Beautiful NLP Training Newcastle 2024

Neuro Linguistic Programming, NLP Training Newcastle for you to learn the skills to be far more influential, nurture and grow better relationships and see with different eyes.

Your life is complicated, often difficult, sometimes rewarding and almost certainly deeply shackled to a job that you give most of your day to, five days a week, fifty two weeks a year for most of your life.

We live in a rapidly changing world that often feels increasingly divisive, much more uncertain with less and less control and right now there is more than enough to be angry, depressed and worried about. But there are many different paths you can explore, NLP being one of them.

NLP Training Newcastle 2024

Currently in the UK governmental infighting, deviousness and serious incompetence ( which is not confined to the UK ) is destroying the environment, creating wage slaves and promoting the most disgusting inequalities I can imagine. Liz Truss with her special financial operation, in three months, cost the UK 30 Billion pounds. The UK government wasted 100 Billion pounds in the last four years with literally zero accountability.

Employment creators such as the Oil and Gas Industry, Google, Amazon, Supermarket chains, Big Pharma make extreme, really extreme profits for Owners, CEO’s and share-holders and these do not trickle down to most people. Such companies use lawyers, lobbyists and loop-holes to avoid taxation and paying a decent living wage while they milk their golden cows.

They will continue to hoover up whatever they can, while they can, supported with legislation and governments via lobbyists and loop-holes continue to destroy our living planet. All in the name of capitalism, private enterprise and of course as much profit as possible. Especially the arms manufacturers right now – but let’s not go there.

So, you get it right? There is lots to be angry, depressed and worried about and these generalisations don’t even bring to mind your unique specific concerns.

Choosing to learn to apply NLP is one of the ways you can increase your personal resilience, nurture better relationships with just about anyone and learn some excellent coaching, therapeutic and communication skills. There is also the seriously possibility of permanently updating how you think, act and see the world differently.

What kind of NLP Training do you Want?

My preference is live, in-person trainings with real people. This is the type of experiential training in NLP I offer you. My pricing is explicitly clear and can be found in the booking information at the base of this post. You are also advised to look around at other NLP trainings to see what is on offer and discover the best kind of training for you.

You could explore ‘The Knowledge Academy’ where there are perpetual time sensitive deals of 40% off which reset to 40% as soon as the deal time is over or 70% on Black Friday. Taught by unknown tutors, a two day foundation in NLP will set you back £5000. Check this for yourself with this link.

There are the teach yourself NLP online courses for example UDEMY who offer an NLP Practitioner with life time access for only £10.99 for Black Friday ( normally £49.99 ) with life time access. Check it out here.

If you are looking for an NLP Practitioner that is taught in person with plenty of time to integrate the skills into your life then this NLP Training Newcastle may be a perfect match for you. One weekend per month with live Zoom support in between modules.

NLP Training Newcastle 2024

What kind of Results Can You Anticipate?

If you remember school there is a lot of teaching to the test. This is the kind of learning, if it can be called that, that fills you with meaningless facts and figures that are forgotten soon after. There is no test.

The learning that you will engage with is is focused on you learning to apply NLP by doing NLP. Expect learning by doing. The kind of doing that is immediately applicable outside the training room.

There is a huge difference between knowing about and knowing how. You will learn and embody NLP practice and application through doing NLP. Over six months you will have ample opportunity to play, explore and practice applying NLP in every context of your life when you choose to do so.

There are five key factors in NLP which you can embody

These are commonly know as the Pillars or Foundations of NLP and as such are supportive ways to enhance communication, connection and competence in all areas of your life. These apply to both other people and of course to yourself!

