What is Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)?



Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a revolutionary approach to psychotherapy and behavioral change. It is based on the relationship between behavior patterns and patterns of thought. NLP is a system of alternative therapy which hopes to educate people in self-awareness and effective communication, and to change mental and emotional behavior patterns.


Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is an approach to communicationpersonal development, and psychotherapy created by Richard Bandler and John Grinderin California, USA in the 1970s. Its creators claim a connection between the neurological processes ("neuro"), language ("linguistic") and behavioural patterns learned through experience ("programming") and that these can be changed to achieve specific goals in life.[1][2] Bandler and Grinder claim that the skills of exceptional people can be "modeled" using NLP methodology then those skills can be acquired by anyone.[3][4][5][6][7] Bandler and Grinder also claim that NLP can treat problems such as phobiasdepressionhabit disorderpsychosomatic illnessesmyopia,[8] allergycommon cold[9] and learning disorders, often in a single session.[10][11][12][13] NLP has been adopted by some hypnotherapists and in seminars marketed to business and government.[14][15 ]( From: Wikepedia)
