Hypnotherapy and NLP Newcastle Practice Group March 2024

NLP Practice Group Newcastle No Comments »

In March Spring has already sprung! Nature is talking her many languages in a deeply entangled dance of communications. Communication comes in many forms and subtleties both in Nature and in the communication we all engage in.

While most of our gestures are unconscious is it worth examining the kinds of gestures that accompany problems, solutions, anxiety and freedom. I am not suggesting there is a universal non-verbal communication here but within our stories and gestures there may be some very valuable information to be explored, understood in context and perhaps utilised.

NLP Master Practitioner Training in Newcastle

This March we will be exploring our gestures in useful contexts and some aspects of New Code NLP along with Rapport, Observation and being Playfully flexible with problems.

You don’t require any experience in NLP to come explore and practice aspects of NLP. Newcastle NLP and Hypnotherapy Practice Group is open and welcoming to all. There are NLP Practitioner Training courses and NLP Master Practitioner in Newcastle when you want to join a formally-informal longer training course.

The Newcastle Hypnotherapy and NLP Practice group is usually on a Saturday for in-person practice right in the lush heart of Jesmond Dene. Excellent value for a full days training.

Balancing your Self Esteem and easing Anxieties in an uncertain and unpredictable world : March 4th : Newcastle NLP and Hypnotherapy Practice Group

Hypnotherapy Practice Group Newcastle, NLP Practice Group Newcastle, Trancecafe No Comments »

The world you live in is both uncertain and unpredictable. Unless you get you reality strategy clear, your values in line with your behaviour, then you are likely to experience way too much fear and anxiety. And yes your environment and external forces really do play a huge role in anxiety and fear.

This March exploration is focused on balancing and transforming your self esteem in relationship to the world we all share. We will explore balance in terms of tantra, Buddhism; specifically some aspects of Bardo Thodol ( living in the between ) and Jungs perception and judging ‘types’. Watch the video below for a more detailed overview.

The purpose is to be more balanced with your own values and behaviours, reframing misconceptions and being more OK with who you are and what you do; culminating in feeling and doing different in a particular fear and anxiety release.

Change with Stories and Analogies : February 5th : Newcastle Hypnotherapy and NLP Practice Group

Hypnotherapy Practice Group Newcastle, NLP Practice Group Newcastle No Comments »

Stories, Fables and Analogies are part of the rich and diverse texture of all cultures, they form a huge part of our trivial and deep communications in day to day life; they also are one of the most pervasive patters that can reinforce problems and can even more nurture a systemic change, a perceptual shift, a quantum leap in an individuals positive reality.

Excellent communicators, change professionals and coaches can share really good and very relevant stories with their clients and you already have a life times experience of immensely valuable stories you can share. There are the ones you have really listened to which shape reality, anticipations; deal with and explore the inevitable life ‘events’ we will all experience at one time or another and those stories are there inside you.


Newcastle NLP Practice Group

You carry your stories with you like books, hundreds, thousands or more and they are available because of the associations you make to your current experience and aswell you know they are there in different formats when you explore the inherent and practiced stories you can use in the context of therapeutic change.

How such stories can amplify both states and relevant experiences as catalysts for change; this is part of the indirect ( bypassing the judging functions of mind ) method massively exemplified in Ericksonian hypnotherapy and also ranging towards the very direct telling and prescribing as in bardic, shamanistic and I dare say it commercial preaching. This is influencing language utilisation of change work, politics and religion.

This February we are exploring the relevant application of stories and analogies in the context of change work and coaching. Where shared stories match and offer new ways to thinking and doing, open old and forgotten learnings to displace and shift the meanings of stuck and problematic ways of being.

As a child you probably loved and looked forward to stories. Old ones and new ones where in some way you identified with the characters and the adventures they are having so in some very real way, stories can remind us that there are things we know but don’t know we know that can be transformative. Come and re-discover some of those things you know but aren’t yet remembering that are valuable treasures waiting to be unearthed again in the present.

