1000.eng Experiencing the Structure of Experience
1001.eng The whole issue of the “structure of experience” or the “process of experience” as used in Neuro-Linguistic Programming can be difficult and deadly dull to communicate with words, but easy to demonstrate with experience.
1002.eng So, we invite you to try this experiment, right there in the privacy of your own mind and body.
1003.eng (Note:
1004.eng This demonstration is not designed to change anything in your permanent experience, but simply to introduce you and your brain to some of the amazing connections and relationships in your internal processing that you have probably not been aware of before.)
1005.eng The objective of this experiment is to demonstrate how your experience, and your experience of your experience, depends as much on how you represent it internally, as it does on what that experience is (the process of the experience vs. the content).
1006.eng Our objective is to shift your experience of something, a memory from the past, without changing the content of that experience.
1007.eng This is a small demonstration of one aspect of the NLP information and skills toolbox.
1008.eng Ready?
1009.eng Do these steps in order:
1010.eng Step 1:
1011.eng Recall a past experience that gives you a pleasant or good feeling.
1012.eng Notice what that good feeling feels like.
1013.eng Notice also what the picture is, in your mind’s eye, that goes with that good feeling.
1014.eng If you don’t have a picture that goes with the feeling, take a moment to think about it, and just let one occur to you.
1015.eng Step 2:
1016.eng Look at your inner picture and notice the feeling that goes with it.
1017.eng Step 3:
1018.eng Now look more closely at that inner picture and answer this question:
1019.eng “Is this picture in color, or in black and white, or somewhere in between”?
1020.eng Step 4:
1021.eng If your picture is in color, use your internal visual controls to make it black and white.
1022.eng Just use your brain to turn down the color, just as you would on a color TV.
1023.eng If your picture is black and white, or without much color, turn the color up—use your brain to make the picture much more colorful.
1024.eng In what way(s) does this change in color change the meaning or the feeling of the experience that goes with the picture?
1025.eng Step 5:
1026.eng If you want, set your internal color control to wherever it helps this picture have the most positive and enjoyable feeling for you.
1027.eng Step 6:
1028.eng To experiment further, notice how bright your picture is, and make some kind of significant change in this brightness.
1029.eng For example, have the picture fade out to totally dark or gray, then try shifting it so that it becomes extremely bright and just “flashes out”.
1030.eng Notice how these changes in brightness change the feeling that goes with the experience.
1031.eng Try making a simultaneous change in color and brightness.
1032.eng What happens to the meaning or the feeling?
1033.eng To experiment more, notice where the internal picture is in the context of the external space of the room you are in.
1034.eng Notice if, in your mind’s eye, the picture is far away from your body, if it is right at the end of your nose, or if it is in the middle distance somewhere.
1035.eng Make a big change in this distance factor.
1036.eng Zoom the picture off into the far distance, and then zoom it in toward your head.
1037.eng What happens to the meaning or the feeling that this memory has for you?
1038.eng Step 7:
1039.eng In doing steps 1-6 you have probably caused some significant changes in the meaning or the feeling that goes with the memory of this experience.
1040.eng But notice that you have not made content changes about this memory—you have merely changed the structure of the visual component of the experience.
1041.eng By way of completing the experiment, set the color, brightness and distance of the picture to where they feel the best, and then let go of the picture and its accompanying feeling(s).
1042.eng Our experience of the external world is built from input from our five senses, and so is our experience of our internal world.
1043.eng The above mind/brain experiment operates in the realm of what NLP calls internal representations.
1044.eng These internal representations are the sensory events—sights, sounds, feelings, smells and tastes—that are the building blocks of our experience as human beings.
1045.eng Our experience of something in our lives—past, present or future, depends on how we structure and process our experience in terms of our internal sensory representations.
1046.eng Treasure Hunt
1047.eng Most of us have had the experience of going on a treasure hunt—if not personally, then at least through the reality TV shows that have people racing around the world following clues to get to some exotic final destination.
1048.eng The basic theme is that you get a clue, follow it to another clue, and eventually you find the treasure.
1049.eng Personal change, growth, and development can be a bit like a treasure hunt.
1050.eng The perspective of Neuro-Linguistic Programming is that the treasure you are seeking is there, inside, waiting to be discovered.
1051.eng Discovering it takes going beyond the obvious clues.
1052.eng Most of the time we only pay attention to the big clues.
1053.eng The little ones go unnoticed, and the treasure remains hidden.
1054.eng In fact, the really obvious "clues" often aren't clues at all but symptoms of something more hidden.
1055.eng They are, however, a place to start.
1056.eng Discovering the little clues can be difficult to do on your own because they are most often so hidden.
