NLP

A saying of NLP is that “the map is not the territory”. This has developed from the NLP practice of understanding how people organise their thinking, feeling, language and behaviour to produce the results they do. The proposition of NLP is that we all form our unique internal mental maps of the world as a product of the way we filter and perceive information absorbed through our five senses from the world around us.

 Neuro: Each of us has developed our own and unique mental filtering system for processing the millions of bits of data that are presented to different senses. From these sensory inputs of sounds, tactile awareness, internal sensations, tastes and smells our neurological filtering develop our “internal mental map” of the world.

Linguistic: We then assign our own personal meaning to the information we receive from the outside world. From this we form a second mental map were we assign language to our internal images, sounds and feelings, tastes and smells, that forms our everyday conscious awareness. The second mental map is our Linguistic Map.

Programming: Our behavioural response that occurs as a result of our neurological filtering processes and our linguistic map.
