Just been to a fantastic introductory seminar tonight on Neuro Linguistic Programming(NLP).
Neuro-Linguistic Programming™ was specifically created in order to allow us to do magic by creating new ways of understanding how verbal and non-verbal communication affect the human brain. As such it presents us all with the opportunity to not only communicate better with others, but also learn how to gain more control over what we considered to be automatic functions of our own neurology.
NLP increases the depth and effectiveness of our relationships, beginning with our self and extending through personal and intimate relationships to our professional and work lives, and finally, to the therapeutic arena or working with others to bring about healing, change and growth. NLP provides the tools that enable this rich connection with self and others to happen.
Many of NLP's tools and applications are widely used in business, management, education, training and therapy. Many of us may have encountered and applied these principles in our life, without even realizing that it came from NLP.
I am truly excited at what lies ahead for me with this and look forward to sharing it with you.
I have to thank Dr Michael Bloom, a chiropractor in Melbourne who introduced a book to me in the summer.... The Brain that Changes Itself by Norman Doidge. It has roused my interest immensely in the power of the mind and the ability it has to change and re-wire itself.
