Traditional therapists or counsellers tend to spend a lot of time analysing and trying to fix the past and as
a result many people know why they have a particular issue or problem but don't know how to change
it. I use NLP to help you change what you are doing in your mind and body, which is determining how you
feel right now in the present, so that you can move towards what you want to achieve in the future.
How does NLP work?
We are all different in the way in which we experience and perceive the world. For example, two people can
be given the exact same message at the same time about some change which is to occur, be it in a personal
or a professional capacity and have different reactions to it. One person may view it as a positive challenge,
a change for the better while the other thinks "that will never work" or sees it as just yet another thing to add
to his/her load. Similarly two people are boarding the same flight. One person is filled with fear and the other
takes it in his/her stride.
So what is it that each person is doing inside of him/herself to have these different
reactions to the same thing?
There
is so much information coming at us all day long and from all angles
that it is impossible to take it all in. So what happens is that our
brain filters this information through the five senses, taking some
information in and leaving out the rest. Each of us filters this
information differently depending on which sense we favour i.e whether
we prefer to learn by seeing, hearing or doing. When an event comes in
through our sensory channels we process it by deleting, distorting and generalising it based on our our beliefs, values,
past experiences and memories, thereby creating a unique personal perception which influences how we feel, relate
and react to that event.
If you continue to do what you you've always done you will only get more of the same. NLP assists positive
change by using a range of techniques to re-code, re-pattern and re-program the way information is
processed and stored in our brains hence altering the emotional and physiological behaviours associated with it.
NLP provides us with choice; once you understand what it is that you are doing internally to limit yourself you can change
it and have choices in how you feel, think and react to events and situations. This opens up new opportunites and helps
you to achieve whatever it is you want to achieve.
f you feel NLP would be beneficial but still have some concerns, why not come to one of our free taster evenings. It is a great way to
experience the benefits and you can also chat to me & others there and ask any questions you may have.
