You could
think of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) as an
owner's manual for the brain. It is the science of how the brain codes
learning and experience. This coding affects all communication and
behavior. It affects how you learn and how you perceive the world
around you. It is a key to reaching goals and achieving excellence.
The 'Neuro'
part of NLP acknowledges the fundamental idea that all behaviour stems
from our neurological processes of sight, hearing, smell, touch, taste
and feeling. We experience the world through our five senses, making
sense of the information and then acting on it. The 'Linguistic' part
of the title indicates that we use language and other non-verbal
communication to order our thoughts and behaviour and to communicate
with others. The 'Programming' refers to ways we can choose to
organise our ideas, our sequences of repetitive behaviour and actions,
to produce results. So NLP explores the relationship between how we
think (Neuro), how we communicate (Linguistic) and our patterns of
behaviour (Programming).
Although
well grounded in psychological theory and research, NLP is first and
foremost about action rather than theory. It deals with the structure
of subjective experience, how we organise what we see, hear and feel
and how we edit and filter the outside world through our senses. NLP
is a model of communication that focuses on identifying and using
patterns of thought that influence a person's behaviour as a means of
improving the quality and effectiveness of their lives.
NLP is an
effective proven vehicle for accelerated human change, radically
altering the 'old way' of lengthy psychotherapy.
So what does
that mean?
Well, it means that by knowing how your brain works you can change it
so that is always working for you and improving your life and the
lives of those around you.
Who uses this stuff?
People from all walks of life use NLP personally and professionally.
Often called the "Psychology of excellence" NLP is used for a
multitude of reasons. For example:

Coaching will find it easier to achieve their goals, overcome their
problems and develop new skills, because they gain greater access to
their internal resources.
Businesses can utilise NLP
Coaching to greatly improve their sales and customer service as well

Educators can learn how
each child learns best by studying the verbal and nonverbal language
of a child. Education is communication of knowledge and experience
through which one can retain the knowledge. NLP is used to strengthen
communication skills of educators so that each student gains the most
in the shortest amount of time.
Counsellors can help
clients make lasting changes quickly and with lasting results. In a
day and age when long drawn out therapies with limited results is the
norm, NLP provides a fast and highly effective alternative.

with the use of hypnosis to eliminate any possible pain the client may
be anticipating.
Athletes
