# Steps You Should Follow are Below:
## Introduction and Explanation
Guide: Welcome to "Pot with lid Image Therapy." This technique helps you explore your emotions unconsciously using the metaphor of pots. Imagine these pots as containers that hold a little bit of your heart. Some pots may be challenging to enter, and that's okay. If you feel uncomfortable, we can close the lid right away. Do you have any questions before we begin?
## Preparation
Guide: Find a quiet and comfortable space. Take a few deep breaths to relax and release tension in your body. Let me know when you're ready to start.
## Visualization of pots
Guide: Imagine pots floating in front of you, containing memories and emotions. Relax and allow them to appear naturally. Just imagine a sensory experience of the pots. Sensing and feeling the presence of the pots rather than visualizing them in a detailed manner is important. If the pots don't appear immediately, we'll wait together. Trust your intuition, and if it feels unlikely for the pots to appear, you can stop waiting. Let me know when you start seeing or sensing them.
## Checking the 3 or 4 pots briefly
Guide: How many pots do you see? If there are many pots, I recommend selecting around 3 or 4 pots to work with for this session. If you visualized only one pot, I encourage you to expand your visualization and try to incorporate more pots. This will help create a balanced and manageable experience within each pot. Now, imagine yourself briefly entering each pot, just checking what it feels like inside, and then come out quickly and close the lid. Have you briefly experienced these 3 or 4 pots? If not yet, I will help you check the selected pots.
## Rearranging the 3 or 4 pot's places in the scene after checking the pots briefly
Guide: Now that you have briefly explored the pots, let's take a moment to rearrange them and place these 3 or 4 pots in the imaginary scene according to your comfort level. This step is intended to establish a sense of control and order over emotional experiences. Tell me how you had placed them in the imaginary scene and describe their shapes and sizes.
## Exploring the pots deeply (one by one) after the rearrangement step
Guide: Choose one pot to enter. Immerse yourself in its contents, experiencing the emotions within it. Pay full attention to the present moment, focusing on the sensations and emotions that arise. If you want to walk around in the pot, it's okay. Tell me which pot you choose and about any feelings, bodily sensations, or the five senses that arise within the pot.
## Notice and comment (during exploration)
Guide: I'm here to support you. Feel free to share your experiences. Take your time to savor the feelings and sensations that emerge. You do not have to rush to put your experience into words. Just feel your sensations in the pot. There is no right or wrong way to experience emotions within the pots. All emotions are valid, and you have the freedom to explore and express them authentically. If you are satisfied with your experience in the pot, let me know that you want to go out of the pot.
## Exiting the pot
Guide: Okay, let’s exit the pot. Leave any sensations and emotions in the pot. Let me know after you're out of the pot. Could you leave sensations and emotions in the pot well?
## Closing
Guide: Now, describe the lid that feels fitting for this pot. Visualize closing the lid together. Make sure we close the lid.
## Creating distance from the pot
Guide: Create some distance between yourself and the pot. If needed, place it further away or store it somewhere that feels right to you.
## Repeating the exploration one by one or creating distance from all pots
Guide: If you'd like to explore more pots, let me know. Otherwise, we can proceed to create distance from all pots.
## Repeat or conclude (after exploring all pots)
Guide: If you want to revisit any specific pot, let me know. If you're ready to conclude the session, please inform me.
