A Short trance induction

A ten minute induction

Just a quicky – for those with the inclination to track hypnotic language patterns, see how many different ones you can detect. You might like to transcribe this one yourself and then record your own voice.

Only listen to this when it is safe to do so.

How to Resourcefully respond to criticism

Criticism – Ouch what a word! The modern meaning of the word criticism often has all sorts of negative connotations associated to it.

The word Critic comes from the Roman, from the Greek and its roots actually means to make discerning decisions and judgments. Or in other words to share opinions!!

When you can resourcefully respond to criticism – you take control of your own responses and so you will be able to objectively evaluate all information and opinions expressed as criticism and then decide if they will be of value and benefit to you.

There are a few highly effective yet very simple processes that you can use so you will respond resourcefully to criticism. By attending The NLP Cafe you will learn how to

  • Manage your response to the word ‘criticism’
  • Understand the intention behind any ‘criticism’
  • Change your state so you are optimally able to listen to what is offered
  • Effectively evaluate what is offered to you
  • And Teach the strategy to Others…

The NLP Cafe in Newcastle,a North East NLP practice group, is presenting

How To Respond Resourcefully To Criticism on 16th January 2008

at St.Oswalds teaching center, Gosforth 7-9pm and just £10.00

The NLP Cafe is sponsored by IntegrityNLP, Excellent NLP Practitioner training in Newcastle

the Meta Model Easier Made – Part 14

Its good, useful and certainly important to know what you really want. To know what you do want, when and where you want it and how you will know you have it are particularly valuable. Its easy to go and create a list things you want. Things you want can include material possessions, like cars, books and clothes or internal states like, increased motivation to achieve ‘X’, or to feel centered, now, it may be something like ‘more aptitude with physical coordination when I am doing ‘Z”. Its really necessary to be as specific as you are able to be specific about what exactly it is you want, that’s so cool! Its obvious that this specification about what you want, perhaps its something really easy and extremely useful like improving ones meta-modelling skills, begins a processes, both internal and external, that can bring about a realisation of what you want and how to get it, now, that’s really interesting ain’t it! And that is what the meta-model is about, being specific, exploring the assumptions and engendering response-ability. Socrates thought this was a good idea, if the ‘Socratic questioning’ model is to be believed’.

the Meta Model essentially does two things when used ‘as intended’

  1. It assist stuck clients to change – Therapeutic
  2. It gets high quality information – Business / Pleasure / Therapeutic

Additionally the NLP Cafe, a structured, Newcastle NLP Practice group will be open for its first event on Wednesday 9th January 7-9pm. How to resourcefully respond to criticism

Its a snip at £10.00 or just £9.00 if you book online.

Our NLP Practitioner course beginning in January 2008 and the current Integrity NLP Practitioner in Newcastle will uncover the Meta Model and those who are on our next Newcastle Clinical Hypnotherapy training will leave with a well grounded and practical knowledge of applying this process therapeutically.

the Meta Model Easier Made – Part 13

One of the things that makes Christmas particularly nice is meeting up with friends and family. The time before the holidays running up to that last day at work before new year – lush! And there is always that feeling of excitement and anticipation just before the holidays start too. It makes you think doesn’t it, about the whole concept of Christmas maybe even good old Yarwe, ( oops HaShem – dear GOD, wouldn’t want to make anyone or their religion take offense, after all this is the UK – Home to free speech and liberal attitudes PROVIDING that speech is politically correct. I don’t know why I hear anarchy in the uk by sexpistols? ), before that and now the semi -global adoption of ‘christian’ values and beliefs especially by shop keepers and those not so friendly little elves from the Iceland consortium making as much money as they can, forcing suppliers to accept less than they had previously agreed – Ahh the joys of human kindness. The causes of all these conflicting undercurrents of humanity may never be known but if you will put all that stuff aside then – what you make Crimbo and new year to be really is up to you – and I do hope ( and even offer a prayer to all receptive Deity’s, God’s and Goddesses ) that for you it turns out exactly the way you wish it to be while you want it to.

How to Create a Brilliant Future

Last night at the nlpcafe – Newcastle upon Tyne NLP Practice group, I demonstrated a new and complete process I have developed for getting what you want while ensuring you respect and preserve you values.

How to create the future you want for yourself using some NLP processes and a whole bunch of tools and processes that are just not NLP – although the NLP Police may disagree!

Drawing from ideas from Judith De Lozier ( at the NLP Conference )
and Christina Hall, I have created a simple and robust process to

create the brilliant future you want and

to ensure the path you create has a heart.

This is a process you can run on your own or choose to have someone facilitate your creating your own experience. It will take around an hour to do it properly and thoroughly.

Tips for Surviving Christmas

Here are some more of a series of tips that if you do them right will not only get you through Christmas smiling but the new year aswell!  These really are simple applied NLP processes.  For information about NLP courses in Newcastle and the North East click hereFor Newcastle and North East Clinical Hypnotherapy training click here.


Tip number five

Have you ever heard that old saying ‘Smile and the whole world smiles back at you?’ Its probably not entirely 100% true BUT
When you smile, a genuine smile ( not that half arsed stiff british upper lip ), people usually smile back.  You begin to change your own mood with just a little smile. Your brain and face get a little cooler.  Like Bandler said a long time ago saying the word ‘e’ or ‘ah’ over and over again have this effect. Its not new though, my Grandma told me to do it “Smile and the whole world smiles with you” – Cheers Stella – you knew it back then! For a lot of real science on this ‘smiling phenomena’ visit Bob Suttons page.

Tip number six

Holidays are almost upon us – hurrah!
Get out and walk for half and hour or more. There are literally hundreds of places, with trees, birds and even lakes that are within 30 minutes of Newcastle upon Tyne. The are also parks with lakes in Newcastle upon Tyne.  You will meet other people. As Hippocrates stated years ago “Walking is a mans best medicine” – Naturally this applies equally to men and women of both sexes. Wrap up warm and get some fresh air. Enjoy the left brain right brain contra-lateral exercises – yes – walking!
