Candellaith's tubes [anti-puppeting guide]

[Candellaith]

I noticed that I sometimes obviously puppeted my tulpa, when I made them move exactly like I moved myself. It seems that I had some trouble getting into parallel processing, not just in terms of audibility.

 

Just like some audio guides recommend practising overlapping voice (making your tulpa say a different thing while you say another) to help with audibility, I found it useful to do the same with puppeting, and I'm giving a few examples of such symbolics.

 

Get your tulpa's face really close to your own and breath through your mouth. Tell your tulpa that whenever you breath out, they breath in and vice versa. This will help you to break the mirroring habit and get used to your tulpa doing different things.

 

If this seems too easy, do the same but at the same time imagine that there's two tubes next to your heads and there is a ball in each of the tube; every time you breath out, the ball in the right tube rises and when you breath in, it goes down. It's the same for your tulpa except in the left tube, now try to imagine all the sensations with the breathing and at the same time get the balls right.

 

At first I had some trouble doing multiple things at the same time like this, but over time it got better and it helped my tulpa to learn to move on her own after I had trained movement overlapping like this.

8/12 GAT Members have approved of this to be shifted to the Tips section. However, this won't be shifted until the end of this week (ending next Monday). This is to ensure that if other guide submissions, whether or not they're approved can be discussed, and voted in a set of 10 guides in the sticky portion of the guide submissions.

Approved for tips and tricks.

Approved as a tip, however, is this training your tulpa to be not puppet-ed or for you to not puppet them?
