“I’m not quite sure what it is that Austin does in Littlehampton HQ but he presents a brilliant body of work here, adding to and fleshing out, not to mention making practical a lot of the work of Lakoff. This work should be more than double its price. I told him to change it but ignored me – AGAIN.” Alan Whitton.

“A really fantastic set of learning materials. Andy Austin lays out his Metaphors of Movement model in a clear, well-organized way that makes it easy to learn. This is a significant development and an excellent presentation of it. There’s more to it than you might think.” Connirae Andreas, author of Core Transformation

“In his “Metaphors In My Attic” website, Andrew T. Austin demonstrates thoroughly how he masters the empowering nature of imagery language. There are more than enough videos including client sessions that give step by step guidance as how you can explore client’s metaphors for a rapid change. I am really amazed with the quantity of the videos and the detailed information in the web-site. I am so looking forward to attending his workshop in September.” Gaye Gunes, Washington

Metaphors in my Attic is the indispensable user manual to the system. Well-produced video clips explain simply, with a surprising depth of information and plenty of written support material for the text-minded. A distinct lack of hype and a reliance on illustrative examples makes the program engaging and compelling to explore. This kind of metaphor work will be an important therapeutic modality in the years to come and Metaphors in my Attic is a perfect way to introduce it as a well-defined system.” Philip H. Farber, author of Brain Magick
Here is what you get in the program, I know you will love it:
Section 1. Introduction

In which we explore what we actually mean by metaphor and just why this rather silly notion is actually, really, really important. Some might even say life-changing.

• Introduction to Metaphors of Movement (length: 12.29mins)
“Walking a tightrope” exercise
• A Minor Abreaction (length: 6.34mins)
“Mistaking effect for cause.”
• The First Question (length: 18.25mins)
“What is that like?”
• Metaphor Examples (length: 22.10mins)
“Typical metaphor examples.”
• Neurological Rationale for this Approach (length: 13.45mins)
“The brain stuff.”
• Kinaesthetic Denial – UPDATE (length: 26.12mins)
“Why a happy ending isn’t necessarily a good thing.”
• “And what is that like?” – UPDATE (length: 10.12mins)
“Discussion on why it doesn’t take so long to get to metaphor any more.”
Section 2. Developing Themes

By developing the theme of the metaphor, we get to delve deeply, really deep into the mind of the other person. If you get good at this, which you will, you will end up seemingly psychic as people are astonished at how you can possibly know so much about them.

• Developing the Metaphor and Issues of Scope (length: 14.09mins)
“The four directions – finding what is left…”
• Boundary Violations and Chronicity (length: 11.45mins)

“Changing state is never enough.”
• The Issue of Outcomes (length: 34.24mins)
“Finding out where you stand.”

x3 audio files developing the themes of Boundary Violations
• Session Structure – UPDATE (length: 23.44mins)
“How to structure an MoM session.”
Section 3. Container Metaphors

The coolest thing about container metaphors is that we can take what has been a lifelong problem and transform it during a single session. This isn’t something that we can necessarily do with the other category of metaphors.

• An Introduction to Container Metaphors (length 3.40mins)
• Relationships as Containers (length 2.50mins)
• Self as a container (length: 7.50mins)
• Fulfilments – UPDATE (length: 14.27mins)

• Growing Up (length: 6.54mins)
• The Finer Points of Growing Up (length: 18.51mins)
• Bubbles (length: 10.38mins)
• Bubbles (ii) – UPDATE (length: 4.51mins)
• Containers – UPDATE (length: 14.21mins)
• Partial Containers – UPDATE (length: 6.57mins)
Section 4. Status

You know that guy who thinks he is above you in the world, well, he isn’t alone.

• Status (length: 32.26mins)
• Centre of the Universe (length: 12.34mins)
• Status – UPDATE (length: 15mins)
Section 5. Stages, Treadmills, Objects and Obstacles

These are the metaphors in which we are going nowhere fast. Given the context of some of them, this is no bad thing as no one really likes going over the edge. But what do we do when something gets in our way? Smash it down? Let’s find out…

• Stages of Life (length: 10.00mins)
“Putting on a performance.”
• Stages and Awkward Positions (length: 5.58mins)
“Under the Spotlight.”
• Treadmills (length: 12.16mins)
“The art of not getting anywhere.”

“A burden to be carried.”
• Dependency (length: 12mins)
• Obstacles (length: 13.46mins)
“Things getting in the way.”
• Edges (length: 10.51mins)
Section 6. A Testing Time

In this section, I present brief client metaphors for you to work with. You may surprise yourself at how well you do. Like with all the videos each of these has a comments section for your answers.
