NLP Techniques
Show moreThese free NLP techniques provide the foundation for working with other people using NLP or Hypnosis. As in many areas of life, practice makes perfect. It's a good idea to choose a technique and practice it thoroughly. While it is easier to learn the skills individually, the long term goal is to develop the ability to blend them all together. Eventually you will find that you are able to use these techniques automatically.
NLP Modeling
NLP Modeling, whilst at the heart of NLP, seems to be a skill that many NLP practitioners don’t really have a good grasp of.
NLP Sensory Acuity
Sensory acuity is probably the most impressive skill to demonstrate and is a skill that is central to NLP.

Language Patterns are central to working with clients and for all NLP persuasion techniques.

NLP Rapport Techniques
Rapport is simply about increasing the number of similarities between yourself and a client to allow them to relax and feel that you are like them. So how do you achieve this?
NLP Meta Model
To get to the heart of any problem you have to ask the right questions - the Meta Model gives you the structure to achieve this.
The Milton Model
Show moreThe Milton Model is the basis for most of the NLP Language patterns. I complied the following articles using my notes from McKenna Breens NLP Practitioner and NLP Master Practitioner courses. These NLP language patterns will provide the foundation for all your hypnotic language skills.
Richard Bandler's method of teaching these language patterns is a mixture of installation and writing out pages of examples. Work with these patterns every day and they become an automatic part of your natural language.
Inverse Meta-Model Patterns
The Milton Model is often considered to be the opposite of the meta-model. This is because the meta-model is designed to take a clients vague language and ask questions to move to a more concrete description and move the client towards a solution, whereas the milton model is based around using vague language to enhance the hypnotic process.
Patterns for gathering Information
Nominalizations, Unspecified Verbs, Unspecified Referential Indexes and Deletions

NLP Exercises
Show moreThe following NLP exercises can be used by yourself or can be used with clients. They are mostly based around submodalities which are covered in the NLP Submodalities - Change your Reality Lesson. These kind of exercises are the bread and butter of many NLP Practitioners toolbox.
Start with your Beliefs
Show moreBeliefs underlay many issues that people have. To attempt to resolve an issue such as social phobia or motivation without dealing with the beliefs related to that problem is foolhardy. The following NLP exercises can be used when dealing with any issue to create the right belief structure before working on the issue directly. By destroying any limiting beliefs and generating a few positive ones, many issues will be much easier to resolve.
The NLP Belief Creator
Create new beliefs to generate more options and greater flexibility in your life.
The NLP Belief Disintegrator
