does anyone know of a good nlp course that could be studied in the same distance learning format as this hypnotherapy course. i have done some study on my own but would like a qualification. so any advice would be gratefully received. is this something maybe robert himself has thought about...???!! |

Andrew, I would imagine that you are already qualified to practice NLP since it is part of your hypnotherapy course? I would also like to ask if anyone could reccomend a good book on NLP? |

thanks for the reply Bryan, i know of two really good nlp books, the first is by joseph o'connor and is called the nlp workbook. the second i found almost by accident, it is in the teach yourself range and is obviously called teach yourself nlp. i am guessing that the qualification we have does not allow us to have the letters nlp after our name, is that correct? |

I'm pretty sure that you could not have NLP after your name Andrew. But I'm also pretty sure that you can practice in it as it is part of the course.Let me rephrase that... I'm guessing that you can do this. Robert! where are you? Thanks by the way for the advice on the books I'll check them out. Talking about good books- Tapping the Healer Within (Thought Field Therapy) by Roger Callahan is pretty amazing stuff and quite straightforeward.Cheers Bryan |

Hi guys...a superb book on NLP is called 'The Magic of NLP - Demystified'...available through Amazon, etc. I am a qualified NLP Practioner, and have to say that Robert's section on NLP is informative and indeed quite comprehensive in itself. If you e-mail me privately then I can suggest some good books, points of study, etc. |

Putting an NLP course together is a daunting task and as there are so many good books about, including O'conners', there is not really a lot to be taught outside practical sessions. In other words, I believe that NLP can be self taught and a course would only give a cosmetic qualification. However, if I thought enough people are interested, I would put something together and give a college qualification, certificate or diploma, to enable letters to be used after your name. I just need a push...... |

I think Roberts course is excellent, so the thought of a similar NLP would be somthing that I would be very interested in. I have been looking into NLP courses but the cost has stopped me from doing them |

I'm seriously considering taking the course. I have been interested in NLP having been introduced to the concept via reading Anthony Robbins materials, it makes a lot of sense. My ultimate goal would be to place myself in a position where I could truly help people make the changes in their lives that give them ultimate control over their lives. In other words to really and truly make a difference in someone's life for the better. So here is another sturdy push for an inexpensive NLP certification course |

...see if there is enough interest (only eight so far)- Robert, its fair to say that if you were to create another course based on NLP. The interest would be much bigger than 8 people. Firstly because of the ripple effect from each of those interested. Also, once you have a course to offer with an additional website, just as your Hypnotherapy course has generated a large number of therapists another website will too generate interest. A great spin off, is the fact that both your sites can advertise each other. One of which, is well established already. |

Ouch!! Is that an old dog teaching a new dog old tricks? Or is it a new dog teaching an old dog new tricks? Whichever way, rest assured that if I feel it whorthwhile, I will certainely do something to everyone's benefit. I think you will all agree, that I normally put my student's and graduate's welfare first and I would want to produce an NLP course that is different and exceptional to the normal rehashed material that is available everywhere on the Internet. |

nlp is a series of techniques that are taught from trainer to student. there are no distance learning courses that will certify a person to use nlp. hypnotherapists can benifit greatly by reading and watching as much richard bandler material as they possibly can get a hold of. his work is expensive. my personal view is that watching richard at work is the best way to see how nlp works. if you are in any way a good mimick, then you will be able to get some of the core of it. the majority of richard`s work is unconscious and you will find it coming out in your own sessions and in conversation the same way. his methods of looping and embedding commands into stories is brilliant and can be consumed as entertainment as well as a learning tool.there are other teachers of nlp that are good but my personal opinion is that r.b. is head and shoulders above.

I'm curious Alistair! How much did you spend learning NLP from r.b.? And, is being a good mimic what it is all about? I ask only because you sound a little snobbish in your posting and learning with a 'master' is only for those who can afford to pay and unfortunately excludes some wonderful people who are head and shoulders above many therapists that have be able to afford expensive courses. To say that there are no distance learning courses in NLP is a little naive as I would estimate that 90% of therapists who use NLP have learned it from books, some of which are very good. On a personal note, I have never attended an NLP course simply because when I started using it, many, many years ago, there was no such thing. So am I right? Is there’s a little bit of the 'snob' in you because you were able to afford an expensive course, or am I way off beam and the course you attended was low costing and within everyone's reach? (Now I'm in trouble:-) |

i am sorry if the impression i gave is one of snobbery. i was refering to the certification courses that are held through richard bandler`s organisation. i have not had the ability to beable to attain a certification yet, though it is a goal of mine. you are correct in that 90% of the learning about nlp is done through books and tapes which is how i have learned. my dvds and cds of richard bandler are a treasured possession. each time i watch them i get more stuff. i will apologise again for the tone of snobbery. i wish i could offer everyone the opportunity to see richard at work. if anyone has an idea, please feel free to contact me regarding copies that i`m not supposed to make.robert, i am eternally grateful for your course and appreciate your tactful comments regarding my post. i hope that i have clarified my position.cheers from canada. http://www.tools4change.ca hypnotherapy and nlp |

and regarding the mimicry. it is important to know how your client is doing what they are doing, so that you can help them find ways to do it differently. the inquiry aspect of nlp is about finding which sub-modalities are working for the client and which are not. the mimicry helps you to do thier thing to yourself first and then finding ways to make the sub-modalities more resourseful for the client. i find it useful to sit in thier seat for a moment or two so that we can change together, all the while firing off anchors for change and flexibility. http://www.tools4change.ca hypnotherapy and nlp |

You can add my name as well, if Robert was creating the course, but he has, so I believe, written a great fear therapy course; and I believe that he uses NLP in that course. I am considering buying it. He has developed his own techniques. Any thoughts on Robert's Fear (Phobia) therapy course related to NLP? |

Add me to your list please - I'm currently deciding whether to commence the hypnotherapy course - now sold on it & would love to also do an affordable NLP course - everything, esp in the natural therapies field, is so expensive to do & being a single parent trying to re-enter the work force (in what I consider a worthwhile career) I'm finding this so frustrating! Thank you Robert for offering this opportunity to all. |

I have some ideas that I want to share on this subject. Since taking this course, I have progressed on to other areas including EFT and NLP. I have recently completed an SNLP Practitioner training and have attended trainings with some of the worlds leading NLP trainers (though not including Richard Bandler...yet). Prior to actually attending a course I read as much as I could on the subject including Joseph O'Connor, Sue Knight, B&G, etc. Actually, since completing the courses I have read Frogs and got a lot out of it! My thoughts on the subject are that you can't really learn NLP from reading it - you need to do the exercises, you need to learn to practice NLP (i.e. be a "practitioner"). Even more than being a hypnotist, you really need to do the exercises and practice a lot. I think that it is very difficult to replace a physical instructor with a book (I can't imagine, now, how difficult it might be to learn concepts of spacial anchoring without having a quality demonstration) however, I do accept that people can't always get access to quality NLP training at a price that they can afford so I look forward to seeing what Robert is offering. Anyone who does take up such a course should be really committed to do the exercises and practice. One should remember that NLP is a lot more than the various techniques - the whole attitude is just as important. Be well, Stephen Deleted - as advertising similar courses as my own is not allowed on the forum. [This message has been edited on 05/19/2007] |
