What is Neuro Lingusitic Programming?

“NLP is the use of models and patterns of successful people or genius that can be used to improve flexibility and choice in any situation in your life.” Aaron Waugh

“Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a broad field that began in the mid 1970s modelling excellent communicators – finding out how they did what they did so well. NLP models how we do what we do. In essence it studies the structure of subjective experience – how we create our own unique internal world from what we see, hear and feel, and how in turn our mental world shapes what we allow ourselves to see, hear and feel.

NLP is made up of three parts; What is NLP
Neuro is our neurology – how we think and feel
Linguistic is language – what we say, how we say it and how we are influenced by what we hear
Programming – is how we act to achieve our results.”
Reference; Joseph O’Connor, Leading with NLP

Our neurology, and unconscious –is “programmed” from birth by the things we hear, see, feel and our experiences. The words we hear, or use relate our experiences back to ourselves and others. When triggered, the programmes run automatically.

NLP provides a set of tools to quickly “recode” the programmes to change their impact in our lives, or to enhance them. NLP provides tools to give anyone the ability to choose their thoughts and feelings deliberately, creating useful and beneficial behaviours. It works fast because it is changing programmes at the unconscious level.

NLP is fast, effective and often affects immediate change. Through neuroplasticity, we know that the pathways and patterns of thinking, behaviours and conditions can shift quickly. As a result NLP is  highly effective with PTSD and other disorders of the mind, as well as goal achievement and removing limitations created in the mind. New Code NLP is primarily content free. We work with the pattern and code of the problem, not the content – or story – that relates to the problem, making it an incredibly useful tool for overcoming conditioning and traumatic events.
