Intro to Neuro-Linguistic Programming: Personal Change & Effective Communication

Presenters: Mark Andreas & Duff McDuffee

April 28th, 7pm

$15 (Members $10)

Neuro-Linguistic Programming is a body of practical tools for personal change and effective communication.  Join Mark Andreas and Duff McDuffee for an evening of experiential learning centered on how to gently guide your subjective experience towards useful and positive outcomes:

  • Explore the qualities of unwanted emotions and how easy it is to invite them to dissolve or change so that they work for you.
  • Discover the positive purpose of any unwanted feeling or behavior in 5-15 minutes.
  • Learn that your psychological experience has a structure.
  • Have fun learning about how others represent their experience differently.

As we guide you through some simple experiential exercises that you can carry out in the comfort of your own mind, you can have your own experience of how NLP is such a powerful method for gaining what you want in life. You’ll be able to notice how changing the way you think changes your feelings automatically, and how directly changing the way you feel can change the way you experience and act in the world.

These simple changes can have a profound effect, because with NLP you’ll be changing the way your brain encodes experience. When you change these codings, your thoughts, experience, and behavior all change. Because NLP studies how people make sense of the world, it has applications in a wide variety of fields from professional to personal. It is a vast field encompassing interpersonal skills, personal change methods, and processes to discover and teach human excellence in almost every profession and human activity.
