Coaching has questioning tools that draw from within yourself to bring out the best answers and solutions. No one knows better than oneself. One has all the resources to overcome a situation one can best understand. No other person than than affected person know best who just have to be led to discover the resources and solutions.

That’s what makes the difference in the whole transformation experience for anyone to take baby steps to reach their ultimate goals in life.

After been doing coaching for sometime now. I have found it absolutely satisfying especially, when I see the clients progressed well. I always look forward and being excited for them to be able to achieve what they want in life. More particularly, they can become self-effective and manage their life so much better and being so clear in their goals and the motivation behind getting to where they want to get to.

Through coaching, I’ve learned a lot from my clients on how they operate and how they have become successful as they are. Most importantly, I was able to assist them to keep modeling and improving their actions to achieve greater desired results.

Therefore, I would recommend a personal coach for anyone – one who desires to do better in what they do well, who wants to achieve their goals, who would like to manage and lead others well, who wishes to be an expert in communication and to be a better person, to manage relationships well.

Not any coach. Someone they can trust and would go right deep into the discovery of their latent core essential values that most matters. And that’s where NLP Coaches make the difference!! ]]> http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/you-know-yourself-best/nlp-coaching-making-the-difference/feed/ 0 http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/uncategorized/nlp-coaching/ http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/uncategorized/nlp-coaching/#comments Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000 leanneooi http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/?p=8 Coaching Package – 1 hour

“If it is to be, it is up to me”.

The mind can create amazing wonders and equally, disastrous havocs. It is all in our mindset what choices we desire to make.

The following inspiring story about Jerry and how he view life and near death.

Positive Thinking

by: Unknown

Read this, and let it really sink in… Then, choose how you start your day tomorrow…

Jerry is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, “If I were any better, I would be twins!” He was a unique manager because he had several waiters who had followed him around from restaurant to restaurant.

The reason the waiters followed Jerry was because of his attitude. He was a natural motivator. If an employee was having a bad day, Jerry was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.

Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up to Jerry and asked him, I don’t get it! You can’t be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?” Jerry replied, “Each morning I wake up and say to myself, Jerry, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.

I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.

“Yeah, right, it’s not that easy,” I protested. “Yes, it is,” Jerry said. “Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. The bottom line: It’s your choice how you live life.”

I reflected on what Jerry said. Soon thereafter, I left the restaurant industry to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it.

Several years later, I heard that Jerry did something you are never supposed to do in a restaurant business: he left the back door open one morning and was held up at gun point by three armed robbers. While trying to open the safe, his hand, shaking from nervousness, slipped off the combination. The robbers panicked and shot him. Luckily, Jerry was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local trauma center. After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, Jerry was released from the hospital with fragments of the bullets still in his body.

I saw Jerry about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, “If I were any better, I’d be twins. Wanna see my scars?” I declined to see his wounds, but did ask him what had gone through his mind as the robbery took place. “The first thing that went through my mind was that I should have locked the back door,” Jerry replied. “Then, as I lay on the floor, I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live or I could choose to die. I chose to live.”

“Weren’t you scared? Did you lose consciousness?” I asked. Jerry continued, “…the paramedics were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the ER and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read ‘he’s a dead man.’

I knew I needed to take action.” ” What did you do?” I asked. “Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me,” said Jerry. “She asked if I was allergic to anything. ‘Yes,’ I replied. The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled, ‘Bullets!’ Over their laughter, I told them, ‘I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead.’”

Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully. Attitude, after all, is everything.

* Positive thinking the the first step towards a happy life.
* Attitude is everything

If everyone applies just these, the whole world will live in happiness. ]]> http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/increasing-options-and-choices-gives-use-us-flexibilties-and-varieties-into-our-daily-lives/creating-more-choices-using-nlp/feed/ 0 http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/working-with-the-unconconscious-mind-to-resolve-allergy-concerns/getting-rid-of-allergies/ http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/working-with-the-unconconscious-mind-to-resolve-allergy-concerns/getting-rid-of-allergies/#comments Wed, 14 Mar 2007 04:43:00 +0000 leanneooi http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/?p=29 The Power Of The Unconscious Mind

The unconscious mind is extremely powerful and dominant. In a state of the unconscious, let super-learn occurs. In that state, we perform things without limitations, constraints and restraints. We know no fear at all.

Everyone of us is controlled more than 90% of the time by our unconscious mind. Our body and mind operates constantly at an unconscious level. Examples are -

1. Now, feel the temperature of your body;

2. Notice the difference in temperature of your skin with that of the atmosphere;

3. Now, notice the weight of your feet;

4. Feel the heart beating against your chest; and

5. While you are reading this, be aware of all the sounds around you.

You realize that indeed how deeply we are controlled unconscious. Many of our mood swings, personality, character, mindset, attitude, and just “being” are operated unconsciously. Just imagine if only we can be offered more choices to positive re-wire ourselves to make quantum positive transformation, how much more effective each one of us can be. Such choices are possible; it is only for our taking.

Phobias and allergies are wiring down wrongly to our neuro-network at some point in time and totally, unconsciously. We can get rid of them by reeducating our neurology.

Robert Dilts develop an allergy process within NLP to get rid of allergies in a very short time without medication. The following is an extract from one of his articles.

