  • The Power of Understanding why your Brain can get you into Trouble

    The Power of Understanding why your Brain can get you into Trouble
    Jul 25 2024
    The triune brain, a theory that emerged in the 1960s from the pioneering work of neuroscientist Paul MacLean, is a significant milestone in our understanding of the human brain. It proposes that our brain comprises three distinct, interconnected regions, each representing a different stage in our evolutionary history. The theory suggests that these three brain parts can sometimes conflict, leading to complex human behaviour. For example, the reptilian complex might urge you to scream when stressed at someone on the phone, while the neocortex might remind you that we all have bad days and there are smarter ways to deal with them.

  • The Power of Anchors - learn how to create your own anchor

    The Power of Anchors - learn how to create your own anchor
    Jul 18 2024
    In Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), an anchor is a technique for creating an association between an external or internal trigger and a specific emotional or physiological state. For example, if a particular song pumps you up, hearing that song can quickly shift your state to motivated and energised. There are different types of anchors. You can choose the one that best suits your needs from visual, auditory, kinesthetic (touch), olfactory (smell), or gustatory (taste) anchors. You can tap into resourceful states at will, allowing you to steer your emotions and reactions in the direction you desire. It's a practical tool for personal empowerment. By creating your own powerful anchors, you can take control of your emotional states and manage your reactions effectively. Watch this show to learn how. Watch Dr Steve Livestream

  • The power of taking charge of your timelines

    The power of taking charge of your timelines
    Jul 11 2024
    In NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), a timeline refers to how we internally organise and experience time, including our memories of the past and our expectations for the future. It's not a literal timeline like those in history books but rather a mental framework shaping how we process and interact with time. Ultimately, NLP timelines are a transformative tool for understanding our perception of time and using that understanding to improve our emotional state and achieve our goals. This knowledge can inspire hope and optimism, showing us the potential for positive change in our lives. Watch Dr Steve Livestream

  • Learn how to chunk up and chunk down to boost your motivation.

    Learn how to chunk up and chunk down to boost your motivation.
    Jul 4 2024
    NLP chunking up refers to taking specific information or situations and zooming out to see the bigger picture. It's a way of shifting perspective from the details to the broader context. NLP chunking down refers to breaking down information into manageable pieces, like organising your clothes wardrobe. Chunking down specifically focuses on zooming in on the details. NLP chunking can be used in various situations. It's a helpful tool for setting goals, boosting motivation, solving problems, and understanding information better, and providing reassurance.

  • The power of your eyes and how they might reveal your hidden secrets

    The power of your eyes and how they might reveal your hidden secrets
    Jun 27 2024
    NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) equips you with the practical tool of eye-accessing cues to understand a person's preferred way of thinking or processing information. The theory is that eye movements can indicate whether someone uses visual, auditory, or kinesthetic (feeling-based) representational systems in their mind.
    • It's important to bear in mind that NLP eye-accessing cues are not absolute indicators. Factors such as cultural background, handedness, and individual differences, which we should always respect, can influence eye movements.
    • They are just one aspect of NLP and should be used with nonverbal cues, such as posture, hand movements, and tone of voice, to achieve a complete understanding.
    • Limited scientific evidence supports the reliability of NLP eye-accessing cues. While some studies have shown a correlation between eye movements and cognitive processes, the field is still evolving, and more research is needed to establish a scientific basis for these cues.

  • The power of advanced communication and influence skills

    The power of advanced communication and influence skills
    Jun 20 2024
    Pinpointing exactly when humans learned to speak is tricky because language leaves no fossils behind. Estimates range widely, from tens of thousands to millions of years ago. Words and how we express them can be a double-edged sword. They can steer us into challenging situations or unlock the doors to a more fulfilling and successful life, underscoring the profound impact of effective communication. One of the first to realise how powerful speech could be was Bob the Builder. Nobody knows when he lived, but it would have been roughly 30,000 years ago. His story is worth considering because the secrets of communication and influence he discovered are as powerful now as they were then. Watch Dr Steve Livestream

  • The power of balancing the conscious mind with the unconscious mind, and managing the ego

    The power of balancing the conscious mind with the unconscious mind, and managing the ego
    Jun 6 2024
    Here's a breakdown of the conscious mind, unconscious mind, and ego and how they work together (or sometimes against each other). Get this right and you will soar like an eagle. Get this wrong and life could be very challenging and not much fun. The Conscious Mind:
    • Picture the conscious mind as the visible tip of an iceberg, where your current thoughts, feelings, and sensations reside, like the sunlit surface of the sea.
    • You're aware of what you're thinking about, what you're feeling right now, and what you're perceiving through your senses.
    • This is where you make conscious decisions, solve problems, and analyze information.
    The Unconscious Mind:
    • This is the vast, mysterious underwater part of the iceberg.
    • It contains everything you're not currently aware of but that still influences you.
    • This includes:
      • Memories, both positive and negative, that may be tucked away.
      • Deep-seated emotions and motivations.
      • Learned habits and behaviors.
      • Unconscious biases that shape your perceptions.
    The Ego:
    • The ego acts as a mediator between the conscious and unconscious mind.
    • It's part of the conscious mind that tries to satisfy our needs and desires while following the rules of the real world.
    • The ego helps us form our sense of self-identity and navigate social situations.

  • The Power of NLP: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

    The Power of NLP: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
    May 30 2024
    Neurolinguistic programming, commonly known as NLP, is "a therapy designed to alter behavior by reprogramming unconscious patterns of thought.” NLP was co-created by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in the early 1970s. They both worked in San Francisco. Bandler was a post-graduate computer programmer, and Grinder was an academic expert in linguistics. They were both brilliant in their individual fields, and when they combined their considerable skills, the result was NLP. Hundreds of thousands, and maybe millions of people have been trained since then, and these graduates come from all walks of life, including Presidents and stars of stage, screen, and sporting arenas. What they share in common is that NLP has literally changed the way they think about themselves and the world around them. Bandler and Grinder were fascinated by individuals who produced results far beyond their peers. Their premise was,” If they can do that, then so can we. We just need to discover their secrets."
