Your choice depends on your budget and time.   Learn NLP: Option #1 - The Fastest   Go to an 8 day NLP Training seminar by a respected NLP trainer, like mine.   In my NLP training you will get 90+ hours of experience in just 8 days!  You could study books and recordings for years and still not "get it" the way you will by participating in a seminar that uses NLP to teach you NLP.  The time compression, exercises and guidance from the trainer, make this the MOST COST EFFICIENT option.  "Learning NLP is a full body sport" - Richard Bandler.   Learn NLP: Option #2 - Fast   Have private sessions with an NLP Coach, like me.   Very effective and cost efficient for those who have done option #1 and want to advance their skills in a specific area, they have a base of experience and understanding.  For those without option #1...

Auditory 3. Kinesthetic 4. Gustatory 5. Olfactory 6. Auditory Digital, which is internal dialogue words and sentences you say in your head. You have a constant stream of sensory stimuli coming at you, which is filtered, and then you make a continuing stream of internal representations, which occur in sequences called strategies. And though you are aware of some of this, most of it - and I mean 99% of it- is going outside your conscious awareness, automatically, moment by moment, for your whole ... [more...]
