"Tsch" became "Psch" and inspired a Movement.

Good old 'Psch'.

My most effective Neurocoding technique! Or, as Cesar Millan says, 'Tsch'.

Terry and I volunteered at the SPCA in South Africa. Terry was involved with cats, while I focused on dogs. To improve my skills, I turned to the internet, where I discovered the delightful Cesar Millan. I can honestly say that I LOVE this man. Meeting Cesar in person is high on my bucket-list.

The origins of 'tsch' are beautifully explained by Cesar himself, so let's just watch the video:

As a NeuroLeadership Coach, I was immediately struck by how effectively Cesar employed the phrase as an ENERGY DISRUPTOR. It jolts the brain out of a hard-wired instinct, creating room for a decision that results in a more favourable outcome.

Not wanting to be left out, Terry began using the term on me! T somehow turned into P, and we ended up with a very stern "Monkey, (FINGER SNAP) Psch!". I always say she uses it whenever she feels the need to 'mother me'. (I gently remind her that I am not a dog and that I already have a mother!).

It did not take long for me to realise, from these first-hand experiences, what a powerful tool this was from a Neurocoding perspective. And so, it stuck.

But there is so much more to this story.

Cesar Millan inspired me to develop what we today call Bodygrid Therapy.

Because of his teachings, I began to ask myself: 'If 'calm-assertive' energy, can have such a profound impact on our relationship with animals, how much more important is it then, to our relationships with each other?'.

That question and many sleepless nights, lead me to one answer:

Thank you Cesar Millan. You truly change lives, one dog at a time!

Thank you María Teresa Favela de Millán and Therese May Kleu for 'tsch' and 'psch' ♡
