Nuero linguistic pragramming or more commonly phrased NLP can create immediate change in Your life.
After discovering NLP I became very excited about the possibilities that it offered. I didn’t realise that I’d been using it in my life,most of my life. Many aspects of behaviour in NLP are natural and easy to understand. Some of it’s practice takes time to master through constant practice.
NLP offers real ideas that can cause changes to happen and a feeling of self-empowerment to occur in minutes.
Such things as “mirroring” techniques when communicating with another person take a few moments to grasp and apply. Sure practice makes perfect but you can see results immediately. The reason for this is that we do,to a certain extent,mirror other people’s gestures and actions quite naturally.
If you spend enough time with another person and you like them and they like you, you will notice that you have picked up some of their gestures. Even just one or two similar movements in body language will prove. People also pick up on speech patterns and emulate them without realizing it.
This all leads to a situation where you begin to feel connected with the other person. The result being that you find sympathy towards the other person’s needs and wants.
Imagine if you became more aware of this process and practiced it consciously. When you have a business meeting and need the attention of another person, you can mirror the other person’s actions and speech pattern in a way that is natural. You just select strong elements of their character and begin to make gestures and use speec as they do.
A person speaks using simulated experiences to explain what they mean – to make things clearer to the listener. Some people use the idea of sound,others use visual ideas etc.
” That sounds like a good idea” -” the idea rings a bell ” or ” It looks like a good idea ” – ” I can see what you mean.”
These are expressions that you hear people use all the time to communicate. It’s their way of experiencing the world around them. It’s how they make sense of things.
When you talk to them on their level, they will listen to you and relate to your way of communicating.
This way you have more chance of being understood and having your story listened to in a serious way. It will have effect.
The same as above, you can combine body language with speech and simply mirror their gestures.This is just a part of the NLP arsenal. Do it in a subtle way and don’t go over board. Test gestures and watch their reaction. Most people don’t mind a person copying one action. It0s a confirmation of connecting with them but if you start mirroring every action and gesture, the other person will lose trust and become suspicious about what’s going on.
NLP is a wonderful way to develop your personality into an effective and helpful personality. You will benefit enormously and as you develop you will notice how much better your daily life is, how much easier relationships become and you will discover that there is a goldmine of techniques to practice and master for a more fulfilling life.
