Why Do We Close Our Eyes in NLP?
What does it take to be a coach?
As a trainer of NLP I meet a lot of people who want to be Coaches or Therapists – and the tools of NLP are phenominal for helping a person to navigate their unconscious mind and make choices, changes and enhancements along the way. I get asked a lot of questions about being a Coach/Therpaist and today I am sharing a video to answer a question we get asked a lot: “what does it take to be a coach?”
I’ll continue to be honest with a lot of people – be your OWN coach first and then apply NLP to others. Not everyone is cut out to be a Coach – I’ll share a few tips and thoughts about what makes a good coach. (more…)
Thank You for Your Integrity
If you have met me in any way, you’ll know that integrity is important to me – it is high on my list of Heidi-Values. You may also know that I have an online NLP training program at AnywhereNLP.com. For some people, this is a bit controversial – if they don’t look into it.
While NLP is highly unregulated, there is one common understanding, NLP Certification cannot be offered online as it requires hands on practice, feedback, group interaction and live facilitation. My program with Anywhere NLP is not a Practitioner Certification course – I put the program together a few years ago as one of my intentions is to share NLP with as many people around the globe as possible.
Yesterday I received a fairly scathing email about the program and I would like to share this email with you and my response. I am sharing this because it did three things for me (more…)
The Downs and Ups of your Day
Over the past few months I have been modelling something that I would like to share with you – rituals of going to bed and waking up.
I have been scouring books, blog posts, interviews, articles, podcasts and more to see if there is a common theme or strategy that ‘successful’ people use for their ending and beginning rituals.
And I purposefully put it that way around. At first, when I started my research I figured how a person started their day is what set them up for success. But no! It’s actually how they end their previous day! So lets start there!
I have actually been using some of these strategies for the past 3 weeks and I am going to share some of my findings with you. I’m not doing them all – just what fits for me. But, for you -Â I have distilled my findings down for you to 5 evening and morning rituals that will set you up for success all day long. (more…)
I Don’t Wanna!
Oh to be a kid again! Clean your room – I don’t wanna. Eat your veggies – I don’t wanna. Do your homework – I don’t wanna! The list goes on.
But we can’t get away with that as adults. Well. I know plenty of adults who try!
Quite a few of my clients in fact still have the ‘I don’t wanna’ syndrome and seem to think that the choices that come with being an adult include not doing what you don’t want to do. And, this is true to some degree. If I don’t want to clean my home, I can hire someone. If I don’t want to eat my veggies – the extra layers of warmth on my tummy catch up to me.
So yes, I still have choice. (more…)
