NLP with Caitriona and Michele in the Los Angeles Area
Neuro-linguistic Programing – has been around for nearly forty years. We both used it in our hypnotherapy-hypnosis practice in Los Angeles years ago. Our use of it has changed since then, jsut as NLP itself has changed over the years. It evolved from the work of some of the most outstanding and brilliant innovators in psychology, personal change, hypnosis, cybernetics, and linguistics – though its scope goes beyond all of those fields.
NLP is best understood as a meta discipline, rather than simply as another transformational modality, because it can be applied usefully to almost any discipline and modality. Not only will that discipline be enhanced, but NLP will expand to the degree that the discipline in question illuminates it. Like the best creative disciplines, NLP has become more accessible over time, and more applicable as a real-life tool for effective personal transformation. New research and developments in brain science simply confirms what was already known through the practice of NLP; affirming several decades of revolutionary psychological and personal change work. It has been effectively adapted beyond the therapy office, for use on the sports field, in sales, in business and leadership, in the classroom, and in the arts.
NLP is above all a mindset. It presupposes that anything that you can imagine for yourself is possible; or at the very least, by imagining it to be so, you can stretch beyond previously imagined limitations. Then it sets about helping you learn how you can turn what you imagine into a reality.
Neuro means how we process information through our neurology, the five external senses and our thinking.
Linguistic is how we communicate and process information and meanings through language and internal representation.
Programming is like a play-list or a computer program. When you know how you can change it, it’s easy to do so, in countless ways, any time you want.
Too good to be true?
Think of NLP as a meta-discipline, infinitely adaptable, to enhances other disciplines and practices – like the practice of doing what you are most skilled at doing, or playing a musical instrument, running an organization, communicating with clients, family, or friends.
It so much about techniques – though there are an abundance of techniques that are truly astonishing in their effectiveness, techniques that can bring about profound lasting change. It is the mindset through which those techniques are created.
A simple example: there was a time when it was considered that it had to take weeks, if not months, to cure a phobia or certain kinds of addictions. Now such things can be accomplished in a matter of minutes. Does that sound unbelievable? The discipline of NLP has been tried and tested for forty-years. In that time has influenced almost every discipline where communication is important, and every discipline where improvement in performance is key.
It is an exploration of change, difference, and the ways we represent the world to ourselves internally. You are not limited to the blueprint you developed early on. If phobias and addictions can be transformed in a few minutes, what can be done with limiting patterns of thought and self-negating emotions?
Some people consider these tools to be the closest thing we have to magic! In the context of mentoring and business coaching, there are many ways for this magic to be applied – to change limiting beliefs, to transform emotions, to eradicate self-destructive habits, to develop self-confidence and internally stimulated motivation, and especially to shed light on and transform incongruities and conflicts in personal values.
