Anything that is dealing with the sea, ocean, lake, or river and has something to do with a water craft is considered all under the umbrella of being marine related. It should come as no surprise that there are a myriad of marine self storage uses that come into play with respect to the various crafts people occasionally use on the water and the need to store those things when they are not in use.

Today, I’d like to share with you a personal encounter with the miracle of desires that become real, tangible results. I will also explain how to model my results to help you trap your own desires long enough for the universe to manifest them to you.

We have all heard about Pavlov – the guy who found that he could condition dogs to drool by merely ringing a bell. The dogs were conditioned to associate the ringing of the bell with food. In NLP we call what Pavlov did anchoring.

If you think about it anchoring plays a large part in our lives. We all have a song that makes us feel good…or bad. NLP gives you the chance to create your own anchors and to create them in other people as well.

Imagine having the people around you associate feeling good with you! How would that change your relationships with them? How about that person you are attracted to? If you could make them associate feeling of attraction with you how would that change things?

So how does anchoring work?

Someone has an intense emotional experience and at some point during that experience a specific stimulus is applied creating a neurological link between that stimulus and emotion. A negative example of this would be a woman whose husband has died. As those who attend his funeral pass they touch her on her arm while giving her their condolences. Weeks after the funeral the woman will only have to be touched on the arm for those feelings of grief to come back to her.

The stimulus could be anything from a touch to a tone of voice (how dos it feel when that certain person tells you that they love you with that certain tone of voice?) to the tapping of a pencil on a table top. The important thing is that it is used at a certain point of the experience and that it is suitably unique when there is strong emotional stimulation so the two get associated with each other.

Let’s try an exercise in developing instant self confidence:

Think of a time when you were totally confident, you felt powerful and there was no doubt in your mind. As those feelings come back to you they will peak and subside. Start clenching your fist. Repeat this and then test it by clenching your fist. If you’ve done it right you should feel a welling up of those same emotions. This is how simple it is. See what a difference anchoring can make to your life? Imagine firing off this confidence anchor whenever you are feeling a little unsure of yourself.

You can also do this to other people. The same principles apply.

The effectiveness of the anchor depends on the strength of the emotional experience, the uniqueness of the anchor and the number of times it is repeated.

This article covers the very basics of anchoring a good practitioner course will give you many powerful anchoring techniques and applications from training to playing poker.

As mentioned near the beginning of the article imagine anchoring everyone around you to positive feelings. How about being able to anchor your boss to good feelings? Would this make a difference to your career? You bet it would.

If you could anchor yourself to states of extreme confidence power and motivation that you could then fire off at any time you wanted what would be different about your life? Imagine being able to do the same to the people around you. Would this increase you power as a business leader or manager? How about doing it to your children as a parent? The possibilities are immense.

Questionnaires:

The “try it you, might like it” page has online questionnaires so that you are able to discover your sensory preference. It is sometimes the case that we rely upon or prefer to use one of our senses more than the others. This is a useful thing to identify in ourselves and in others, as each sensory preference comes with its own behavioral generalizations. When we learn about another person’s sensory preference, we are able to utilize that information to gain better rapport. This is just a small example of one area that is taught in great detail, on our NLP Practitioner training.

You can also do our life coaching questionnaire to assess your quality of life.

Wheel of life:

This a is a life coaching tool used for assessing the quality of life a person has in each area of their life and how fulfilled they may be feeling. In itself, it doesn’t necessarily create any changes, but this is certainly a useful tool in helping to highlight problem areas in a persons life.

As an NLP master professional and trainer, I reckon it would be useful for you to know what my involvement with NLP has been.

I started learning NLP more than 9 years ago and it’s been a breathtaking journey. I actually started acquainting about NLP by reading a not too many books and I even worked with ‘clients’ and family members before I got my certification. Looking behind me now, even though my skills were tiny and I’m sure I even did a few techniques wrong, I was still getting excellent results.

I then did my NLP practitioner training. Many people assume you do the practitioner training and then the master practitioner training – and that the comprehension and the skills are in the trainings.

The truth is a good course will instill inside you the systems and some of the skills that you will need, but, as significantly, a good NLP training course will accelerate your expansion and self development – removing limiting ideology and blocks while amplifying your persistence and resolve to get up and achieve.

For me, I revealed that I was able to see more, to hear more and to feel more. I started to learn a way my state, what I was thinking, to switch my own beliefs, to look at truths as creditable and not ultimate nor immovable.

NLP has been extremely liberating and I am experiencing so much more of the world. My senses have been heightened.

And yet it has been so much more than theoretical!

