BrainWork Recursion Therapy (BWRT)

BWRT stands for BrainWork Recursive Therapy. It is a recently created therapeutic process that works upon issues specifically within the subconscious mind. It can be used to alter a negative mental template the client has that is acting as a road block in their lives. It can be used to treat and manage trauma, phobia, addiction, self-acceptance and self-confidence issues.

It is a confidential method that doesn’t require you to reveal any private information and is carried out in a completely conscious state. It doesn’t use hypnosis or any mystical concepts instead taking a more logical and scientific route to working with the subconscious mind.

After an individual experiences an event that causes a significant sensation (anger, pain, love, hate, embarrassment, fear), the memory retained from the experience will produce a similar sensation when recalled. These memories of intensity define our character and our behaviour throughout our lives. They are a key reason why we are who we are. However given traumatic memories are often forgotten or repressed they influence us in ways we rarely can comprehend. If you find yourself saying something you regretted or doing something and not understanding why you did it, then you are experiencing a cognitive dissonance caused by your subconscious mind. 

Ultimately the subconscious influences all our decisions and actions and there is very little the average person can do to stop it, or even comprehend it without prior education. 

Methodology: The BWRT method involves identifying the negative subconscious template driving the unwanted response and repeatedly replacing the emotional charge attached to it with a neutral. After this process is completed you will be able to encounter or think about the thing you previously struggled with and have no or minimal emotional response to it.

BWRT is effective at not only altering the emotional response itself but also all of the connecting behaviours that stem from it. These templates, however they were formed, are never resolved by simply ignoring them and so continue to affect your every action in either the smallest or largest of ways, all without you ever being fully aware of it.

This technique is very flexible in its application and I have successfully applied it many times to the following conditions:

  • Addiction
  • Anxiety
  • Bullying
  • Depression
  • Eating Disorders
  • Grief
  • Low Self-esteem
  • Panic Attacks
  • Phobias
  • Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
  • Sexual Abuse / Obsession / Addiction / Impotence

Common Questions:

Is it like hypnosis?

No. You are fully awake and in complete control throughout the entire session. Nothing is done without your full awareness.

Do I have to talk about what happened to me?

No. You do not need to share any details if you would prefer not to. The therapy works on the emotional response itself rather than the details of the event.

How many sessions will I need?

For phobia and single event trauma, often just one or two sessions. For more complex or longstanding conditions, typically three to five.

Summary: The main reason this therapy is so successful is that it operates entirely on a subconscious level. Unlike CBT, the client’s conscious views are completely removed from the procedure. The therapy works directly upon the template itself, that which the client cannot consciously access or change by themselves. This is why cognitive dissonance occurs in the first place, as the subconscious reasoning of a person does not align with their conscious plans and intentions.

BWRT aligns your subconscious and your conscious mind together, so all parts of you work as one perfect mechanism, rather than chronically experiencing a feeling of being pulled in multiple directions. Not only does this allow you to conquer current psychological issues, but it also allows you to retroactively reflect upon them and understand how said subconscious issue would have affected your behaviour. 

I was personally taught by the founder of the BWRT therapy Terrence Watts and have found it to be nearly 100% effective at reducing and in most cases eradicating the condition in all clients. So long as you can visualise the negative image in your mind, I can change your emotional response.
