Access and Anchoring to Three States

Access and Anchoring to Three States – An Advanced NLP Exercise Here is a classic NLP Anchoring process exercise. Often overlooked and still as powerful as ever! While designed for groups of four, you can certainly do it with two, and even, perhaps, practice with yourself!

Working with Other People’s Meta-Programs

I’m very fortunate. Business has been busy and growing. While, like anyone, there are bumps in the road, things are all in all going well. In fact, I’ve just added new members to my team. One of them is my daughter! It’s really cool when you get to work with someone you already know and respect! I consider myself to be exceptionally lucky in that respect.

Negative Commands: One Of The Ways Language Directs Attention

Language Directs Attention: Negative Commands – How they don’t work (and do!) Here Connirae Andreas describes this distinction in a context where it’s a easy to recognize the importance of this distinction! And whatever you do, don’t start wondering now just how soon you’ll find ways to use these in your life.:-) Offering Positive Alternatives: Telling Children What We DO Want Let’s suppose your child came up to you and asked you what you wanted

Following on your proactive practice with last week’s introduction and preparation, you’ll be able to step right in to this fundamental and powerful piece of NLP.
