COURSE
Using NLP Presuppositions To Heal Relationships
With Jacci Wright
Do you have an important, but strained relationship with someone close to you, a romantic partner, a famiy member, or maybe a work colleague? Are you struggling to find ways to create harmony in that relationship, forging a future that is sustainable and compassionate? Its a very human condition, and there is an answer! This course taps into the wisdom of NLP Presupposistions. These are useful beliefs, or assumptions, that allow for different thinking, distancing you from your emotional response and allowing space for healing, love and compassion. The Presuppositions we will explore in this course are: 1. Respect all models of the world - we are unique and have our own version of reality. 2. People are not thier behaviours - behaviours are how we express our reality. 3. Every behaviour has a positive intention - even the most destructive! 4. We are all doing the best we can with the resources we have - no one is intentionally bad. By adopting these convenient assumptions about people, and reframing the behaviours that you witness, you will find that it is possible to diffuse the negative emotions that used to arise and instead become curious about what is really going on for that person. During the course you will be invited to consider a particular relationship that you wish to heal. As you apply the thinking that is promoted by each Presupposition, you will notice how it changes your thinking from asking 'Why?' to the more useful thought of 'How?' When you change to 'How?' your thinking becomes curious and compassionate, allowing space for new ways of interacting and managing your own emotional responses.

Thank you. I did all in one go as would forget to come back. The biggest take away is that once labelled negatively it’s easier to find behaviours to validate belief of them. I had 3 key people in mind. I’ll become curious to step back and see what else I’ve overlooked 💗

This was easy to follow, laid out well, and I grasped the meanings and even more ways this will help, such as helping myself to help other people. I thank you for the time you took preparing because it was so impactful and brief, thanks also for caring enough about us to want to share what helped you. I try to live the same way.

Thank you so much for this course! I've heard the term NLP, but didn't really know what it was. I found this at the perfect time, well actually I wish I'd known about it 40 years ago! I could have made far fewer mistakes! I read A Course In Miracles a long time ago and have tried to always have the framework that people are doing the best they can with the skills knowledge they have. Your course really brought this home! So thanks again
