 Neuro- Linguistic Programming | Part 1 | Dark Psychology |

Good Day Readers, Today we will start with our new Chapter that also plays an important role in Dark Psychology, which is NLP ( Neuro-linguistic Programming ) 

So, Lets get started with our Topic:

What is NLP?

Neuro-linguistic Programming is an area of research as well as a practice that involves the way we think as human beings in conjunction with language. Even if you`re not familiar with the term, most readers will be familiar with some common mindfulness strategies which employ the elements of the NLP techniques, such as the law of attraction, cognitive behavioral therapy, and the way we talk ourselves through times of anxiety or nervousness.

Think of the professor who is getting ready to go out in front of a large classroom of college students for the first time and how she might feel very nervous. To calm herself down, she walks through in her mind how she has been preparing for years, that she is completely prepared, and there is nothing to worry about, etc. 

All of the scenarios have the potential to encourage a change in mindset to serve the individual in specific scenarios. The process follows as the person recognizes the situation and how his brain automatically responds, then engages a strategy using language and repetition to alter how the brain will process and respond to the given situation the individual is trying to overcome. 

The basis of this research involves how the brain processes and responds to information on a regular basis and the paradigm the mind forms as a response to this experience over time. First, it`s important to gain an understanding of what we`re talking about when we talk about how the brain processes information.

Every day, we are all inundated with information coming into our brains through our senses. This information comes in many forms, and when the brain gets overloaded with information to the point where it has to start picking and choosing what and when to process, we call this information overload.

Information overload occurs all the time when we are simply surrounded by too much in the way of stimuli, and the brain simply can`t process everything that is coming in. In order to make sense of the world, human beings have developed a process for categorization and prioritizing according to what we consciously and subconsciously deem as more of a priority than other kinds of information.

But the brain can actually work against us in some respects when it begins to process information out of habits that have developed from negative experiences. For Example, phobias can be formed based on just a single experience that occurred and made a dramatic impression on the one having the experience. 

Let us say a child accidently walks straight into a spider web and immediately feels spiders crawling on his skin. The boy grows up to harbor an intense fear and anxiety around spiders, and the anxiety awakens each time he is confronted with a spider.

The sensitivity could be so extreme that even the mention of spiders in conversation prompts a neurologic response, and the subject begins to feel a panic attack. His mind begins him into thinking there is a spider crawling on him. These process are our body`s ways of protecting us from future harm based on past experiences, but sometimes, this process hinders us from moving forward or getting past things that are not actually Real threats to our well-being.

The mind and body mean well, but the subject needs to somehow alter the way in which his brain is processing this particular piece of information so that the fear and anxiety that are triggered do not hold him back from living his life with confidence. Perhaps he wants to go on a backpacking trip that will involve hiking through wooden areas, but his anxiety and spider phobia keep getting in the way, so he is finding it difficult to say yes to the excursion, even though he really wants to do it.

The individual might be able to benefit from NLP research and tactics as a way to reprogram his mind to process this particular information differently in a way that will help him instead of hold him back.

So, in Part 2 of "What is NLP " we will continue to discuss about this Topic and see what it brings in our lives.
