 3 and 4, for instance.

Can't see anything

If you have looked carefully and can't see anything you are doing to contribute to the situation, then there are two options:

Keep the same situation

End the session. Maybe try to take some charge off the situation using a different module. Maybe Mega, as that provides a one-stop-shop to all the possible modules. Aim at coming back to Pono later and trying again.

Abandon the situation

Just dump it and try with a different situation, or maybe even a restatement of the original one.
