7 Habits of a highly Effective NLP Coach | NLP is Fun

If you know about Neuro Linguistic Programming you will know That NLP can be used extremely well for Coaching and Learning, as well as learning how to Model a new behavior.
In many ways NLP Coaching is a highly effective alternative to traditional therapies.
Because of the components emphatically used.

Neuro = Using sensory awareness predicates = to identify and transform experience
Linquistic = Using Language to Identify an Transform patterns
Programming = Rewiring patterns that do not currently work and installing patterns that work highly effectively.

Perhaps you would like to become an NLP Coach or receive NLP Coaching or Training, here are some of the points to consider when choosing a Neuro linguistic programming Coach.

Here are 7 Habits of a highly Effective NLP Coach 

1. We are Proactive and creative with the focus on outcomes more than being formal in our approach.

2. Our Sensory awareness is highly developed and we respond to our client in the present rather that creating a strategy of what could or should be done.

3. We demonstrate creative flexibility, adapting and using different approaches that work and teach our clients to use the same approach in their own behavior.

4. We share an unspoken belief that the structure of a clients problem is more important for creating a change than the content of the clients problem.

5. We see every problem as a challenge and an opportunity to learn something

6. We regard the clients circumstance as an attempt to deal with a problem, rather that seeing them as "broken" or "Stuck"

7. We have certain unconscious, intuitive skills and behavior patterns in common.

"Build powerful hope for People, build it not so much from understandings. Build hope from an experience. Create this experience, reality is built from ideas. Create this experience repeatedly. Most of the time, most people have that backwards."

Powerful Affirmation Techniques | NLP is Fun

Many people wonder do Affirmations really work, for that reason I have decided to speak on this NLP Blog post about how to get the most out of your own affirmations.

You make also be wondering can you use NLP to create better Affirmations and if you are curious about how Neuro linguistic programming will improve your affirmations you will love this post.
I will explain an affirmation technique you can use right now that impacts the unconscious mind very quickly.

How to create a Powerful affirmation that works instantly
You must decide on your Outcome first to create the most powerful affirmation ever

Now

Get clear on what is the specific desire and turn it into an actual sentence like this
I want to get better at football

Now

Create the real Affirmation and turn it into an I am Statement like this
I am great at football

Now Amplify and turn up the volume and intensity of your affirmation which makes you fully connected to it and in NLP we call this Fully Associated.
Real eyes if you cannot feel the reality of this statement you are dissociated from the outcome which means you probably are in conflict with the belief or expectation of this actually happening.
If this is the case it is very likely it will not happen.
Your unconscious mind must accept this before it happens.

Now explain how you have evidence of this Visual Auditary Kinesthetic say it like this
I know this because V.A.K (evidence):

I can see myself Playing better than I ever have now
I can hear people telling me I am great at football
I feel great about my football skills now

Now Amplify this into another Positive and stronger statement add another plus to it
And I am always getting better

Repeat the completed Affirmation 10 times each one

And Now

Now Visualize yourself doing the actual outcome and repeat 10 times

Notice the shift 
The more you commit to this process the faster you will receive your reward,
Most of all have fun with it!

You may be interested in repeating this exercise as many times as you can for lots of reasons. You are in charge of running your own brain as soon as you like,

NLP Modeling Exercise | NLP is Fun

Here is a fun way to use NLP to become better at building a skill. In Neuro linguistic programming we call this "Modeling" because we are learning from a role model.

Have a go at making NLP easy and fun, and you can do this is by keeping it simple in the following way.
Credit for this NLP Modeling exercise goes to Richard Bandler co Creator of Neuro lingistic programming 'NLP" .

One of my favourite  things to do is to cook Jamaican food and I modeled my Auntie who used to cook delicious Jamaican food for us that felt great in our hearts and Tummies.
Here is a dish that I cooked recently, and I have become so good at cooking Jamaican food that I also am called to cook many times for my friends and family.

Although I have no plans to own a restaurant, I have successfully catered many private events. Part of the reason is I actually love cooking the food of my heritage.

It is a wonderful anchor that reminds me of great days long gone. As I cook I get to recreate memories for my friends and family and the joy they experience delights me.

Are you ready to become a Modeler ?

Step 1:
Decide what the skill is that you would like to learn or decide on a person you admire and would love to behave like.
Find all media to review and make yourself comfortable and relaxed while reviewing all, and remember the more relaxed you are the more your unconscious mind will easily adopt the behavior.
Notice all Visuals - Auditary - Kinesthetic - Olfactory - Gustatory components. 
Observe - Relax - Familiarize the What

Step 2:
When you feel as if you are fully present in the components of this persons actions.
Close your eyes and relax Visualize them doing it with all amplified sensory awareness of their behavior and what they do and how they do it.
Notice all Visuals - Auditary - Kinesthetic - Olfactory - Gustatory components.
Relax - Visualize - Amplify - Notice the How

Step 3:
After you feel as if you have "Got it" then "step in to them and Act as if" you can see through their eyes fully associated to all of their mastery
Step into - Act as if - Experience
Notice all Visuals - Auditary - Kinesthetic - Olfactory - Gustatory components.
Explore in 3D repeat several times noting your discoveries as a strategy for yourself.
Step in to - Explore - Notice

Step 4:
Run again from your own associated position and repeat several times until you can do it without trying too hard.
Notice all Visuals - Auditary - Kinesthetic - Olfactory - Gustatory components.
Repeat - Improve - Adjust

Step 5:
Step out of your persons body completely and retain the applied process integrated into your own natural processes
Notice all Visuals - Auditary - Kinesthetic - Olfactory - Gustatory components.
and re-run this over and over again, improving every single time.
Notice all Visuals - Auditary - Kinesthetic - Olfactory - Gustatory components.
Adopt - Adapt - Run - Improve

Step 7:
Repeat the whole exercise over again and do daily for a month
Notice all Visuals - Auditary - Kinesthetic - Olfactory - Gustatory components.
Perfect - Repeat - 30 days

Alphabet Pain by Owen Fitzpatrick | NLP is Fun

On the bright side some people have proven to be contributing towards ending racism and those people will be highlighted in my blog as heroes, especially when so many are silent.

