Based on my meddling, I’ve come up with the concept of State-Based Reframing. I’ve discovered that to come up with a reframe, one needs to enter the appropriate emotional state.
e.g. Nobody believes in me
- (shock) what? really? I don’t believe that!
- (sarcasm) with that attitude who’s going to ever believe you?
- (humor) Lol – that’s unbelievable because I’m actually beginning to believe you!
