How does a GSR session work?
A GSR session works with your inner states.
The technique helps to understand what is behind our reactions, feelings and thoughts, and to identify the root cause of these experiences. GSR is based on the understanding that internal states shape our perception of the world and our behavior. By working with them, we change our reactions and interaction with the world around us.
Each session is unique and aimed at uncovering and working through internal blocks and limitations that may shape a person’s life path.
To learn how to perform GSR sessions independently, you need to complete Module 1 of GSR (Self-Work).
What happens in a session:
01\ Selecting a topic
The topic of the session can be any feeling, desire, goal. Something that has been bothering you for a long time.
You choose a situation or condition you want to work with. It can be any topic that causes tension:
You choose a situation or condition you want to work with. It can be any topic that causes tension:
Sometimes it sounds like a simple phrase:
- “I feel bad about…”
- “I have a feeling…”
- “I don’t understand why this is…”
- “It bothers me that…”
02\ Working with a symptom
To begin working, you immerse yourself in your inner experiences, opening up to your state as much as possible, and using the technique of Module 1, take a symptom.
Further work is built directly with the Symptom. It contains a number of scenarios (tendencies) that together form the general state of a person and his perception of the situation.
During the session, you work through each tendency step by step, moving from the most conscious to the deeper layers.
And when all tendencies are removed, the Symptom ceases to influence.
It puts everything in its place and calms you. You begin to feel more at ease and balanced within, making it possible to view the initial situation more clearly and respond more effectively.
03\ Results of the session
After the session, the initial feeling goes away. You return to a balanced, harmonious state. The situation no longer causes tension or discomfort.
This does not mean that the problem has “disappeared”. Rather a new perception appears within, allowing you to view the situation differently and engage with it in a healthier way.
You gain renewed inner support and resources, and your sense of inner balance is restored.

What is important to know:
- During the session you are in control of the process, meaning that no outside person can influence your work process and inner world.
- A GSR session is completely safe and can’t cause any harm
- There is no need to return to traumatic events – the GSR session works with feelings without forcing you to re-experience or relive them
- The technique is gentle yet profound: each session addresses the root cause of the problem
The result of the session:
A restored state of balance and harmony, increased level of inner resources and a renewed sense of clarity.
WHAT HAPPENS IN THE SESSION:
01\ The GSR session begins with a conversation with a specialist about your request. The specialist’s task is to determine what internal state or feeling is preventing you from achieving the desired result in your life.
02\ The specialist is specifically trained to identify a certain client’s feeling corresponding to the initial request, without adding their own ideas to it. This feeling, referred to as a “Symptom”, becomes the focus of the GSR session.
03\ During the session, the specialist identifies common scenarios within the Symptom and works through each one, helping to restore the system’s original resources. On average, there may be 7 to 30 such scenarios. The specialist voices each scenario to the client – they reflect familiar strategies, behavior patterns, attitudes towards others, and usual ways of making decisions. Clients usually find these descriptions strikingly recognizable.
04\ With the help of the GSR method, each scenario is transformed, opening the way to new, constructive, adequate and healthy attitudes and behaviors. As a result, the condition that bothered you before, disappears completely.
After the session, the client spends some time (from 1 day to several weeks), observing themselves and noticing inner changes. During this period, the specialist stays in touch, helping to understand these changes and direct the released resources toward positive life transformation.
