Neuro Linguistic Programming For Dummies

By:


Neuro linguistic programming NLP can be learned by dummies and by anyone for that matter once its origins and principles have been explained. It is wise to begin with a brief history and definition and then to understand the principles that will be learned.

Neuro linguistic programming was originally founded in the 1970's by Richard Bandler and John Grinder who claimed it would be instrumental in "finding ways to help people have better, fuller and richer lives". The word neuro meant the neurological process of our brain, linguistic was language and programming using language to achieve specific goals. The neurological process basically means the way in which our brains work, we receive information and then the brain interprets it and then reacts. Linguistic is a little more specific because it means the way in which our brains have been programmed since birth to react to certain words, phrases and situations. Programming means to use the way we react to certain words, phrases and situations to make us react in a desired way that is obviously beneficial to us.

Bandler and Grinder originally used NLP as a form of psychological therapy to resolve issues such as phobias, depression, habit disorder, psychosomatic illnesses and learning disorders. This concept has been so successful that hypnotherapists still use these techniques to this day with incredible results.

The principle of Neuro linguistic programming is that everyone has been programmed since birth. A good example of this is if someone told you to jump off a cliff the common response is, "no that is dangerous". Your mind is programmed to have this response when the words "jump" and "cliff" are in the same sentence. This triggers an immediate response that your parents taught you as infants which is "no"! This translates into every aspect of your life whether it is regarding dating, work, and habits that you have and want to change. By using Neuro linguistic programming you can change your normal reactions to by creating a new program in your brain that will react differently then the way you normally do.
