NLP has been know as “The New Technology Of Achievement.” So why is it that many NLP Practitioners and Master Practitioners are still often a bit unhappy or not living their dreams fully?

This months practice group will be an exploration into remembering and realising the kinds of experiences that are really worth while and important to you. This will be done with due regard to personal and general ecology … and … at the same time … an invitation to re-discover the parts of you that can dare to dream.

All of the really successful people I know have two things in common - no matter what they say these days.

They are dreamers, they have created and are living their dream through dreaming and work … and quite often hard work.

Often times these values may not be in concious awareness and we wander like an explorer without a compass.

When we know what our values are then we can use them to improve our decisions, motivate ourselves and construct a future that really works for us.

Because they are associated with worth, meaning and desire, values are a primary source of motivation in people’s lives. When peoples values are met or matched, they feel a sense of satisfaction, harmony or rapport. When  their values are not met, people often feel dissatisfied, incongruent or violated
Robert Dilts

In this NLP Cafe practice group on Wednesday January 20th we will use a simple process to elicit and sort our highest values. Then use that information to improve our decisions and make our goals and outcomes even more juicy and enticing.

A man in Time Square in New York wants to get to the concert and sees a man carrying a violin case.

He asks: “How do you get to Carnegie Hall?”.

“Practice, practice, practice” is the reply.

Like many good jokes it makes a serious point. Some skills need practice. One form of practice is mental rehearsal, which has been used by sports people in particular to improve their performance by playing out a game or a race in advance to prepare themselves for event when it actually happens.

NLP has an optimised strategy for mental rehearsal for developing and practising new skills; called ‘The New Behaviour Generator’.

In it’s original form it can be a little dry and mechanistic. What if we could juice it up with some of the feelings that would make it more likely that we would get the result we want with style and resourcefulness?

The Good Feeling of Practice Well Done is a process developed by Andy Hunt based on the New Behaviour Generator and incorporating states and values into the process to give it that extra juice.

You can learn and apply this new process at the October NLP Café on Wednesday October 21st at 7 pm in St Oswald’s Hospice Teaching Centre, Gosforth, Newcastle upon Tyne.

Some experience of NLP is not essential but would be very helpful.

All this and tea and biscuits for just £9.00 booking in advance online or £10 on the night.

This often happens when we are young. These events are often profound learning experiences for us and the conclusions or decisions we make about them can affect us for the rest of our lives.

If only we had felt more resourceful we could have handled that situation so much better than we did and things would be different now.

Fortunately there is a way that we can go back and resource ourselves for those difficult experiences and re-live them in a much more productive way. And by changing our experience of the past we can change our present and future experiences.

The Decision Destroyer is an NLP process invented by Richard Bandler one of the co-founders of NLP designed to help you repair old difficulties and move on without being hampered by the past.

At the NLP Cafe on September 16th in St Oswald’s Teaching Centre, Gosforth, Andy Hunt will be demonstrating the Decision Destroyer and showing you how to use this process to undo old mistakes. Some experience of NLP is not essential but would be very helpful.

If like me and many other people you have been enjoying the summer sun and blue sky’s here in Newcastle upon Tyne, you might also have been enjoying how all this amazingly good weather gets people out of the house and brings us together.

Now speaking of getting out of the house and people coming together, have you ever considered how valuable it is to be able to build new relationships and improve existing ones?

All to often, myself included, I find people can get way to bogged down in work and the things that ‘you have to do’ and quite literally put the most important relationships with friends, family and partners on the back burner.

In any situation be it business, with friends or partners being able to connect and build even better relationships is an invaluable skill.

And, by using some simple tools, building relationships becomes a very learnable skill.

Whatever your job or interest is, you need to be able to connect with people and to be able to build great relationships and this is the ability to connect deeply with people when you choose to do so.

And how do you connect deeply with people?  NLP of course!

Now, you have probably had the experience of meeting some people who you really get on with famously, they are warm, seem to say all the right things. They inspire trust and friendship too … you have also likely had the opposite kind of experience with other people too …

Whatever kinds of experiences you have had in terms of connecting ( or not ) and building amazing relationships ( or not ) you will be aware that having the choice to connect deeply and build better relationships is an amazing skill that opens up a massive possibilities and opportunities for both you and the all people you meet.

So, with this in mind, you are invited to consider for yourself and the important people in your life, how further developing your skills and ability to connect and relate to others will improve your life.

With that in mind, we invite you to come to The NLP Cafe because we want those of you who are interested in connecting and building better relationships with others to have the tools to make it easier to connect more deeply with people.

And as you might expect we have scheduled the next NLP Cafe - Building Better Relationships For Summer - for this month in June just in time to for summer and the wonderful opertunities to build better relationships and really connect with people. So while the time is upon us and the weather is good, we invite you to get to the NLP Cafe the month.

And if you book your place now, you can rest assured you will be learning how to improve your skills in relating with people and connecting more meaningfully too as you enjoy the summer … and the new oppertunities that come with the summer sun and blue sky’s.