  • Enhancing and maintaining Rapport which means making a deep honest connection with just about anyone you choose. You will through practice, exercises and observation develop these skills.
  • Having a focus on the purpose of your activities when its appropriate. In other words having an Outcome Orientation in mind and shaping your thoughts and behaviour to help you achieve more.
  • Life, events, situations are often totally unpredictable so having real Behavioral Flexibility is essential in finding different and alternative ways to make your goals and outcomes turn into reality by ways of not being attached to a specific way.
  • Noticing that things change is nothing new, we do it all the time, at least unconsciously. Noticing the kinds of difference that makes a difference is know as Calibrating or Sensory Acuity in NLP. Being sensitive to small yet significant changes in posture, eye-movements, tonality can give you clues and cues that forecast behavioural changes.
  • As we are all interdependent, interacting and connected. What one person or group of people does will have some influence on others. Exploring and accounting for such effects is a general form of Ecology.

You can anticipate becoming a more fluent and congruent communicator. You can anticipate being clearer about your own thinking processes. You can anticipate having coaching and therapeutic skills you can use.

Do you want to live in a society where people know how to think and learn and have a useful skills and have learned how to care about each other?
– George Lakoff

When you are experiencing many of the anxieties and worries of being stuck
with your life as it is and all the unavoidable problems and frustrations this
will inevitably cause you, don’t you want the skills and mind set to break through,
move around or simply dissolve your current limitations and problems?

OR

Do you want to heighten you communication skills, improve your relationships with others and your self? Imagine how positively different your view of the world will be when you can harness the power of your unconscious instead of over thinking! Its a fact that 98%

Just thought I’d write you a note to say thank you. 

I really loved the NLP course last year and the effect its had on me and how I’ve been able to help my clients.
It’s only now that I can see, feel and appreciate the effect that you and my fellow students on the course had,
with the exercises we all did.  In the room, in the moment, I remember thinking – ‘that was good, I wonder if it will make a difference?
I till be great if it did!’  But not really sure if it would, or did.  Now I know the answer – hindsight is a wonderful thing.
What a fabulously rewarding role/job you have helping people have a new perspective on their life and making positive changes.
It’s hard to explain how I feel like I’ve changed, I just know that I have.
It’s so very refreshing and helpful to speak to someone who listens, and helps you understand your perspective,
without making a judgement or inflicting opinion.
I will keep my eye on future courses because I would love to spend more time learning with you.
Please feel free to use this in your marketing, success stories, etc, if its useful.
If you want any more recommendations/testimonials/videos etc I am happy to oblige
.” – Katie Warburton

When I discovered NLP way back in 2001 on an introductory course, it simply spoke to me and soon I could see my life already looking and feeling different.

I had no idea how much satisfaction and happiness this would bring me over the years as I changed careers to do what I love to share and connect.

You can read about how using NLP I went form a job I hated to a purposeful career where connecting is important and satisfying.

If you really want to make some genuine and honest shifts for yourself, you are up for real world applications with practice, you might not make a better decision to start 2023 in a very exciting and fun way. It’s lush and you won’t find a better value training in terms of quality and price.

You can check the various NLP providers price schemes. This is less than half of most others. I have trained with the creators of NLP and worked as one the creators assistants in Europe. This is exceptional value.

VALUABLE LANGUAGE PATTERNS FOR YOU

How can you make your communication more impactful if you don’t study language patterns? NLP is about Language Patterns being used to create great rapport and at the same time with huge integrity.

If you haven’t guessed one of my passions is the use of language to get ideas across. This is one one Erickson’s many definitions of hypnosis. “Hypnosis is a process of transferring ideas”. Ideas or experiences via story can and do become beliefs, more often than not unconscious.

We know this because we are a story telling species and that can be seen in our relatively late, some five and a half thousand years ago in the cuneiform of Mesopotamia. Our religious books are not text book but parables, stories.

Let’s take a very quick look at an idea that is generally accepted for the literal believer from the bible. The idea of Sin and Repentance. You know the slippery snake that convinced Eve and then Adam to bite a forbidden apple.

A Greek word, hamartia, which literally means ‘missing the mark’ was translated as per now as ‘sin’. There is no sin in missing the mark or going off track. Repentance in that same book is a translation of ‘metanoia’ which means ‘course correct’.

