"NLP
- the most powerful vehicle for change in existence"
Psychology Today Magazine
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is the study of how one think and why
one behaves the way we do. But it is more than just understanding the
how and why; it is about helping one change the way they think and
therefore change their behavior. The result is that one can achieve
maximum performance, overcome phobias, improve communications, and much
more.
NLP
was developed in the early 1970’s by
Richard Bandler, who studied computer science and psychology, and
John Grinder, a professor of linguistics at the University of
California, Santa Cruz. They studied three well known therapists
Virginia Satir (a very effective family therapist),
Fritz Pearls (creator of
Gestalt Therapy), and
Milton H. Erickson, M.D. (the “Godfather” of Modern Hypnosis). They
discovered from watching these that all three were good communicators
who could help people who others could not. They, Bandler and Grinder,
modeled their behavior and found that they could achieve the same
results. It is from this that NLP has developed.
