2010 meetings
March 9th (Tuesday)Integrating Parts Joe & Melody Cheal
What do you do with a spare part? How do you handle a rogue part?
What if parts are not getting along or working in harmony?
Most of us (NLP trained or otherwise) use the concept of parts in everyday conversation. “Part of me feels like doing some exercise but another part wants to chill out in front of the TV” or “Part of me wants to spend time with the family and part of me wants to have some ‘me’ time”. The Western world tends to live in a mindset of either/or and it takes another level of thinking to transcend these dilemmas, dichotomies and double binds. In this session we will be exploring:
-
How to recognise conflicting parts in others by their non-verbal communication and their ‘linguistic indicators’,
-
How to integrate parts using classic NLP techniques with new refinements,
-
How to resolve conflicting parts using developments in the field of ‘paradox management’.
So come along and bring your parts with you…

June 8th (Tuesday) Bruce Grimley: A Research and academic perspective on NLP
NLP has a range of techniques which are very popular with coaches, counsellors and therapists. However one characteristic that NLP DOES NOT share with other coaching or counselling modalities is the ability to reference well conducted research which validates the claims of NLP practitioners.
Have you ever thought what your life would have turned out like if you had never heard of NLP? There is always the tendency to distort our thinking to support decisions we have made in the past, so how do we know from even an anecdotal perspective that NLP is any better than a walk in the park, talking to your dog, or going to an art gallery?
This open discussion and learning forum, is prompted by the publication of the first academic text in the English Language to evaluate the NLP phenomenon: Neuro-Linguistic Programming: A Critical Appreciation for Managers and Developers - Hardcover (6 Nov 2009) by Paul Tosey and Jane Mathison

Mike Penhaligan: CBT Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Mike is a qualified CBT Therapist who uses the approach extensively in his therepy practice. This is a chance to understand CBT, as distinct from NLP, and some of the protocols that surround theraputic practice rather than typical NLP approaches.
