Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) is a psychological approach that involves analysing strategies used by successful individuals and applying them to reach a personal goal. It relates thoughts, language, and patterns of behaviour learned through experience to specific outcomes. Proponents of NLP assume that all human action is positive. Therefore, if a plan fails or the unexpected happens, the experience is neither good nor bad—it simply provides more useful information.

The key with children, especially at such a tender age, is to simplify the concepts and use engaging, relatable methods.

This course covers the following techniques:

1. Reframing

2. Anchoring

3. Visualization

4. Metaphor Use

5. Modelling

6. Belief Challenging

In addition – and this is what differentiates a ‘course’ from a series of one-way YouTube videos -  the course includes:

  • How you can offer parental support

  • Specific NLP techniques to try at home

  • How you can measure your child’s progress.

You are then invited – as is implicit throughout the course – to give feedback, suggestions and comments on the techniques, their effectiveness plus any other ideas.

Plus…..numerous Case Studies are included – in the Resources section to enable you to print them out for discussion. The Case Studies include discussion questions and you are encouraged to post your responses in the Q/A and to discuss with others.

The instructor is highly active and so all discussions, all experiences, all comments – good, bad, confused, indifferent – are welcome.

This is a course to be actively involved – far more than simply watching!