Bereavement – When the Light Goes Out : December 4th : Newcastle Hypnotherapy and NLP Practice Group

Hypnotherapy Practice Group Newcastle, NLP Practice Group Newcastle, Trancecafe No Comments »

We all know death is the unavoidable aspect of life. Some people after a period of expected and natural mourning move on with their life while others fall into the depths of depression and melancholia and never quite recover.

This practice group exploration is not a substitute for professional 1:1 help if you experiencing bereavement; this is an exploration of some of the ways people can and do as a flower in the spring return to a full, loving and meaningful life.


Office of National Statistics figures show us in 2018 there was a far higher, peek number of deaths in January (64,154) through to April and October through November.

Your bereavement is unique to you and only you yet at the same time millions or billions of people through history have experienced a similar loss so this is pointing to the fact that there is more than hope to move back into the swing of your life.

The Newcastle NLP Practice Group will be exploring ideas from Psychotherapy, in particular Sigmund Freuds ideas regarding melancholia and unresolved interpersonal issues. Moving into Gestalt parts work for those conversations that didn’t happen during life and some themes from Zen and Stoicism as well as NLP submodality interventions to rearrange the inner order of representations and as such the meaning we are unconsciously making. And yes there will of course be hypnosis as a form of resolution for bereavement.

All proceeds from this Decembers Newcastle NLP Practice group will be donated to Coping With Cancer North East.

Better Meanings in Life : November 6th : Newcastle Hypnotherapy and NLP Practice Group

Hypnotherapy Practice Group Newcastle, Language Patterns, NLP Practice Group Newcastle No Comments »

You know that Life has no inherent meanings except the ones both yourself and society create. Making meanings is no one way street; Life Meanings are co-created both consciously and perhaps not so surprisingly unconsciously; for instance by way of your environment, your social net-works and of course you.

This November at the Newcastle NLP and Hypnotherapy practice group we are exploring the knotty subject of both how you make meaning of your life and how your meanings can and are shaped via the culture and society you are a part of. Watch the YouTube clip below for a great overview of the evenings practice and exploration.



With demonstrations and plenty of self exploration we will be examining how exterior influences can both shape and reinforce the meanings you have been making of the situations, circumstances and events in your life. Coming to explore from different perspectives how connotations, the non-literal and potentially implied aspects of your interactions ranging from conversations to seemingly insignificant micro events can, do and are supporting your opinions and potentially creating new perspectives that can transform your perceptions of reality, that is Making Better Meanings in Your Life.

A full day of fun in learning and practice for the absolutely excellent value of only £20. Secure your place using the booking link below.

 

Solution Focused Solutions

In October I attended a one day with shop with Ben Furman, one of the giants, who shares his work. I want to share with you three kinds of SF practice that can make the hope and likely hood of change much more realistic.

 

Hypnotherapy for Habits

In his seminal book, Dave Elman Hypnotherapy, Dave explicates what he regards as major discoveries in changing habits. The pivital points here being the difference twixt a known problems origin ( root cause – yuk ) and an unknown cause. The unknown cause resolution, in this mode of change, requires some regression or ‘hypno analysis’ to ascertain why this happened and following on from work in the hypnotic state, a very important conscious discussion apropos to effect the real possibility of long term generative change.

 

Hypnotic Language Patterns

Recognising as well as utilising a certain class of hypnotic language patterns, presuppositions, in this case also as to how to create and nurture a kind of perceptual reality supporting a present and future orientated anticipation of hopefulness in addition to the remembering and revising of realising new and additional skills and general wellness.

Orgiastic Enthusiasm Deconditioning Unhappy Dogma : Newcastle Hypnotherapy and NLP Practice Group : September 18th

Hypnotherapy Practice Group Newcastle, NLP Practice Group Newcastle No Comments »

Orgiastic Enthusiasm is one way to describe a way of being happier and more content more of the time as in living more spontaneously. Your conditioning, your unconscious responses and your environment are all contributing aspects to your expectations of how life is panning out for you. Have you ever really wondered how much your own ‘personal myth’ contributes to your life experiences?

