NLP can be used for personal development, phobias, and anxiety. NLP uses perceptual, behavioural, and communication techniques to make it easier for people to change their thoughts and actions. NLP relies on language processing but should not be confused with natural language processing, which shares the same acronym. https://astrolabs.com/event/intro-to-nlp/

Language and nonverbal communication systems
through which neural representations are coded,
ordered and given meaning.

11. Your
Conscious
Mind
Has limited focus
Aware of now
Asks, “WHY”Thinks logically
Analyzes Attends to information
Operates while you are awake
Works sequentially
Tries to understand the problemLike to be deliberate
Functions linearly
Is outcome oriented
Domain of language

12. Your
Unconscious
Mind
Does not process negatives
Protects you in best way unconscious knows
Is what you are not aware of
Take everything personally Uses and responds to symbols
Maintain instincts and generate habits
Needs repetition until a habit is installed
Keeps you breathingBeats your heart
Does all that you need to be alive
Organize your perceptions
Maintains your behavior

System

16. Visual Auditory Kinesthetic Auditory Digital
Eyes
Breathing
Posture
Voice
Looking slightly up or
ahead and defocused.
Looking down & left or
to the side.
Looking down right
(right-handed people).
Fully using diaphragm.
Evenly from mid- chest/
lower rib cage.
Shallow and from the
upper chest.
Tenses shoulders
causing neck to hunch.
Tension is evenly distributed
over shoulders & back. Head
often to one side.
Relaxed posture overall.
Speaks more slowly with
longer pauses, voice is
louder and pitch deeper,
chin may be down.
Good clear enunciation,
rhythmic, even pace,
marks off with tone &
tempo shifts.
Often rapid speech,
high pitch and head
may be up.
Tends to talk to
themselves
A typical Ad person
learns things by
‘making sense’ of
them.
They may experience
tension in neck and
shoulders.
They can take on the
characteristics of other
Representational
Systems.

22. The BAGEL Model was developed by
Robert Dilts to identify types of behavioral cues
associated with internal thinking strategies,
states and cognitive processes.
Body Accessing cues Gestures Eye movements Language

23. Body Accessing cues Gestures Eye movements Language
Different postures are associated with the accessing of different sensory processes and states.
BODY HEAD & SHOULDERS BREATHING
Leaning back Up or rounded Shallow / Short
Straight
Head cocked/
Shoulders back
Diaphragmatic
Leaning forward Back Deep/Abdominal

24. Accessing cues Gestures Eye movements Language
Accessing cues here, means in the form of breathing patterns and non-word vocal cues,
which give insights to cognitive patterns and internal states.
Squinted eyes Voice: High pitch, faster tempo
Knitted brow Voice: Fluctuating tone and tempo
Hands at chest/ heart Voice: deep with slower tempo
Body

25. Gestures Eye movements Language
Gestures give clues as to the orientation of a cognitive process as well as its sensory source.
Touching the eyes Gesture above eye level
Touching or pointing
towards the ear
Touching the mouth or jaw
Touching the chest or
stomach
Gestures below the neck
or downwards
