Richard Bandler Richard Bandler Richard Wayne Bandler (born February 24, 1950) is an Richard Bandler American author and trainer in the field of self-help. He is best known as the co-creator (with John Grinder) of the Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), a methodology to understand and change human behavior-patterns. He also developed other systems named Design Human Engineering (DHE) and Neuro Hypnotic Repatterning (NHR).

After his (http://www.richardbandle parents separated, he moved with his mother and stayed r.com/) mostly in and around San Francisco.[1] Bandler obtained a BA degree in philosophy and psychology from the University of California, Santa Cruz, in 1973, and an MA degree in psychology from Lone Mountain College in San Francisco in 1975.[2] Co-founding of Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) Bandler helped Robert Spitzer edit The Gestalt Approach (1973) based on a manuscript by gestalt therapist Fritz Perls (who had died in 1970). He also assisted with checking transcripts for Eye Witness to Therapy (1973).[3] According to Spitzer, "[Bandler] came out of it talking and acting like Fritz Perls."[4] While a student at University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) Bandler also led a Gestalt therapy group. John Grinder, a professor at the University, said to Bandler that he could explain almost all of the questions and comments Bandler made using transformational grammar. Grinder's specialty was in linguistics. Together, they created what they called a therapist training group. The focus of this three hour weekly group was the use of language as an agent of change. Later on, they focused on the use of language to understand and use "representational systems". Their teaching and coaching of students resulted in the development of a model intended for therapy, and this model was called the Meta-Model. This was the basis for their first book, The Structure of Magic (1975). Bandler rented accommodation to Gregory Bateson. Bateson taught at UCSC, Kresge College as did Grinder, and had moved to a community on Alba Road near the Santa Cruz mountains community of Ben Lomond. Bateson would have a profound influence on Bandler's future, introducing him and Grinder to Milton Erickson. Together Bandler, Grinder, and Erickson formed some of the foundational models for Neuro-linguistic programming.[5] In 1975 Bandler formed his own company, Meta Publications, and released Patterns of the Hypnotic Techniques of Milton H. Erickson Volume I (1975). Bandler and Grinder went on to author The Structure of Magic Volume II (1976), Patterns of the Hypnotic Techniques of Milton H. Erickson Volume II (1977) and Changing With Families (1976), the latter of which was co-authored with Virginia Satir. Bandler made a study of Moshe Feldenkrais, an Israeli physicist, martial artist and founder of the Feldenkrais school of body work, and published Feldenkrais's book, The Elusive Obvious. Bandler's classes have included components of bodywork that he studied from Feldenkrais. Since that time, Bandler's career has focused on developing and presenting NLP and related concepts as an author, publisher, public speaker and consultant. Audiences include individuals seeking life improvement, and businesses using these concepts and techniques seeking to improve their sales. Murder trial and acquittal In 1986, Corine Ann Christensen (December 8, 1954 – November 3, 1986), a former girlfriend of Bandler's friend and cocaine dealer, James Marino,[6] was shot dead in her Santa Cruz townhouse with a .357 magnum owned by Bandler. Authorities charged Bandler with her murder. Bandler testified that he had been at Christensen's house and was unable to stop James Marino from shooting Christensen in her face. After a short deliberation, a jury found Bandler not guilty.[7] Other works Since the early 1980s when Grinder and Bandler stopped working together, Bandler has written Using Your Brain for a Change (1985), Magic in Action (1992) Time for a Change (1995), Persuasion Engineering (1996) (co-author John LaValle) The Adventures of Anybody (1993), and Conversations (2005) (co-author Owen Fitzpatrick). As of 2015 Richard Bandler continues to deliver seminars in NLP, NHR and DHE.[8] Books Bandler, Richard & John Grinder (1975a). The Structure of Magic I: A Book About Language and Therapy.

  • The Truth About NLP Eye Patterns and Their Relationship with Academic Performance in Business and Management Studies (MBA)

E-mail: [email protected] Received: October 2, 2013 Accepted: October 30, 2013 Online Published: November 15, 2013 doi:10.5539/ijbm.v8n23p67 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ijbm.v8n23p67 Abstract This article looks at the relationship between eye patterns (i.e., how eyes move according to what the person is thinking or feeling) according to Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and students’ achievement in a course in an MBA program in Abu Dhabi University, United Arab Emirates. Participants for the study (N = 33) graduate students from the course. All participants were right-handed. Results show that, except for visual recall, less than half of the respondents exhibited the remaining eye patterns (i.e., visual construct, verbal recall, verbal construct, kinaesthetic and auditory digital), posited by the founders of NLP. Put in another way, respondents on average exhibited about two out of the six posited eye patterns. Correlations between eye patterns and exam results reveal that students who displayed eye patterns corresponding with verbal recall and kinaesthetic feelings, tend to do better in the exams. This paper discusses the possible benefit of training students to conform to verbal recall and kinaesthetic eye patterns, and teaching courses that emphasise on verbal recall and kinaesthetic feelings.

Origins and concepts The Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) field was born in Santa Cruz, California in the early 1970s, with the support of two founders: John Grinder (a linguist) and Richard Bandler (a psychologist). These two, helped among others by Gregory Bateson, have tried to model theories of three famous psychologists of those times: Milton Erickson, Fritz Perls and Virginia Satir. As a result they wrote several books (for instance, “The structure of magic”, or “Patterns of the hypnotic techniques of Milton H. Erickson, M.D.”) consecrating this field once for all: “The concept for NLP was originated ten years ago by John Grinder and Richard Bandler. These two men studied the working processes of noted therapists such as Fritz Perls (Gestalt), Virginia Satir (family therapy) and Milton H.

