HYPNOTHERAPY - What is NLP
Neuro Linguistic Programming?

"You already possess the most powerful tool known to mankind - the human mind. Unfortunately, it didn't come with a set of instructions, so you probably don't yet know how to use your mind to its full potential. This is where Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) comes in. Using tried and tested techniques, NLP allows you to understand your mind's potential, giving you a degree of command over your feelings and control over your thoughts you may never have believed is possible. Many of the techniques date back to Milton Erikson's days. In the late 70s Dr Richard Bandler put together a number of techniques and built a program called Nero Linguistic Programming.

What's it for?
NLP can be applied to business, health and well-being, counselling and therapy, relationships, sport, training and education, negotiation, leadership, presentation skills, goal setting etc. It is about how to run your brain to achieve the results you desire - a means by which people can achieve goals and better communicate. Think of something that you would like to change about yourself. It could be a phobia, a lack of confidence, a limiting belief, a dependency on smoking, a tendency to put on weight, a bad habit or even an inability to progress in your career.

Now imagine being free of that problem. Imagine how you would feel, what you would see, what you would hear, what you may think to yourself. Just how good would that be? Just imagine how much better your life would be if you achieve this.

Through using a range of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) techniques it is possible to make significant changes to any area of your life that needs the change and this can often be achieved quickly.

If you think in terms of the brain being a computer and our thoughts and actions being the software programmes, then NLP is a kind of software manual. Essentially, by gaining an understanding of how we create and maintain our inner thoughts and feelings when we have a problem, it is possible then to change them to new thoughts and feelings that have a more positive effect on our lives.
