The Remaining Unconscious Filters - NLP Matters, Episode #042

In the current season of NLP Matters, we have been talking about the NLP Model of Communication. This model encapsulates and integrates our physiological, psychological, and cognitive functioning as it explains how humans collect and process information through our 5 senses to make meaning and create our own map of reality. In the last episode, we discussed the totally fascinating functioning of our 7 unconscious filters. Starting with– Time/Space/Matter/Energy, Language, and Memories. In this episode, we’ll be exploring another three filters - Decisions, Values and Beliefs, and Attitudes. Listen to the podcast to find out more.

Introducing 3 Unconscious Filters - NLP Matters, Episode #041

As we continue our exploration of the workings of the human mind, we can see why learning the NLP Model of Communication can assist us to apply our knowledge to create change, growth, and new behaviours.  In this episode, we’ll begin to look at the unconscious filters which sift through the incoming sensory data we experience as we continually construct our reality and our relationships with others. In the NLP Model of Communication there are seven unconscious filters that are key to how we as humans select the information/data we focus on in our external environment - time/space/matter/energy (that’s all one filter), language, memories, decisions, metaprograms, values and beliefs, and attitudes.  In this episode, we will explore how the first 3 filters - Time/ Space / Matter /Energy,  language, and our memories impact our perception and the construction of our map of reality.

Our State, Emotions, and the Role They Play - NLP Matters, Episode #040

We are now well on our way into our investigation into what NLP has to say about the totally fascinating workings of the human mind, and why this is important to how we think, behave and go about constructing our reality and our relationships with others. In this episode, we’ll look at the role of our ‘states’ or emotions.  Over the past few episodes, we've been talking about the ways in which our senses and our mind combine to construct our version of reality. So where do our internal feelings or emotions fit into this NLP Model of Communication, and why does it matter? Listen to the podcast to find out more.

The Construction of Reality: Delete, Distort and Generalise - NLP Matters, Episode #039

In the past two episodes, we have begun exploring what NLP has to say about the fascinating workings of the human mind. Learning about how our minds work reveals the structure that underpins how we think, behave, and construct our relationships with others. It means we can discover how we create our reality.  In this episode, we’ll discuss the processes that enable us to selectively filter the information or data that we then use to construct our own experience of reality. We will focus on 3 key processes: deletion, distortion, and generalization. Listen to the podcast to find out more.

The Construction of Reality to 2 Million Bits of Info - NLP Matters, Episode #038

In our last episode, we discussed how as humans, we use our senses and neurology to construct an internal version of an external reality. We also said that by definition each of these “internal representations” or “maps” are different and unique. As humans, there’s a lot of information available to us in the external environment moment to moment. So much that it’s physically impossible for our senses to take all this information in, and because we cannot process the sheer volume of information available, we go through a process of selecting the information we do take in and the information that we filter out. In this episode, we’re going to look in more detail at how this actually works as we explore how we construct our internal representation of the world and the process of filtering information.
