If I were to position myself as someone coming to the course without any previous NLP skills or knowledge, I doubt I would be able to label what I learned. As an experienced NLPer I recognised a number of different skills, mirroring, matching, developing rapport, trance induction, swish technique, fast phobia cure, anchoring, new belief generator, timeline work, milton and meta models, strategy elicitation, changing personal history and more. These are all labels and I believe labelling can have a narrowing effect in that we run the risk of dividing techniques into specific areas of usage thus creating barriers for ourselves. The overall trust of the training was to encourage us to mingle all the skills into one pot and be able to unconsciously dip into that pot and pull up whatever cocktail of techniques feels appropriate in a given situation.
What induced over 400 people to spend seven exciting days doing NLP Practitioner training with Paul McKenna, Michael Breen and Richard Bandler?
I could tell you that some people went there and learnt how to become better than excellent hypnotists, communicators, therapists, parents, teachers or managers and I could tell you that other people went for and got the mind-blowing experience of learning from Paul McKenna, Richard Bandler and Michael Breen and I could even tell you about the people who discovered how to use their own brain to make changes for the better; I could tell you that some people wanted to witness and learn some of Paul McKenna's amazing hypnotic skills or I could say that others went because Michael Breen is so enormously engaging, skilful and entertaining or maybe they knew that Richard Bandler was the founder of NLP, a master teacher and linguistic magician and a wild and wonderful trainer. I could also mention that all those people got, in just one week, learning that takes some people 20 days to deliver and they got it for a third of the cost and maybe a 100 times the entertainment factor but you probably already know that.. So what I am going to tell you is how it was for me - and yes, the earth did move.. massively!
My mother used to say I was a greedy child...I always wanted more and more of everything ...And, it is still true..... I am filled with hunger... a hunger for knowledge and skills and especially knowledge and skills that enable me to gain mastery over how I view the world and to change for the better. I wanted to inhale deeply the learning, fun and excitement that exuded from the pores of my 3 master teachers, Michael, Paul and Richard.
I wasn't disappointed...I got more than I ever dreamed possible and now I find myself naturally using NLP techniques all the time, doing it to myself and to anyone around me who needs it! I had learned some of these techniques a few years ago but I was often self-conscious of 'not following the correct recipe'.
At this event I learned how to induce hypnotic states, how to lead others into a brighter, stronger, more tuneful world , how to change my beliefs about myself and the world around me, how to read the beneath-the-surface communication signals we leak from every pore and how to communicate respectfully with other people in such a way that they light up when I talk to them. What's even more important is that I learned to do it effortlessly and naturally.
What will it feel like to know you can freely and effortlessly induce trance in someone else and show them how to obliterate their past troubles with balmy, bright and positively resonant images, sounds and feelings for the rest of their lives? Pretty good? And you might feel even better knowing that you'll be doing that on the FIRST day of the training, couldn't you? My partner is still amazed at how I eased him quickly down into a relaxing trance and got him to crank up sensations of confidence and wanton lust for life and showed him how to use the memory of those experiences to erase all the bad feelings that come up whenever he wants to for the rest of his life....
How much greater would it feel if you already knew that while you are unconsciously absorbing so much learning so quickly, you are also splitting your sides with laughter... Michael, Paul and Richard promised on the first day to banish "terminal seriousness" and they did. I laughed throughout the 7 days... They showed us how to build a laughter machine inside our heads....with a button and when I mentally activate that button now it sets me off giggling and laughing... If people can learn just that one skill, imagine how much better our world will be. This stuff is so effective that a therapist friend of mine who started using it on his clients now never sees them again...but they do send him their friends and he's busier than ever...
Who wouldn't be interested in taking lifelong habits of winging, misery or just plain negative thinking and turning it round in just 10 minutes while you laugh out loud and feel great! I am a trainer and in this training I learned how to relax my trainees in such a way as to induce in them states of wanton desire for learning and to send them away with a knowledge that they will use what they learned and feel even better than they already did in for the rest of their lifetimes.....
Lifetimes are sometimes how long many phobias lasted before the advent of the NLP Fast Phobia Cure. I saw Paul McKenna and Michael Breen remove spider and snake phobias from two participants - just like that! Before the session they were terrified - After the session we saw them stroking and cuddling a snake and a tarantula... Wow - This stuff really works and quickly!
Throughout the 7 days these guys entranced us with fascinating and hilarious stories. Was it just for the fun of it? No way! What I later discovered was that every story had a meaning whether it was a metaphor or just another way of teaching us how to use the processes. And, via the medium of metaphor, linguistic brain twisters and laughter the deeper meaning was being picked up by my unconscious mind. As I learned to relax, find my centre and just let it happen, I sometimes found myself waking up a day later with a ping! The ping was a sign that I had just got some new learning! And, months later, I am still pinging. If this is what they call unconscious learning and edu-tainment - give me more, more laughter, more music, more stories and more ability to use the brilliant tool I already own - my own brain!.
The main thrust of the training was the doing. We constantly practised each new technique and as we did so, we were also building on and using the stuff we had learned the hour or the day before. This NLP training was not about learning recipes which we could repeat step by step later it was about how to mix and match a variety of magical ingredients to create our own masterpieces. Most importantly I gained the confidence to put down my books and notes, jump off my ass and, in the words of the great goddess Nike...., "Just Do It!"
I can only begin to reveal the initial layers of the deep-seated learning that Richard Paul and Michael installed in me . I am still finding out just how much more I can do with my own brain. I can tell you that it was the beginning of a major growing session for me; a chance to master out-of-this-world skills that have already and will continue to serve me for the rest of my days.
If you want to learn quickly, effortlessly and inexpensively, in a way that you have maybe never learned before and become one of the growing band of people who know they can make a difference to themselves and others and if you want to go beyond the realms of what you thought possible and if you like to laugh out loud as you have the learning experience of a lifetime and if you want to shine like a star and feel better than you believed you could, then you might just want to pick up that phone or key in that address and reserve your place on the Bandler, McKenna Breen September Practitioner training, NOW!
