Abstract

Vocabular therapeutics is a mode of lingua-cognitive behavioral
therapy. Based upon the philosophy of neurolinguistic programming,
vocabulary therapeutics diagnoses a person’s mindstyle, through their
choice of words, and seeks to optimize it by reframing their language.
Here, we present a pragmatic AEIOU model, which explains this
therapy in a simple and straightforward manner. Analysis of speech
and exploration of intrinsic impediments to change is followed by
initiation of a conversation which offers realistic ways of positive
thinking. These are incorporated in one’s communication through
step-by-step upgradation. This model finds utility at all levels of
chronic care, from primary to tertiary.
