DESCRIPTION:
Iffy Piffy Biffy Boo Day celebrates the work of psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and expert on hypnosis Milton H. Erickson (December 5, 1901 - March 25, 1980). Iffy piffy biffy boo is a nonsense string of words with a powerful objective.
"Iffy piffy biffy boo" is a pattern interrupt, a communication strategy first explained by Dr. Erickson that breaks a sequence of behavior or thought without engaging physically. It is a way of changing the subject and refocusing attention. Lawyers, teachers, actors, salespeople, and leaders use this technique effectively to guide the conversation, regain control of a room, or diffuse an escalating situation. A pattern interrupt can be a sudden movement, a change in tempo, tone, or random words.
Nonsensical words or unexpected changes not only diffuse the monotony, but you switch the energy and reset the conversation. It is a "do-over" and pattern interrupt perfected! It is also hilarious watching someone attempt to repeat it back to you, and twice the fun if they say it fast! Try it.
Iffy piffy biffy boo is a playful version of a pattern interrupt celebrating Dr. Erickson's work. It takes the rut out of routine with a smile. Use iffy piffy biffy boo, or create a unique version for yourself. It is up to you.
Annually on his birthday, December 5.