Today I am Featuring Owen Fitzpatrick of Owen Fitzpatrick International (OFI)
Owen Writes in his description:

"So, last week, I was struggling to write out what was going through my head about Black Lives Matters and the George Floyd case and the protests.... so I wrote a poem called ‘Alphabet Pain’ and got some friends to record it with me. Here it is. Edited by Michael Cutrone. Narrated by Shahana Jan, James Boyd, Esther Levy and Owen Fitzpatrick."

Owens Alphabet Pain Poem is so powerful, I would love to hear your thoughts.

An open letter 2020 | NLP is Fun

An Open Letter

It is such an incredible time to be alive. Vegas is opening back up with the lights on again on the strip and many gathering places such as Restaurants and Casino's open.

It still does not feel the same and we know that people are still getting sick with Covvid 19 unfortunately. Many places are still on some type of lock down even being punished for being outside when more than two people at a time.

We are in a worldwide racism protest to overcome the senseless killing of Black people at the hands of Police Brutality over the years. George Floyd's murder shook the hearts and minds of most every person alive.
One Police Officer asphyxiated the life out of his black male body for 8 minutes and 46 seconds by kneeling on his neck with his hands in his pockets while his 3 Back up officers watched and did nothing to spare his life.

Around the world people are outraged at the inhumanity of it in general, and the White supremacist movement rising in America and even worldwide in particular.

We appreciate each of you that stand in support, and we pray for better treatment wherever we are.
We must continue to make a stand until this racial injustice is improved and on a permanent rise to equal human justice for every single person without any hint of oppression of one race or supremacy of another.

To say nothing and attempt to ignore it as these injustices are brought to the surface is no longer an option. Silence is just the same as violence.

You know that no race is superior to another. No person's life is more valuable than the next person.
We are speaking about Life force and for that reason we protest.

Black lives Matter

We Pray for the families whom have already lost loved ones in this protest stand strong, God bless you.

Stand Firm

We have many role models who have paved the way to teach us this.
We must also find a way to get back to the goodness of "us" in our souls.

A way to heal ancestral Trauma
A way to Thrive and yet continue to stand firm.

May you be safe in all ways blessings, love and protection to you and your family.
If you do not stand for something you will fall for anything.

What is a Yes Set | NLP is Fun

If you are in sales you may have heard of a Yes set and you may not yet be sure what exactly that is.

Let's go through it shall we.
A Yes set will look and sound like this

So you made it then ?
Was it raining when you left?
Did you get my text this Morning?

Now that is three yes's
Isn't it, assuming the person said yes.

The way to get the yes is by asking questions you undeniably know the answer is going to be yes to.

Then you ask a real question you want a Yes answer to either directly or setting it up with a couple soft and cozy ones first.

Like this:

"So you are coming to football on Tuesday then "
They agree and say Yes.

Liverpool killed it against (whomever) did you see the match
2 more yes's

"You gonna bring your kit and play this time"
They agree and say yes.

Is Holly over yours ...Yep

Gonna sign up for team training ?
yeah might as well.

So now they have said yes to you about signing up for your course.

And the person unconsciously has been programmed to say yes.

It is not an exact science, so you need to calibrate your pace and lead ratio.
As always go with your instinct.

Now you have a go !
Remember you need loads of Rapport as that will make a big difference to the level of ease the person feels.

Utilisation - Milton Erickson | NLP is Fun

Hello dear friends, oh how I have missed you.

Here is a small chunk 

Since you love to influence and persuade people with Language patterns, Hypnosis and Anchors, I will offer a new Hypnotic pattern for you to learn today.

Utilisation For Hypnosis:

Have you ever been performing Hypnosis and the door bell rings.

Or

The Clock Chimes

Or

And Ambulance sets off a loud Alarm.

In Hypnosis we utilize whatever is happening into the sensory awareness of our pre-talk and our Hypnotic induction.

In fact as you begin to do an induction you will bring attention outside and then inside like this.

"As you hear the quiet hum of the cooling fan you know all is well with the world and now you can easily relax".

"Every sound you hear will in fact lead you deeper into an unconscious state of comfort and ease .. Certainly".

And

Utilisation as a Language pattern:

Here is Utilisation is used as a Language pattern

"As you continue to increase your knowledge while reading NLP is Fun you increase your options in every area of your life."

"As you listen intently to the soft sound of my voice you may also notice how relaxed and soft your whole body is becoming."

"As you change your position to one of more comfort you will also notice how easy it is to change your mind."

"As you move your head to signal being ready suddenly things you had been waiting for suddenly appear out of thin air."

Isn't this fun.

Well let us see you write some out and practice them.

Sooner than later they will naturally show up in your conversation.

Remember,

Whatever shows up adapt it as a prop to help you achieve your goal.

As you really tap into your outcome the need to hammer it in becomes obsolete !!

Utilise it = Utilisation

Until the next one
