Posted onFebruary 20, 2012|Comments Off on Hypnosis Language Pivot Words – Nigel Hetherington
One of the hypnotic language patterns I
Have a particular fondness for are called
Pivot words or equally pattern interrupts.
Pattern interrupts with the purpose of leading
Someone, anyone, yourself to somewhere more
Useful to create new neural networks, possibly
By confusion or derailing a train of Thought you
Did and when you looked you hadn’t.
Confused … Yet … I hope So you can begin
To learn a pattern in an other than conscious
Way to go, its easy is it not?
But before I share a story I want to share
The patterns of the Words are a natural
Part of language and how we express A
Feeling can change at the drop of a hat
Or the drop of An expected sentence structure
Is known to you at an unconscious level.
Right now you ARE learning by example
So don’t try to figure it out just yet!
A spoken or written sentence during and
As you hear it, is being processed in what
You tacitly know … To make sense … Is to
Follow a semi predictable pattern that
You map onto … Experience … is what really
Makes the difference. Don’t trust me yet!
Walking down a road or a pathway you may
See a flower or A tree grows from a seed and
Evolves all of it’s Life is a collection of experiences
That can form … Our Impressions … are experiences that
Are imbibed by the nervous system and to
A large part create our know subjective reality.
OK, enough already … 🙂
Here’s the pattern …
[ Sentence … ] ending in a (a)NOUN(s) / OBJECT …
Example…
People often sit down at TABLES.
… (a)NOUN(s) beginning a [ sentence ]
TABLES are places where meals are served.
PIVOT the sentence ‘MEANING’ on the (a)NOUN(s)
This IS LIKE changing tracks half way through and
The expectation ( unconscious ) is lead to somewhere
Else other than expected … this creates a SPACE
Like this … PIVOT
People often sit down at … TABLES … are places where meals are served.
Think about it … After you have read the sentence
Out aloud to Yourself you can now understand
Something in … A different way … to learn is
All about experiencing something novel, new
Weird, unexpected. Remember the brain LIKES
Unexpected, weird, different and is likely to
Remember it all the more this way.
You can then use this SPACE to offer very helpful
And well meaning suggestions again and again …
So Why Do Wasps Eat Wood?
You have already learned this pattern at
More than one level. Trust me on this one!
Use it and make it part of how you
Communicate with intention to Yourself,
Anyone, Someone.
The story, as you remember … I will save
For another … Time …to go practice this
Powerful pattern of … Hypnotic Language
Patterns … can be learned more better by
Writing them down, saying them out loud
And On The Inside … exploring ways you
Can incorporate these in every day …
Conversational Hypnosis Skills … You
Are developing … … …

Posted onJuly 2, 2011|Comments Off on When You Are Learning At You Best
I recently had the excellent experience of a days off road rally driving Adventure with one of my bestest mates in the world. This all took place in Yorkshire on a WWII airfield. All in a rear wheel souped up purpose built car.
So all I wanted was to experience driving. To do it. Here is what happened.
One of the driving tutors did an introductory speech, before we were allowed Into the cars. This consisted of an energetic build up, which was very good and Then they went into ‘how’ a rear wheel drive car works and how we ( the participants – all 11 of us ) should drive the car.
I switched off ( you surprised? ) just after 10 minutes of explanations of what Was coming and how to do it – explanations of experience. I was literally Chomping at the bit, ready to get into the car and just do it. I want the physical Experience without all of the explanations. See for me, I much prefer doing Something and then maybe talking about it; After the experience …
Luck would have it, I had the same tutor as a driving instructor. After lap one They had me pull up and then went into an explanation of what I should do on The next lap. I know they meant well but their explanations where not helping Me build up my experiential knowledge of driving the car. So I told them that What they were saying wasn’t helping me learn to drive.
They responded that they had never been told that before and immediately Went into more ‘helpful’ hints and tips. At that point I simply said “Shut up … And help me”. I told them that their help while driving was extremely useful ( it was ) but all this ‘if you had done’, ‘what you should do at corner ‘x’ was to Me really unwanted at my present level of experience.
They said they would work with me and went into a story that they had helped A man with severe brain damage successfully drive the car by just offering tips While driving. I said that was a good idea; Still not sure about the brain damage But hey …
Well, when the competition started; Yes there was a competition, set up Between male and female drivers ( ??? ). With the real assistance of my tutor I Did come second place overall. Now, I was never for one heart beat interested In a competition on that day, I am guessing that comes much later when I have The skills to race! Vroooom vrooommm!
So here is my point. When we are learning a new skill, by choice or by Nececcity, there is nothing wrong and everything right with demanding an Experiential learning. When we were little, much younger, we learned to speak and walk ( things we are naturally excellent at ) by experience and not via verbal Description. This is my much preferred and valued learning style.

