NLP Practitioner Module 1: Foundation Course (1)

The nine modules of this NLP Practitioner series capture the taught content of a live 20 day programme held over 10 x 2 day monthly modules.

This Module 1 begins the series with the first module of the Foundations Programme, introducing the principles that underpin NLP, and the foundation skills and techniques. Content includes

~ The Communication Model, on which all NLP is built, explaining the how the interplay of sensory experience, unique individual filters, thinking and feeling drive our responses

~ The Mercedes Model, a simple framework to better understand our 'state'

~ 'Walk with Grace and Power', a easy technique to enhance feelings of confidence.

~ The NLP approach to successful change, and ways to keep problems in perspective.

~ A structured approach to outcome setting.

~ A technique to reduce negative emotion based on memory or imagination based on changing 'Submodalities'.

~ A simple way to get better rapport, even in situations of disagreement ..... and much more

Module 2 continues the Foundations Programme, with more foundation skills, and a range of practical change techniques.

Each subsequent module of the Practitioner Programme focuses on a particular topic.

Module 3 - The Meta Model introduces the L of NLP, looking at how we make sense of the world through the language we use, and how we can challenge unhelpful language with the right questions.

Module 4 stays with the language theme, with day 1 exploring ways of accessing our unconscious resources, and day 2 exploring the use of stories and metaphor.

Module 5 looks at time and timelines, how negative memories from the past can be released, and includes the NLP phobia cure technique.

Module 6 (1 day taught content only) includes some additional anchoring techniques. Day 2, (not included on the video), involves a full day integration exercise, where participants work in threes practising what they have learnt so far.

Module 7 is an introduction to Modelling, the methodology that underpins NLP. It includes the Spelling Strategy, and the SWISH technique (an approach to deal with unwanted habitual behaviour) as examples of techniques that have come from modelling.

Module 8 introduces the Disney Creativity Strategy, leads into 'Parts' as a metaphor for unconscious decisions and patterns, and introduces techniques for working with Parts.

Module 9 explores Beliefs, and ways of identifying, working with, and changing limiting beliefs.

Module 10 (not included in the video series) is the integration and certification weekend, where participants work in threes practising their skills with each other.

NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) is a very effective approach to psychology, communication and performance, based on the study of people who naturally do things well. The Practitioner video series shares many of the frameworks and techniques that make NLP such a useful approach.

This video series is suitable for people who have already experienced some training, or watched the Foundations content. Those with experience can revisit the material, fill in any gaps, deepen their understanding, refine their skills, and perhaps find helpful ways of explaining NLP to others.

The programme will help you to develop your understanding and knowledge of NLP. For skill development, there is no substitute for the opportunities to practice and get feedback that live training courses offer.
