... You and I belong to a species with a remarkable ability: we can shape events in each other’s brains with exquisite precision. Simply by making noises with our mouths, we can reliably cause precise new combinations of ideas to arise in each other’s minds. Steven Pinker [1994]
Mind-Body CompetenceCognitive-Behavior ManagementNeuro-Linguistic Programming
Neuro-linguistics holistically summarizes the body-mindconnection between language [words, symbols, etc.] and neurology. It specifies how our neurology [i.e., nervous system and brain] process language and thereby respond to language.
Words, while totally powerless to effect and change external reality, have almost complete power to create, alter, change, destroy and invent internal reality.
...“neuroscientists have learned that thoughts are electrical impulses that trigger electrical and chemical switches in the brain. Thoughts are not just psychological in nature, they are physiological - electrochemical triggers that direct and affect the chemical activity.When given an electrical command - a thought - the brain immediately does several things: It responds to the thought by releasing appropriate control chemicals into the body, and it alerts the central nervous system to any required response or action.” Shad Helmstetter
Perception differs qualitatively from the physical properties of the stimulus. The Soul Illusion
"I want you to realize that there exists no color in the natural world, and no sound - nothing of this kind; no textures, no patterns, no beauty, no scent." Sounds, colors, patterns, etc., appear to have an independent reality, yet are, in fact, constructed by the mind. All our experience of the natural world is our mind’s interpretation of the input it receives.Sir John Eccles

We experience the phenomenon of sight, sounds and sensations.
Above and beyond the sensory level representation we have sensory-based words.
Non-sensory based language refers to all language that becomes more abstract as we delete more of the specific sensory words and generalize to a higher level.
When we go ‘meta’ to a higher logical level of symbolization and use more abstract words, we use a different kind of representational system, a non-sensory based modality.
In any social environment, we have to use language which then influences and effects the ‘life’ of the system: enhancing and/or limiting, creating and/or destroying.
Our language both reflects and describes our model of the world.
Words influence because they evoke us to createrepresentations within our minds at multiple levels.
Modeling consists of using tools that have their origins in Artificial Intelligence [AI], linguistics and cognitive science research with the goal of making a model of excellent behavior, for transfer to other persons.
Language so fills our world that we move through it as a fish swims through water.
Some Universals of the Human Linguistic ProcessI. Well-formednessII. Constiuent StructureIII. Logical Semantic RelationsA. CompletenessB. AmbiguityC. Synonymy
A transformation is an explicit statement of one kind of pattern that native speakers recognize among the sentences of their language.
When a person’s model has pieces missing, it is impoverished.
Biological ConstraintsPhysical constraints that are atypical of the species.
Neurological ConstraintsSpecies specific biological constraints common to all typical species representatives.
Generalization is the process by which elements or pieces of a person’s model become detached from their original experience and come to represent this entire category of which the experience is an example. Our ability to generalize is essential to coping with the world.
Deletion is a process by which we selectively pay attention to certain dimensions of our experiences and exclude others. An example would be the ability that people have to filter out or exclude all other sound in a room full of people talking in order to listen to one particular person’s voice.
Distortion is a process that allows us to make shifts in our experience of sensory data. Fantasy, for example, allows us to prepare for experiences that we may have before they occur. All the great novels, all the revolutionary discoveries of the sciences involve the ability to distort and misrepresent reality.
ReframingThe most fundamental goal of applying verbal patterns is to help people shift their perspective:1) from a problem to an outcome, 2) from a failure to feedback, and3) from an impossibility to an ‘as if’.
The Language of SpecificityFor precision and clarity or to deframe.
The Language of EvaluationTo construct new realities & frames
Meaning [‘semantics’] exists only, and exclusively, in the ‘mind’.
