Anchoring and fingers and thumbs

Start wih one hand then the other!

(Normally you would wait until you were coming towards to the peak of a feeling and then anchor it. So this is slighly different.)

Touch your thumb and first finger and as you feel the touch let your imagination find a time you were in a really positive flow state. As you begin to access that state develop it by seeing what you saw, remembering what you heard and remembering your posture, breathing and movement. Explore any changes in that sensory experience which increases the intensity of the state. Move your thumb and first finger a bit so that you automatically associate the feelings of that movement with the state.

Repeat until you have anchored a useful state to each finger and thumb for both hands. Choose a wide variety of memories / states. Maybe you were totally relaxed, maybe exceptionally creative, maybe you had just won a race or were in total harmony with someone, maybe you had just tasted something really special. Maybe you found a state where your imagination just flowed.....

Then randomly touch a finger and thumb, if a memory and state immediatly come back strengthen it by going into the memory, if not simply find another useful state and anchor it in the same way.

You'll find yourelf both anchoring useful states and the ability to access useful states.
