“Word Medicine.” Wow. Your essays put words and a systemic framework to what I experience in my intuitive counseling practice. I have studied and practiced a wide variety of energetic, spiritual and herbal healing modalities over many years.

These days, words are the only “medicine” I use to effect more profound transformation..

I can hear the beliefs a client holds that block the soul’s vital influence and, guided by their soul, paint a verbal image of them free of this obstacle. I work remotely, so my only tool is words…which carry healing energy because of our mutual intent and a client’s consent to realign with their soul’s agenda.

If you don't mind, what core techniques do you lean on, if any? Most have some framework set or tool(s) they use as a guide... CBT, DBT, EFT, Gestalt, EMDR, Reiki, etc...

I studied almost all the primary techniques and frameworks... I felt it was important to know the pathways each use, word choices, techniques etc... to help me put vocabulary and common consistency to my work... what I mean to say, just like cross-domain studying (e.g., quantum physics, neurobiology, philosophy) I study them all in an attempt to transcend and include them all as one "mechanism", with different avenues to the same destination... if that makes sense...

Good to hear from you, Rev Katie!

"I can hear the beliefs a client holds that block the soul’s vital influence and, guided by their soul, paint a verbal image of them free of this obstacle. I work remotely, so my only tool is words…which carry healing energy because of our mutual intent and a client’s consent to realign with their soul’s agenda."

This is an amazing gift! If I was to rewrite it for me... I'd say "I can feel their beliefs..." -- "...and the shadows just present themselves to me to address directly in the form of resonance language that brings mirrored energy that transmutes their shadow to neutral state, freeing them momentarily from their shadows influence (heavy energy) long enough to bring awareness of its existence..."

It’s the same work, different tools, different modalities, same current. Energetic healing operates through those same neural and vibrational pathways. And yes, whether it’s facilitated through language, presence, or psychedelics, we’re tapping the same system... elevated brain states that trigger neuroplasticity, opening the doors to consciousness expansion. Then walk the path with them...

I love these chats!

On a past post I suspected maybe the author was AI, then checked and was assured the perspective was real (human) grounded in NLP theory. Now with this deeper dive into NLP, I notice the same stylistics--short sentences, repetitive phrasing--used in AI generations from other writers. So my new conclusion is not to suspect or criticize this (human) author, but to be more vigilant in the face of AI's seductive stylistics hacked from NLP. This article hints as much, noting, "The controllers... studied the same sciences we now reclaim: bioacoustics, NLP, frequency mapping..." Discernment, Grasshopper! ;)

You gave me a good idea for an article... let meknow what you think... rough tile, How to Spot Manipulation"... written from NLP mindset in manner that provides the reader with tools to understand the techniques [they] use...

Yeah, absolutely, these readers skills are critical, more and more by the day! I recently came across a more general take on the issue -- https://seanjkernan.substack.com/p/13-signs-you-used-chatgpt-to-write -- but I'm sure your treatment will be more targeted and authoritative on the NLP programming aspect of "AI style."

And maybe, too, something on the deeper twist that occurs, where an "NLP writer" such as yourself now gets mistaken for AI, since AI has already hijacked NLP style!

Deeper yet, what about the "programming" aspect of NLP itself? Is the approach already inherently "machine designed" as it has developed out of brain and language science/data/research? Then again, all language can be weaponized, targeted, massaged, co-opted, plagiarized, faked, manipulated... so we've always had to be on guard for lies, fake news... and seductive poetry. ;)

Thank you for the link... I have a different way of determining if something is AI generated, over the obvious signs... it is how it makes me feel... there is a mechanical nature of AI... it is hard to put words to it... but it carries an "odd" frequency... maybe the best way to say it is, imagine a band you know and love playing just off key... not entirely, but sporadically... like frequency speedbumps during the song...

About the new article... I try not to key in on specifics and speak more holistically. Let me explain...

I write to provide holistic, energetic tools that allow people to hone their own energy fields. I write in a very systematic way and wrap it around a storyline to allow it to resonate with each person internally as their own...

Being an Empath, this "gift" comes to me naturally... again, let me explain... imagine being a child that recognizes patters within patterns from a young age... then picture a 10 year old trying to explain such a complex observation to people that have ZERO idea what the boy is talking about... that boy learns early how to explain very complex subjects to people in a manner that resonates across multiple levels of consciousness at the same time...

