NLP Meta Model Distortion | NLP is Fun

NLP | Neuro linguistic programming has a series of Language Patterns called The Meta Model which is extremely specific. It Challenges the Speaker to begin to clarify what they mean whenever they express themselves ambiguously.

There are Three ways in which The Meta Model is sorted into categories  each categories have specific Language Patterns to determine exactly how the speaker is creating their "Model of The Word" which is an NLP term for way in which they structure their Experience/reality .
Today I am speaking about the Meta Model Distortion which involves 5 ways in which people can distort their information.

Nominalization: 
"People are suffering because of the economy" 
"This Strategy is Rubbish and doesn't work" 
"You should have some consideration for me"
Verb turned into a Noun or an Event 
(Ask yourself this question) Can the Economy fit into a wheel barrow ?
(Ask yourself This Question) Can that Strategy fit into a wheel barrow?
(Ask yourself This Question) Can Consideration fit into a wheel barrow?

No, because (The Economizing) is an on going process that often changes every day, it is not a thing. 
No, because ( Strategizing) is an on going process that can change every day, it is not a thing. 
No, because (Considering) is an on going process that  can change every day, it is not a thing.
Add "ing" to the process and keep the conversation going until the person takes ownership of the specifics.

Challenging your Nominalization makes a persons choice of words less Challenging .. 
You learn who the subject is and turn the Noun back into a Verb. This clears up any confusion about who is doing what. and it is no longer confusing.

Cause / Effect 
"If you hadn't scared me, I wouldn't have shouted at you"
"He started it and I finished it"
Doing ________________ Caused _________________
How did an independent act cause you to respond in the way you did, these instances are unrelated. A Person chooses how to respond depending on their Internal Map.

Mind Reading
"She won't leave him, she luuuuurves him" 
"He is going to be drunk when he gets home"
Assuming without confirmation from the source
Did she/He tell you that?, How do you know that?

Complex Equivalence
"Chocolate gives you spots"
"Cloudy Sky Means Rain" 
"Cold Ice Cream Means I am going to have Brain Freeze"
__________always Means ________________

Lost Performative
"That's  a silly thing to say"
Ambiguous Value Judgement, See More here

The NLP Meta Model - Surface Structure - Deep Structure - Experience - NLP Language Patterns

The NLP Meta Model is series of Language Patterns used in Neuro linguistic programming. The use of the NLP Meta Model is extremely specific. NLP  Meta Model Language pattern is all about Information gathering.

The NLP Meta Model consists of:

• The Surface Structure
• The Deep Structure 
• The Experience.

The Surface Structure:

If you hear people in NLP speaking about the Surface structure they are speaking about the "Tip of the Iceberg" which is the persons way of  using language via Stories, Metaphor, explanations and details that they want to share with you at any given time.

This communication, has been prepared to be the most pleasing or effective in getting their point across coming from the Conscious Mind and is not necessarily congruent with the whole person.

The Deep Structure:

Is the way in which a Person sorts for information and processes through their own Communication Model.

This Involves their:

Beliefs

Sensory experience

Preferred Processing Style

Meta Programs

Past Experience

Perceptions of Choice and possibility 

Submodalities 

And all Unconscious Behavior

Just like their Knee Jerk reactions and responses, that they may not want to make public info.

The Experience:

Is their Conclusion

The Roundup

What they have summarized before they respond to a question you have asked

Their Map and their Reality.

It is the way they have coded and Re Presented the Experience into their Neurology.

NLP Meta Model Deletion - Distortion - Generalization - NLP Language Pattern

Neuro - Linguistic - programming - NLP Meta Model - NLP Deletions - NLP Distortions - NLP Generalizations. NLP Language Pattern
How to Learn the NLP Meta Model.

When it comes to the NLP Meta Model it is super easy to learn. But some people feel intimidated and don't invest the time into owning it, so that you can become great at Recognizing it.
Think of the Meta Model in terms of Information Gathering.
To Understand the persons Model, you must listen intently to hear how they reveal their Meta Model Violations.

The Three Groups in The Meta Model are:
Deletion, Distortion and Generalization.

Now let's get specific.
To recognize language as well formed these conditions must be met.
1. Well Formed in English
2. Contain zero:

• Transformational deletions 
• Unexplored Deletions of any kind (All must be challenged) 
• The person is positioned back into the powerful advantage of all the choices available to them,
•  Beyond their previous expectations which were based on previous perceptions

In other words, because you say it as if it is true, does not necessarily make it true to me. I have the right to ask you a question about it, so that I can learn more about what you are communicating.

The speaker has a chance to revise their previous expectation, now that they know there is somebody who has another point of view.

Other Rules are:

3. Contain no Nominalizations in which a Process is turned into an event and or is made Final, without going challenged as the the available options.

4. Contains no words or Phrases without Referential Indices

5. Contain no verbs incompletely specified

6. Contain no unexplored presuppositions in the portion of the model that implies the person has no choice.

7. Contain no sentences which violate the semantic conditions of well formedness. 

These rules have been accumulated from The Structure of Magic Bandler and Grinder 1975

In order to become really good at using the Meta Model you must additionally become really good at how you connect with other people in terms of rapport.

If you respect the person you are speaking to, instead of judging or criticizing, you can get to a place of curious questioning.

The Meta Model works really well like this.

If you are not doing this you will find yourself arguing perhaps and that doesn't feel good for anyone.

Some people are super aggressive in using the Meta Model once they learn it, and become NLP Meta Monsters which are like NLP Mean Kids who are Language bully's.

They thrive of saying crazy things like "Aha I caught you Generalizing ....."

Anyway I know you operate from a place of congruent Win Win and it is you I wrote this information for. We have the power to empower with this knowledge and I really love doing so, hopefully you do too.

Next time I speak about the Meta Model I will split Deletions, Distortions and Generalizations into categories.

I hope you enjoyed this Mini Lesson and I look forward to your feedback.

The Self Love Process by Nadia Harper | NLP is Fun

The Self Love Process is something I designed a couple of years ago.
In response to how does one actually go through the motions of loving themselves.

What specifically would they need to do.

I found that for the most part people wanted to receive more love in their lives and gravitated to external affirmation from others in the hope of experiencing a sense of love, wholeness and well being.
.
The problem with this is that they frequently were looking for attention, Approval and signs of being appreciated from other people.
A need that seemed to be insatiable, not so different from an addiction.
Many of these people also had their own experience of love which meant that frequently there was a massive mismatch in the area of expectation, when they found another person who offered them love.

When I started using this in my own life, it changed my expectation in a huge way. I have taught The self love process extensively at this point, and everyone who uses it has been able to improve the way they feel about themselves, their value and their experience.

When you feel as if you are enough, everything changes.
Your relationships to others become different
How you communicate becomes different
You feel secure and comfortable in your own skin.

The thought of not being enough or fitting within other people's ideas of what you should be can no longer exist when practicing the Self love process.

You must realize this is certainly a process, the more you do this the better you feel, the more you turn your attention to all that is great about you.

Your feedback is welcome, in the meantime, please share The self love process with anyone you wish.
The  next Self Love Process Workshop

If you liked this Information then please share with somebody you know will benefit.

Best,

Nadia.