Started by John Grinder (assistant professor of linguistics), and Richard Bandler (student studying computer programming and psychology). They modelled Virginia Satir (Family Therapist), Fritz Perls (Physchotherapist and founder of Gestalt), and Milton Erickson (Hypnotherapist). John Grinder and Richard Bandler took these models and: 1) Discovered patterns of excellence. 2) Found effective ways of thinking and communicating. The creators of NLP Richard Bandler and John Grinder in the mid 70’s referred to NLP as, "an attitude, and a methodology that leaves behind a trail of techniques".

  • NLP Words and Phrases to Increase the Positive Intentions in Speaking and Writing the HISTORY and BACKGROUND of NLP
    NLP Words and Phrases to Increase the Positive Intentions In Speaking and Writing THE HISTORY AND BACKGROUND OF NLP Wikipedia.org Definition: Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is an approach to communication, personal development, and psychotherapy created by Richard Bandler and John Grinder inCalifornia, United States in the 1970s. Its creators claim a connection between the neurological processes ("neuro"), language ("linguistic") and behavioral patterns learned through experience ("programming") and that these can be changed to achieve specific goals in life.[1][2] Bandler and Grinder claim that the skills of exceptional people can be "modeled" using NLP methodology, then those skills can be acquired by anyone.[3][4][5][6][7] Bandler and Grinder also claim that NLP can treat problems such as phobias, depression, habit disorder, psychosomatic illnesses, myopia,[8]allergy, common cold,[9] and learning disorders, often in a single session.[10][11][12][13] NLP has been adopted by somehypnotherapists and in seminars marketed to business and government.[14][15] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuro-linguistic_programming ******* NLP University, one of the places I’ve learned a lot from! From their Home Page … All of the models and techniques of NLP are based on the combination of two principles: [1] The Map is Not the Territory, and [2] Life and ‘Mind’ are Systemic Processes. In the belief system of NLP it is not possible for human beings to know objective reality. Wisdom, ethics and ecology do not derive from having the one 'right' or 'correct' map of the world, because human beings would not be capable of making one.

This is the first step on what has already proven for hundreds of thousands a wonderful journey of self-discovery and continual personal improvement. Don't be fooled by the name "Neuro-Linguistic Programming" - it's not about weird mind science or those hilarious outdated 1950s mind control TV shows. NLP is about teaching you how to run the "programmes" in your mind more effectively so that you get so much more of what you want from life. In fact, NLP is a highly effective "mind tool" that enables you to get more ‘in control’ of your mind than you ever were before. That's why it is regularly used to cure phobias, decrease anxiety, reduce stress and overcome neuroses. But NLP is for more than just a tool for well-being. As you will discover in the following pages, NLP was devised to help you emulate the most successful people in the world. That means that NLP isn't only about getting over difficulties.

Erickson held was, “keep it simple.” He regularly suggested that his students could do just that by merely interrupting or changing the sequence or syntax of the patient’s habitual sets. He also alludes to the foregoing in story after story about his work with patients. The implication he makes is that substantial therapeutic results can be accomplished by interfering with the course of internal and/or external events that lead to the patient’s problem. On one occasion he intervenes by suggesting a patient walk a different route to his favorite bar and on another he asks the patient imagine watching herself from a dissociated, objective perspective. In another case, he instructs a depressed and lonely older woman, who rarely leaves her house, to give her African Violets to people in her town when they celebrate graduations, weddings, births, etc. Her depression lifts as she gets out and makes friends with hundreds of folks throughout the community. Another time, he startles a subject and shouts for her to jump out of her chair, leaving her phobia for flying behind. She reports enjoying flying home from his class. When she returns for another group session at Dr. Erickson’s office, she warns everyone not to sit in that chair so they won't catch her phobia.

  • MC NLP Factsheet
    Fact Sheet (version 1.0) Neuro Linguistic Programming WHAT IS NLP? NLP is an interdisciplinary subject which embraces, among other things, brain/mind research (neuro), the study of language (linguistic), and psychotherapy (re-patterning, or [re-]programming). Richard Bandler, co-developer of NLP, in his book Using Your Brain - For A Change, says: "Neuro-Linguistic Programming is a name that I made up to avoid having to be specialized in one field or another." Therefore, NLP, by its very nature, is difficult to define succinctly. It is often described as the study of the structure of human behaviour and is an attitude of curiosity, experimentation and flexibility, leading to a methodology of modelling that leaves behind it a trail of techniques. BRIEF HISTORY NLP was initially created in 1975 by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, in Santa Cruz, California, when mathematician Richard Bandler and associate linguistics professor John Grinder discovered that you can study or "model" human behaviour, and then, using this model, duplicate the results in someone else. They began modelling and duplicating the "magical results" of a few top communicators and therapists and using what they learned to improve other peoples skills and abilities. Some of the first people to be studied included Hypnotherapist Milton Erickson, gestalt therapist Fritz Perls and family therapist Virginia Satir. Because these models are formal they also allow for prediction and calculation. Patterns that may not have been available in any of these people's work could be calculated from the formal representations they had created. New techniques and models were (and still are being) developed.
