Structural Components of the Training

Rapport - You will learn specific strategies that allow you to put others at ease in seconds and quickly increase your own comfort in the presence of others.

Sensory Acuity - By learning to read other people's body language and tone of voice, you'll develop a deeper, speedier understanding of what's going on beneath the surface. Imagine learning to listen with your eyes as well as your ears. Well-developed sensory acuity skills allow you to interpret the mood of a person or a roomful of people and adjust your responses to maintain and increase rapport. This skill also helps you to receive accurate feedback on your own internal states and emotions, bringing unconscious behaviors and patterns to conscious recognition.

Anchoring Formats- You'll enhance your peak performance and learn how to improve any situation by discovering how to make all your resources available when you want them. Here you will learn to 'step out' of your own experience in order to gain a new and more useful perspective. Using this skill allows you to find new ways to deal with difficult situations. You'll acquire the tools to transform the impact of past events and effectively accomplish behavioral changes in your life … with little time and less effort.

Running Your Own Brain - Success with Submodalities - In this section you will learn about the unconscious building blocks of your structure of reality. You will also learn how rearranging them can create profound inner change. You'll learn to recognize and utilize the NLP Representational Systems - visual, auditory and kinesthetic, and their finer distinctions - or submodalities. You'll be able to identify eye movements, language patterns and physiology that indicates the 'model of the world' of another person. You'll master the NLP Phobia/Trauma pattern, well-known for its ability to cure most phobias in a single session.

Precision Language and Information Gathering - Discover the secrets of successful and efficient information-gathering, how to know what questions to ask and why, and the impact your language patterns have on others. You'll discover the skill of creating well-formed and compelling outcomes that are ecological by making sure that the changes you make are good for you and all others involved.

Milton Model - Language Patterns of Influence - Would you like to use your own voice to subtly relieve stress and anxiety in others? In this section of the Training, you will learn to use the hypnotic language patterns developed by the 20th century's greatest clinical hypnotherapist, Milton H. Erickson, MD. We cover specific patterns for creating receptive states of mind and mastering the use of your own voice tone, tempo, and patterns of speech as you hone your previous skills of sensory acuity, rapport, and information gathering.

Negotiation Skills - Influencing with Integrity - You'll learn to recognize and sort out what is happening when a person is sending two conflicting messages as well as how to resolve internal conflicts in yourself and others. These skills will enable you to negotiate more effectively by developing greater mental flexibility and precision.

Six-Step Reframing - Communicating with the Unconscious - Unlock the hidden resources of your unconscious mind as you expand your negotiating and reframing skills. Complex interventions such as Six-Step Reframing will give you a precise way to uncover and address all of the unconscious concerns that have prevented you from getting what you want. Emphasis is on understanding and preserving ecology and balance to ensure that changes are congruent and lasting.

Metaphor - the most respectful form of communication, focuses on the masterful use of effective metaphors in your communication as you further integrate the skills and patterns previously learned. Precision therapeutic metaphors and conversational storytelling can provide a powerful way to assist those around in making changes gracefully. You'll discover that any NLP technique can be 'embedded' within a metaphor, further enhancing your behavioral flexibility.

Synthesis, Consolidation and Skills Integration - The final days of your Practitioner Training will focus on deeper level absorption of your skills as you work on more complex integrative techniques. This is the time to put together all of the skills you have learned into a seamless package.
