Neuro-Linguistic Processing

Neuro-Linguistic Processing, with which I became familiar through mentorship, reading, and my own therapy, taught me that Cognitive Processing can become way more effective when we learn to understand the unspoken gaps in phrases and sentences, and we pay attention to how syntax, or how our thoughts are formed, informs their meaning to us and to others. My NLP mentor and therapist introduced me to the classics of NLP, and I started attending webinars by contemporary practitioners. That is how I became familiar with Core Transformation, the brainchild of a world-renowned NLP practitioner, and the contemporary evolution of NLP. I participated in a qualitative study through which I received a few free Core Transformation sessions as a study subject, by a certified practitioner. I had an opportunity to experience in action NLP techniques I had read about that I saw as a hybrid of Jung’s Active Imagination, and time travel.    

Indeed in my estimation, NLP, Core Transformation and Jungian techniques such as Active Imagination and DreamWork, have much in common, an impression that would be confirmed to me by my involvement with A Course in Miracles and Transcendent Function. My interest in C. G. Jung’s Analytical psychology and the many related facebook pages and groups I followed, exposed me to a post about TF. I commented as I found it very powerful, and this is how I connected to the author of the post, who turned out to be an NLP practitioner by training, who was now A Course in Miracles Group Leader and a proponent of Transcendent Function which she agreed was derived from Jung’s work. We connected right away and worked closely together for almost a year, as I was using some of our mutual learning to facilitate a contemplation groups for A Course in Miracles Students and participating in Transcendent Function support groups for psychotherapists. Both of these were excellent learning opportunities.
