Neurolinguistic programming is a rather overblown name for a system originally developed in the '70s for 're-writing' core beliefs held in the subconscious mind. It is based on research that showed that people who are successful in various different areas have distinct 'beliefs' and ways of thinking which are not shared by otherwise comparable individuals who were generally unsuccessful in those areas. By areas, is meant different aspects of life such as social success, wealth building, personal achievement and so on.
The phrase, often shortened to 'NLP' comes from 'neuro' (of the nervous system, primarily the brain), 'linguistic' (language, the power of the language to represent external realities, and how that language affects our minds and the minds of others) and 'programming' (the way that incoming information is manipulated by our internal 'programs'). The basic premise of NLP is that the words we use reflect an inner, subconscious perception of our circumstances. If these words and perceptions are inaccurate, they will literally create problems and cause us to overlook or avoid opportunities, as long as we continue to use and to think them.
So our preconceptions comprise a self-fulfilling prophecy - "Whether you think you can, or think you can't, you are right" as Henry Ford said. The fact that our behaviour is a result of our internal 'programs' is fairly self evident. Given identical sets of circumstances, some people clearly are able to create successful outcomes, while others don't for one ‘reason’ or another. And these are not 'one-offs' - the same people tend to repeat their successes or their failures over and over.
This is simply because of the way they perceive their situations, NOT the circumstances themselves. If an average office worker were to stand alongside an experienced mountaineer on the edge of a very high cliff, the former is likely to perceive extreme danger and to experience paralysing fear and an overwheming desire to retreat, while the other sees a beautiful view and experiences a sense of elation at being literally above and away from the troubles of the world.
They both sensed exactly the same things, but their programming took them to very different places.
NLP is therefore a means of analysing and re-shaping our perception of external reality in order to alter our behavior. Perhaps the easiest way to think of NLP is to see it as a way to analyze the thought patterns of the mountaineer, and transfer at least some of these to the office worker. When this is successful, the office worker will then be able to stand on the cliff with much less fear and may even share some of the sense of elation felt by the mountaineer.
Of course this isn't any king of science fiction 'thought transfer' - NLP is simply a system of structuring language in such a way that it becomes possible to 'talk' directly to the subconscious mind using metaphor and other language forms to convey information in a way that is meaningful to the subconscious mind, in order to create rapid and beneficial change.
So what does this mean in practical terms?
In the nearly forty years it has taken to develop fully, NLP has become a subtle but immensely powerful tool for transformation. It can be used to change habitual ways of thinking by using very special forms of language designed to alter the way our subconscious minds interpret information - it can be used to change the way we feel about ourselves, our perceptions of opportunity and risk, the way we relate to other people, our sense of ‘deserving’, even the way our bodies look and perform. A core principle of NLP is that “People respond to their map of reality, not to reality itself”.
Much of the methodology of NLP depends on highly-trained therapists who are able to seek out root causes of problems and to devise therapy sessions that address each of these on a one-to-one basis. However, as NLP practioners compared notes over the years, certain common factors began to emerge in large groups of people who wanted to change their lives in particular areas, whether these involved social, business or health concerns. This has enabled sets of very common 'errors' in thinking to be identified which are common to whole groups of 'under-achievers' and which lead to an inability to make progress in the areas concerned.
So with these false beliefs identified, it has also become possible to create powerful language-based programs designed to show the subconscious mind that these patterns are erroneous, and to use the language of metaphor and imagery to create whole new belief systems without resistance. Unlike other systems for reprogramming the mind, NLP uses persuasion to gain the cooperation of the subconscious mind, rather than repetition and instruction.
NLP will often open the way to ‘paradigm shifts’ - changes in viewpoint which may occur suddenly or almost unnoticed over time, but which will change your behaviour forever.
Suppose you were starting a relationship with someone that seemed to be going very well, but then suddenly seemed to cool for no reason as the other person became more distant, didn’t contact you for long periods and generally seemed to have lost interest. You might experience feelings of rejection and hurt, possibly suspect that the object of your passions was seeing someone else, and could even end up in a state of self-blame or depression, thinking that the ‘failure’ is yours - that you are inadequate in some way.
But then you find out that at the time the relationship had seemed to cool, the person concerned had learned that their mother had been diagnosed with a serious illness, and the worry had caused them to put their life on hold. Suddenly you are able to reinterpret everything from the date of diagnosis onward in an entirely new light. And so now instead of moping in dejection and a sense of failure, or feeling betrayed, you can take steps to re-establish contact so you can provide whatever support you are able, and perhaps later resume the relationship fully.
Although your feelings and behavior will now be completely different, in reality nothing will have actually changed except your perception of the circumstances surrounding the relationship. And so it is with properly formatted NLP ‘therapy’: all that changes is your perceptions. But that in turn changes everything - especially how positively and effectively you will behave in response to events in your life.
So if you have stubborn ‘issues’ that have not responded to conventional self help techniques, now may be the right time to try the power of NLP.

