NLP has been know as “The New Technology Of Achievement.” So why is it that many NLP Practitioners and Master Practitioners are still often a bit unhappy or not living their dreams fully?

This months practice group will be an exploration into remembering and realising the kinds of experiences that are really worth while and important to you. This will be done with due regard to personal and general ecology … and … at the same time … an invitation to re-discover the parts of you that can dare to dream.

All of the really successful people I know have two things in common - no matter what they say these days.

They are dreamers, they have created and are living their dream through dreaming and work … and quite often hard work.

“Those Who Do Not Dare To Dream, Sleep Most Of The Day” - Loesje

An evening of practice and experience that is ideal for therapists, coaches and people helpers who want new tools and techniques that are guaranteed to work to change lives.

And more importantly to stop worrying about failure and what other people think and concentrate on what you really, really want.

If like me and many other people you have been enjoying the summer sun and blue sky’s here in Newcastle upon Tyne, you might also have been enjoying how all this amazingly good weather gets people out of the house and brings us together.

Now speaking of getting out of the house and people coming together, have you ever considered how valuable it is to be able to build new relationships and improve existing ones?

All to often, myself included, I find people can get way to bogged down in work and the things that ‘you have to do’ and quite literally put the most important relationships with friends, family and partners on the back burner.

In any situation be it business, with friends or partners being able to connect and build even better relationships is an invaluable skill.

And, by using some simple tools, building relationships becomes a very learnable skill.

Whatever your job or interest is, you need to be able to connect with people and to be able to build great relationships and this is the ability to connect deeply with people when you choose to do so.

And how do you connect deeply with people?  NLP of course!

Now, you have probably had the experience of meeting some people who you really get on with famously, they are warm, seem to say all the right things. They inspire trust and friendship too … you have also likely had the opposite kind of experience with other people too …

Whatever kinds of experiences you have had in terms of connecting ( or not ) and building amazing relationships ( or not ) you will be aware that having the choice to connect deeply and build better relationships is an amazing skill that opens up a massive possibilities and opportunities for both you and the all people you meet.

So, with this in mind, you are invited to consider for yourself and the important people in your life, how further developing your skills and ability to connect and relate to others will improve your life.

With that in mind, we invite you to come to The NLP Cafe because we want those of you who are interested in connecting and building better relationships with others to have the tools to make it easier to connect more deeply with people.

And as you might expect we have scheduled the next NLP Cafe - Building Better Relationships For Summer - for this month in June just in time to for summer and the wonderful opertunities to build better relationships and really connect with people. So while the time is upon us and the weather is good, we invite you to get to the NLP Cafe the month.

And if you book your place now, you can rest assured you will be learning how to improve your skills in relating with people and connecting more meaningfully too as you enjoy the summer … and the new oppertunities that come with the summer sun and blue sky’s.

The Newcastle NLP practice group the NLP Cafe meets every month on the third Wednesday in Gosforth, Newcastle upon Tyne. The NLP Cafe is sponsored by North East based IntegrityNLP - NLP and Hypnotherapy Trainings.

Each month we have a structured practice session. The coming session on Wednesday 18th March is the NLP Forgiveness Pattern by Steve and Connirae Andreas.

Sometimes we really do need the skills and ability to be able to forgive others and to be able to forgive ourself. Quite often or more like most of the time when someone has committed what we can perceive as some deliberate or unforgivable act against us that has violated our values that can go on to cause anger, blaming and resentment. This of course can also apply to perceived self-transgressions.

Using the Forgiveness Pattern it is possible to transform what are essentially unhelpful states into forgiveness and compassion. This particular practice session does require you have some NLP skills and experience.

To have an experience of the Forgiveness Pattern and how you can put it into practice join Nigel Hetherington and Andy Hunt at the NLP Cafe workshop on Wednesday 18th March at St Oswald’s Hospice Teaching Centre at 7pm.

Pay £9.00 in advance online or £10 at the event.

The NLP Cafe is complementary for all participants on both of our current NLP Practitioner Training Courses.

Sorry! This workshop is now fully booked.

The NLP Cafe is back in the new year and taking one of the real true essences of live very seriously! Laughter!

This laughter workshop is hosted by Keith Adams of Voluntary Aspirations.

The event will be fun, stimulating and you will laugh out loud a lot.  There are a maximum of 18 places - now fully booked.

“Life today is very stressful. More than 70% of all illnesses have some relationship to stress. The best way to reduce stress is through laughter - its the best medicine and the least expensive. Research shows that laughter decreases stress hormones. Epinephrine is lowered both in anticipation of and doing laughter.

There is more. Laughter therapy helps to increase antibodies - its good for the immune system. Laughter stimulates heart and blood circulation. It is claimed that one minute of laughter is equal to ten minutes on the rowing machine. It also tones facial muscles and expressions - people look younger and are more fun when they laugh.

Laughter is socially bonding. It stimulates the creative side of the brain and leads to clear thinking. ”