Words are powerful and they have consequences. When you can get your words, your communications to be truthful, trustworthy and to the point you can have much more impact.

2 VALUABLE LANGUAGE & BEHAVIOR INTERACTIONS FOR YOU

1. Begin with a Rhetorical Question

Instead of beginning with a statement, even worse telling someone ‘you need to know’ or ‘you have to listen’ or ‘don’t you think that …’ open with a rhetorical question. Specifically one where you are almost unilaterally going to get agreement or at least almost no opposition. This is from Frank Luntz.

How can you really improve your communication skills if you don’t have the tools? How can we trust politicians when they flout their own rules?

This is a form of Rapport and Pacing. There is nothing to disagree with and everything to agree with.

2. Alliteration

In order to help your clients, your prospective clients and anyone you want a message to stick with, use alliteration; that’s using the same letter or sound in a triplet or doublet of words. Again from Luntz and many others..

Better, Smarter, Faster
Maternal, Meaningful, Modern

Repetition make ideas more memorable so they stick

Newcastle NLP Course January 2020

NLP Practitioner Training January to June 2020 Life Enhancement

If you are anxtious or worried about your future you are not alone. If you are concerned about your mental health and well being you are not alone. When you are searching for the right tools to maximally support and enhance who you are and what you do, you might really want to look closely at learning NLP.

You can become a better communicator so you can become influential and feel more confident expressing your own points of view, ideas and with this much more likely to move towards attaining your own goals in life.

NLP Practitioner June 2019

NLP Practitioners 2019

You are going to learn a great deal about how both yourself and others think, act and process information so you can get on better with yourself and get on better with other people. The idea is to have more peace of mind and develop the soft skills and attitudes that you can use to make your life happier.

It is a life changer because you go on a journey and learn so much about self which in turn helps you with the tools and knowledge to help so many others xxxx. I can not recommend this course enough– Carla Lee

You are going to learn a massive amount of techniques that through practice you can use in coaching yourself and others; changing problem habits and creating new ones and being much more centered with who you are and who you can become. And its worth stating again, being happier.

 

Attention Attitude Achievement – Triple AAA

When you choose to attend this NLP Practitioner training you are choosing to give your Attention to being able to apply NLP skills and science withing all areas of your own life. Giving your Attention means you have the Attitude to grow, develop and apply yourself to enhance who you are and what you can do to realise more of your own ambitions and expectations in life. Attention and Attitude applied in great ways leads to much greater Achievement and this means being happier. Attention Attitude Achievement.

A life changer for me on more than one level, problem identifier when you didn’t realise there was one, exploration, challenge and resolve, aid to reflection of practice others a d self, improved ability to work content free. The journey you share with others and the people you meet on the way
Highly recommended.” – Adele Drane

 

NLP is Easy To Learn and Apply

You know that the most valuable experiences and skills in life take a certain kind of effort. You did not learn to speak, walk or appreciate your friends without a certain kind of effort. So NLP is very easy to learn and of course this takes effort.

You will learn NLP on this training by doing NLP, with practice of NLP and repetition. Your understanding of NLP will evolve the more you practice because this is not a theoretical subject; through doing you will both understand NLP and even before understanding ‘why’ you will be able to apply.

An excellent skill set to compliment my counselling approach. I use NLP greatly in my Foundation Degree teaching. Nige is an excellent trainer. Highly recommended.” – Rob Stewart McGinley

You are going to learn NLP by doing NLP. Its that simple.

 

Death With No Regrets

It’s one of those well know saying that the only things you regret when your time on Earth is at an end is the things you wanted to do but didn’t. End of your Story.

You can make sure, for sure, that not doing an NLP Training, life enhancement isn’t an end of life regret and you may discover yourself that adding NLP to your skill set makes the list of regrets as small as possible!

Take the plunge into new life and book your place on the January to June NLP 2020 training now!

