In studying about relationships, I came across the phrase “words that speak to the heart”. The book pointed out how such words are a threat that often leads to someone being seduced. Although it is an older book, the idea is timely. you and your spouse are vulnerable to “Words that speak to the heart”. In modern society, this concept is addressed under with techniques known as ‘hypnotic writing’ and neurolinguistic programming. With these tools, the speaker/writer crafts their words to go straight to your heart, often bypassing your defenses and thinking processes. With each tool, the user is taking steps designed to make you do something. In most cases, they are wanting to sell you something, yet these techniques have been used in court rooms, business meetings and other places where the controllers are out to manipulate your behavior. With such tools, you are being worked over and in many cases, you do not even recognize what is going on.
When you are not constantly active in your thinking, you are vulnerable to techniques such as these manipulating your behavior. When seducers master these techniques, they are exceptionally dangerous. They know how to get into their victims heart and head. They know what to say and how to say it in a way that bypasses the normal checks and balances.
This means that they will be exploiting vulnerabilities that you were not likely aware of. Knowing about the vulnerabilities of yourself and your spouse is a way to protect yourself from these modern techniques of speaking to the heart while bypassing the brain.
