NLP Technique: Parts integration

Used for: Resolving inner conflict


Nature: A powerful process that identifies aspects of the personality, gives each one a voice
and leads them through a structured interaction.
--
1. Identify the Part that wants to change and the Part that keeps doing the problem. .
2. Create an image of both Parts, one in each palm of your hands. Any metaphoric
representation that symbolizes each Part is appropriate.
3. Fixate your attention on one of the Parts first. Then ask that Part what its intention is
for doing what it’s doing. Keep repeating that question on whatever ‘answer’ you get,
until you arrive at a positive value like love, freedom, joy etc.
4. Fixate your attention on the other Part next. Then ask that Part what its intention is
for doing what it’s doing. Keep repeating that question on whatever ‘answer’ you get,
until you arrive at a positive value like love, freedom, joy etc.(c) Notice that what both
Parts want (their highest intention) is either identical or compatible. .
5. Identify which resources each Part has, that would be useful to the other Part in
achieving their highest intention. Imagine both Parts now sharing these resources..
6. Have the hands turn towards each other and see the two internal images begin to
merge as the hands progressively move closer together.
7. As the hands come together, create a third image that symbolizes the integration of
the two former Parts. .
8. Bring the new integrated image into your body through placing both hands on your
heart, breathing it in and absorbing this whole new experience.
9. Relax for a few minutes and then think about that old issue in light of being a more
integrated person now.
10. Consider how you’re going to approach your situation differently in the future, now
that you’re fully integrated…