 

Learning NLP is much more than learning NLP

You are going to meet some amazing people and make great friends. You are going to laugh while you are learning and you’re going to discover new and different ways to make yourself happier and much more resilient and ‘Anti-Fragile’ maximizing your efforts and putting your energy in the most optimal places for yourself and for others.

Learning NLP and hypnosis with Nigel enabled me to make big shifts in my thinking, feeling and actions.
It amplified my awareness about the interconnectedness of everything, and gave me the tools to help myself and others make a variety of beneficial life changes, and continues to do so.
And all the while…a damn good time with good people and great humour.” – David Hindson

When you are sincere and passionate about developing and enhancing who you are, make a solid solid commitment to having fun in your learning and evolution.

How to Beat Anxiety and Low Mood – Yawning for Joy

Practically everyone, perhaps you, suffer from both low moods and anxiety. This is a perfectly normal human thing to happen. Sometimes you need to be able and willing to do something to change your mood and change your state.

This is an advert for NLP Training in Newcastle, or more specifically the attitude that comes from your own personal experiences, not what other people say or tell but your own experience of what works to improve your life. This to me is NLP.

Learning NLP, Neuro Linguistic Programming can’t really be done by reading about it. To use NLP practically it has to be practiced. Practice means putting the right effort into your learning which leads to understanding. Basically drop the theory and grab the experience. Do and then discover it for yourself.

Yawning for Joy : Try it and Discover Yourself

Can you believe something as innocuous or natural as yawning can change your mood, relieve anxieties and make you feel good? If you are skeptical, I would have been, you can do this simple experiment for yourself and by your own experience really have both an informed and accurate opinion.

If you have ever had the real experience of Meditation, Laughter Yoga, EMIPlus, EFT, Thought Provoking Humour, Dancing or even moderate Exercise to name a few ways of genuinely changing how you feel: Then you come from both experience and rewarding effort in the doing.

You can watch the above YouTube for a history, some ‘evidential’ research of how I came to explore what happens when a person deliberately, that is consciously, does a lot of yawning. Ideally 20 minutes. Your mood will change, sometimes quite a seriously considerable lot.

Experience as lived changes you. And this shift in the appreciation of life is one aspect of learning NLP on a Newcastle NLP Practitioner Course that was massively influential in me going from a job I hated to living a very meaningful life doing what I love to do.

When you really are longing to discover new meanings in your life, potentially change your job or even wanting to life a more connecting happier life; NLP and it’s application, offers a very practical ( so long as you want to practice ) way to you helping yourself live your life better.

Newcastle NLP Practitioner training begins January 2020. Over six months, one weekend a month you can learn, apply and understand NLP and the attitudes that empower and enable you to live more of the life you both want and deserve.

When you are considering investing in your life and yourself in an NLP Practitioner training course in Newcastle, you may have some questions. I have been running NLP Trainings since 2005 and started my NLP journey in 2002.

Please do give me a call or email so you can find out what you need to know about a Newcastle NLP Practitioner Training.

Why Effort in Learning is Vital : From Know About to Know How

Anytime you go about your business of learning something new or enhancing current learnings there are some ways that can seriously, very seriously increase your practical understandings of your chosen subject. Learning doesn’t have to be dreary, boring or anxiety provoking. It can be fun, exhilarating and deeply meaningful when it’s done right!

Fear and Anxiety thoughts ( what if I get it wrong, I don’t understand, i don’t know what to do ) are the biggest inhibitors in learning when not utilised or reframed or better yet not there at all in the beginning. Beginners Mind.

Effort in Learning Newcastle NLP Practitioner

Learning is effortful and so it should be. You expend your time and energies to learn to apply your expertise and experience to make your own life better and perhaps with just a pinch of human connection, other peoples life better too.

There is a huge gulf between know about and know how

Deep learning is about becoming obsessed with your subject in the right way. Making time to practice, review and focus correctly on the inevitable errors and mistakes, correcting and as such nurturing your neurology and psychology to functional greatness.

