In this monologue, Christoffel Sneijders questions how people can tell whether a therapy is truly working, proposing a simple metric: after five sessions, does the client experience a huge or significant improvement? He argues that many therapies only address surface symptoms—like cutting the lawn instead of removing the roots—by providing coping mechanisms that mask underlying trauma. Using analogies such as painkillers for sore muscles versus torn muscles, he emphasizes that superficial relief does not heal deep wounds. Sneijders illustrates this with a story of a woman who, after prolonged abuse, gained weight as a protective coping strategy. He critiques mainstream approaches for acting like painkillers, offering temporary relief without fixing the core issue. To achieve genuine healing, he promotes his own programs: the Remaster Workshop, Emerging Trance (which works on the body and trauma), learning NLP to rewire thought patterns, and "clean‑cutting" therapy that tackles all aspects of a person. He concludes with an encouraging call to pursue real healing, happiness, and health.

Hey, how do you know that your treatment is really working? Or maybe it's not working? There's an extremely easy question for that. After 5 sessions, do you have a huge improvement, or really a significant improvement, or not? If it is this answer, just stop. And why is that? Because a lot of therapies we have are actually cutting the lawn instead of getting the roots out. Because just imagine, to make it simple, you had a past trauma in the past, whatever the trauma is, not being raised well, Being abused, being beaten up, being divorced, not finishing school, sacked from a job, and it hurts. What we most do to deal with that is creating coping mechanisms. And coping mechanisms can be on behavior. How do I act? Dress. What do I say? It can be also how we deal with other people. It can be how we think. So this should be right, this should be wrong. We cannot trust people. They come to beliefs, the kind of beliefs that you make up from those. And it can even be how we Feel and how our health is. As an example of that, so how our body is, that they once saw a lady who was abused by her granddad for a long time became as a protection mechanism much more than herself would be. So she gained a lot of weight. This is a coping mechanism. What does a lot of therapists do? But most of them Just work with some of it, and most only with, say, the health of the body, and most times somewhere with the pain we have. They're almost like a beautiful painkiller. And of course, if you have a sore muscle from being too much exercising and it hurts like hell, a painkiller is amazing because after one day you don't feel it anymore. And the pain goes away. But if you don't have a sore muscle but your muscle is really torn, then you can take as many painkillers as you want, it will not solve. Because first it has to come together again and then heal. So for me, what I see, this should be solved. To really heal somebody. So if you just have, say, a sore muscle, all those painkiller therapies are amazing. If you have a real issue, do real work. Because nobody, if you had a broken bone, would just take a painkiller and think it will leave. Of course you would fix it. Same for me, fix it. How can you do that? Extremely easy. Just follow my Remaster Workshop or my Emerging Trance, where we work on remastering yourself, getting rid of your limiting beliefs, how you think and how you feel. Emerging Trance works much more on the body and health, how we connect with that and how trauma also stays somewhere in there. Learn NLP so you can think about your thought patterns and how you connect as people and how your behavior does. Or do even clean-cutting therapy and touch really everything for yourself or to help other people. Love to see you. Take care and become happy and healthy. Ciao. Ciao.
