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 W

Notes:

Rub & Yawn when needed as usual

"Withdraw from your topic" means sort of mentally back away from it, put your attention on something else, get further away from it in some way. Even if you already sort of bounced off your topic after a fleeting touch on the "Reach" step, still try and get further away from it on this "Withdraw" step - don't simply go "I already did it."

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 Rogers 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.
