You gotta be kidding!


Notes:

PaulsRobot is designed mostly for individuals to act as their own session supervisor, unless there is a professional available who is trained specifically in these procedures. It is usually a bad idea to decide mid-session on a new session plan for the ongoing session. End the session first, take a breather, then work out what to do in the next session.

Here are some sample session plans. You don't have to stick to these, but it might be advisable, at least to begin with. You don't have to do them in the sequence 1, 2, 3, 4. If you want, you can do sessions using 1, 1, 1, 5, 1, 2, 1, 1, 3, 3, 4, 4, or whichever seems appropriate at the time.

Example session plan #1
1. Ensure you're ready for the session, with enough food, sleep, not under the influence, and enough time available in a location where you won't get disturbed by the kids, pets, telephone etc.

2. Make sure you are familiar with the theory of False Data Stripping, and have had some success with using Rub & Yawn and other PaulsRobot procedures like Core.

3. If you have attention on something like a recent upset or problem or something bad you did, address this first using an appropriate module (see Module List). Return to the rest of your written session plan when your attention is freed up from the current upset or whatever and you feel better.

4. Write down a subject you think may be a good one to address with FDSing. Make sure it is one you are personally interested in sorting out, not merely a subject that someone said you should address.

5. Do an FDS session. Follow the instructions exactly as given, and end off the different parts of FDSing at appropriate points per the FDS End Points page (these are not the same as regular session end points).


Notes:

Example session plan #2
[Points 1-3 of the first session plan above are understood to apply to each session plan that you do]

4. Continue with the same topic as the previous session and see if there is more on it. If not, pick a new subject you are interested in addressing with FDSing.


Example session plan #3
[Points 1-3 of the first session plan above are understood to apply to each session plan that you do]

4. Make up a list of subjects that are a significant part of your life, and work through them one by one, doing the more important ones first. You get to decide which ones are more important and which are less important. These do not have to be academic subjects like "Quantum Mechanics" or "German Literature", but can include life subjects like "Differences between men and women" or "How to survive financially."


Example session plan #4
[Points 1-3 of the first session plan above are understood to apply to each session plan that you do]

4. Make up a list of all the subjects you studied at school, college, night school, work etc. If in doubt about a subject, put it down anyway. Pick the top five subjects from the list that you are interested in, and have a go at them one by one to see if it helps.

5. Repeat with the next five, and so on.


Example session plan #5
[Points 1-3 of the first session plan above are understood to apply to each session plan that you do]

4. Follow the instructions in the troubleshooting section. Do the out-of-session steps first; then if needed the first type of session; then if needed the second type of session.
