What is NLP and how does it work?
NLP is one of the most successful methodologies for accelerated change and learning ever developed. It is widely used in the corporate world as well as in the world of coaching, counselling and healing.
NLP, short for Neuro-Linguistic Programming, is often referred to as the ‘study of excellence’. The founders of NLP, Richard Bandler and John Grinder spent decades observing groups of people that were particularly good at a specific skills ie. spelling, business, relationships, communication and so forth. They extracted what these people had in common that related to the skill they were excellent at and started teaching it to others. It turned out, that excellence was teachable and learnable in that framework.
NLP has a phenomenal collection of methodologies and techniques to assist people going through rapid positive change. One of NLP’s hallmarks is a deep understanding of the power of language. The power of the word. The ‘linguistic’ part in NLP stands for using language’s transformational power to rewire brain regions to create a better life.
A session with Mathis utilises a multitude of NLP principles :
The art of reframing can be deeply transformational and Mathis uses it constantly in his own biography. The art of using language to facilitate deep and lasting change has become part of his life since he first trained over 20 years ago. Just that one element had a hugely transformational aspect on how he taught his children. It also had a huge influence on his marriage ( Diane studied much of it too ).
The art of finding and applying leverage to assist a client to shift is very powerful too.
There are parts integration to help clients integrate and harmonise two warring voices inside.
Mathis' favourite is helping clients to move from being ‘at cause’ to being ‘at effect’ explained separately elsewhere. The list goes on and on. NLP truly is a gift that keeps on giving.