All that is to say, when I write, I try to be as holistic as possible - yet specific enough to impress upon them the meaning of what I am trying to explain... that is where a good storyline comes in... so the article will likely take something that everyone recognizes (such as television advertising techniques) and break them into a storyline - such as a family watching a television show and explaining all the commercials each were exposed to and how it may be affecting each one separately, as well as collectively... -- but that is just outward processing, it may end up being something vastly different - but the same none-the-less, if you know what I mean.

The TV ads example is a good one, since we're already familiar with its power and danger (at least superficially). It's like the analogue version of AI that got released first. (Political messaging being quite similar to the TV ads, and of course around election time it too runs as TV ads.)

It is always good to show discernment... good observation, by the way... the choppy sentences are on purpose. It is a hypnotic technique... in NLP we learn the brain is able to take in only so much at a time based in the initial egoic filters... (generalize, distort, delete)... shorter, burst sentences allow smoother transition to the subconscious as they don't carry much data, so the ego perceives then as less of a threat... the technique is on the combination of 3-5 short burst sentences carrying to the subconsciousness the greater message of sovereignty...

In contrast to commercials doing the same, short burst messaging, to manipulate you into buying something or selling your soul...

Thank you. I needed to read this today. I recently wrote about Living Language as a Carrier of Soul and found your post very resonant. What I want to share with you is that in finding new words in the quantum realm to describe my lived experience more accurately- like resonance, emergence, lattice, field etc., and including them in my Substack posts, I've now been publicly shamed! I saw a post from Ted Gioia today that linked to writers he accused of using AI or Chatgpt to replace God. ( I don't use Chatgpt to write, much less talk to God!) He linked to a post on Reddit that obviously searched certain words, and if you used them, your name and post got listed. Gioia's post is titled, "Tens of Thousands of AI Users Now Believe ChatGpt is God." That is definitely not me, but just one word choice put me on a list of people accused of having "neural howlround" which is some kind of "ai autism" or "ai psychosis." The author identifies it as a danger that needs to be immediately addressed. I truly am shaking my head. I'm including a link to my dangerous post. https://bentleykalaway.substack.com/p/rediscovering-living-language-as

What I appreciate about all of this? As an Empath that sees the world through energy, frequency, and vibration, I've been using these words my whole life... I truly appreciate that many others that are awakening are starting to feel with their eyes, see with their ears, and sense with their Intuition...

The words people are using resonate with their feelings... I work in corporate America... I typically stay with a company 3-5 years before moving on... by the time I leave, I have made significant changes in the words people use... I am business process coach that talks to people all day long... my word choices start to seep into the culture... words like you mentioned, those associated to the feelings of energy... these words are becoming omnipresent... not because of AI, but because human consciousness is rising...

Wow! Something finally opened up for me after reading this. I have been reading your articles and have found them very interesting but most of the time I could not quite 'figure' it out. I knew there was something there but I felt my brain just couldn't wrap around it. This one did it for me. My higher power (God) has been working on me about the words I speak for the last 5 years. I have made a lot of positive changes and I have much more to go and this just might be the turning point for me. I really did not realize how much the 'elites' have controlled and manipulated us. What a great time to be alive!!! Thank you!

Amazing, isn't it? You will notice in my writings there are not swear words, no cussing, no negativity... because it isn't necessary... it isn't that I am perfect, if I bang my funny bone, you might hear a cuss word fly out... but it is rare. By choice, because once I stopped swearing, things shifted for me. Grammar is the language of love... "In the beginning, there was the Word!"

Outstanding communication, OC! Brings better conscious awareness to reading, listening, and responding to each other. When we absorb doses of enemy blather we can feel it in the body, so recognize it and recover. Observe consciousness, and turn back around to the good.

Word Medicine….Now that is some alchemy that I feel I can compound and dispense with reasonable competence, if not 100% error free. The human factor does occasionally preclude best results, but as we ascend, success should trend upward as well!

Kelly, indeed... is any of us ever at 100% for any length of time... life comes at us fast, we will take hits...

We know this though, and it is about how we recover with grace that allows us to "come back" faster...

A friend shared this with me. Thankfully. This was more than eye-opening. It is life-changing. And I was aware of some of the concepts presented. But never read anything done so clearly laying out how we are being manipulated. But now I know how to respond. In an incredibly powerfully positive way. Thank you for this amazing discussion.

Your essay is really mind-opening. I read this by pausing, contemplating, doing comparative study on my mind with Buddha’s teachings regarding speech, verbal assertiveness or impact on mind, matter and universe, samsara (the circle of rebirths). I am not just reading this, I am going to apply this to my body and mind. Kudos
