Every person has unlimited potential ... it's just that we don't know what's holding us back

If you want to improve any area of life be that in health, knowledge, personal levels of confidence, your motivation, wealth, success or happiness then reverse speech analysis has many ways that it can provide you with help.

Since numerous speakers around the world have started the personal develop process where more and more people are taking responsibility for their own success in all areas of their life and their state of mind, people have been looking for better, quicker ways to improve their life.

There are limitations with most forms of personal development strategies as most people don't want to get out of their comfort zone to change. Have you ever tried to improve some area of your life with will power, motivation or discipline but still kept doing what you wanted to stop or change?

Reverse speech is the most unique form of personal development in the world today. This is obviously a big statement but think about this for a second, if all change is based on first identifying the real problem and we often aren't real keen on really facing that problem, doesn't that mean we are our own worst enemy when it comes to really helping ourselves?

Doesn't that mean that we will often skirt around a problem and tell ourselves that we really got to the root cause of our problems when we really didn't because of fear? It could be because we got too close to a painful truth of our past or it could be that we didn't really want to go through with the feeling of greater pain to really face our own fear on that issue.

Let's face it when it comes to change we'd rather not, as it is our human nature to do more to avoid pain than to increase pleasure.

So what is the solution?

Change without any pain is the only solution to improve our lives. So how can we change without pain? Simple. By not knowing consciously experiencing what the pain is we don't have to relive it or address it. If we can find out the real issue of our limitations or hang ups or what holds us back by asking our unconscious mind what's going on, it will give us the straight truth, the Truest Truth of what the real issue is using reverse speech. The best thing is it comes out in metaphoric and symbolic language that a trained practitioner in reverse speech can understand, yet the words have virtually no meaning to you until it is explained.

Then as it is explained to you it's done so in terms you can relate to and accept as truth without the fear associated with facing it yourself when you find it.

Your unconscious mind knows what is holding you back better than any person on the planet, no matter what their level of skill. Your unconscious mind knows every single detail of your whole life so it knows what you fear, what you love what you hate, what is holding you back from realising your true potential, what is stopping you from being confident and happy about every area of your life.

Your unconscious mind knows what you don't know and it will let you deal with it on an unconscious level without having to go through conscious awareness of the change. That means you will experience no pain!

How Reverse Speech works with Metaphors

Metaphors are a very important part of the deeper aspects of Reverse Speech. Reverse Speech comes from all areas of the mind - conscious, unconscious and the collective unconscious. In fact less than ten percent of all speech reversals are conscious in nature. By conscious I mean, those reversals that actually detail conscious thoughts that the speaker has on their mind at the time of speaking. These reversals usually speak in straightforward English and are very obvious in their meaning.

Whilst these reversals are significant in themselves, by far the greatest significance in reverse speech is those reversals that come from the deeper areas of the mind. These reversals describe in pictures and images, or metaphors, the precise way that the human mind orchestrates behaviour and personality. Click here for article on metaphors

They give us knowledge about the psyche of man that is mind blowing in its implications. It is in this area that most of my work has been devoted over recent years. I have compiled an extensive dictionary of Reverse Speech metaphors (containing the definitions for over 1,000 metaphors) and I have hundreds of case studies with thousands of speech reversals documented.

This metaphor section of the web site will be gradually expanded and updated as time permits to sort out the information and case studies of many client files. Every tape I have ever analyzed is stored away in archives along with the session transcripts of forward and reverse dialogue.

SESSION WORK and METAPHORS

mp3 An excellent description of Reverse Speech session work - And it must see in us

A confrontation with Self. A woman looking for her purpose in life cannot get beyond past conflicts and legal issues. Her reversals are an internal message from her deep self to her conscious self. "Look within / I have a terrible Goddess / What happened to your soul." - Note the different tonalities and pronouns as different parts of Self talk.

For the RS Analysts. I'll let you ponder the significance of this one - Surf the animus need. Feel the sweat. The Fuhrer will find a nice war

A business man following session work discussing his new plans - I've got a new wolf within me

A woman dealing with a powerful male figure in her life - Fed the Great Caesar

A woman trying to determine why her income levels fluctuate - This is mind rape

Hindu leader, "Papaji". Long time RSers will understand the significance of this one! - Making a rose / We smell it

Wolf Dance (it/ing) (on a 3 year old - first sign of metaphors at a young age)

Forced it. A new whirlwind

Let the goddess feel. Grant us a sign (Note what she says forwards immediately after this reversal. Goddess=hope for for the future. The woman is seeking hope)

David: "What was your overall reaction (to session work)."
Client: "I'm more conscious of it now. I mean, the fact is I've probably had this all my life and I've been able to tough it out and gloss it over, but as the armour's falling away, it hurts." REVERSAL Have a new mind. It was a shock
Client (talking about the
metawalk visualisation sessions): "I go [sound asleep] when I lie down." REVERSAL That feels so nice

[Play Stream] [Download File] In this example a client unconsciously questions himself about issues. The reversal says: "What is the loss in me."

