Do you not agree with the concept of sliding anchors? Where the essense is
not to use the same spot.
Also, if the anchor is based on the WAY you touch, then again, the
destination is not THAT important.
Finally, if you need to access the same spot again, make sure of this when
you set the anchor.

But if you want to anchor a sad state, just "pretend" to be sad. You might
like to debate the incredible power of the word "pretend" when applied to
state conditions.

Not at all!
BUT.. "it will have a much more powerful response" if you are.
No single component is "necessary", but when you start removing the bricks,
the structure slowly starts to decompose. So, choose carefully which
bricks you plan to take out. It's a big game of jenga

Are you discounting it? or just that this statement has 20 years of
validity behind it?

Why not use touch - much more personal!
This form of anchoring is still in popular play today with cults such as
the Freemasons etc.
I would be loathed to dismiss it without wondering why it had been used for
centuries to such powerful ends. (..your honour !JOKE!)
Hey, why not procure all the power you can muster and have both... hmmm...

Maybe you could put a fag burn in their jacket, then you'd still know where

Yes, I agree, you should not rely on JUST K anchors

or maybe "the way you tilt your head reminds me of my friend who died last
week"
you mean like saying "I dare you" to invoke a reaction
or "did your |_grandmother teach you that?"
no woman wants to hear "my mum wears that perfume"
...hang on we've done, Visual, Auditory, Kinesthetic, Olfactory, ahh yes,
sense 5, Gustatory (VAKOG)

boy"
..so after all that, how do you feeeel (Emotions=V+A+K+O+G when considered
within your representational system)
...i'm guessing "pretty good" as I left you with a joke and told you you
were a "good boy" (sorry ladies, but I'm told that most of you are quite
naughty)
>In fact if they are in a really bad state and you fire the anchor

Yes, time to invet everything, the anchor, your tone of voice, your
submodality references ...well, it's only a rule, not a fact. Maybe you
can find places where the rule DOESN'T work?

This slots nicely in with the cotech (irc = chat.camarades.com:6667) chats
on pace and lead.
Guess how they feel; try to feel the same, act the same, talk the same,
etc; slowly start to feel a new way until it is engulfing - they will
surely follow (if done properly.) You will find natural anchors all the
way through (you change breathing, voice tone, posture, etc.) so the
addition of more achors (such as picking your nose or better still, their
nose, at the right time) will only serve to support you in the long term.

aha - I said about that earlier.
My fave was for running your fingers through your hair - where do you
stop?? Always?? Does it change when you're happy??

I'm with Mark on this one (WOW!)
I suggest if you are aware of a competing state, then UTILISE it!
Get in there with them, and move out slowly but surely - often in "fits and
spurts."
The End :)