Tools for personal development
Subliminal NLP Self-Improvement Audios
These new Neuro-Linguistic Programming Audios use unique advanced dual-layer amplitude randomization methods to mask two streams of powerful NLP suggestions, one delivered from each stereo channel. These are overlaid with binaural beats mixed into sounds of nature and soothing new age music.
The subliminally presented content consists of a series of repeated positive affirmations mixed with ‘word patterns’ formulated using the latest NLP techniques. These phrases would make little sense to the conscious mind but are understood clearly by the subconscious mind. They are designed to persuade the subconscious to actually want to change, and so to accept the positive affirmations without the usual automatic resistance.
Because the defensive automatic resistance reaction is bypassed, these recordings will produce powerful and exciting change - quicker than anything you've ever seen before. The Subliminal NLP method enables you to quickly change any area of your life, with absolutely zero effort.
There is no psychotherapy, no hypnosis, no meditation, no reading involved. Just create a CD or listen on your PC, MP3 player or any other mobile device while you get on with your new life. Headphones are recommended but not essential.
IMPORTANT
Please note that NLP can ONLY be effective when the patterning is in your native language. Please do not purchase if your first language is not English

Description: If you constantly think ‘I must lose some weight’ or ‘I must exercise more’ you are in effect repeating to yourself that something is wrong. This becomes a self-fulfilling statement, preventing you from actually taking the actions required at a subconscious level.
Even if you dislike some aspect of your body that you can’t change, this can give rise to feelings of inadequacy of self-consciousness that may prevent you leading a fulfilling life.
How we see ourselves is important to our physical and emotional health. Our most fundamental sense of ourselves is as a body; therefore, our body image is closely related to our sense of overall worthiness.
Because our body image resides in the mind, it can be changed - it can become our ally rather than our enemy. This amazing new subliminal NLP recording will help you to change what you can change and to accept what you cannot change, so you can move forward in life.

Description: You will almost certainly have come across people who seem to have exceptional memory and you might view such people as especially gifted.
So it may surprise you to learn that these people’s brains are fundamentally no better than yours - they just have a more efficient ‘filing system’. In fact, the ‘patterns’ that give rise to a superior memory can be instilled quite easily - any normal person can gain a super memory with the help of NLP techniques.
Having a better memory enables you to manage life’s challenges and perform all your tasks with ease. People with above average memory are always to be found in positions of power and influence.
The "Improved Memory" NLP audio uses simple NLP techniques that can help your mind connect new information to things you already know, massively increasing both your memory capacity and your ability to recall relevant information on demand.

Description: Everyone is born naturally creative - just look at the way that young children play and imagine whole worlds around them.
Experimentation has shown that the two different sides, or hemispheres, of the brain are responsible for different manners of thinking - the left brain is logical, sequential, analytical and deductive, the right brain is intuitive, holistic, subjective and above all, creative.
The problem is that for many people this creativity has been suppressed by education. To regain ‘right brain’ creativity, all you need to do is remove the suppression mechanisms, and this can be done by copying the mind patterns of naturally creative people using NLP.
Take sixty minutes out to kick-start your inner idea machine. Begin churning out new and insightful ideas, thoughts and inventions that will open new possibilities in every direction, with this powerful subliminal track.

Description: Speed reading is the ability to quickly absorb written information while still retaining full comprehension of the material.
The rate at which people can read depends on how they approach this task. Slow readers tend to read with their conscious minds - scanning one word after another until meaning emerges. Not only is this slow, but the conscious mind is easily distracted and slow readers will often have to go over a passage more than once to comprehend the words.
Fast readers do things differently. They scan whole sentences or even paragraphs in one go using a form of photographic memory, then move on to the next while automatic subconscious processes extract the meaning and memorise it. This is much closer to the way we hear and see, without having to look at each sound or word.
This stunning NLP recording is designed to restructure your approach to reading so that it moves ever closer to the reading patterns of trained ‘speed readers’ - bringing all the benefits of this entirely natural ability.

Description: Are you terrified by the prospect of having to speak to a group? Speaking in public is often listed somewhere near the top of most people’s fears. Yet there are others who actively enjoy being the centre of attention and perform at their very best when an audience is present.
If you fear that you will forget your words or become totally tongue-tied, or if you self-consciously fear people observing you closely, then of course your performance in public will suffer.
But what if you feel that everyone in the group is looking at you with smiling adoration and can't wait to hear the next thing you're going to say. What if you KNOW that what you say will have them nodding approvingly, laughing at your jokes and thoroughly enjoying your contribution? Then you won’t be able to get enough of it - your fear and anxiety will evaporate.
The difference is of course simply one of perception, and so can be changed using ‘mind patterning’ NLP techniques. This perception shift is just one of the NLP techniques used in "Improved Public Speaking". Confidence in front of groups will open doors for you that would otherwise have been kept closed, so start changing things right now.
