What is NLP?
Neuro
This is the nervous system (the mind), through which our experience is processed through the five senses
- Visual
- Auditory
- Kinaesthetic
- Olfactory
- Gustatory
Linguistic
These are the language and other non-verbal communication systems through which our neural representations are coded, ordered and given meaning. This includes:
- Pictures
- Sounds
- Feelings
- Tastes
- Smells
- Words (Internal Dialogue)
Programming
The ability to really discover and utilise the programmes we run (our communication to ourselves and others) in our neurological systems to achieve our specific and desired outcomes
In other words, NLP is how to use the language of the mind to consistently achieve our specific and desired outcomes
Co-created by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in the mid 1970s the field of NLP is constantly developing and learning about excellence through the models Bandler and Grinder made of great communicators. They initially studied three successful therapists, Fritz Perls (the founder of Gestalt therapy), Virginia Satir (the founder of Family Therapy) and Milton Erickson (the leading exponent of Modern Hypnotherapy) and using an effective way of asking precise questions found out from them how they were able to get such consistently good results. Whilst initially modelling these people, over the course of the next few years they modelled many different people from sportsmen and women to marksmen and businessmen, and as such started to coin the phrase that NLP was being able to model the structure of excellence.
