INTRODUCTION:

NLP or Neuro Linguistic Programming has been variously defined - as "Modelling Excellence", as "the Study of the Structure of Subjective Experience", as many things; and all of this is true. Dr. Richard Bandler said:

 

“NLP is an attitude……characterised by the sense of curiosity and adventure and a desire to learn skills to be able to find out what kinds of communication influence somebody and the kinds of things worth knowing; to lok at life as a rare opportunity to learn.

NLP is a methodology…..based on the overall operational presupposition that all behaviour has a structure…..and that structure can be modelled, learned, taught and changed (re programmed). The ways to know what will be useful and effective are the perceptual skills

NLP has evolved into an INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY ….enabling the practitioner to organise information and perceptions in ways that allow them to achieve results that were once inconcieveable”

 

NOW
The crucial element here, and it something that virtually all the so called schools of NLP have tend to disregard, is that section of Richard’s words stating that the structure of all behaviour can be “modelled, learned, taught and changed” Teaching people o use the patterns developed by Bandler and others is not teaching them NLP-it is teaching people to replay a learned pattern and just substitute different content. That’s not NLP and never will be. It’s like teaching people to read a script, giving them a folder full of scripts and telling them they are qualified hypnotherapists. It is nonsense. If you want to learn and understand NLP, learn and understand how to understand, learn model teach and create the “structures of behaviour”. Also, learn and understand hypnosis, because Half of NLP IS Hypnotic language - Hypnosis. The core of all our courses incorporates a thorough knowledge and understanding of BOTH these incredible tools.

To make life easier, we have included two introductions here.  There is the short version, and the long one. the long one contains stuff that is not in the short one and the short one contains suggestions that are not in the long one.  now you may be wondering whether to read the short one or the long one and if you are in a real hurry to get to the details, you might read only the short one.  Personally, I would read both of them because there is always something new to learn....

 

 

THE SHORT VERSION:

 

This school aims to be a bit different. Weather you  simply want to to become an exquisite human being - to be all that you can be, or join up  to become a therapist, a salesperson, or to enhance your career or just to learn something new and see where it takes you, our approach is that we deal in what works;  not in this or that approach.  we don't believe in scoring points - in proving that hypnosis is better than NLP or Freud is worse than Jung .

We believe in making and using powerful, effective tools that work and have drawn together aspects of many approaches in order to get the best of all of them, and indeed the sum of the parts IS greater than the whole

Psychology, Psychiatry, psychotherapy, Hypnosis and NLP are all about the human mind, how it works and how it communicates. Whatever you do in life you are dealing with humans somewhere in what you do.  As long as you are dealing with humans you must communicate and anytime you are communicating, YOU CAN DO IT BETTER and you can feel better about it.

You may not want to do what Derren brown or Paul McKenna do; you may not want to help people get over their problems, but whatever you want to do, with a little imagination, you will see that you can find a use for that kind of skill in your chosen career.

THE LONG VERSION:

 

As you sit reading this and as you go through life, there are things that you would like more of; there are things that you would like to be able to do better, and probably things you would rather change. Now it may be that you have not yet considered the fact that the way we communicate and the way we think are connected so closely together that they are effectively inseparable and having considered this before or not, as you think of it now you may wonder why this is so important.  As Connirae Andreas said: "whenever your mouth is open, words may be coming out", and even when its not, you are thinking.

 

Has anyone ever taught you how to think or how to communicate with yourself and others in a way that has more impact, more persuasive, convincing power than you have ever thought was possible?  I doubt it  And i know, as you site there, there are things in your life you might like to change things you want more of, like money, friendship, love, success n your chosen path and things you want less of, like stress, worry, personal problems, weight etc.

If any of this rings a bell, as you see how this might apply to you, if you feel you might like to get a grip on things as you read this, read on.  you are in the right place

 

Before fire; before caves; before we even came down from the trees, we communicated.  It may not have been language as such, but it was communication - In  one form or another, communication has existed as long as consciousness, making it arguably the oldest science there is.

