Are you all set to stride into the New Year with your resolution shining, confidently striding towards the magical goals you dream of for 2011$%:
Or not$%:
If you've broken your diet, fallen off the wagon or just stayed glued to the sofa, maybe it's time to tap into a new source of power to motivate real, lasting change, fast: the magic of metaphor.

Metaphor is right at the heart of how people think, which means that changes made at a metaphoric level fit you perfectly and stay changed, for good. New there's a technique - called Clean Language - designed specifically to make this kind of profound difference. And it feels gentle, respectful, even spiritual - there's absolutely no bullying allowed!
How does it all work$%: Well, latest research in the world of cognitive science has revealed that metaphor is the very stuff of thought, perhaps even more fundamental than language.

It's almost impossible to think without using metaphors, even about very basic concepts like time. Are you 'looking forward' to the New Year, or 'raking over' the past$%: Our metaphors are so fundamental, we rarely notice them - and when we do, we often dismiss them as 'just figures of speech'.
Because metaphors are at the heart of our thinking, changes that happen at a metaphoric level can have a spectacular impact on many different areas of a person's everyday life.
A Clean coach pays extra-close attention to the metaphors a person uses when they speak and gesture, helping them to discover what they truly believe, and what really matters to them.
That helps the client to devise a New Year's resolution which comes from the heart - and a plan of action which fits perfectly with the reality of their life. And that means it actually happens!
The carefully-devised set of questions used by Clean coaches avoid (as far as humanly possible) making assumptions or giving advice. That makes this process feel respectful rather than confrontational, so there's no need to waste energy on a battle of wills between client and coach.
If you're a consultant, coach or therapist, or in any people-helping business, you can learn the basics of this process in a weekend, or follow a complete course leading to qualification as a Certified Clean Facilitator.
