Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)
& New Code NLP
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is the art and science of excellence, originated by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, based on studying top people in different fields.
NLP offers techniques of using the mind and body to increase choice and quality of life in all situations such as learning, business, coaching and relationships.
It encourages people to review their current thought, behaviour and language patterns and by dissolving self-imposed limits, achieve new levels of awareness and effectiveness.
NLP looks at how we take in our experiences, through our own neurology (neuro); how we communicate with ourselves and other people (linguistic); and how we change our automatic ways of thinking, interacting and behaving (programming). By concentrating on these factors together, we can become happier, more productive and successful.
Sounds Positive harnesses NLP as a key constituent of the comprehensive Cognitive Hypnotherapy approach.
The further development of NLP from its early stages saw Bandler and Grinder separate their work along two threads.
Bandler set off to study the design of human engineering, allowing you to create new strategies, skills and motivation. You learn the difference between the best feeling you've had and the best feeling you're capable of experiencing. It teaches you to how to control your feelings, their intensity and when you experience them. Richard Bandler often asks, "How much pleasure can you stand"!!
Grinder's further research generated New Code NLP. This stresses the importance of modelling and the need for practitioners to be congruent with the deeper principles of NLP. In other words, to be aware and effective in their own lives in order to most fruitfully help others.
Elements of New Code NLP are used by top performers to be 'in the zone' and maintain consistent high level results, by using the power of this unconscious processing. New Code NLP helps anchor changes in behaviour, ensuring that better choices are automatically made in the future.
