How MOL works...

The purpose of MOl is to focus on present....It helps an individual exploring what he/she is undergoing at the moment or in presnt rather than talking about what went wrong or what would/could be wrong. It encourages him/her to express the thoughts/feelings and emotions that is causing distress, irriation in him/her and regulating his behaviour. So MOL does not demand for a behavioural change or changing maladaptive pattern from an individual. Rather it focusses on individula's present state of behaviour and helps him/her to redirect /reorgainze his control system by bringing back his/her awareness.
So the task of an individual in MOL sessions is simply to describe what they are aware of happening in their mind and exercising one's imagination is nt necessary for resolving conflict.This is how an indvidual reaches to a point of view from which they can genrate their own solutions to the toubles thay are in. So for this in an MOL session , it is very importnat that an individual just has to feel comfortable in expressing his emotions and thoughts that he/she is undergoing at the moment. In that case the therapy works really fast and a fast solution is reached. Otherwise if the individual is not comfortable with the thearpist, it would take longer time for him/her to bring things to his/her awareness which can cause delay in reorganisation of his thoughts and thus therapy may be delayed.

So in the next section we will be talking about implications of PCT.....
