Empathy in Action: Transforming Recovery with Perceptual Positioning

Episode Overview

  • Perceptual positioning is a tool from Neuro Linguistic Programming.
  • It helps you see situations from another person's perspective.
  • Encourages compassion and understanding in recovery relationships.
  • Can reduce conflict and emotional hot points.
  • Promotes trust, healthy boundaries, and mutual respect.
Perceptual positioning allows you to think through and reflect on difficult situations, perhaps conflicting situations.
Ever wondered how seeing things from someone else's shoes could change your life? This episode of 'On the Brink: The No Grey Area Podcast' dives into perceptual positioning, a fascinating concept from Neuro Linguistic Programming that could just be the empathy boost your relationships need. Yosiya teams up with Pamela Reynell, a renowned transformational life coach, to explore how understanding others can transform recovery journeys.
Pamela shares her wisdom on balancing support and control in recovery, emphasising trust, healthy boundaries, and mutual respect. The duo discusses how perceptual positioning can reduce conflict and deepen understanding in those tricky conversations that might otherwise leave you feeling defensive or ready to attack. By considering others' perspectives, you can diffuse emotional hot points and foster compassion. Imagine you're having a heated debate with a friend.
Instead of focusing on what's unfair or what's been done to you, perceptual positioning encourages you to think about what's happening for them. What are their defence mechanisms? What might they be thinking? By reflecting on these questions, you might find a way to connect more deeply and sustainably. With engaging anecdotes and practical advice, this episode offers a refreshing take on mental health and recovery.
Whether you're on your own journey or supporting someone else, there's something here for everyone. Tune in to discover how perceptual positioning can help build more compassionate connections.
