It isnot to give advice or be a therapist.  \n● Stick to the “Partner 5 Steps of Feeding Your Demons”. Don’t change the wording, give advice during the process, or ask additional questions.  \n● Guide your partner based on the ““Partner 5 Steps of Feeding Your Demons” not from the“Tracking Form” because it doesn’t have all the necessary instructions and may cause confusion. You could also use the “Combined Partner 5 Steps ofFYD & Tracking Form” to overcome this issue.  \n● Only fill out the “Tracking Form”(or the “Combined Partner 5 Steps ofFYD & Tracking Form”) if you feel comfortable writing while leading the process and your partner requests it. Otherwise you could have them fill out the “Tracking Form” afterwards as a way to remember and integrate the process for themselves.  \n● Your partner does not have to tell you what they are working with specifically. However, make sure you know whether your partner is working with a god or a demon before you start so that you know which word to use when referring to it. In the “Partner 5 Steps of Feeding Your Demons” we use the word “demon,” so make sure you replace it ifyour partner is working with a“god.”  \n● Confidentiality – don’t discuss anything about the process, the content, or your partner after the practice session has ended. Do not bring up your partner ’s process with them afterwards, even asa joke, unless your partner brings it up and wants to talk about it.  \n● In general when being a witness, keep your eyes open and on the person you are guiding the whole time. Follow attentively where they are in the process and adjust your questions to the information already given by your partner if necessary (i.e. If they’ve already said that it’s a little girl, you can omit the question about the gender) .  \n● Remember that they should not be talking to you at any point in the process; they are either saying what they’re noticing or talking directly to their demon or ally. Also avoid phrasing that emphasizes your personal presence, i.e. instead of “Can you tell me what you see?” opt for“What do you see?”  \nSpecific Guidelines for the Five Steps  \nPreparation  \nIf your partner is working with a demon in a relationship, remind them that the demon is the feeling they have about the relationship, not the other person. If they are working with a demon dream figure, they would work not with the dream figure but with the feeling that arises in relation to that dream figure. For  \nexample if a monster is chasing them in a dream, they work with the fear that comes up in them as the demon not the monster.  \nStep 1: Find the Demon  \nPay strong attention to what they are saying and remember to write down the characteristics your partner describes so that you can repeat the characteristics back to them in the next step.  \nStep 2: Personify the Demon  \nRepeat back to them significant things to remember; for example, when they are moving the energy out of their body, repeat the shape, color, and texture of the energy. Remember to use their exact words if you are repeating back to them something they have said. Do not interpret their words or substitute your own words that you think are more or less the same.  \nWhat if they are having a hard time personifying the demon/god in front of them?  \n● Suggest that they make a gesture with their hands to help them feel the energy moving out of their body and into the space in front of them.  \n● Or you can suggest that they imagine what the feeling would look like if it were personified as a being in front of them with a face, eyes, and limbs.  \nWhat do you do if an inanimate object appears?  \n● If they say an inanimate object appears, suggest that they imagine what it would look like if i","cbCainYLrqJHJXr1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainYLrqJHJXr1","pdf",313898,"English","# Preparation\n## Guide’s role and boundaries\n## Use of the Partner 5 Steps\n## Tracking form and combined steps\n## Demon vs. god wording\n## Confidentiality rules\n## Witnessing approach and phrasing\n# Step 1: Find the Demon\n# Step 2: Personify the Demon\n## Handling hard-to-personify and inanimate objects\n## When certain features cannot be seen\n# Step 3: Become the Demon\n## Addressing struggle and vague answers\n## Turning negative language into workable feelings\n# Step 4: Feed the Demon and Meet the Ally","[{\"question\":\"What is the guide’s role during the partner practice?\",\"answer\":\"The guide witnesses and holds an empathetic nurturing space.
