The answers to these questions and more are covered in our NLP training workshop in Los Angeles, giving YOU the ability to take control of your mind and use it to its fullest potential. Your mind is a technical marvel, designed to move you thoroughly unhindered in the direction of your daily thoughts. What do you fill your mind with every day? What you focus on becomes your reality. Negative or positive thinking influences your consistent thoughts to become what you think about. Do you have the knowledge or experience to consistently shift your current way of thinking to influence your mind to a life you would really love to live?

What Is NLP ...

Neuro-Linguistic Programming was developed back in the early 1970’s by two gentleman; John Grinder Ph.D.- professor of linguistics at the University of Santa Cruz, and Richard Bandler – mathematician and computer genius. These men were asked by Gregory Bateson - (anthropologist) to study some of the therapeutic techniques of three of the best therapists of that time; Virginia Satir – family therapy, Fritz Perls – Gestalt therapy, and Milton Erickson – foremost clinical hypnotherapist. What they created was a model of their success of change work with clients. HOW these therapists helped individuals change negative habits and limited thinking in order to become successful.

NLP refers to the fact that we have a mind-body system, much in the same way you can program or RE-program the software on your personal computer. Our mind-body system is made up of our neurology or nervous system which gives us the ability to assimilate the world through our five senses, and linguistics which gives us the ability to communicate within the structure we design inside our mind of the world around us. When you put together these two elements, we have a human bio-electrical personal computer. NLP gives us the capability to re-program our software when we decide the results we produce are unfavorable.

Their quest began to uncover what had puzzled great minds for centuries. They set out to discover HOW people achieved success in therapy, business, sports, sales and education. NLP was created by studying the natural processes great achievers use to consistently produce exceptional results. By reproducing the step-by-step methods of HOW they obtained their results (the specific elements of a behavior or skill), they were able to teach these newfound strategies to anyone desiring to achieve this kind of success!

NLP, as a model of human functioning, takes on a very different attitude from the old psychologies of the past. We presuppose people work perfectly just as they are, that people aren’t broken and need to be fixed. One NLP presupposition states: "people have all the resources they need to succeed and work perfectly", because there isn’t a problem with people, but with their programming, and because of NLP, your can change your old programs.

Richard Bandler’s genius was in his ability to model anyone’s successful strategy. So he conceptualized NLP in this simple / complex affirmation - "NLP is an attitude and a methodology that leaves behind a trail of techniques."

Since we can only interpret the outside world through our five senses, NLP differentiates how we view our world and how we represent this information in our minds. In order for us to comprehend our world, there must be a system in place that takes external information and brings it in through our five senses to process.

   Visual: including the sights we see or the way someone looks at us
   Auditory: including sounds, words we hear and the language spoken
   Kinesthetic: feelings which include the touch of someone or something
   Olfactory: the sense of smell
   Gustatory: the sense of taste

This process of filtering determines how and what we focus on throughout the day, producing our state of mind, creating a resulting behavior, destructive or productive, positive or negative! What YOU focus on moves you towards pleasure or away from pain! In order to process any experience or event, we delete, distort, and generalize the information coming in, according to any number of several elements, which filters our perception.

Deletion - Deletion occurs when we selectively pay attention to certain aspects of our experience and not others. It's said that the central nervous system (CNS) is being fed more than two million bits of information every second. If we were to process all of this information as it was coming in we would be overwhelmed and thoroughly unable to function at an efficient level. This is where the process of deletion comes in. Our CNS operates as a screening mechanism enabling us to function at peak efficiency. Without deletion, our conscious mind would be faced with far too much information to handle all at once.

Distortion - Distortion occurs when we make shifts or alter our experience of sensory data by misrepresenting reality. Using this process of distortion we can create and enjoy works of art, music, and literature. It also gives us the ability to dream, fantasize, and plan for the future. By allowing us to manipulate our perceptions of reality, it enables us to create totally unique variables that powerfully impact our feelings, and therefore our behaviors.

Generalization - The third process is generalization, where we draw global conclusions based on one or two experiences. This process is also known as 'inductive learning'. At its best, generalization is one of the ways we learn, by taking the information we have and drawing broad conclusions about the overall meaning of these experiences. If every time we had to make a new meaning of a chair for example, when we entered a room, we would spend far too much time and energy trying to process our world instead of living in it. We also make an internal representation (I/R) of an experience, which combines with a physiology (body language) and creates a 'state.' "State" refers to our internal emotional state-of-mind (ie., a happy, sad or motivated state). Our I/R includes our internal pictures, sounds and dialogue, and our feelings (for example, whether we feel motivated, challenged, pleased, excited, etc.) So, a given state is the result of the combination of an internal representation and a physiology/body language.

Other filters such as time, beliefs, values, memories, attitudes, language, meta-programs, and decisions, all have an effect on our ability to filter 2,000,000 bits of information (per second) our nervous system is taking in, then distilling it down to 7 bits (plus or minus 2 bits) of information which is manageable. Imagine if we were to process this much information bombarding our nervous system all at once. Our brain would literally go into OVERLOAD and shut down just like our computers do when their systems crash. Have you ever experienced that?

In order for us to make meaning of our world we first must delete, distort, and generalize all of this useable information into small chucks that make sense ONLY to each one of us. This is why everyone sees, hears, and feels the world differently from one another. We cannot possibly understand how anyone else interprets his/her world. Language, in its most fundamentally basic form, attempts to describe how we see, hear, feel, and sense this world we live in and NLP is the basis of understanding how each one of us do exactly that.

By using specific language to change how our mind represents our internal world (thoughts), we can transform our external world (behavior) to achieve greater personal success! To truly succeed in today's competitive and changing society, personally and professionally, you'll want to master these dynamic tools of communication, which will produce excellence in every area of your life. These beginning fundamentals will start you on a journey to where you will literally be stepping into the frame work of understanding how we function, motivate, make decisions, gain empowerment and help you finally free yourself from limiting beliefs. LANLP will help guide you through our professional 12-day NLP training program in which you'll be certified as an NLP Practitioner under the guidelines of the INHNLP (International Humanistic (Neuro-Linguistic Programming NLP in Los Angeles) board.