One of my good friends was asking me about meditation. They said they can’t do it as their mind wanders. OK says I, do you want to learn? Yes said they. OK, let’s do this for 20 minutes ( I was offering an experience, which is easily facilitated ). Two chants in they were asking questions. We stopped there.

My old friend Steve often says the difference between the East and the West is in the West, generally people do to understand; which makes absolute sense to me. In the East people need to understand before they do. Like that old cartoon ( New Yorker ) of two doors, one leads to lectures about heaven, the other leads to heaven. There is a huge queue for the lecture.

Drinking in experiences is very different to the vicarious reading about them which is still many steps removed from denotations of facts. Read a book describing NLP mirroring and matching and you know about it. Do it, practice it and you have your own tacit, emotional and descriptive experiential data base which is all know about and up for review, revision and refinement.

I want to point out that there really is a grey area that consists of mental strategies and decision making where there is highly cognitive processes involved withing a skill. For instance strategies in chess, tennis and quantum physics and the modelling or drinking in of such skills can be very important.

Conversely, while hovering in the liminal grey space; what came first? The strategy or lots of experiential scatter which was then labelled and processed into a tacit flow diagram of how to proceed in situation ‘x’.

A Brief Summary and Suggestion to Really Learn

The poet Schiller in responding to an aspiring young poets question about style, meaning and creating wonders answered something like. You are bringing the cognitive hammer down to soon. Let your creative style pour out, let it flow, don’t think and then much later do the revisions. This is about letting the aesthetic, emotional creative side run wild first.

Another short idea comes from one of the Zen stories. This is about a monk, an artist who used to get very drunk. Dip his long hair into some ink and whip his hair over some paper, creating random, spontaneous patters. In the morning after a costa coffee and sober, he used to look closely at the patterns and take a tiny brush, add a little detail to refine his work.

Now both of these stories illustrate a very definite requirement for practice of the forms and techniques so they are known and doable without much thought, which requires thought and practice. To a place where fully internalised skills can flow and then where appropriate revisions can occur. A fusion of inductive and deductive learning to application.

Carl Jung describes his Intuition function as one where a person can see the possibilities in a given situation and having heard the stories concerning the evolution of NLP it was opportunity met tacit knowledge. This was then, imo, formulated into a process of modelling.

NLP Modelling is one of the corner stones or foundations of NLP Master Practitioner training in Newcastle. Incidentally taking place in Newcastle March to June 2020.

John Grinders NLP Modelling Model, for deep learning is very simple and effective when the right energy and effort is focused to acquire and refine new skills. This is the first three parts of a five step process.

  1. Find a genius in the field you want to learn.
  2. Copy to the best of your abilities* said genius.
  3. Apply what you can do in a similar context and verify you are getting the same kind of results.

* This is done in a ‘know nothing’ state which is equivalent to beginner mind. It is so simple. Just copy. No thoughts, no analysis except refining the copying or monkey see monkey do act.

In applying your newly acquiring and acquired skills, it is important to just do what you have absorbed, with little or no though until after the encounter where you can and should review, revise and refine what you are doing relative to your exemplar or genius source.

Newcastle NLP Practitioner training January to June 2020 for a fun, experiential and life enhancing training that will offer the deep learning and practice that supports the essential difference between know about and know how.

 

Dealing with Guilt : A Gestalt Approach

I can understand how the NLP Meta Model was coined from reading Fritz Pearls Gestalt Therapy Verbatim and how Uncle Fritz way of coaxing people to be in the present and his insistence in process and the Here and Now is a priority in Gestalt. This has roots in Zen, Spirituality and where possible the abandonment of Maya or the thought induced coma-vale which separates people from direct experience.

