Note on ‘Neuro Linguistic Programming’ (NLP)

NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Neuro means the way you think on a consistent basis. Linguistic refers to what you say. It entails language that we use with ourselves and with others. It is about raising awareness about patterns we use in our interactions. Programming means what you do.

The study of NLP is about how one experiences life based on thinking, beliefs, and programmed behaviors that have become a part of oneself. These patterns as they are called determine the choices that one can make and ultimately the results or success one achieves. By NLP, these processes, language and behavioural patterns can be reprogrammed and changed to create a better life experience to achieve specific goals. NLP helps to determine which of these patterns are serving and helping one in achieving goals and which ones are holding one back or sabotaging success. Once these patterns and beliefs are identified, change becomes easy.
