Going through the world

October 4th, 2009 James 4 comments

One of the things I have learned over time and through the training I have gone through is ones reality isn’t necessarily the same as others. What I mean is we each make a map and model of the world around us. It is this map/model we operate from as we go through the world.

As an example: Remember having seen something happen like an accident. Now here is the interesting thing, when others are asked about what they saw the answer is most likely different from person to person.

We each process things in our own way. Some of us rely mostly on, perhaps, our sense of sight while another the sense of what we hear. The point is we have a primary sensory channel as it were. That’s not to say we all use all our senses, it’s just to say we rely on one sense more then the others.

How could this information be helpful to understand?

The next time you are in a conversation or a situation with others notice how they are processing the world around them and begin to match the sensory channel they use. As you begin to match their reality you might find a new sense of understanding and connection with them. ( actually that’s exactly what happens )

Another way this information is helpful: Any time there seems to be some limitation you run into simply experience things differently. If you are relying on one sense over the other sensesĀ  switch senses. You might ask,”How does one do that?” If you were to just (in your mind) pop yourself out of your body and see things how others around you see or hear what others around you hear, you will come to a new understanding of what is going on. Ask yourself, “Is it how I experience the world that is limiting?” If it is. Using this technique you can gain new knowledge to overcome, adapt, and change the way you respond.

Be bold and step into another persons map and model of the world. Step out of your own map/model of the world. Gain new insights and understandings.

So what problems can NLP and hypnosis help with?

For a start, a problem is only a frame (a perspective). All frames can be changed, so NLP and hypnosis can be used to develop a more resourceful perspective on ANY problem.

But that may not be what you are asking. Ask yourself if you know people with the sorts of problems you have in mind. If so, does one person deal with these issues better than another? Does one person heal more effectively than another? From an NLP perspective, one of the things we are interested in is what are the differences in belief, attitude, resources between those individuals and how can we assist the one to develop the positive resources of the other.

But that may not be what you are asking. Here is a list of problems that hypnosis is commonly sought help for (though it is by no means exhaustive)

  • agoraphobia