[Play Stream] [Download File] This example is similar. Many people are shocked by the revelations of Reverse Speech. It shows us that the human mind is vastly deeper and somewhat different than we have ever imagined. This example has a new Reverse Speech student speaking into a tape player seeking answers. The reversal says: "The song's salvation. The shock is non-stop." Song is a common metaphor in reverse speech referring to a nice message, or pleasant activities. The song's salvation means that this woman is indeed finding her answers in the revelations that Reverse Speech can give. It is also non-stop. She is constantly being bombarded by new concepts and ideas.

[Play Stream] [Download File] Reverse Speech can used in therapy to track the extent of a client's congruency. In this example a client talks about revelations about her life. The reversal says, "Hear the lie" which is very congruent with the forward dialogue. The reversal tells us her perceptions are accurate.

Reverse Speech will open us up to a whole new era in working with clients in a therapeutic setting. For a start it offers us an accurate tool to see exactly what is going on inside the mind. This removes all the guess work and therapeutic biases that currently exists. For the counsellor and therapist, Reverse Speech can detail the outcome of the therapy, whether it will be successful and what problems will be encountered. The next two examples show two clients initial reaction to the process.

[Play Stream] [Download File] In the first example, my instincts told me trouble was ahead. I asked my client about this. She responds forwards that there will be no problems but the speech reversal said: "I'll mess with you, you bloody ass." The example is played first, then backwards at three speeds, then forwards and immediately reversed.

[Play Stream] [Download File] In the second example, my client and I are talking just prior to the session beginning about some photographs he wants to give me. A speech reversal occurs in this section that says: "Pleased to be your friend." This indicate a smooth process is about to follow.

[Play Stream] [Download File] Many times Reverse Speech will give very specific instructions concerning therapeutic approaches. In this example a client of mine discusses money fears. The speech reversal says, "Work on my grief." This tells me precisely what I need to do and thus this one reversal has saved us what could have been hours and hours of exploratory therapy time to get to the source of the problem AND the solution.

[Play Stream] [Download File] In this example, a client who is about to undergo the process of trance to restructure the deep unconscious has some understandable concerns. I am recording the pre trance tape. In this tape I ask the unconscious how do I change this pattern. I never show the clients these reversals but rather use them to plan out the trances. My client ask me if my reversals will say that I am telling the truth. My reversal says: "I know who we are." This reflects my many years of experience with working with the unconscious mind. It has given me great understanding into human nature and my client is quite safe.

[Play Stream] [Download File] Most of the answers in Reverse Speech session work comes in the form of metaphors. This will be a prime theme of this section on the site. Metaphors are words or symbols that describe, in pictures, deeper functions of the human mind. The following example gives a brief introduction to metaphors. I am talking to a client about the recent death of her pet. The reversal says: "Lassie friend, walking out of the door." The example is played forwards, then backwards at three speeds, then forwards again, this time with the reversal inserted followed by a continuation of the conversation. We then discover that "Lassie" refers to her pet dog. The reversal gives a metaphoric picture of her dog - lassie, a friendly loyal companion - plus describes, in metaphor, her belief that death is not the end but merely a transition or doorway to another existence or, walking out of the door.

[Play Stream] [Download File] Wolf is a very common metaphor in Reverse Speech. It refers to the part of the mind that is the hunter and protector. Reverse Speech frequently describes humans as wolves in the forest fighting for survival. the extent of our success will depend directly upon the state of our wolf. Is it strong or weak? Does it know how to fight or is it timid? Often times in my work with clients I can achieve a significant behavioural change by working with wolf metaphor. The following example is taken from a session where a man was seeking to increase his income. In the actual example itself, he talks firstly about a client who did not pay his money. The speech reversal says: "I still feel another wolf." Shortly after he talks about the effect this loss of income caused by his client had on his bank account. The reversal says; "Catch the wolf." This indicates he intends to get his money, and the two reversals give an initial indication of the warlike nature of the hunt that exists on the unconscious level.


This next example also shows a man who wants to improve his business success after recovering from a recent financial disaster. Forwards he talks about bank's refusal to give him a loan but they will give him a high interest credit card. Three reversals occur in this section of soundtrack. This is fairly typical of Reverse Speech - one reversal every 5-10 seconds. The reversals in this section give the man instructions form his unconscious mind how to shift his current situation. This is where session work really shines, because the unconscious gives the answers to all problems through speech reversals. It is that small still voice within that most of us ignore because we are too busy freaking out with life's so-called difficulties. Reverse Speech says that we create all of these difficulties ourselves.

The second reversal says: "Aim Eagle." The instructions from the unconscious continue. The Eagle is a common metaphor in reverse. It usually works in conjunction with the Wolf and acts as a short term scout. It refers to our intuition and insight, or our ability to see beyond present circumstances to the great possibilities that always lie ahead of us. We can all see these possibilities if we shut up our mouth and open our eyes instead.

The final reversal in this section says: "I know within you must move my grief." The reversal continues to instruct, showing what the man already knows deep down inside. He must move his own grief and pain about his circumstances. Once this grief has been shifted, and he has stopped blaming others, he will be able to be free and move forward."