This is a post sharing Fritz’ method in dealing with Guilt and resolving it and completing a Gestalt. I am sure this really won’t work for everyone as you yourself have to define, or at least work out what Guilt means to you. Guilt is just a word which can have many meanings. Though I am quite sure that certain emotional affects including Guilt can be very satisfactorily dealt with using this method.

 

In reference to what Guilt is for you, I want to draw your attention to those almost lovable pictures people put on social media of their dogs who have without their owners presence eat the sofa or a bag of Winalott. They acted out of their nature and only afterwards felt the dogma or ideology of an owner. Bad dog.

This is what many, who I can regard as enlightened and specifically Nietzsche and Krishnamurti, will say there is not good or evil, there is just choicelessness when you act from and out of your spontaneity. With that said, lets deal with Guilt resolution by way of Gestalt and Fritz.

I want to preface this process for resolving Guilt by way of a short usage of the Hindu five cosha’s ( sheathes ) that construct reality. This is all to do with duality, complementary and the integration and acceptance of opposites.

Joseph Campbell discusses the cosha’s as follows:

  1. Food sheath, basically the organic body.
  2. Breath sheath, life force and cooks the food we eat.
  3. Mind sheath, all the mental stuff, good and bad.
  4. Wisdom body, very deep intelligence, cells etc.
  5. Bliss body. Atman.

There is a big, large, disconnect between the mental sheath of judging and making a specific meaning and the wisdom body, that aspect that brought you into being. The wisdom body holds all opposites, all at once but the mental sheath deals with pairs of opposites, good-bad, right-wrong and friend or foe, that kind of stuff.

Now, getting back to Gestalt and working through Guilt. Pearls says that Guilt in terms of Gestalt is actually about Resentment.  Again, remember for me this does not have to be about Guilt, this can be abut anger, hostility, loss and … well put in your own, you defined emotion. Rules, yours and others and the seeming transgressions.

Gestalt Guilt Resolution

OK, So according to Fritz, Guilt is about resentment. Find your guilt and find out who you are resenting and for what.

In this exploration ( stay with it ) and resentment is about your demands or you could say rules that are imposed. Find the demands that you were tacitly, and now consciously making.

Once you have these, there may be many, the idea now is to state them in the imperative and that means the command! In Gestalt this is taking to the empty chair, where you imagine that other half of an argument is there, right in from of you in the here and now.

This will be something like, “Stop, Do it, Talk to me, Put it there” – Imperative / Command.

Now this next step is what really does it for me in a good way. The sublimation or integration of the pairs of opposites.  Return to the resentments and Appreciate those very same bits and bod. Yes, appreciate them fully and completely. And go even more forward and tell that imagined person ( you ) what else you appreciate about them.

This may or may not be covered in the March 2019 NLP Master Practitioner training in Newcastle. There are linguistic refinements to be added and the language really has nothing to much to interfere with this awesome process of completing a gestalt so you can let go of the past and move more fully into the present.

  1. Acknowledge Guilt and Define it.
  2. Turn guilt into resentments.
  3. State your rules and demands.
  4. Express your demands as commands!
  5. Switch to Appreciation.
  6. Acknowledge more appreciations.

This, as a process, helps to move you more towards the wisdom body as mentioned in the five sheaths earlier. Moving away from the duality of thinking and towards a deeper wisdom that is your birth-right.  Perhaps even towards bliss. But one step at a time. Or not!

NLP Submodalities in action – Making change stick

NLP Submodalities. One of our natural and normal instincts is to move towards the kinds of experiences, habits and beliefs we like, which are good and beneficial and our other natural response is to move away for the kinds of experiences, habits and beliefs we don’t like, which are bad and not salubrious.

This should make immediate sense. The simplest of cells, of which we are largely composed of, demonstrate sentience. Sentience is like intelligence as commonly defined. Plants mostly turn towards the sun, showing heliotropism. Little monkeys,  deprived of their mother, show a preference for a furry warm counterpart and not a cold milk feeder, as Harry Harlow demonstrated.

