Anchoring in Daily Life

Anchors are everywhere and are often built up unintentionally. Examples of anchors include hearing a song on the radio which takes you back to a certain memory, or the smell of baking bread that takes us back to some childhood memories.

Often we are unaware that anchors have been triggered and therefore we appear to be happy or sad for no apparent reason. These anchors have been built up accidently although we believe that these moods “just happen”.

Anchors are not just Auditory (A), they can be Visual (V) using a gesture or expression, or created Kinesthetically (K) with a touch.

A sense of smell can trigger an anchor, but in general is harder to create at will.

Visual:

• Is the image you see seen through your own eyes or are you watching yourself in the picture?

• Is the picture still or do the images move?

• Is the picture in black and white, or colour?

• If it is in colour, are the colours bright, dull or normal?

• Are the images blurred or in focus? • How big are the images? • Are the images close, or far away? • What else can you see, and where?

Auditory:

• Can you hear any noises? If so, describe them.

• Can you hear words or sounds? • Are the noises loud or soft? • What is the clarity of the

sounds? • Are the sounds close by or far

away? • How long do the sounds last? • What else can you hear?

feelings? • Do they have a shape? • If so, how big? • Is the feeling hard or soft? • Does it have a temperature? If so, is it

hot or cold? • What is the intensity of the feeling? • Does it have a colour? If so, what is

that colour and what does it mean to you?

4. Don’t worry if you can’t find the answer to some of the questions above, as not everything may be present in each experience. You may also find that one or more of the senses (Visual, Auditory or Kinaesthetic) may also not be present. The important thing is to make the experience as real as possible for you.

Here are some quick tips on how to maximise the benefits of your anchor.

1. Whatever you use to anchor, be it Visual, Auditory or Kinaesthetic , it is imperative what you do is unique, and not a gesture that you would make in normal day to day life.

2. Try to create the anchor just before the experience reaches peak intensity. This is why it is best to run through the experience at least once before you apply the anchor, so that you can gauge the peak experience point .

3. The anchor must be easy to reproduce.

It is possible to have a number of different anchors that will replicate different emotions that you can tap into at will.
