Reframing basics
If a person has an experience that they don’t like, what they don’t like is their response to it. One way of changing the response is to understand that the response itself is not based on what is going on in sensory experience – it is based on the meaning that the person applies to the experience. If you change what an experience means you’ll change the response to it.
Reframing – putting a spin on things
The meaning of any event depends on how we frame it. When we change the frame we change the meaning and with it our responses and behaviors. For instance if someone goes to a party dressed as a skeleton the meaning is different depending on whether it is Halloween or a funeral.
Framing and metaphor
There is a relationship between framing and metaphor. Like framing, metaphor establishes an association between different ideas. The power of a frame is how it communicates so much with so little. At the cognitive level, metaphor recasts an abstraction in terms of concrete, simpler ideas that increases their power.
This online workshop will give you the ability to frame experiences in a way that empowers you.
