Italian term or phrase: per poi ancorarlo
Esistono molti di questi strumenti da adottare durante una conversazione che possono aggiungere energia alla stessa.
E’ anche possibile utilizzare tali schemi in maniera anche più ampia attraverso la comunicazione indiretta. In pratica possiamo utilizzare frasi e contesti che facciano svolgere alla partner il lavoro di sviluppare lo stato di eccitazione, per poi ancorarlo.

and anchor/fix/secure it
Explanation:
"develop/produce an arousal state that can later be anchored/fixed/secured"; in other words "made permanent".
It can be rendered in different ways, but I am quite sure about the meaning.
Hope it helps.

agree  James (Jim) Davis: anchor - if the metaphor works well in both languages, why not use it Raff?
