The Swish Technique : Re-directionalise thinking

The Swish technique enables us to quickly dissolve the feelings attached to unwanted thoughts and to deal with unuseful responses.

In the Swish we replace the unwanted thought or response with a more useful and appropriate one because the Swish re-directionalises thinking. It is an instruction to the brain No, not that - THIS!!

Use it for yourself - and others

This is a valuable technique for managing your own thinking, states, and behaviours. Each time you use the Swish you are training yourself to instantly re-direct your thinking from unuseful topics to more resourceful ones.

By using the Swish in your own life you develop your ability to maintain resourceful states, manage your responses to stressful situations, and engage in the behaviours you want.
