Normal everyday 'thinking' commonly comprises chained images in Vi and Aid modes. The mind does not consistently recognise all patterns, rather those which are seen to be of some value and those which are either particularly unique in some way or repeated. There are a lot of variations on the basic theme available, but the previous paragraphs summarise the basic principles. The previous paragraph described the deliberate use of anchoring in a structured therapeutic situation, in addition to structured anchoring, random anchoring is going on all about us every day of our lives and plays a major part in our general conditioning whether we are aware of it or not. So, back to reverse anchoring.
Memory is associational in all modalities.
And that's not all. When the word 'Cat' was uttered, let's suppose the woman instantaneously had a visual image of her cat, Hector, sitting on her lap and purring. Likewise, next time she feels uncomfortably warm, will she think of Picasso, being gripped by the shoulder, her cat and the taste of tobacco. That is a fairly obvious statement of reciprocity, and might appear banal until one explores what lies beyond it and what meaning it has in terms of everyday life. Day to day, human beings tend to behave habitually - live in the same environments, visit the same places, watch the same TV shows, drive the same car for years, interact with the same people.