1057.eng But you can begin with the following exercises.
1058.eng Training in Neuro—Linguistic Programming or working with an NLP Practitioner are both very effective ways to continue.
1059.eng To start, acknowledge to yourself something that is present in your life that you don't want or something that you have been wanting to be present for a long time but that has been elusive.
1060.eng Acknowledging something like this doesn't mean you are broken, bad, or wrong in any way.
1061.eng It just means that there is something in your life experience that is pointing to something more fundamental, more basic, and more hidden.
1062.eng Something that, for one reason or another, you put there and that served you very well at the time.
1063.eng Something that is badly outdated and that you can change.
1064.eng To begin, bring to mind the life issue you want to explore.
1065.eng Take a moment to write it down.
1066.eng Work with just one thing at a time.
1067.eng If you have more than one thing you would like to work with, repeat the exercises taking each issue one at a time.
1068.eng In these exercises, we are inviting you to a deeper exploration of what you have just written down—that something that you don't want but that hangs around, or that something you do want that seems not possible.
1069.eng To do these exercises you will need to allow yourself to experience whatever issue you are working with.
1070.eng The more fully you allow yourself to be aware of it and feel what it feels like, the more effective the exercises will be.
1071.eng Acknowledging and allowing yourself to experience, without judgment, that issue is a huge step toward resolving it.
1072.eng The objective in these exercises is to discover some of the little clues.
1073.eng The little clues are often the things in our lives that we hold as so true, so real that we don't even consider them as having any possibility of change.
1074.eng The little clues, the ones that really pay off, are wrapped in our concept of what is.
1075.eng These are the things that we believe are as unchangeable as gravity.
1076.eng Exercise #1 .
1077.eng .
1078.eng .
1079.eng Personal Statements 1.
1080.eng Make a list of statements about yourself regarding the issue you are working with, and about the issue itself, that you believe are totally true.
1081.eng Start with the really obvious stuff "I am female (male)" and work your way to some of the more subtle ones "It's not OK for me to .
1082.eng .
1083.eng .
1084.eng „.
1085.eng Sit quietly, pen in hand, and just write down what comes.
1086.eng 2.
1087.eng Look at the list and ask yourself if everyone else believes these things about themselvesor about that kind of issue.
1088.eng The ones to which you say, "No, not everyone believes this," are all clues to how you might, through your beliefs, be keeping what you don't want present in your life or preventing what you do want from being there.
1089.eng Exercise #2 .
1090.eng .
1091.eng .
1092.eng What do you avoid?
1093.eng 1.
1094.eng Continue to acknowledge and allow yourself to experience the issue you are working with.
1095.eng Again, sit quietly with pen in hand and allow yourself to become aware of the things that you avoid regarding this issue.
1096.eng Write them down.
1097.eng What do you avoid doing?
1098.eng What do you avoid saying?
1099.eng What do you avoid acknowledging?
1100.eng The things we avoid are also little clues.
1101.eng We must respond to what we are avoiding in order to avoid it, and this limits our flexibility.
1102.eng How might things change if you stopped avoiding those things you just discovered?
1103.eng What if you found a way to allow yourself to deal directly with them?
1104.eng Exercise #3 .
1105.eng .
1106.eng .
1107.eng What emotions do you avoid?
1108.eng 1.
1109.eng Again, stay as fully present to the experience of your issue as you can.
1110.eng This time, notice the feelings and emotions that are connected with it.
1111.eng Sit quietly, pen in hand, and notice what is there.
1112.eng Write it down.
1113.eng Some of these feelings you may have been aware of for a long time.
1114.eng They are right there, connected to the issue every time you think about it.
1115.eng Allow yourself to go beyond these.
1116.eng What other feelings and emotions do you become aware of?
1117.eng The feelings and emotions we avoid are also little clues.
1118.eng What would happen if you found a way for it to be okay for you to experience them?
1119.eng What new actions might you then be able to take?
1120.eng Neuro—Linguistic Programming can be described many ways.
1121.eng One simple description is, "NLP is about changing your mind regarding what is or isn't possible for you”.
1122.eng When we change our mind, new connections are made possible in our mind and new possibility appears.
1123.eng At NLP Marin, Neuro-Linguistic Programming has become famous for asking and then guiding you to effectively answer two important questions:
1124.eng “What would you like”?
1125.eng and “What stops you”?
1126.eng Using our Holographic NLP model, the clarifying work that is done between and around these two questions gets at an inner truth, unique to each person, which then allows lives and relationships and careers to transform.
1127.eng We hope these simple exercises have assisted you to change your mind in some significant way(s).
