Video 18: How your programming determines your reality

In this video Jevon Dängeli introduces the underlying principles of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). He also outlines the “NLP Communication Model” which helps us to understand how we take information from the outside world into our neurology and how that in turn affects our thoughts, feelings and behaviours.

An overview of the video content:

Our unique neurological filters delete, distort and generalize everything we see, hear, feel, smell and taste to create the thoughts which determine our emotions and subsequent actions. Therefore, the reality that we experience is largely determined by what we do inside our minds.

Our experiences throughout life, including our birth, upbringing, social conditioning, education, religion, culture, etc, are what create our neurological filters. This means that everyone experiences any given situation differently.

Knowledge about the NLP Communication Model along with the application of NLP approaches enables people to ‘run their own minds’.

This leads to mental freedom, empowered responses, and mindful interactions with others.In the video below you will discover more…
