I have always been interested in NLP and it use. NLP is Neural Linglistics Programming – But instead of me trying to explain what this is here is an excerpt from Wikipedia on the concept of NLP:
NLP is based on the idea that with our senses we are able to perceive only a small part of the world. Our view of the world is filtered by our biology, experience, beliefs, values and assumptions. We act and feel based on our perception of the world rather than the real world. NLP calls each individual’s perception of the world their ‘map’. NLP teaches that our mind-body (neuro) and what we say (linguistic), interact together to form our perceptions of the world, or maps (programming). Each person’s map of the world determines feelings and behavior. Therefore, impoverished – and unrealistic – maps can restrict choices and result in problems.
Now I am going to say I am not sure if this is true or not but many people believe this and use it to its fullest. I first hear about NLP from the CD/Tapes offered by Tony Robbins. A friend of mine bought the tapes and he said they helped him. Well I was interested and did some reading and research on NLP and its uses. I will not go into my personal believe right now. But I do find it fascinating and I just love learning new things. Another person using NLP is Derren Brown. Derren using NLP for performing Mind Tricks on stage and using his way of wording and touching to force people to think of objects and things. Below you will see a sample of Derren using NLP on his TV show to get Simon Peg to change his mind on what gift he wanted. See the YouTube Clip below to see this in action and how it was performed. Pretty interesting and entertaining. Let me know if you wanted the same gift as Simon? while watching listen and see if you want the same item. Some people I have shown this to also wanted the same item. Hmm interesting. So does NLP work or not. You have to decide that on your own. Just something to think about. And let me know your comments here – Thanks

That was a great video. The teacher did a lot of anchoring on the clients left shoulder. Everytime he touched his left shoulder, he mentioned the bike or some form of the bike. He used positive feelings and the bike to anchor that spot. So at the end, he layed he hand on the clients shoulder and said, what do you want, of course he said the bike. Now he is very experienced, but we can all do anchoring techniques. Pay close attention to the end of the video where they show exactly what he did. I really enjoyed it.
