USING NLP FOR YOUR PERSONAL PATH
A Seven-Day Workshop in Findhorn with Gunda Wagner & Michael Fuchs
15
- 22 September 2007
Using the effectual framework of Neuro-linguistic Programming, we will explore the art of setting and reaching creatively realistic goals in our personal life - in alingment with our innermost values.
By comparing people who do well against those people who don't, Neuro-linguistic programming has created a "model of excellency", which reveals what behaviours and beliefs all successful people have in common, regardless of their particular field of expertise. By applying those findings to your own life, you can literally "learn to be successful", not only in your work, but in your personal life as well.
One of the most important skills to have is the ability to set well-formed outcomes, commit to an adaptable strategy and follow it through - not at all costs, but in alignment with your deepest spiritual values. This workshop will give you the tools to assess where you're at, where you really want to go, and what is realistically needed to get there. You will discover your personal hierarchy of values and how they effect your life on all levels. You will explore how to benefit from past experiences - good or "bad" - and turn stumbling blocks into stepping stones. You will also learn methods of influencing your emotional state and recalling positive states at will.
This workshop is for everyone who wants to experience tried and tested tools of personal development in a relaxed and compassionate environment, without the overblown "gung-ho" mentality found in some business approaches or motivational events. True success in not measured in figures or titles, but in happiness. Therefore, in a very pragmatic way, this week is ultimately about learning what makes you happy and how to enjoy the ride.
(This workshop follows "Using NLP for Your Spiritual Path" (May 2007) and "Using NLP for Your Healing Path" (June 2007) but can be taken separately. No previous experience of NLP is required.)
Gunda is a certified NLP trainer who has worked in both personal development and personnel management in the corporate world. She has been working with individuals and groups for over 12 years and loves to encourage people to live their passions and make the most of themselves and their life. Having worked as a journalist, musician, graphic designer and software specialist, Michael has been a counsellor, hypnotherapist and healer for many years. Drawing from a wide variety of traditions, his main focus is to empower and relax(!) people on their spiritual path. Since moving to the UK in 2003, he has mostly worked at The College of Psychic Studies in London.

USING NLP FOR YOUR HEALING PATH
A Seven-Day Workshop in Findhorn with Gunda Wagner & Michael Fuchs
30
June - 7 July 2007
Working with the understandings of Neuro-linguistic Programming - particularly those about how language affects our reality, we will learn to greatly enhance the healing we do with others and of ourselves.
Neuro-linguistic Programming was originally born out of one intriguing question: what makes the difference between an average therapist and a fantastically successful one? The result of the study was first published as "The Structure of Magic", revealing particular language patterns that all the great therapists and healers seemed to have in common. By understanding how language affects our subjective experience of the world, we can use it consciously and reliably to benefit both others and ourselves.
Have you ever wondered why you seem to get "stuck" with some clients more than others? Have you ever felt that, despite your good healing work, you somehow messed things up after a session or before it even started? Have you ever asked yourself why positive thinking and affirmations sometimes don't seem to work at all? The reasons are usually far less random than you might think! Whether you are a physical therapist, counsellor or healer of any kind, or just someone interested in healing unhelpful patterns within yourself, this workshop will provide you not only with the tools to stop unconsciously sabotaging your work, but to make your healing ever more elegant and graceful.
We will explore various key concepts of NLP relevant to healing, such as Perceptual Positions, the Communication Matrix, and the all important art of proper Framing, yet our main focus will be on playing with the Meta-Model - the system of linguistic patterns that builds a true "structure of magic".
(This week builds on "Using NLP for your Spiritual Path" (May 2007) but can be taken separately, as can "Using NLP for your Personal Path" which will follow in September. No previous experience of NLP is required.)

USING NLP FOR YOUR SPIRITUAL PATH
A Seven-Day Workshop in Findhorn with Gunda Wagner & Michael Fuchs
12
- 19 May 2007
Neuro-linguistic Programming is the art and psychology of change. It is used effectively in a wide range of applications, from therapy and teaching to advertising and conflict resolution. Because of its insights into how we mentally and emotionally perceive, process, store and retrieve information, it has sometimes been called "a manual for our mind".
Despite today's emphasis and perception of NLP primarily as a "business tool", the heart of NLP is actually rooted in a deeply compassionate understanding of human nature. Much more than just a collection of hypnotic speech patterns or mental techniques, it can serve as a map of our consciousness, providing helpful tools for our spiritual growth.
What is true, what is useful and what is the difference that makes the difference? We will examine and play with the humanistic beliefs and "kindly pragmatic" presuppositions that NLP is based on, challenging and clarifying our own understanding of how we relate to ourselves and the world.
(No previous experience required. Two more workshops, "Using NLP for Your Healing Path" & "Using NLP for your Personal Path", will follow but can be taken separately.)