“When your sense of self is no longer tied to thought, is no longer conceptual, there is a depth of feeling, of sensing, of compassion, of loving, that was not there when you were trapped in mental concepts. You are that depth.” ~ Eckhart Tolle
When we come direct from heart space we create an energetic connection that surpasses the concept of empathy or our multi-sensory capacity. In doing so we create the neutral vacuum that two souls can share to explore, discover, test, challenge and shift. For us, this is our recipe for lasting and generative change.
Paula and Nigel ran a café in February with thirty change workers from our region. Within minutes a space or vacuum had been created and a sense of calm descended. A place of peace and an open invitation to a gate for learning was present. Trust was not in consciousness as exploration overwhelmed any sense of anything else egoful.
In this place the concepts of reflection and projection were explored, safely and deeply. In the co-created space, the learnings shared, revealed reflections to be obviously seen, felt and heard. Projections as a consequence were so apparent and evidenced by the triads within which each individual worked. In one group three women who did not know one another before and without consciousness had sat next to one another apparently ‘just because’ shared the same shoes and suit, all shared the same organisation in terms of one had been employed by it, another currently employed by it and the third attending an interview the following day for it. Further they all shared the same fears and depth within those fears, they all shared a desire to learn NLP and two learned that a couple of weeks later they would share the same learning space on a course they had both booked completely independently.
Feedback came pouring in over-night from co-creators who in sharing the same continued to process for enlightenment. Emails have poured in subsequently and we could share many quotes with you but perhaps this one sums it up:
“For me, it’s all about leaving rational thought processes behind & allowing myself to connect fully to my inner self & to simply experience what is happening as it happens without thought or judgement.”
In our continuing journey into the theme of creating heart space whenever or wherever we go, the passage of time and process of reflection by you and us, has now revealed the next steps to be taken.
And boy has it revealed such phenomenal learnings have come to us to share with you in a way that cannot not open you to the greater source that exists within. And when in touch and aligned with your greater source, heart-space emanates in ways that the conscious could not conjure or create by itself. In turn this provides the neutral vacuum that two souls (or more as we’ve experienced) can share to explore, discover, test, challenge and shift. Again in continuous discovery, this is still our recipe for lasting and generative change.
So in this second café Paula and Nigel will facilitate your exploration of the deeper sense of self in a very different and dynamic way to anything that you may have experienced before. If there is language to explain what will happen we would say this experience will take you beyond the idea of ‘personal development’ and into the realms of ‘self awakening’.
You will have the opportunity to co-create between us a space where learning is shared and multiplied by just the essence of your being.
So please come join us for the journey of a lifetime knowing that once entered life will never be the same again.

Spirituality In Coaching and Therapy – Newcastle NLP and Hypnosis Cafe Monday 7th February 7-9pm : Gosforth Library Newcastle NE3 3HD : £10 Including Biscuits. Book online below.
When we come direct from heart space we create an energetic connection that surpasses the concept of empathy or our multi-sensory capacity. In doing so we create the neutral void that two souls can share to explore, discover, test, challenge and shift. For us, this is our recipe for lasting and generative change.
So in this café Paula and Nigel will facilitate your unpacking of the deeper and more connecting ways in which yours and our therapeutic alliances work. How they are formed, how they grow and the effect and impact they have on our and the world.
We will open and share our thoughts and processes of how to develop co-created alliances by exploring the concepts of projections and reflections prior to, during and after a dynamic interaction. We will also consider projection and reflection in terms of attracting clients into your life for mutual healing and purposeful learnings.
Every person we meet has something to teach us, and every person has something to say that only they can say. We both believe we attract the clients that will help and be beneficial to our ongoing development. This may also include ‘healing’ your past. viz a vie we meet together to co-create something that is more than mutually beneficial …
From this place we’ll look at working from heart space that dynamically co-creates a change process as being fundamental in effective change and evolution work. We will show you how this offers a place that goes way beyond our understanding of rapport. Indeed it transcends the thoughts that if we shared some common value, belief, outcomes, goals and even purpose we can go anywhere in the relationship.

Posted onJanuary 10, 2011|Comments Off on NLP Collapsing Anchors Physically Newcastle NLP Practitioner and Clinical Hypnotherapy Training
One of the methodologies in NLP is moving from problem states or feelings into ones of freedom and ease.
Some people will regard this process as chaining anchors others may regard this as collapsing anchors. It can be regarded as both. More importantly it is really all about shunting anchors or states. That is to go from one state to another. This is accomplished by shifting physiology and some Thought Provoking Dialogue.
This is one way to make yourself feel better and let go of the past … while preserving as much as possible of the learnings … so you ideally don’t get into the same kind of mire again. It is also a way through repetition to train your body to shift at the first signs ( often unconscious ) of the problem state to a resource state.

Posted onDecember 6, 2010|Comments Off on Thought Provoking Dialogue Workshops Newcastle 2011
Thought Provoking Dialogue is a humorous, often irrelevant and completely client centred way of working. This approach is not for everyone yet a 20 minute ‘bubble’ session has the gentle power to help shift clients from problem states to resource states and create lasting and powerful change. In the ‘bubble’ anything and everything is possible …
“Humour can help to break old patterns and establish new ones”
So many research papers and books tell us of the positive effects of laughter. Apparently 20 minutes of laughter is equivalent to 20 minutes of physical activity, likened to an inner form of jogging. It may well act as a buffer against day to day stressful perceptions. However, laughter is not easy to come by in our mixed up fear driven world. Consequently Thought Provoking Dialogue sets out to challenge our sometimes negative mind-sets and self-limiting beliefs.
“Research shows that laughter can help to boost the immune system”
These workshops are all about therapeutic uses of humour and a Thought Provoking approach to real change. An absolute must for therapists, coaches, trainers and all people helpers! Phil Jeremiah was one of Frank Farrelly’s ( Provocative Therapy ) earliest and brightest students.
March 12-13 2011 : TPD Workshop : £125
April 9-10 2011 : TPD Advanced Workshop : £125

“Creativity and humour are closely linked”
Phil has been providing training in the UK and Europe for over 20 years to a wide range of professionals and organisations and has worked in the field of personal development for even longer. He was a qualified Senior Mental Health Social Worker, approved under the Mental Health Act 1983. Phil has extensive training and a wealth of experience in the fields of adult psychiatry, psychotherapy, counselling, hypnosis, brief therapy, NLP, EFT, EMDR, Life coaching and clinical risk assessment in mental health.
