Pre-Session: HeavyDuty Instructions

It is easier to make good use of the PaulsRobot modules if you are familiar with what to expect in a Rub & Yawn session and have had some success with the Rub & Yawn procedure. If you have not done this, it is suggested that you watch this YouTube video and follow the instructions given in it while doing so. It is like an exercise video for the mind in that the benefit comes from doing what is shown, not from sitting back on the couch and watching it while drinking a beer. An alternative to the YouTube video is the text at www.yawnmachine.com.

Before doing a Rub and Yawn session, it is crucial to prepare for the session, not so much mentally but physically. This means having had enough rest and sleep so that you are not physically tired at the time of the session; having had enough nutritious food so that you are well-fed; not being under the influence of drugs or alcohol; having enough time for the session; being in an environment relatively free from distractions, i.e. no kids or pets running around, no sudden loud noises, no people looking over your shoulder etc.; and being willing to follow the instructions given. These requirements are not a luxury but a necessity. If any of these points are not taken care of at the time of the session, then the session is likely to fail, despite the session actions being done correctly otherwise. An obvious example would be if you are drunk and cannot focus your attention at all, but each of the above factors is important. Note that being upset or angry or miserable will not prevent you having an excellent session as long as you follow the session instructions. Being properly prepared for a session as above is called being "sessionable", whether you have a session or not. It is sometimes hard to be sessionable if one has a hectic lifestyle, but it is very necessary if one wants to have a good session. There are more details on these points in the relevant pre-session pages.

What you will be addressing in a PaulsRobot session is called your "topic". It might be a sour relationship you are in; an abusive childhood that you can't get out of your head for long; the loss of a loved one; feeling bad over some failure in life; whatever. You may have decided on your topic before the session starts, or you may simply want to take the option of determining the topic that should be run now right after the session has started. The visualizing procedure will help you to discharge the harmful energy built up over time concerning your topic, and replace the harmful energy in your system with good clean energy. The discharges will be visible as yawns, or sighs, or other obvious physical actions. The "Rub" part of Rub & Yawn--you vigorously rub your hands together, rub your chest, your back, your arms and legs, take your shoes off and rub your feet on the carpet, s-t-r-e-t-c-h, push down on the table, squeeze your chair etc.--seems to stimulate the body into drawing in the fresh energy it needs from the environment.

While doing the rubbing and visualizing of your topic as directed by whichever screen you are looking at there are basically three things that can happen. You will click on whichever link is appropriate, and this will determine the next screen you will see and direction you will receive.

The end point for a HeavyDuty session is covered in HeavyDuty: Session EP.

If you feel yourself shutting down, recognize it as such. Hit the red "Shutting Down" link, and then rub stuff and yawn for as long as needed to get rid of the shutting down. End off dealing with the shutting down when you can rub away for a full minute by the clock without getting any more yawns. Close out the "Shutting Down" tab/window, and continue the process where you left off.

You should have a WRITTEN C/S (Case Supervisor instruction) for the session before you start. You can write this yourself if you don't have someone else acting as C/S (Case Supervisor). The reason for writing it is so that you know what you will be doing in the session, and don't go off on some wild tangent. It is bad form to do a session without a written C/S which you keep to in session. If the C/S (instruction) turns out to not be working in session, then end off the session and write a different C/S outside of session.

Great! Let's do the full pre-session check to make sure I'm ready for the session.

I'm familiar with what is needed and I am fully sessionable. I've set up the session environment including having my computer sound working. Let's go!

Lemme outta here!
