NLP and Hypnotherapy

For the past decades companies marketing in the people therapy sector has used labels such as neuroscience in an attempt to stand out and appear to be cutting edge. The latest is the use of the idea of meta cognition.

NLP training 35 years ago was all about meta cognition, the ability to notice the mental processing and language skills your brain is going through as you talk and behave.

Meta cognition is at the heart of 4thLevel NLP.

Q and A
Introduction Although we seem to think of time as something humans use to explain life with the language they use as they communicate to others and themselves it is actually a fundamental mental brain process without which the brain cannot function as a brain. Just as every cell has a length of life embedded in its DNA so the brain has an ability to add a time stamp to every memory you make. Without this ability ours lives wouldn’t make sense. Every issue your clients bring to you will be dependent on time and how they process time.

What would happen if you could tell from your client’s eye movements how they organise time and you could…

1. shorten the time they believe it will take them to resolve their issue
2. have them engage unconsciously with the past and change un-useful beliefs learnt in the past
3. have them organise their past and future memories to be more effective in their lives

Your learnings This seminar will give you an overview of how the brain demonstrates time through eye movements and how that influences the state your client is in as they address their issues. The two seminar exercises will give you hands on experience of not only the time indicators but also the sorts of questions that can best elicit the indicators. 

Client Issues - Eye Movement Meanings

Eye movements give a wealth of information and this seminar is a simple introduction. However, the content can easily be the most impactful piece of information about human thinking that you will ever experience.

Q and A

Introduction Eye movements contain a huge amount of information which is available in an instant, if you know what you are looking for. The eye movements are initiated by the sub-conscious and are out of the awareness of your client. However, they can give you an essential insight into your client’s mental processing in a matter of seconds. Their eye movements are more accurate than the words they use to describe their issue.

What would happen if you could access from one question…

1. an instant display of the issue your client has, as created by their unconscious
2. a strong indication of which ‘modality’, visual, kinesthetic or auditory-digital, their unconscious has stored it in
3. an indication of whether the issue is based more strongly on past experience or future fears

Your learnings In this seminar you will experience how these 3 elements can be clearly seen. Although there is a huge amount of science behind what is happening you will be able to use what you experience in your next client session. During the seminar you will take part in small group exercises to give you hands on experience of seeing the eye movements associated with client issues.

Submodalities - Reading the Client's Visualisations

A client comes to you if they consciously experience an issue in their lives. However, the issue will have its form in their unconscious. There is a wealth of information available to the therapist from unconscious cues even when having a conscious conversation with the client. Reading the submodalities is powerful because it is always changes to the them that change the issue.

Q and A
Introduction Eye movements bring up the client’s issue but it is the sub-modalities of the image created that give it intensity for the client. Sub-modalities of an image are the factual things you can describe about the image. Such as whether it is large or small, a black and white image or coloured, in focus or not, has movement etc.

What would happen if you could see these submodalities and…

1. use them to appreciate the client’s feeling about their issue
2. use them in your language to gauge how the client would then respond to their issue
3. build them into the hypnotic script you use when you have the client in an hypnotic trance
Your learnings In this seminar you will experience how submodalities can be clearly seen. You will experience your own change of feelings as another seminar participant leads you through alterations to your submodalities and you will have the chance to act as the therapist for another participant. To round off the session participants will be invited to create scripts with submodality changes and share them with the group.

Timeline - Client's Issue in Respect to Time

A client comes to you if they consciously experience an issue in their lives. However, the issue will have its form in their unconscious. There is a wealth of information available to the therapist from unconscious cues even when having a conscious conversation with the client. Reading the submodalities is powerful because it is always changes to the them that change the issue.

Q and A

Introduction You have a choice. You are either going to run a hypnotherapy business just to pay your bills or you are interested in what we as humans are doing on this planet and how we are thinking about how our life experience is at the mercy of our brains, how brains are mentally set up, how they create who we are. The content, our memories, our life experiences and the mental ability we have developed will be the result of our formative years. In NLP we refer to that as our Model Of The World, our MoW. The challenge is that our MoW was not of our choosing and yet we have to make sense of the world while working out of it. Even if we think we have stepped out of it we will have used our MoW to do the stepping out, it’s a ‘Catch 22’ scenario.

What abilities would you need to have to be able to do the following without talking in terms of beliefs or values…

1. to list as signs of congruity in a world leader
2. to list the differences between a top actor and an actor who isn’t totally believable in the roles the play?
3. what would you put on the list of characteristics you would want your children’s teachers to have so that they could guide your children to be their true selves, to unlock the natural potential every human is born with
4. to judge how congruent you think the people who taught you hypnotherapy were?

Your learnings This seminar will give you an overview of how the brain demonstrates time through eye movements and how that influences the state your client is in as they address their issues. The two seminar exercises will give you hands on experience of not only the time indicators but also the sorts of questions that can best elicit the indicators.
