This session uses an extended metaphor of a shoe shop to help the listener access different resourceful states linked to motivation and action. After a breathing induction and descent into an imaginary city, the listener enters a shoe shop with augmented-reality mirrors and tries on six pairs of shoes: purple riding boots (authority and leadership), grey trainers (preparation and exploration), navy formal shoes (routine and procedure), orange safety boots (crisis response), brown brogues (hard, pragmatic work), and pink slippers (rest, connection, and balance). For each, the listener steps into a mirrored version of themselves embodying that state, anchoring the feeling for future use. The session closes with the idea that these states can be switched between as easily as changing shoes, before a wake-up count from one to ten leaving the listener feeling optimistic, determined, and ready to take action.