NLP Submodalities

One of the many evidential stories in the excellent ‘Before You Know It’ – book by John Bargh describes how addicts with about an hour of training each day for two weeks, make statistically significant, long term change.

These people, all volunteers, were given a task of identifying photographs as either vertical or horizontal in nature and on recognition would either push or pull a lever. What was not identified to them consciously is that the photographs with their addictive substance would always be paired with a photograph that was to be pushed.

This was intended and indeed did increase the unconscious avoidance  mechanisms in people with respect to their addictive drug. This by no means was any sort of perfect cure yet was very significant in lowering relapse rates.

In this study, Reinout Wiers and his team helped people change their unconscious attitudes towards an addictive behaviour by pairing or anchoring the human ( and cell like ) avoidance behaviour, push away to their addiction, or at least a picture of it.

NLP Submodalities are classically the manipulation or changing of the smaller lego bricks of our representations of five senses. Or six senses in you include a sense of humour. For instance in the visual field, the submodalities include colour, distance, luminosity and visual-spatial location.

So as science, once again, seems to offer great validity to NLP techniques, in this instance a NLP Submodalities intervention, which NLPistas will recognise also includes a Meta Program, move away, move towards. You should also note the move away, move towards preference is as old as the hills and did not originate with NLP. And Meta Programs are not separate from Submodalities!

What, to me, is of greatest significance is this intervention was repeated hundreds if not thousands of times. This is where critics of such an NLP Submodalities intervention may say it didn’t work. More accurately the operator and the recipient didn’t work enough.

Repetition is critical to move any conscious skill into the unconscious arena. Repetition is the key to making this kind of intervention work and stick.

NLP Submodality Intervention – Making it Stick!

Firstly make a commitment to yourself to apply the time each day for a week or two to repetitively do the following exercise as described. I suggest doing this for twenty minutes a day.

  1. Make a mental image of the habit you want to stop. Close your eyes.
  2. Make and feel disgust. You know the face. Wrinkled nose.
  3. Physically push away the image of the habit you are going to stop. In your imaginations as you physically push away the image, see the image going off into the distance.
  4. Open your eyes. Smile, count to five and repeat steps 1-4.

My journey with NLP began around 2002-2003 and initially my interests were purely for curiosity and self development. I was ( and still am ) absolutely fascinated with the aspects of language and communication NLP has to offer because being better able to understand myself and understand others is a required life skill.

As my training and understanding of NLP continued I really did start to see the world through new eyes. This for me involved exploring some of my deep beliefs and old perceptions that were preventing me from living the life I truly wanted. This involved understanding and then changing old behaviours.

Perhaps its because I love learning and applying what I learn to make life even better that by 2005 I had completed an NLP Practitioner, Hypnotherapy, NLP Trainer Trainer and NLP Master Practitioner in that order.

Even then I didn’t know I wanted to change careers from a software developer to and NLP and Hypnotherapy training facilitator. I was combining the software job with working with hypnotherapy clients but not until I took a real good look at my life in 2005 was it that I decided to do both what I love and that can really and effectively benefit others too.

The beauty in learning NLP is that there is massive enphasis on practical ( not theoretical ) training so learning NLP is actually very easy and straight forward.

I don’t know, perhaps you don’t fully know or you have some very concrete ideas. Your journey will be fun, enlightening and you will meet wonderful people along the way.

NLP Practitioner Training In Newcastle – Help in Troubling Times

It might feel like freedoms and liberties are being steadily eroded in the current disturbing political climate. The attempted privatization of the NHS and the deplorable lack of funding in schools and communities. Basics such as food and fuel are rising faster than wages. An unknown and uncertain future with Brexit and world leaders acting like children at a nursery, all be it a nuclear nursery.

How we both perceive and act in our world has profound effects on our mental and physical health, our well being. It makes very good sense to have the tools and technology that you can use to inoculate yourself to much of the psychological stressors that this world seems to deliver in a abundance.
