NLP Practitioner Basics: The Skills to Engage with Difference

The final episode in our series on the core skills taught in the NLP Practitioner course. On their final day, our practitioners apply everything they have learned to three fundamental activities: learning, collaboration and influence. The point of all of them is the same: to engage with difference so that we move beyond individual limitations to feel better and achieve more. 

NLP Practitioner Basics: The Structure of Influence

How do you build a communication? The elements of structure involve setting things up so that what happens next will be useful. Understanding how many different parts are at work in a conversation can be intimidating, but that's why we do this on day 7 of the practitioner training. By then, you're learning to commit to your outcomes and use the immense processing power of your brain and body to drive results that will satisfy you.

NLP Practitioner Basics: Language That Connects

Have you ever been in a conversation that went horribly wrong? Understand the fear of shame, conflict and consequences and flip it around so that your language supports connection, collaboration and clarity.

NLP Practitioner Basics: Communication goals

This is episode 5 in our series on the core skills we teach in our NLP Practitioner program. As we enter the second half of the program, we focus on the states and outcomes that set you up for communication success.

NLP Practitioner Basics: Setting Your Direction

This is the 4th episode in our series on the skills being taught in the NLP Practitioner Course. This episode builds on the first 3 days to understand how to set your direction so that you move strongly. Goals are important, but they are the seasoning, not the main ingredient. Your life is not a list: it's a territory you can map so you know how to get there from here.

NLP Practitioner Basics:Just Enough Stress

This is the 3rd episode in our series on the skills taught in the NLP Practitioner Course. In this episode, learn what it takes to manage stress so that it works for you. The first episode is fundamental to understanding everything that comes after, so make sure you learn about state and mind/body thinking before learning how to use those concepts to manage stress more effectively.

NLP Practitioner Basics: You Are Never Alone

In the second day of the NLP practitioner course, we practice refining our perception of the influence of the people we carry in our heads and the influence of people we interact with. It's hard to trust yourself until you understand the role the social self plays in directing our choices, changing our states, and enabling us to learn from one another.

How to be clear with NLP

One of the basic principles in NLP is this: the meaning of communication is the feedback it gets. This means that to be clear, you have to know what feedback you want. Here are three ideas to tweak your communication so you're more likely to get that feedback. For more #freeNLP visit www.nlpcanada.com.
