Introductory to NLP

Saturday June 1st, 2013

Some people appear more gifted than others. NLP, one of the fastest growing developments in applied psychology, describes in simple terms what they do differently, and enables you to learn these patterns of excellence. This approach gives the practical skills used by outstanding communicators. Excellent communication is the basis of creating excellent results. NLP skills are proving invaluable for personal development and professional excellence in counselling, education and business.

This introduction to NLP is facilitated by Nadine Hanchar, a leading NLP Master Trainer. Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) was created in the early 1970s by Richard Bandler, a computer scientist and Gestalt therapist, and Dr John Grinder, a linguist and therapist. Bandler and Grinder invented a process known as ‘modelling’ that enabled them to study three of the world’s most successful and greatest therapists: Dr Milton Erickson, father of modern hypnotherapy; Fritz Perls, creator of Gestalt therapy; and Virginia Satir, the mother of modern-day family therapy. They wanted to know what made these therapists so successful and effective and to train others in their methods. What is offered today as NLP is the product of this modelling process.

The Introduction to NLP training covers:

  • Communication:
    • Understanding the NLP communication model
    • Learning how to communicate with yourself and others
    • How to create instant rapport and agreement with friends, colleagues, clients and even people you don’t know; build relationships using active listening, physiology, voice tonality and language

WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID ABOUT NLP:

Excerpt from science digest: “NLP could be the most important synthesis of knowledge about communication since the explosion of humanistic psychology in the sixties”.

William James is quoted…“The greatest discovery of our generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their states of mind”.

Julian Jayne’s said…“Language as a means of perception, not as just a means of communication”.

What does Neuro-Linguistic Psychology™ (NLP) mean?

Neuro: the nervous system through which our experience is processed via the five senses: visual, auditory, kinesthetic, olfactory and gustatory.

Linguistic: language and other non-verbal communication systems through which our neural representations are coded, ordered and given meaning. Including: pictures, sounds, feelings, tastes, smells, words (self talk) and more.

Psychology (or Programming): the ability to discover and utilize the programs that we run (our communication to ourselves and others) in our neurological systems to achieve specific and desired outcomes.

In other words, “NLP is how to use the language of the mind to consistently achieve our specific and desired outcomes.” Tad James Author and NLP Trainer
