PATTERN #14: META-ALIGNMENT

The final pattern for the APG training is the Meta-Alignment pattern. It is also the third pattern after the Genius Pattern that’s designed to help clean up any incongruency. The Meta-Alignment pattern is designed to provide a person a way to align their meta-level structures (beliefs, values, identities, decisions, metaphors, etc.) to create an overall sense (gestalt) of congruent integration which then leads to wholeness and well-being.

This is a standing up pattern. So run this pattern by standing up and inviting someone to come up and stand “facing their future.” Frame it that you will be inviting them to step back into the higher frames of their mind. There is really little need to explain the pattern before doing it. The doing it explains it well enough if you do it properly. So once a person is oriented to his or her future, and you have enough room so that the person can take 7 or 8 steps backwards, then invite talk about the next level and when the person is ready to step back into belief, or value, or identity, etc.