I’ve done every sort of sales job there is, from door to door sales to telemarketing, from consultative selling to selling retail…. and I’ve found that my NLP talents help me to realize much more than my colleagues could. Far more.

As a ‘therapist’ I have been lucky enough to be featured in the news a lot of times for cases that were intended to be ‘impossible’. These were folks that suffered from phobias, anxieties, mysterious prolonged agony and each and every one of them had endured for years and had seen so many specialists before me. And yet inside a handful of hours ( for the most difficult of cases), they were ‘sorted’.

NLP is in the doing, in the experience.

NLP stands for Neuro Linguistic Programming and you will be learning the way to overcome challenges, to switch someone’s frame of time, to dump fears in under five mins and other truly excellent feats…. and of course, the more you practice, the more you learn.

I can say, the biggest gift I’ve received from my journey into NLP is the realisation that NLP is such a lot that static, there is still that is still to be learnt and changed and many new ideas to be made. It is an exciting time.

I can now cure a phobia within a minute. I can change people’s beliefs with simply a sentence vs a ‘session’ and life is just different.

After attending even just the NLP consultant coaching your life will change. Guaranteed. You’ll understand how your brain works, you’ll begin to see patterns and most importantly, you’ll get a new angle and a new take on things.

This will continue to refine itself over time and looking back 3 years from now, you will be stunned at how significantly things have changed for you. This can continue happening forever.

A good NLP tutor will give and give, unreservedly. He/she will even give you what they’ve just created/realised because they know that in the giving, there is far more taking, there’s learning. Pick your tutor wisely.

Neuro Linguistic Programming ( NLP ) for Self Improvement

PART 3 - PERCEPTUAL POSITIONS

By

VIKRAM KARVE

I am sure you have heard people saying, “If I were in your position” or “I can see your point of view”.

The addiction to smokeless tobacco is easily as dangerous and debilitating as the addiction to smoking cigarettes. In fact, many experts proclaim that it is even more insidious. Chewing has been glamorized by sports professionals. Many people who dip smokeless started as early as 9 years of age! And by the time that many of these youngsters turn eighteen, they are overcome by throat and mouth cancer, and many are dying.

While a person with lung cancer can look normal, the face of a victim of mouth cancer can be an awful sight. Imagine how a face looks after having a jawbone cut out, or the lips or tongue surgically removed. Usually the surgical butchering of the victim’s face is all for nothing, because many die within a year or so anyway.

The experts tell us that the physical addiction to Nicotine is broken after abstaining for seven days. But the psychological part of the addiction is far stronger and may take a much longer time and a lot more effort to overcome, which makes it very difficult to give up smokeless tobacco.

There are three individual factors to the addiction to chewing tobacco. Two of the parts are mental, and one part is physical.

Part A: YOU CHEW FOR RELAXATION AND PLEASURE.

When you were a child and you started crying, your mother would put a bottle into your mouth to calm you down. You would get distracted, become more peaceful, and often go to sleep. That sequence of events was repeated many, many times so that your unconscious mind was programmed: When something goes into your mouth, you get relaxation and pleasure from it.

Now that you are mature, if you feel tense or nervous, you crave something in your mouth for relaxation and pleasure – dip!

Part B: CHEWING IS A CONDITIONED RESPONSE.

Remember Pavlov? Every time that he fed his dogs he rang a bell. After several repetitions, he could just ring the bell, and that would make the dogs salivate.

When you associate chewing tobacco with any other behavior, the other behavior will trigger cravings for tobacco and a urge to chew. This is called a conditioned response.

For example: If you chew while you watch a movie, you will automatically get an urge to chew each time you go to the movies.

Here is exactly how this conditioned response gets programmed into your unconscious: If a person chews smokeless and simultaneously drives a car, the mind takes a snapshot of the tobacco in the hand, and ties it to the image of the steering wheel, dashboard, or view out the windshield, etc.. Thereafter, every time the person drives the car, his unconscious mind fills in the missing part of the picture. It flashes an image of the chew in the hand coming towards the mouth, and the dipper gets a craving for smokeless tobacco.

You may not be consciously aware of the mental picture of the smokeless tobacco, because it may only be at the unconscious level of mind. Just as you are not consciously aware of what you are seeing through your peripheral vision until something or someone draws your attention to it. But the image is there, creating a craving for a dip.

Part C: THERE IS A PHYSICAL ADDICTION TO NICOTINE, BUT . . .

I have had the experience of working with several thousand people for tobacco cessation and I give you my personal guarantee that the physical addiction to smokeless tobacco is the weakest part of the habit. In fact, I believe that it is only ten percent of the addiction. Ninety percent of the dipping habit are the mental and emotional parts! (Parts A and B).

