What is Neuro-Linguistic programming (NLP) ?

Some people call it the manual of the brain. NLP helps you to understand your mind, how it works, and how it affects your behaviour. It is a way of thinking based on curiosity, exploration, flexibility and fun. It has great benefits in business and personal development.

NLP has developed a set of powerful tools, techniques, strategies and models that may be applied to define and achieve desired states and identify resources across a wide variety of areas such as business, leadership, creativity, education and health to name just a few. NLP provides you with the tools and techniques to model human excellence in the areas of communicating, influencing, goal setting, managing change and understanding the use of effective language. NLP is an intelligent way of thinking about complex situations. It enables you to be more successful at everything you do and helps you get the results you want.

How is NLP used?

NLP helps you improve communication and (business) relationships and as a result (business) performance and the bottom line. NLP is a set of tools and techniques that help individuals improve the way they communicate with others. By having a clear methodology of expressing yourself you can communicate effectively, negotiate better, influence, motivate and inspire other people as well as whole teams.

Most is achieved by creating self awareness and a deeper understanding of human dynamics. By developing this deeper level of understanding you become aware of your conscious and unconscious limiting beliefs, which you can change into more empowering
beliefs.

NLP is not only invaluable as a methodology for developing self awareness and emotional intelligence, it provides you with a different thinking framework which can enhance your self-confidence. It can also help you to manage your mindset and ‘state' better.

Defining NLP

NLP is a multi-dimensional process that develops behavioural competence and flexibility and it sheds light on the mental and cognitive processes behind behaviour. It is an empowering set of beliefs about how to communicate with other people. At its essence, NLP is the study of the link between our nerves and the nervous system (neuro) and our language (linguistic) and how they interact and influence each other to produce either effective or ineffective behaviour. ‘Programming' is about carrying out a planned sequence of actions to get a pre-planned result. So Neuro-Linguistic Programming can be thought of as using language in a systematic and pre-determined fashion to achieved a planned result or outcome.

Short History

NLP was developed in the 1970s by Richard Bandler and John Grinder - under the tutelage of Gregory Bateson and with the help of Robert Dilts and Judith de Lozier - at the University of California, Santa Cruz. It started as a study into how psychotherapists and excellent communicators achieved results. They extensively modelled Fritz Perls, the originator of

Gestalt Therapy; Virginia Satir, a renowned family therapist, and Milton Erickson, the world famous hypnotherapist, to develop a set of techniques that would help therapists to become more effective. However NLP soon became a toolbox for improving interpersonal communication and its application spread to other fields.

Preferred systems

NLP helps us understand how people are different. We all have a preferred system through which we code our memories and experiences. Without us being consciously aware of it, our five senses of seeing, hearing, feeling, tasting and smelling are constantly receiving and processing information about the world around and within us. In NLP, we call these our representational systems.

For most circumstances and most people, the three dominant systems for mental processing are visual (sight, mental imagery), auditory (sound, speech) and kinaesthetic (feelings, emotions). The other two senses - gustatory (taste) and olfactory (smell) - are closely associated but seem to be less significant in general mental processing.

NLP helps to provides clues or signals that we can use to establish what a person is doing internally and therefore which senses or combinations of senses they are paying attention to. This gives us a valuable insight into how their mind is working.
