Sentence Completion Workshop Why It Works

Why does the sentence completion approach work?

At the core, the power of the sentence completion technique and the reason why it works rests on 3 simple premises.

Premise #1    Most people know a great deal more than they think they do. The technique provides an easy to use, non-judgmental context where individuals can discover their own knowledge, wisdom and hidden potentials.

Premise #2    The act of noticing can generate spontaneous healing and integration. Shining the light of conscious awareness on sentence completions tends to generate spontaneous integration and growth.

Premise #3    People and organizations grow and prosper when they listen to themselves and act on what they know. The technique is specifically geared to translating ideas and discoveries into ACTION.

More Reasons Why The Process Works

  • Acts as a stimulant to new associations and real-time integrations, both of which lay the groundwork for subsequent shifts in feelings and behavior.

  • Properly constructed, sentence stems can bypass internal blocks and resistances.

  • Repetition helps to counteract the inclination to dismiss unpleasant realities; it also encourages and facilitates absorption of the insights that "spontaneously" tend to surface.

  • Users can instantly see the results of their work but separate the process of discovery from assessment.

  • No prior training is required to benefit from it.

  • The work is uncomplicated, fun, spontaneous and disarming.
