When I say cognitive intervention, I typically mean taking a more acute sense of self awareness in situations to control the outcome.
My understanding is that this is most correctly or noticeably implemented, through language.
i.e. the use of words or self-instruction.
Example: one technique taught in conventional CBT is, when tempers flair the patient says to themself, "stop, slow down, breath, go and splash water on your face".
i.e. it's a form of self instruction modifying the outcome, mitigating a potentially compromising outburst in temper.
........
Basically taking this concept to its extreme (i.e. implementation of words to modify or influence a potential outcome);
Firstly, when affecting behaviour, temper or emotion, we must affect its underwriting component which is, NEURAL FUNCTION.
Neurons function on the basis of electrical excitations or "action potentials", that is to say on the basis of electricity or, electromagnetism.
We know from physics that electromagnetism is WAVE BASED, and generates an electromagnetic field (referred to by some as the vibration a person has, or their "vibe").
Therefore, to most affectively impact neural function, the nature of the words we implement must be consistent with this.
i.e. be wave based.
The peculiar co-incidence here is that, EMOTION (an abbreviation for eccentric-motion, how a wave moves), also appears to be wave based.
So we could say, neurons act on the basis of 1) waves, OR on the basis of 2) emotion.
.........
Words with 1) wave relevance, or 2) emotional relevance:
So if we revised the English dictionary for words with the highest level of emotional specificity (or wave specificity, for our purposes they're the same), what would emerge?
Just out of curiousity, assuming two such words are illustrated on these two screen shots from a dictionary, what would they be?
Which word from each picture has the highest level of emotional specificity?
.........
Assuming they're identified, say we subsequently implement them in a situation.
I guess the simple starting question could be, could that theory unfold, a potentially optimal behavioural outcome?
If the premise of CBT is to control or influence ones own emotions in a situation, if we as above, implement self instruction with the highest possible level of emotional specificity.......... could that render a superior outcome, a potentially optimal behavioural outcome, or what kind of an outcome could it be?
Does that even make sense? lol
