Memory Re-Solution®: Working With Persistent Fear Without an Immediate Threat

Working with persistent fear in a professional context often raises questions about why some fear responses feel disproportionate, repetitive, or difficult to regulate.

This live online professional workshop explores fear not as something to suppress or manage, but as an upward-mobilising organising pattern — often maintained by earlier experience and operating independently of conscious reasoning.

Using the Memory Re-Solution® process as a reference framework, the workshop examines what changes when the organising impact behind fear is resolved, rather than controlled.

This is a professional exploration workshop and is not a therapeutic group, personal development session, or clinical intervention.

Who this workshop is for

This workshop is intended for:

• NLP Practitioners
• NLP Master Practitioners
• Coaches or facilitators with NLP training
• Professionals working with persistent fear patterns in a professional context
• Practitioners interested in resolution-based approaches rather than behavioural control

It assumes professional training and is not designed for a general audience.

What this workshop is not

To maintain clarity and appropriate boundaries, this workshop is:

• Not fear management training
• Not a therapeutic or clinical intervention
• Not a personal development or emotional release session
• Not an accreditation or certification event

No personal disclosure is required, and participants are not expected to work on their own material.

What is covered in this working with persistent fear workshop

This working with persistent fear workshop provides a structured professional exploration of how intense fear patterns are commonly organised and why they can persist despite insight, reflection, or regulation strategies.

Topics explored include:

• Why fear can arise rapidly without proportional present-day cause
• How mobilisation responses can remain active even when circumstances appear safe or resolved
• Fear as an organising pattern rather than a behavioural problem
• Understanding Fear as an upward-mobilising response that operates independently of conscious reasoning
• The limits of management and regulation approaches when working with fear professionally
• Why insight and self-control often fail to produce lasting change
• Experience versus organisation
• Distinguishing between present-moment triggers and underlying organising impact
• How Memory Re-Solution® approaches resolution
• A high-level orientation to how the process addresses unresolved organising impact, without instruction in the method itself
• Professional boundaries and appropriate use
• Clarity on where working with persistent fear using this approach fits within professional practice, and where it does not

The focus is on understanding what changes when resolution occurs, rather than how to perform the process.

Application contexts referenced

While this workshop uses fear as the primary lens, reference may also be made to other common organising patterns, including anxiety, anger, sadness, and guilt.

These references are used to illustrate how different patterns are organised, rather than to provide topic-specific training.

Format, duration & fee

• Format: Live online professional workshop
• Duration: 3.5 hours (including short breaks)
• Fee: £75

Relationship to training & accreditation

This workshop forms part of a wider series exploring common patterns of experience through a Memory Re-Solution® lens.

Attendance does not confer accreditation, certification, or permission to practise. Where further training or registration may be appropriate, this will be discussed separately.

This working with persistent fear workshop builds on themes introduced in the article “Why Fear Feels Intense Despite No Immediate Threat” in our Patterns & Experience Learning zone.

For those interested in the wider training background from which this work has emerged, Memory Re-Solution® has its roots in NLP and may be of particular interest to practitioners trained through Congruent NLP. For those seeking a broader, non-therapeutic and facilitator-led approach to understanding patterns of experience and change, the CongruentMind framework offers an alternative orientation grounded in alignment, resilience, and professional development rather than technique-based intervention.

Paul McGowran is the current rights holder of the Memory Re-Solution™ methodology and is actively developing the process further. His work is focused on integrating the approach into the CongruentMind framework, extending its application beyond individual change work into leadership and organisational development contexts.