[Play Stream] [Download File] Here is an example that is not from session work but is certainly metaphoric and continues the theme of no blame. The unconscious has all the answers if we will just be quiet and listen. It is a section from Henry Kissinger talking about the problems in Israel. He is talking about the many ways the late Prime Minister Rabin tried to bring about peace. The speech reversal says: "There's milk in heaven. Moses lost with thy noise."

These are deep metaphors, using the obvious religious theme of Israel's faith. Reverse Speech refers to Heaven as the deepest and most sacred part of the mind. Milk is healing energy, or food for the life force. Moses is the part of the mind that hears from Heaven, or our connection with our intuition. Noise is simply that - conscious chatter that is meaningless. To call it Thy noise, means that one considers this chatter to be Divine, or to give deity to conscious rubbish. Reverse Speech says this is a serious error. Thus the entire reversal translates to: "Stop all the fuss and arguing and listen to the small still voice of your unconscious, because it contains all your answers."

[Play Stream] [Download File] The following example of a metaphor is from Hillary Clinton. She is talking about some of the struggles they experience in the White House, but they keep on going nonetheless. The reversal says, "Worthy nest. Licking Odin." Odin is a common metaphor meaning to succeed with struggles and difficulty. In fact, a person running an Odin metaphor believes that success comes through struggles. The reversal on Hillary, using the word nest (a place of comfort and nurturing) shows this belief system is very strong in her and she will unconsciously create situations of struggle so that success will follow.


WHIRLWIND

One of the most common metaphors in Reverse Speech is the metaphor Whirlwind. It appears in reverse under several different meanings, all of which are related to each other. In its simplest form, it describes our emotional and physical state. One's whirlwind can be that of depression or that of happiness. The way speech reversals describes the whirlwind will describe that person's general demeanour and outlook on life. In its more advanced forms, Reverse Speech talks about two separate Whirlwinds. A Whirlwind, or an individual's energy system, and THE whirlwind, or a collective energy system that empowers the planet. Reverse Speech talks about the personal whirlwind as an energy field that surrounds the body and which also interacts with THE collective whirlwind. At even deeper levels still, Reverse Speech says that our thoughts influence THE Whirlwind and effect the physical world in which we live. For further details see the article entitled, "The Light Of Collective Creation" printed elsewhere on the web site. Also, go to the Whirlwind page.

[Play Stream] [Download File] Here is the metaphor Whirlwind in context. In this example a man seeks for the cause of some physical problems during session work. The speech reversal says: "Song reverse busted my Whirlwind." Whirlwind in this case refers to his personal energy field. The Song refers to his basic outlook on life, on "The Song Of His Spirit." Thus the reversal translates to - "This physical problem was caused by a change in my general attitude which has affected the energy of my body." Reverse Speech frequently details the causes of physical diseases and offers cures for them. Many times these problems are spiritual in nature and require spiritual solutions. I will explore this theme as I continue to add examples to this page.

[Play Stream] [Download File] In this example a man discusses possible career directions. The reversal gives him very clear instructions saying: "That love will damn the Whirlwind." Or, his connection with that job will shut down his energy and passion. Reverse Speech will frequently provide very clear instruction for life's direction using metaphoric terms and parables.


Misc. Metaphor Reversals

[Play Stream] [Download File] The metaphor Surf is a very common metaphor in Reverse Speech meaning to move forward or cooperate, to 'go with the flow'. Here is an example of Surf on movie actor Harrison Ford talking about people's participation in one of his movies. The reversal says, "They surf with us."

[Play Stream] [Download File] In this reversal a client is talking about her spirit guides and the like. A very disturbing reversal occurs on this section that says, "Garden of Evil." The metaphor Garden is a common word in reverse and is usually connected with the Garden of Eden, or the beginnings of the birth of consciousness. In this case, it is associated with the beginnings of evil.


Physical Diseases

Reverse Speech contains much information about physical diseases - their causes and suggestions for cures. Many time reversals will suggest herbal cures for common ailments. Here is a remarkable example found by Reverse Speech Certified Investigator, Mike Deane. Mike explains the story...

[Play Stream] [Download File] This is a recording that an Analyst did with a person that has Asthma. She has had Asthma for about 5 years now and doesn't know how she got it. No family history. She has also had a chronic sinus infection associated with the Asthma that she has not been able to get rid of. She came to me asking for help and so we did a session. The reversal pointed to "UNDER THE FLOOR".... She and her husband did check this out and found that the underside of the house was contaminated with mold and fungus. Then the next part of the reversal "PUSS IN MY HEAD". They had to open the whole under side of the house, move out for several days for it to be treated. Her sinus condition has gotten better and her Asthma episodes have lessened, also she has been able to cut back on her Asthma medications.

[Play Stream] [Download File] The following reversal was found on a client who came to me, in part, to find out any psychological causes for her cancer. The reversal says, "Cancer's your powerful shell castle." Castle is a metaphor for refuge or fulfilment. Shell is to hide for the purpose of protection. This reversals show how strong a hold the cancer has on her and she is using it for refuge and self protection.
