What is NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) ?

"Neuro" - how we store information and past experiences in our minds
"Linguistic" - the language we use to communicate
"Programming" - our repeated patterns of thought and behaviour that help or hinder us.

By listening to our language, we can determine how our minds are programmed and therefore understand our thoughts and behaviour.

NLP is a proven tool for getting results and creating success in the world today. It is widely used in business, sales, training, coaching, health, therapy, and resource development. It will help you achieve excellence in all areas of your life.

NLP was originated by Richard Bandler (background in Mathematics & Gestalt Therapy) and John Grinder (background in Linguistics). Their first book 'The Structure of Magic Vol. I & II (1975, 1976) identified the verbal and behavioural patterns of therapists Fritz Perls (the creator of Gestalt Therapy) and Virginia Satir (the internationally renowned family therapist). Their next work modelled the Hypnotic techniques of Milton Erickson, MD, Vol. I & II (1975, 1976).

As a result of this work, Grinder & Bandler created their modelling techniques to symbolise the relationship between the brain, language and the body.

Books that describe this model are :-

Frogs to Princes (Bandler & Grinder 1979)
NLP Vol. I (Dilts, Bandler, Grinder, Delozier 1980)
Reframing (Bandler & Grinder 1982)
Using Your Brain (Bandler 1985)
