In NLP, Eye Accessing cues are one of the more controversial subjects - simply because for every NLP practitioner who believes they are a useful tool, there is someone who doesn't believe they work at all. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

To put it simply, NLP eye accessing cues are useful and very dependable, as long as you remember that they are a generalization. When working with someone it is important to calibrate their NLP eye accessing cues to ensure that you are interpreting the signals correctly. The list below is typical for a right handed person. Left handed people tend to have the left and right reversed. These are the usual NLP eye accessing cues:

Once you have learnt the list of NLP eye accessing cues, the best thing is to observe people for a while and see if their eye movements make sense to you. i.e. While they were talking about their new car and how flash it was, they kept looking up and to the left which suggests they're making pictures. But do be careful with your conclusions: If a right handed person is describing that they did remember to post a letter for you, but their eyes are going up and to the right, this could suggest that they are lying. Of course without calibrating you can't be sure. A simple way to calibrate in this instance would be to ask something that you know they can remember and see if their eyes go to the same direction or not. And remember that this must be done subtly. |

More Complicated than some people thinkPosted May 9, 2010 at 09:12 In NLP eye accessing, there is often more going on than people think. If you know about timelines and strategies it is often easier to get a clear idea of what the underlying process is. what i don't get..Posted November 6, 2011 at 22:35 are the eye movements in the direction of their perspective or mine? like their left is my right. so when their eyes goes right, i see them going left, right? To make it clear...Posted November 7, 2011 at 09:07 In this article I am refering to nlp eye accessing movements from their perspective not yours. For most people the past is on their left and their auditory digital accessing is also their left. Posted January 15, 2012 at 17:52 are eye accessing cues for Vc and Ac always in the same side of K cues? Or can the K be replaced by the Ad? TonyPosted January 25, 2012 at 13:06 Usually if the cues are reversed then the whole set would be reversed. Of course this is not to say that there aren't people with very unconventional eye accessing cues. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Problems with Eye accessing
Posted May 8, 2010 at 12:02
One of the things that slowed me down using NLP eye accessing cues when I first learnt NLP is that it's really easy to look for what you expect to happen, and miss what actually happens.
Many people don't immediately access the 'correct submodality'. For instance, if I ask someone to think of a time when they were happy, before making an image, they may go through a list and say each event they think of (internally) before visualize the scene. So their strategy can be seen if you look closely enough, but if you are just expecting a 'visual memory', their eye accessing may seen rather odd.
