What is NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming)
?
NLP is a way of being in the world. It is not simply
a set of techniques to influence behaviour and ways of thinking. This
is a skill set using language and thinking patterns to enhance communication
skills.
All people use patterns of speech and movement and
we use our senses. NLP is a way of thinking and linking up the language
to the patterns of behaviour that run a person.

NEURO
LINGUISTIC PROGRAMMING
NLP
does not have a very ancient history. Its origins are
generally accepted
as being in the 1970's when John Grinder got together
with Richard Bandler.
John Grinder was very interested in Linguistics and Richard
Bandler was
interested in psychotherapy
They
decided to observe three great therapists and began to
understand how
they became successful and to model what worked on these
three practitioners.
They
wanted to utilise the patterns that worked for them and
use it in relation to their clients. It seemed that NLP
began to develop in two distinct ways:
 |
Helping
people to achieve excellence in their particular
field. |
| |
 |
Helping
people to think in effective useful and creative
ways |
