Life Scripts: A Creative Approach using the ChrisLin Method

Sometimes referred to as Limiting Beliefs, Life Scripts shape our daily lives and influence how we perceive ourselves and the world around us.

These scripts were first identified by Eric Berne in his work on Transactional Analysis. They create unconscious pathways that shape our self-concept, often formed in childhood and reinforced by the adults around us.

Throughout our lives, we unconsciously seek evidence to support these beliefs, even when they limit our potential.

Just as actors follow a script in a play, dictating their lines, actions, and attitudes, we follow life scripts based on our fixed beliefs. The danger lies in believing these scripts too deeply, as they confine us to a narrow view of ourselves and our capabilities, rejecting any truth that doesn’t fit our narrative.

For example, if your script says, “I’m stupid and always get things wrong,” you might ignore all the smart and clever things you do daily, fixating only on your mistakes.

So, what life script is holding you back from being the best version of yourself?

Bringing Creativity to all Practitioners

The often overlooked yet profound outcome of creativity is the personal development and awareness that emerges when you create a representation or symbol of a challenging issue. Even for those who never intend to use creativity professionally, it offers a powerful opportunity for self-discovery and deeper self-knowledge.

Unlock Creativity in Your Practice

Discover the power of creativity to gain personal insights and inspire meaningful change in your clients. Our engaging 2-hour workshops and Practitioner-level courses have already empowered over 4,000 professionals to uncover hidden patterns and drive lasting transformation for their clients.

It's Important to Know:

• That you will be experiencing the creative Method first-hand and working in pairs as both practitioner and client so you feel confident taking this into your practice.
• You will need your video on to fully participate.
• We request that you work on something real for yourself, (and not your clients work), so that you feel the power of this approach

Why Creativity?

When clients only use their conscious mind, they may be locked by their thought patterns or not be able to find the right vocabulary to truly express what is going on for them. And that means you may only have part of the story to work with.

Using Creativity as an approach bypasses the conscious mind and provides a pathway to the unconscious mind. And that enables feelings, thoughts, beliefs and values to come to the surface that would otherwise be hidden.
