Q. What can NLP do?

in any form. With NLP, you can identify what makes someone exceptionally

Q. Does NLP deal with emotions?
A. Yes. This is one of the things NLP does best. You
can experience it for yourself in a seminar. NLP helps people transform
debilitating emotions into empowering, resourceful feelings. Since many
therapies are very slow, based on catharsis or venting your feelings,
many people associate personal change with the expression of a lot of
unpleasant feelings. NLP offers a much more pleasant, effective way
of dealing with emotions. We assist people in going through old memories
in new ways, quickly transforming unpleasant experiences into positive
resources. We do not get into your personal content.

Q. Can you use NLP on yourself?
A. Yes. You can use some NLP patterns with yourself
immediately. This includes: changing your feelings, learning a new thinking
strategy, changing habits, motivating yourself and more. Other patterns/techniques
are primarily useful in working with others.

Q. Is NLP manipulative?
A. Since NLP is so powerful in getting results, people
want to know that it will be used to benefit them. Our training emphasizes
ways to make sure the changes you help someone get are in her or his
best interest. Knowing NLP gives you ways of protecting yourself from
manipulation by others or the media.

Q. Can I get the results I want
by reading a book, or is it better to attend a seminar?
A. NLP books are an economical way to find out more
about NLP. Attending a seminar allows you to install the technology
into behavior. Reading a book lets you know about NLP. A training is
the easiest way to have NLP skills become a natural part of your behavior
as they allow you to observe live demonstrations, practice in an encouraging
environment, get feedback and make personal changes along the way.
