People often come for help with physical problems such as pain, residues of injuries, infections, diseases and other issues. All they usually want is to be free of these problems.

TWR instructors are challenged to decide whether to simply address the symptoms directly, producing rapid relief, or to suggest looking deeper, to explore what information people’s inner selves might be wanting to bring to their attention. In addressing these options we are faced with conflicting possibilities. Which do we go for – the quick fix or the deeper delving?

The rapid release may be all that is needed to permanently relieve the problems. On the other hand, it might only provide superficial and merely cosmetic improvement that does not last.

The more penetrating exploration can addresses root causes and bring about more extensive healing. This can, however, be more time consuming, might be unnecessary and costs more.

While the choice is clearly that of the person who has the problem, the TWR instructor may be able to advise and suggest ways of deciding between the two options.

1. Explaining the options and possible outcomes is the first step.

2. Asking what the person who owns the problem prefers is the second.

3. If the choice between TWR Lite and TWR Deep is unclear, muscle testing (MT) can open up new insights. In doing this, caution is advised. How we ask the question is crucial to getting clearer answers.

Writing down exactly how we phrase the issues is important with MT because the unconscious mind that provides the answers is very literal. For example, “Is it for my highest good to go deeper?” could be a misleading question. It may be for my highest good to do this in another six months or a year but not good to do it now. So an MT answer of “Yes” to the question might lead us to an apparent failure of TWR to help on deeper levels, when it would have been a help at a later time. When we write down the questions, it is easier to spot such problems in our line of questioning.
 
4. Using TWR Lite may provide the answer, in and of itself. If people’s inner wisdom wants them to delve deeper, the intensity of the symptoms will either not go down at all, or will only go down part way. (Intensity is measured by the SUDS scale of  ‘10’ = the worst it could be, and ‘0’ = no symptoms.) When the SUDS is not going down, this is often a helpful invitation from the unconscious mind to ask questions such as: “Have you considered that there may be good reasons to keep holding onto this issue?” or “Are people around you ready for you to change so quickly?”

Such is the art of self-healing. There are often several options we can choose, and with experience we learn which are the best for us.
