Core (Lucy): Reach and Withdraw - Reach (1)

AUDIO: "OK. Reach to your topic."

Response Options:

Going OK

• I reached to my topic - let's keep going with this

• I would like to address my topic with 6-direction commands now

Other

• Shutting down | Don't want to continue | Realization

Write on Report:

__:__am/pm R & W (At start of Reach & Withdraw)

Mark an "R" or "W" each time you carry out the command; a "y" etc. for any yawns etc. as they occur; and note any comments you wish to make. For example:

1:13pm R W R W y R y W R W y
Oh! That changed my view — it's a bit easier to look at this stuff now — gonna carry on though
R W R W R y W y R y
Hah. I never thought that accident would get easier to bear. Maybe, just maybe....
W y R W Ry W R W y y R y

Notes:

"Reach to your topic" means sort of mentally feel for it a bit, look at a bit of it, get a bit nearer to it or contact it in some way. Get as close to it as you can without pushing it too much.

When you have done this, say something aloud (really!), at least "Yes."

Mark on your session report what is happening as it happens.

If you start shutting down, click on "Shutting Down" at once.

With the Reach & Withdraw continue until you feel confident enough to proceed with the usual 6-direction commands that will be given to you. This might take a few times through (reach... withdraw... reach... withdraw... reach... withdraw), or it might take five hundred times through - or more - and many sessions. It is your choice. You can always run more Reach & Withdraw later whenever you want to.