 

Hypnosis is the art and science of communication; blending the creative power and beauty of words with accuracy and precision of computer science and the dynamics of cutting edge physics.

 

When you smile; when you frown; when you make a rude sign or say "Good Morning"; you influence the state of awareness of another person. When you alter someone's state of awareness, you are engaging in hypnosis.  Everyone does it all the time.  Whenever your mouth is open, words may be coming out.  It is your choice as to how effective those words may be and it is yours to choose whether or not you want to know how much others are influencing you.

 

To give an example, it is quite likely that you have seen or heard of Derran Brown;  you may note that he does not so much tell people to do things as tell you what they are going to do.  He is a superbly skilled artist.  Much of what he does is based on some of  the same tools as our courses. 

He uses a combination of NLP* and hypnosis, and he does it well.  The range and diversity of applications for these tools is truly limited only by your own imagination.  We do not teach anyone to manipulate cards the way he does, or to be a performer; we certainly don't advocate Russian Roulette, but  we teach you to shape the tools of influence and persuasion; to look and listen and recognise the thought processes and to an extent the thoughts that a person is having.  These are powerful tools for helping and healing; they are also tools for life.

If you are alive, you are thinking.  You are seeing, hearing and feeling.  So are those around you.  You can live by reacting to those around you, or you can be the cause of action in others.  Its a basic choice, and it is yours to make.  I know what I chose....

 

The Inner Circle is a school of Hypnotherapy, but it is also much more than that.  Hypnotherapy is about helping, about healing and about evolving the human being as a whole - assisting a human being in evolving to their maximum potential - it is widely acknowledged that we use between five and ten percent of our brains.  Imagine what you could do if you used 100 percent of your brain!

 

The Inner Circle is about  Bringing the knowledge and understanding of what hypnosis really is and what it could mean for us as human beings to anyone and everyone who is interested in their own evolution - in improving themselves and the world around them.

 

Just to keep things relatively clear from the outset, NLP or  Neuro Linguistic Programming - the  creation of the genius of Dr Richard Bandler, and John Grinder and associates, Can be said to be the flip side of  Hypnosis, in that it is based on and around the communication process, both internal and external.  However, NLP is far more more than simply another aspect of hypnosis.  It is an incredibly powerful and effective science in it's own right, and it would be to continue without pointing this out.  NLP is the study of the structure of subjective experience - it is the study of human excellence and of the structure and process of human thought and experience in such a manner as to facilitate the modelling, transfer and subsequent replication of any desired aspect or process demonstrated by a human mind.

By creating this set of tools, Richard and his friends turned the therapy world on it's head to an even greater extent than Milton Erickson because, among other things, for the first time NLP made it possible to fully understand and teach the skills of Milton Erickson, Gregory Bateson, Virginia Satir, Moshe Feldenkrais and others in a manner and depth that even they themselves could not achieve.  Richard made it possible to study and to teach the intangible magick that was the genius of these people and others.

A human bieng is the sum of many parts - both physical and mental; as for the Spirit? well, thats argualbe, but certainly mind and body, both of which are made of many parts, not just mechanical but mental also - for example, theres the part that likes to learn and the part that likes to party.

ALL these parts, working together create a whole far greater than the sum of the parts. Few people would disagree with that. In the same way, Our courses incorporate a union - a Synergy of different techniques and approaches, each working in unision with the others to produce something greater.

To these is added a a new structure - a systemic metta strategy, designed to facilitate a deep, ecology based, ongoing developmental approach to the post intervention ecological matrix. This technology is not available anywhere else. As you will discover, it brings together all aspects of theabove approaches and incorporates tham into one coherent toolforhuman evolution - "synergistic Life Enhancement".
We will teach you about the human mind - We will teach you about communication, and the way in which communication and thought are connected so that if you communicate in the right way, the thoughts will follow.  How words and the structure of language can change minds compellingly and permanently; about communication and influence more far reaching, more effective than most people have ever dreamed could exist.

That is, we will if you want us to.....
