Therapists, CEO's, Trainers, Teachers, Sales People, Councilors, Healers, Body Workers, Managers, Attorneys and Parents. Anyone who wants to become more resourceful and effective.
Why Choose this training
There are three reasons to choose this training over any other NLP practitioner or core skills training available:
1. The single best learning format
Most NLP trainings are stuffed into an "
intensive" formats that are not ideal for acquiring a set of skills.
This training gives you the opportunity to learn NLP in the single finest learning format available anywhere. Learn NLP in weekly classes over time. Your trainer, Alexander Van Buren, has been teaching NLP this way for over a decade.
As a result, his students attain more NLP skills and retain them longer.
A weekly format is the format used by the highest level teaching organizations in the world; universities. A weekly format allows you to learn new insights and techniques, go out and practice them then review them, and then get suggestions for improvements the very next week.
This is the finest way to learn any skill. It is the method used by ALL world class athletes, musicians etc.
Can you imagine a world class athlete learning how to compete in the Olympic Games by having their coach stuff' all their instructions into 3 day intensives ever month or two?
The finest athletes, professionals, and musicians in the world train regularly, over time, on a consistent basis, week in and week out. They build their skills little by little, working on specific aspects of their game each day and each week, getting suggestions and improvements from their teacher at frequent intervals over time.
The result of a weekly learning format is exceptional skill.
This is the way people learn at the highest level teaching institutions in the world. It is the way the best of the best cultivate the highest level skill.
And it is the format used in this NLP training.
2. Interaction With the trainer
Because seating is limited to 40 people and the training is held on a weekly basis, every student receives personal attention from the trainer.
3. The approach
Most NLP practitioner certification trainings attempt to turn the participants into pseudo-therapists, as though the sole outcome of the training were to make them all personal coaches. Some NLP organizations have even renamed themselves as coaching institutes.
While NLP is certainly an extremely valuable resource for personal and executive coaching, this training's approach is different.
The goal of this training is for each participant to be able to 'Generate NLP' at a high level. Personal resourcefulness and the ability to apply the classic patterns of NLP to one's own issues, outcomes, opportunities and challenges is emphasized above everything else.
You'll find many more applications to business and personal development in Alexander's trainings. This is a different emphasis from "learning how to remove phobias" etc. for others.
Another example would be "state management". Most NLP trainings spend a lot of time teaching participants how to keep other people in resourceful states.
This training includes customized Emotional State Management modules created and developed by Alexander. They will show you in explicit detail and in depth, how to manage your OWN state in extraordinary ways.
Many participants have said that the main Emotional State Management module in this training - in and of itself - was worth the entire investment they made in the training.
In sum
This training concentrates on helping you cultivate the entire set of NLP skills and how to apply them to your own issues, challenges and life.
If you want to learn NLP to become extremely resourceful in ways most people will never experience in their life times, this is definitely the training for you.
The Real Power of NLP Skills - And This Training
The value and benefit of becoming a Practitioner of NLP does not depend on any one particular skill.
Rather, it is something extraordinary that happens when this particular group of skills is combined.
They produce something 'more'. When used in confluence, NLP skills produce an unprecedented level of resourcefulness and possibility.
So what is NLP, really?
 More than anything else, NLP is an attitude, a way of moving through the world powerfully and resourcefully.
NLP will teach you how to live in such a way that you actually turn every experience into a resource.
What's the real reason NLP is so effective and is still around 30 years after it was invented?
The world is a mosaic of endless opportunities and incredible possibilities. You are limited only by your ability to identify and then utilize the resources available.
When you learn to recognize and use opportunities and resources at a whole new level, what is possible for you to attain in your life time, will change forever.
What You'll Learn - The Curriculum
Here is an overview of the 12 skill sets you'll be learning, and some of the many benefits each one can give you.
Five other major skills (Beliefs, Identity Level Change, Metaprograms, etc.) are reserved for our Master Practitioner Training.
1. Rapport (connection and communication)
Connect with others more quickly and easily. Create trust and more open and honest communication in your relationships. Deepen and improve your relationships with friends, colleagues, spouse and children. Establish an atmosphere of ongoing friendliness with people you have just met.
Rapport skills include several abilities including calibrating the emotional state and response of others, utilizing multiple perceptual positions to genuinely get the other person's point of view, sensory acuity and utilizing other people's map of the world.
If you want to improve any particular relationship in your life, or simply improve your communication skills over all, this module is for you.
Sensory Acuity
Learn to use the subtle non verbal cues of others to deepen understanding and clarify communication.
Obtain the valuable information you need to solve problems and resolve conflicts.
Easily identify unconscious patterns in others.
2. Presuppositions
The heart of NLP and of long term change is living by new "presuppositions". These are ways of perceiving that will make you more effective and resourceful in every situation you encounter. Once you learn them, you will experience hundreds of other positive changes and benefits automatically, as a result.
These (mostly NLP based) presuppositions were modeled over 20 years ago from extraordinary people who were highly effective in fields like medicine, therapy, hypnotherapy and science.
Perceptual Positions
One definition of genius is the ability to perceive things from multiple points of view. One look at Divinci's notebooks, or the work of geniuses like Disney or Michelangelo, and you'll notice an astounding yet undeniable use of multiple points of view.
Skill in multiple points of view will allow you to obtain a level of information gathering far beyond the norm.
