Assists, also referred to as "processes," are techniques developed by L. Ron Hubbard to alleviate the spiritual component of physical pain, shock and emotional trauma. Helpful to people of all ages, assists operate on the principle that one tends to withdraw mentally or spiritually from an injured area. Only by restoring communication with this area can one bring the spiritual element into healing, thereby greatly speeding the healing process. The "end phenomenon" of assists is the relieving of stress, physical aches and pains, or to orient a confused or upset individual into his present environment.

How to Make a Person Sober

Use of Process: For use in handling someone who is drunk.

Information: This process is not used to cure a person of alcoholism. It can make a drunk person sober in a very few minutes and the cause of his need for alcohol can be audited(1) out later. As society currently has no technology for handling the drunk, who is an embarrassment to the police, his family and often to himself, this process has social value and may serve as a line of cooperation and assistance to the police.

Procedure: Use the command:

"Look at that __________ (room object)."

A drunk is usually considered somewhat unconfrontable and he himself certainly cannot confront. One thing he cannot confront is an empty glass. He always refills it if it is empty.

Repeat the command, each time pointing out a room object, as often as required to bring the person to sobriety. Do not Q&A(2) with the frequent comment "What object?" Just get the command carried out, acknowledge(3) and give the next command. Run until the person is no longer drunk.

Notes on Running(4): Do not ever get angry with or strike a drunk, whatever the provocation.

Special Note: Do NOT allow the person to drive as the alcohol is still present in his system.

Assist for a Fight with Spouse

Use of Process: This assist can be used on a husband or wife after a severe fight where there has been quite an emotional upset and a threat of loss.
Information: This is another way of remedying a loss or threat of loss. It is for use on an immediate emergency situation.

Procedure: The commands are:

1. "Give me places where an angry __________ (husband/wife) would be safe."
2. "Give me places where an angry __________ (husband/wife) would find you safe."

Run these commands 1,2,1,2,1, etc., to end phenomena(5).

A Child Who Is Running Around the Room

Use of Process: For use on a child who insists on flying and running around the room.
Information: This is an elementary process which triggers his game of running around the room.

Procedure: Use the command:

"Run around the room."

Repeat this command over and over. This will bring him to cause over what he is doing. Run this until the child settles down and brightens up.

Assist for Sleeplessness

Use of Process: This is good for sleeplessness.

Procedure: The procedure consists of walking around the block until things start to look solid. There isn't any method to it, it just consists of walking around the block until things start to look solid. Walk until the environment starts to look solid.

Notes on Running: Even if you are totally exhausted and can hardly drag yourself along, go out and walk around the block. The first two times round the block you might feel absolutely that the third time is going to be so gruesome that nobody could possibly make it. Somewhere about halfway along all of a sudden things start looking solid and the exhaustion goes away and you start coming up scale and next thing you know you feel quite relaxed and after a while, why, you can lie down and go to sleep. It is so simple that it's almost impossible to convince anybody that it is one of the better processes.

Loss of a Person

Use of Process: This process can be run on someone who has suffered the loss of a person.
Information: The idea is to key the person out(6) of the loss.

Procedure: The command is:

"Find something that isn't reminding you of __________ (that person)."

Run this over and over, to end phenomena.

Method of Handling an Angry Child

Use of Process: For handling a child that has gotten angry.

Information: This consists of letting the child be angry, even if you are the victim.

Procedure: Let the child be angry. Let him act out his anger. Usually it will disappear quickly. When that occurs, that is the end phenomena.
