Hi

I was pondering the creation of a ‘solo’ new code game in the context of some of the suggestions we discussed as a group recently (take the example of alphabet game on a swiss-ball - balance being the calibrator).

I’ve been experimenting and not getting consistent results, and so I started to unpick the format and potential variables (most obvious variable is my own concentration - i find it more difficult to not drift into SuzyLand without a coach), and wondered what thoughts people had on the intention behind each of the steps of the New Code games (not limited to Solo)?

Haha, I realise I missed making explicit that I’m not asking about the intention of New Code Games, but rather, each component therein…

Those pesky pedant dream visitors… hehe.

Hi Suzy,
Still wondering whether I got it right. It seems quite obvious, at least that is the first impression, which might be misleading.
Could you specify one of your thoughts? (can be more )

What is the intention for coming up with a “solo” game? Only reason I ask is because if you do them enough times you can anchor in the HPS without doing the game at all. When I learned how to do it I was in a HPS for virtually four days cause it felt so good (a HPS junkie ). It kicks in spontaneously as well. I think - I am sure (although not 100% on my own internal calibration for it yet) it has generalised to contexts I have never consciously chosen because I suddenly realise I am firing the anchor unconsciously

Hi Alistair,
Could you chunk down the procedure (as much as possible)?
I’ll be grateful

Going back to Suzy’s original thread

The whole intention of a New Code Game is to get a high performance state through playing the game throughout its different conditions, and then to step back into the original context in this New resourceful state, providing you with more choice, amongst many other things!!!

Let’s keep our intention simple here instead of over complicating our original intention for playing the game in the first place!!

Can an effective solo New Code Game be created…...  In the words of John Grinder, “you tell me, go out and explore this yourself”

I Invite you all to go back explore what you can do, this is not an academic test, reading long transcripts from textbooks and various books is not the answer in this case, go out and test this on yourself’s, what gets you into a high performance state? How can you apply this?

Jack,
What is the Suzy’s original thread for you?

Surely “classic code” hasn’t become that complicated has it?

Alistair,
I am interested in the details of your subjective experience. Classic code is general.
Cheers

Haha, for some reason my email alerts have not sent me anything on this thread!!! Whaaaaaatttt???!!!! Why I oughta….

I have some reading to do. It’s very cool actually, I logged on to post a question, not even recalling I had posted this thread, and hey presto - lots of material to keep me busy - for now!

I’ll be back….

I don’t know where to start - fabulous!

Dymitr. My intention for the original post was to find a way to achieve a HPS by myself. My difficulty was probably as obvious as it seemed. But as with all thing dynamic, it has since become more!

I am experimenting thus:

1. Firstly, I still need to be able to achieve a reliable HPS by myself. I’ve been persistent in trying new things. And I think I scared a man and his dog early this morning as i tried out some new ‘moves’ in a quiet country lane (I didn’t see him until it was too late…) :(
(NJ - your 1st post was interesting in this regard and has given me plenty to ponder, so thank you)
(Alistair - the anticipation of a 4 day HPS is almost enough to bring about a HPS in itself! I’d also be interested in knowing more of your experience).

2. The latest addition is that I’m experimenting with New Code games without a conscious context. I’m interested in seeing what my unconscious would like to bring to the table. So the context is everything and nothing… With this in mind, I’m pondering the purpose (and relevance) of the spatial anchors as it’s a context free exercise.

I’d really welcome your thoughts on this new addition, as I’m pretty sure you’ll all have a perspective on this that will give me even more food for thought…

Speak soon!

Hi Suzy,
I think I got it wrong at the first time. I thought you were substituting the name New Code Games for New Code Change Format. Now I am rather convinced you were indeed asking about the intention of components of New Code Games, not NCCF. Am I right this time?
Nice to have you back
Dymitr

Or am I wrong again?

Haha, and then I disappear again…

Nope, you are right that it is both the New Code Games I am pondering AND [part of] the Change Format. :D

Rather than the steps themselves, I was after the intention of each of the steps. I wanted some reassurance of my own ‘hunch’ that the spots on the floor were unnecessary ritual in this context.

But my first question was about tips on playing the solo New Code games. Once I felt i got the playing right, I could then get to the question about the spots on the floor. Clearly the second question (written first i this post - jees!) was more important as it came screaming out before i got an answer to the first question! :?

Confused? absolutely! :D

Actually, I posted on another forum as well, and Pete Salisbury posted a great reply on the intentions of some of the steps. I’ve shared it here for the benefit of anyone reading this post. http://www.nlpconnections.com/forum/15426-new-code-purpose-spatial-anchors.html

This made me realise how much I need to practice.

As to the experiments… for now, I’m happy to go with the idea that the spots on the floor are an unnecessary ritual - in this context.

My smileys didn’t work :(

At least unhappy faces also don’t appear… justice rains
