Neuro Linguistic Programming
It is impossible to cram a definitive description of NLP into one sentence. It is fairly difficult to do the term justice in a paragraph! Neuro Linguistic Programming began in the mid 1970s when mathematics student Richard Bandler and linguistics expert John Grinder teamed up to study the field of 'human excellence'. By 'modeling' the language and behavioral patterns of great communicators they were able to learn some of the secrets of their success. They chose to model the most advanced hypnotherapist of the age Milton Erickson, Fritz Perls the founder of Gestalt Therapy and Virginia Satir who was the most respected and effective Family Therapist at the time.
Rather than just analyzing how successful people behaved and thought, Bandler and Grinder developed practical applications of their findings and were able to dramatically help others change for the better.
Today NLP is extensively used in many walks of life and is not just something confined to the therapists office. Sports men and women use NLP visualization techniques to achieve peak performance, sales-people and business managers use subtle language patterns to create rapport and hence increase sales. By changing the way you think, you can change the way you feel. By changing the way you see things in your mind's eye you can change your emotional response to them.
The downloads on this site use many of the techniques of NLP to help re-program your unconscious mind. You'll find yourself feeling completely in control when you take your exams, and because you wont be stressed out your memory will work at its optimum capacity.
As this technology is relatively new, there are branches going off in all directions as more and more people discover its uses. Timeline Therapy, Provocative Therapy, Design Human Engineering are just some of the exciting new techniques to be born from the seed of NLP.
NLP is a lot like sex. You can read a hundred books about it, but to really understand what it is all about, you have to experience it. I would strongly encourage you to seek out a 'taster day' seminar. Above all, you'll find that NLP is FUN!
