Abstract

Vocabular therapeutics is a linguo-cognitive behavioral therapy, which utilizes the principles of neurolinguistic programming
to analyze and alter choice of words, thus aiming to achieve optimization of behavior and outcomes. In this article, we share
a cyclic model, which we have termed the Vocabulotherapeutic Wheel of Rs. This includes Rapport building, Reframing
and Rephrasing of speech, Resilience building along with Resource husbandry and Restraint management, in a Realistic,
Respectful, and Rewarding manner. The Wheel of Rs should be incorporated in all health care-related communication.