Entire horizons of possibilities and complete classes of resources are only accessible when you have learned to view all time frames (your past, present and future) from multiple viewpoints.
3. Modalities & Submodalities (the structure of experience)
Learn to effect human behavior at the deepest level for long term results. Learn to identify and influence the very structure of experience itself. Know how and why certain people succeed more often while others do not.
Know exactly what to change to get a better result. Discover a simple model for behavior that lets you get results time and time again. To understand modalities is to know what makes people tick, how they organize their world and how to influence behavior more effectively.
4. Emotional State Management and Anchoring
Learn the core skills for exceptional state management. Feeling good is important to all of us and is especially vital if you're in sales, management or leadership. If you want to be a champion, you must spend time in extraordinary (peak performance) states.
This section of the training will show you how to elicit optimum states in yourself and then cause them to become automatic habits.
The first secret of state management is to condition yourself to feel good more often. One helpful key to doing this is to eliminate harmful patterns and painful memories that may be preventing you from feeling good more of the time.
But that's just the beginning. The heart of exceptional state management is to acquire the ability to trigger your self into your most resourceful emotions at will.
Experience more time in positive emotional states like flow and momentum. If you don't feel good every single day, this module will show you how.
Many of my students feel that the state management skills taught in this course are worth the entire amount they invested in the training.
The basic state management skills we will cover include:
 Eliciting and accessing emotional states in yourself and others.
Maintaining resourceful emotional states.
Amplifying emotional states.
Determine the most appropriate emotion for any given context.
Calibrating (identifying) to emotional states.
Anchoring (triggering) certain emotions when you need them.
Cultivating and increasing emotional flexibility.
At least one extraordinary peak performance state such as momentum, creativity, or flow.
Interrupting destructive and unpleasant emotional states and minimizing inappropriate emotional responses.
Creating, triggering and extending the length of time you spend in extraordinary, peak performance states.
5. Outcomes
Learn to establish well formed outcomes. Clarity is super magnetism, and one of the most important habits for manifesting your desires and being a genuine resource for others.
Specifying your goals and dreams in this particular way will empower you to accomplish your goals more quickly and easily and assist others to do the same.
Be able to move any interaction in a positive direction easily and naturally. Reduce wasted time and energy when working on important projects. Learn to make your future compelling so it motivates you to action!
6. Re framing (assigning meaning to events)
What is happening in your life is far less important than how you are choosing to interpret and perceive what is happening. It is how you respond to what's happening that matters. And it is easier to respond effectively when you are interpreting the situation in a resourceful way.
NLP has taken the art of 'choosing your perception' to the max. It's vital to learn how to perceive any situation in a way that empowers you.
Once you heighten your re framing ability, you will never again experience problems in quite the same way. For one thing, problems and difficulties won't overwhelm you. Secondly, they become resources automatically.
Most people find this way of living difficult to imagine, and yet with re framing capabilities you will be able to remember to choose and determine the meaning of virtually every event in your life.
It's quite accurate to say that your resources increase geometrically once you truly become proficient in re framing.
7. Ecology
Ecology is the ability to make any change (in actions, beliefs, skills, identity or values) align with your life system so it is in harmony with your most closely held values, beliefs and way of life. Healers and therapists who do not understand and use ecology are dangerous.
This skill will allow you to eliminate what is commonly referred to as 'secondary gain'. Ecology helps you turn problems into resources and difficulties into the perfect ingredient for obtaining your objectives.
8. Strategies (cognitive sequences)
In NLP the word 'strategies' refers to a specific cognitive sequence that creates a particular result. In other words, a strategy is a combination of pictures, sounds and feelings that produce a result like motivation or creativity.
This training will show you how to up-level your personal strategies for motivation, creativity, learning, improvement, decision making and organizing time.
Learning 'strategies' will help you notice what you're doing when things are working well, and to do it more often and in more places in your life.
Conversely, you'll recognize more consciously what it is you do when things are not working, and replace those things with methods that do work.
9. Language Patterns
Meta Model
Learn the meta model, a way to cut through the fluff of generalizations, distortions and deletions used by yourself and others.
The meta model is a superlative tool that will allow you to gather information better and more accurately than ever before.
10. Language Patterns
Milton Model
Learn to use language masterfully. Influence and communicate with yourself and others more effectively and elegantly. Energy flows where attention goes; and attention is directed by language! Learn to direct and control attention and energy using language.
Learn Ericksonian hypnosis, one of the most powerful and effective methods of creating and utilizing trance states to potentiate resources.
Apply hypnotic language patterns to induce trance states, change beliefs, structure identity, facilitate outcomes and enhance values and relationships, all in the space of a normal conversation.
11. Future Pacing (installing resources permanently)
To future pace is to install something in your future so it is permanent. This skill virtually guarantees that your future will be better than your past.
Make sure you have the specific skills and information you need at important times an places in your future. Learn to install behaviors, beliefs, skills, viewpoints and values so they are permanent and automatic.
12. Interventions (patterns of effectiveness)
Learn specific optimum patterns for eliminating fears, phobias and compulsions, creating motivation, building self esteem and confidence, eliminating procrastination, creating new behaviors, changing beliefs, stopping bad habits and much more.
* Five more skills are covered in our Master Practitioner Training.
1. Beliefs - belief change and elicitation
2. Meta Programs
3. Identity Change Patterns
4. Habit creating and dis-creating
5. Training and getting better on your own |
