Everyone’s Talking NLP – So What is it All About?

This article was originally written by Kathy Munslow and posted on EzineArticles.com.

NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) was conceived in the 1970s by co-creators Richard Bandler and John Grinder. Since that time, it has evolved and transformed into what is now an increasingly common term worldwide.

As Chris Collingwood (renowned NLP certified trainer) eloquently describes, “NLP explores the relationships between how we think (neuro), how we communicate both verbally and non-verbally (linguistic), and our patterns of behaviour and emotions (programmes)”.

NLP is based on how we live our lives both consciously and unconsciously, which includes our emotions and our senses. It encompasses the understanding and transfer of human excellence, and it can be applied to all areas of our lives. For example, have you ever wondered why two people can be undertaking the exact same activity, yet achieve massively different results? NLP essentially captures the mindset of the high achiever, reproduces it, and allows it to be transferred into the mind of the lesser achiever.

So by concentrating on an area of our life that we want to improve upon, and by learning from our shortcomings in that area, we can use NLP to propel ourselves to much greater levels of achievement. This technique is called modelling, and it is the main area that differentiates NLP from psychology.

NLP is being used worldwide today in many areas of personal development including sports coaching, sales and business. It can also be used to overcome limiting decisions we made at some point in our lives that are holding us back. Even without being consciously aware of what that limiting decision was, or when it took place, we can use NLP to reprogram our associations with that decision, for greater achievement.