At a crucial point in his life, Carl Jung asked himself a question. “What myth am I living?”


Orgiastic enthusiasm - Newcastle Hypnotherapy Practice Group

Right now there is an epidemic of seriously poor mental health. One in four people in the UK and USA have a current diagnosable mental health problem. There are astonishingly high proportion of people in the UK and USA taking anti-depressants. Why is the first port of call prescription drugs for what can be called normal moods? Could this be a dying off of the old myths and a slow awakening to the flickering possibility of a much needed new myth? Think American Gods by Neil Gaiman.

I hope to put your mind at ease and define the introductory words in their original context. Orgy in essence means Sacrament and Enthuse means to have divinity inside you, to be divinity. These are important ideas in one, a relationship to your own myth or, two, you are your own living myth. This is one of the profound differences between monotheistic and polytheistic religions.

Joseph Campbell has defined four functions of myth which are required for the myth to be functioning ‘correctly’ at the level of the individual, culturally, cosmologically and mystically. To be sure these are massively inherited yet can be updated or sublimated inside you so as to offer the potentiality to go beyond the pairs of opposites of dualistic experience and become, or at least connect with your true birth right and all the response-ability or not that comes.

All that is offered here are stories, ideas and some exercises that could be a seed source of personal transformation and shatter the Promethean chains of inherited, conditioned rights and wrongs. The same transformations can and are described in many different ways such as the process of individuation ( Jung), evolving self ( Kegan ), enlightenment ( buddhism ), moksha ( hinduism) and satori ( zen ). Hope to see you here on 18th at 7pm.

Better Boundarys and Inherent Values : Newcastle NLP and Hypnotherapy Practice Group March 2019

Hypnotherapy Practice Group Newcastle, NLP Practice Group Newcastle No Comments »

Wednesday morning just as the light dawns and birds, distant cars and a pheasant breath their song to me, I sit in the garden, neither warm or cold and for a while, without thoughts, be. All of this and much more was my immediate experience, which is now reduced to put into words.  This Trance Cafe is an exploration in boundarys and associated transitional values in some context.

A boundary is usually thought of a physical one, say a wall or your body and as such makes immediate sense. There are many other kinds of metaphorical boundrys and one of these is the intangible yet fully experienceable ‘values’ or the kinds of experiences we both seek to attain and move to avoid. There is also the being centred and unmoved kind of boundry experience. Move away, move towards and still, not moving.


Hypnotherapy Newcastle Boundarys and Values

Boundarys and values seems to me to come together or apart in our normals day to day relationships with others and with our self. This looks like something to do with expectations ( or anticipations much more fluid ) on ourself or with others. If you can become both honest and clear when and what you are expecting of yourself or another you have the chance of a true integration within yourself.

The Gestalt Prayer

I do my thing, and you do your thing.
I am not in this world to live up to your expectations
And you are not in this world to live up to mine.
You are you and I am I,
And if by chance we find each other, it’s beautiful.
If not, it can’t be helped.
– Fritz Pearls

A relational boundary or lack of can be both useful and problematic. This is going to be some kind of functions as to your own levels of development and aspects of ( as Wilber calls ) agency and communion or the need to be separate and affiliated. There may well be aspects of time as the certainty of context.

There is an old saying that is relevant to this exploration, in fact there are two.

Do unto others as you would hope they would do unto you. – Gold Standard

and from Nicolas Taleb – the more robust Silver Standard. Don’t do to others what you don’t want them to do to you.

Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Matthew 7

Come join in an exploration of Boundarys and Values with a Gestalt flavour this coming March and the Newcastle NLP and Hypnotherapy Practice Group.
