Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)

Neuro linguistic Programming is commonly referred to by its acronym: NLP. In general, NLP Training may be acquired through various workshops, distance and online learning programs; seminars and other comprehensive educational courses.

NLP Training comes in a variety of educational levels to match individual needs geared towards personal and/or professional development; including NLP training for life coaches and mental health practitioners.

NLP training courses encompass instruction that help students to master effective techniques for transforming weak belief systems and negative behavior; how to handle choices and bring forth resolutions between difficult individuals; how to communicate effectively and productively; how to gain control of emotions and how to use past experiences to produce personal growth; and how to positively reinforce self to develop overall well being and personal confidence.

NLP training certification programs teach students all the above; but also incorporate methodical instruction that assists practitioners in better understanding and helping clients to develop positive means to help bring about healthy resolutions.

Advanced NLP training may include but are not limited to specific courses including self hypnosis and hypnosis; trance; inner conflict resolution; past life and age regression; unconscious symbols; and other related techniques.

Neuro linguistic training programming courses vary in cost and tuition, and in duration. It is always important to contact schools or distance education programs prior to registering for any course. Critical questions one should ask about NLP coursework could include whether or not certifications are offered, continuing education, etc. Other personal queries may be whether or not one is enrolling in a NLP course for personal or professional reasons; this will provide a general idea to class support staff that will be better able to assist you with your educational needs.

5 Seconds To Smashing More Arguments With NLP

Last time the used car salesman pitched a lemon at you, he called the high price tag an “investment.” Didn’t sound so bad did it? He gift wrapped his words.

When you were fired, they called it a strategic downsizing. Now that didn’t make you any better off… but it sure sounded nicer than being “fired”

Euphemisms are efficient linguistic tactics to counter objections. The key is to redefine certain words in an antagonist’s statement such that his objection no longer seems so overwhelming.

Through redefinition we create new “frame” meanings about a behaviour by re-labeling a key word that’s part of the belief statement. The relabeling frames the entire belief statement with a new meaning.

Redefinition asserts that “X doesn’t mean Y, it means Z” Since X=Z and not Y, we now have a totally new belief statement. hopefully a more empowering one.

Here are some questions you can test yourself with to increase your flexibility at reframing: What meanings have other people given to this objection/ belief?

What other meanings could I attribute this behavior? What value could this belief have in other nations or cultures?

The secret to reframing: Simply replace one of the key words in the argument such that it subtly changes the sentence’s meaning.

1. “It doesn’t mean x, it means y”
2. “It doesn’t cause x,” it causes y”
3. “If you really want to see a case of x, consider.”

Let’s do some reframes, after all, practice makes perfect.

Objection: You were too tough on your employees; it’s unkind! How do you expect to motivate them?

Answer: I agree that they might be hurt at first. But tough words also have its place. In this instance, I’m actually not criticizing without just cause. I’m simply expressing my feelings so they’ll know where I stand. Would you rather I lied? You believe in assertive conversation, don’t you?

Objection: You’re tardy for the umpteenth time. You don’t care about me.

Answer: My being late doesn’t imply I don’t care. It means I had a lot of things to do at work today; it also means I want to get everything out of my mind so when I get home I can fully relish being with you and show you how much I truly care!