HERE IS WHAT THIS MEANS TO A PERSON WHO CHEWS SMOKELESS TOBACCO AND WHO WANTS TO QUIT.

What this means is that if you can eliminate the feeling of tension that causes you to chew smokeless tobacco for relaxation and pleasure (Part A) . . . and if you can extinguish the conditioned response of feeling a craving for dip when watching TV, driving, or finishing a meal, etc. (Part B) . . . then you can stop dipping tobacco without requiring willpower, and without suffering from withdrawal symptoms or weight-gain.

Hypnosis will make it easy to give up tobacco because it takes care of Parts A & B! Here is how:

Part A is where dippers dip smokeless for relaxation and pleasure. It’s our thoughts that create tension. More to the point, people always run mental movies in their mind’s eye. If the movie is negative, it creates a feeling of tension.

We can use different NLP techniques to program the unconscious mind to easily take those anxiety producing mental pictures and movies, and automatically exchange them for relaxation producing mental pictures and movies. This produces relaxation and pleasure, and obliterates the anxiety that creates the oral urges for chewing.

Because of the elimination of tension, the person who is quitting doesn’t feel the compulsion or need to substitute food in place of the chew. So quitting without weight gain is possible.

Stopping the addiction to smokeless is very similar to overcoming the addiction to food, cigarettes, and nail biting. I have many additional original articles on these topics in my free NLP and hypnosis article repository.

Part B is where people dip smokeless tobacco because chewing tobacco becomes a conditioned response to many different activities and locations. Remember in the earlier example how smoking became unconsciously associated with other activities and environments so that each time a person who chews gets into that activity or environment, the mind flashes an image of smokeless tobacco in your hand, and the image of the smokeless tobacco in your hand triggers cravings for smokeless?

There are powerful and effective NLP and hypnosis technologies that can quickly extinguish those conditioned responses so that a person’s unconscious will lose the cravings for chew, and the compulsion to chew smokeless tobacco. As a matter of fact, you can even get a compulsion to reject chewing.

In summation, when we use certain NLP techniques, it can be very easy to stop chewing without weight gain or having to suffer from withdrawal. And many of these hypnotic techniques do not even depend on post-hypnotic suggestions. They depend on programming the unconscious mind to use the same thought processes that the unconscious mind is using to create the addiction to smokeless tobacco, to eliminate the mental addiction.

Here is a fun technique for rapid change in your self or your clients. We taught this technique during one of our practice nights for our In-Depth NLP training in New York. Our students enjoyed it very much!

This technique relies on the fact that we code information in sensory terms. This means that when we think of something we see a picture, speak to ourselves, and feel feelings. This technique focuses on the picture the client sees, and in particular on details of that picture such as location. In NLP training this is called Submodalities.

Here is the NLP technique taught in our NLP practitioner course and hypnosis training in New York. The “you” referred to could be your coaching or hypnosis client or it could be you if you are doing the technique on yourself.

1. Think of some issue or problem you would like to change.

2. As you think of that notice what picture comes to mind.

3. As you think of that picture, notice where it is. Point in that direction. Notice how far away the picture is. Is the picture at eye level, above eye level or below eye level?

4. Now notice other details about the picture: is it in color or black and white? Is it a movie or a still frame? Is it 2-D or 3-D? Is it bright color or dull? Is it framed or unframed? These are called the Submodalities in NLP training.

These first 5 steps identify details of the picture associated with the thing we want to change.

Now we do the following steps to transform the picture and hence the problem:

5. Guide the client to turn round through 360 degrees. If the client is in a rotating chair they can spin the chair round. If they are in a fixed chair, ask them to stand and slowly and carefully get them to turn around, making sure they maintain their balance.

6. As they complete the turn, ask them to look at the picture once more and notice what is different. Make a careful note of the changes they notice.

7. As them to turn around again. As they complete the turn, ask them once more to look at the picture and notice what is different.

As the client turns and notices how the picture has changed, there will typically be some submodality that changes with each turn. After a number of turns (maybe 3 through 7) the picture may be transformed into a positive image, or may disappear entirely.

If the picture is transformed, move onto step 10. If the picture disappears, insert the following steps:

8. How do you want to be instead in this situation?

9. Turn once more through 360 degrees. As you complete the turn you will notice a new picture, representing how you want to be in this situation. Turn now.

Now step 10:

10. Turn one more time and notice how this picture is transformed, it may for example be bigger or brighter.

11. And now one more time. Notice how that picture is transformed.

Now, think of the original problem you used to have. How is it different now? This is hypnotic language from our hypnosis training in New York, which sets up the expectation of change.

You will find this technique produces quick and easy change. We teach this technique and others on our NLP training in New York.
