Technique or tool that can show us how to observe, calibrate and shift the client's energy. I call it energy shift technique. And this technique, the coach asked the client, the following questions. One, what is your goal? To? how satisfied Do you feel one to 10 with where you are now with your goal?

Three, what made it higher than a one or 04? How might you increase that number for greater satisfaction? And five? What additional steps Could you take to shift your level of satisfaction even higher Here is an example of using this approach, which illustrates how energy can shift bit by bit. Follow along with the steps on the screen. Suppose my coach asks me, what is your goal?

And I might say, I feel some discomfort when I think about having to speak in front of crowds of more than 300 people. I would like to be more comfortable with that idea. Coach might ask, how satisfied Do you feel one to 10 with where you are now with your goal? I might say I would rate at a level four in terms of satisfaction with the idea. Notice here that we begin to immediately focus on higher energy by shifting the focus to satisfaction Rather than discomfort. Question number three, if you scored above a one, what made you choose that number rather than a one?

I might say, I gave it a four because I have given many speeches to 50 or less, and I have given speeches to 200 people a few times. Notice by focusing on why the number was above a one, I had to look at either previous successes or steps I have already taken to succeed, thus shifting my energy. Question number four. How might you increase that number for greater satisfaction? I might say, one small point upwards would be to make a list Have some ideas, then the coach might ask me Question number five. What additional steps Could you take to shift your level of satisfaction even higher?

I might say, small steps could be to schedule some speeches, offer to give some to different groups and get into practice. I can also use some visualizations and affirmations to support myself. Notice, I have found ways to be proactive and move forward. Then I might say, now I see that I'm much more satisfied than when I am taking action to move forward even in small ways. This is a real key for me. This is my aha.

Thank you coach. This approach demonstrates how energy can be shifted bit by bit. With this strategy, the client's inner beliefs are shifted, but what those beliefs are not necessarily apparent. To take this approach a little deeper and to create awareness, you might also ask, How did your thinking about this issue shift? or What did you learn about yourself as your experience about this issue shifted? For example, my belief that I would not be able to speak to 200 or more people with comfort shifted to I have had adequate experience in the past and I can be successful in the future with small steps.

The energy shift technique was introduced not so that you can apply the steps to your couching in a formulaic way so that you can understand the principles behind the technique.

The key to unlock the door to E energy is the alchemical principle of entrainment. When two energies begin to vibrate together, the lesser energy will entrained to the greater energy.
