What is Neuro-Linguistic Programming?

The software manual for the brain!
Most powerful Transformational technology!!

NLP is a process oriented psychology , which anyone can easily learn, adopt for change in self and even others. NLP is like the User’s Manual for the mind, and allows us to use the language of the mind to consistently achieve our specific and desired outcomes.

Arguably, the most powerful behavioural science on the planet, today.

“An attitude of insatiable curiosity about human beings with a methodology that leaves behind it a trail of techniques.”
– Richard Bandler (co-founder of NLP stated)

At the heart of NLP is a wide range of methods and models that offer an understanding of how people think, behave and indeed actually change.
NLP offers a flexible approach which brings about positive, fast change in individuals and organisations and empowers them to adapt to an ever-changing world. An empowerment that is greatly needed in an ever changing and evolving India...

NLP describes the fundamental dynamics and connections between the mind (Neuro) and language (linguistic) and how their interplay affects our body and behaviour (programming). Neuro refers to the Neuro-logical system and is based on the idea if not fact that we only experience the world through our senses and translate this sensory information into thought processes, both conscious and unconscious. These thought processes activate the neurological system, which affects physiology, emotions, and behaviour. NLP is about learning how to manage our neurological system for optimum results. Or to put it more simply NLP is about state control – controlling the state you are in. Linguistic refers to the way human beings use language to make sense of the world, capture and conceptualize experience, and communicate that experience to others. It is the study of how words mediate and influence human experience.

Much of NLP is about learning how to think more effectively and communicate more effectively with yourself and others. Not to communicate using a lot of superfluous and often misunderstood additional words...........
Uses of NLP

Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) explores the inner workings of the human mind; how we think, how we develop our desires, goals and fears and how we motivate ourselves, make connections, and give meaning to our experiences.NLP is like the ‘user’s manual’ for the mind, and allows us to use the language of the mind to consistently achieve our specific and desired outcomes.

When you learn NLP, you learn specific skills and patterns necessary to make positive changes, create new choices, be more effective with others, break free of old habits , self-destructive patterns and behaviors, and think more clearly about what it is you want and how to get it.
