WHAT IS NLP?  

Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) was developed in the early 1970s in America by Richard Bandler and John Grinder.  They studied people who were highly successful in their particular field and identified the common factors (both conscious and unconscious) that contributed to their success.  NLP looks at and utilises the power of the brain, communication and habitual or “self-programmed” responses.  It is the science of how the brain codes learning and experience, so you could think of NLP as an owner’s manual for the brain!

Neuro – this part acknowledges the fundamental idea that all behaviour stems from our neurological processes of sight, hearing, touch, feeling, smell and taste.  We experience the world through our five senses, making sense of information and then acting upon it.

Linguistic – this part indicates that we use language and other non-verbal communication to order our thoughts and behaviour and to communicate with others.

Programming – this refers to the ways in which we can choose to organise our ideas, our sequences of repetitive behaviour and actions in order to produce results.

NLP techniques can be applied to just about all areas of a person’s life.  Personal behavioural changes, e.g. phobic responses, relationship issues, health, business, enhanced creativity are just a few of the areas that can be greatly improved using these techniques.