According to immunologist Dr. Michael Levi, an allergy is like a “phobia” of the immune system. In the 1950’s Levi won the World Health Association Award for his research demonstrating that viruses were infectious. As a result of his many years of work with the immune system, Levi contends that, when a person develops an allergy, the immune system has in essence formed a kind of phobic reaction to a certain type of substance, and then begins to panic when it gets around it. Symptoms of an allergy are produced by the results of this type of phobic reaction. Levi also asserts that other forms of allergies are like a “tantrum” of the immune system — that is, the immune system is throwing some sort of fit because it was not being taken care of properly, or was getting so fatigued and tired that it was striking out as a person or a child might have a tantrum.

In the same way that we learn and acquire emotional responses, our bodies learn and acquire immune responses. The fact that such deadly illnesses as small pox and polio have been virtually wiped off the face of the earth is a testament to the fact that our immune systems can learn.

The major issue in dealing with an allergy is reeducating the immune system. Our immune system has two basic ways of dealing with foreign material in our bodies – passive and active. A passive immune response is primarily carried out by macrophages – white cells in the blood stream that simply engulf and digest the foreign material. In fact, the term “macrophage” literally means “big eater.” The active immune response is carried out by “killer” T cells – cells that attack and destroy foreign matter.

The purpose of the passive immune response is to remove non-living matter from the body. The purpose of the active immune response is to attack and destroy living cells, like bacteria, that endanger the body. In the case of the virus, this means attacking cells in our bodies. This is because of the way a virus operates. A virus is basically a little bundle of genetic material that cannot reproduce itself because it lacks the rest of the cell structure to support that process. So instead the virus acts as a kind of a parasite that takes over the cells of its host in order to reproduce, depleting the resources of the unwilling host. In order to rid the body of a particular virus, then, the immune system must recognize and destroy the infected cells in our own body. In some cases this is done by actually exploding the infected cell (through a chemical reaction). This is what causes the redness and irritation associated with infections and allergies.

In the case of an allergy the immune system has made a mistake, in that it is responding to a harmless non-living foreign material as if it were a virus. Similar to a phobia, the immune system is panicking and is in such a confused state that it is attacking our own bodies even though there is no danger. In some ways it is a kind of an “I’ll show you, I’ll just hit myself” reaction.

The goal of treating an allergy involves reeducating the immune system to utilize the passive rather than active protection in response to the foreign substance – a kind of physiological re-framing.

Like a phobia an allergy is a conditioned response. In fact, research has shown that allergies can be conditioned in guinea pigs using a procedure similar to that Pavlov used in his experiments with his dogs (Russel, Dark, et al, 1984). The researchers put the smell of peppermint into the guinea pigs’ cages and then injected them with a substance that would naturally produce an active immune response. After repeating this five times over a short period of time, the researcher put the peppermint smell in the cage but did not inject the noxious substance. When they checked the blood of the guinea pigs they found that they were producing as full of an immune reaction as they would if they had been injected. Other studies (Ader & Cohen, 1981) demonstrated that rats could be conditioned to suppress immune responses.

A basic premise of psychoneuroimmunology (which is shared by NLP) is that immune responses, such as allergic reactions, can be influenced by psychological factors. There is a famous example of this, dating back to the turn of the century, documented by a physician named MacKenzie (1886) who was treating a woman with a violent allergic reaction to roses. He had an artificial rose in his office and was surprised to discover that his patient, not realizing that the rose was fake, manifested the full allergic reaction as soon as she saw the rose. The implication is that our autonomic nervous system (even our immune system) may be influenced as much by mental representations and expectations generated from within our central nervous system as by stimuli from the outside world.

Certainly, the immune system is capable of learning very quickly. Allergies are known to appear and disappear almost spontaneously. Patients with multiple personalities will have allergies in one personality and not in another. People often “outgrow” certain allergic reactions. The cells involved in active immune responses are produced in our bone marrow at the rate of about 80 million cells per minute. So once the reeducation process is done it can spread rapidly.

It is already known that allergies can, like a phobia, sometimes be treated through systematic desensitization procedures. However, like the phobia versions of these techniques, the process can be time consuming and often ineffectual. Using the model and techniques of NLP this desensitization process can be accelerated tremendously.

Both phobias and allergies also appear to be the result of what is called “response expectancy,” a process which has strong mind-body implications. Response expectancy is the same process which is at the root of the placebo effect. People can very often bring on allergic response symptoms by the strength of their imagination, as MacKenzie’s patient with the allergy to roses demonstrated. From this perspective, allergic symptoms may be the result of a type of negative placebo effect.

Sometimes an allergy is the only excuse people allow themselves to take a rest, or to pay attention to their own health. It becomes a reminder for them to take care of themselves. Often, an allergy is a communication that a person is under a fair amount of emotional or physical stress. There are even some people who are afraid of accepting the responsibility that would come with realizing that they had that much influence on their own health.

In special cases, if a person’s father, mother, or some other significant person in his or her life has had allergies, an individual may unconsciously feel that having a similar allergy is way to stay connected with those significant others.

The purpose of identifying such positive intentions and secondary gains is to help the person add more choices. An underlying principal of NLP is that ecological change comes by adding new choices, not by taking away existing choices. Before a person is ready to shift an allergic reaction, he or she may need to find other ways of addressing certain life situations.

Finding these new choices is analogous to the change the immune system needs to make. Keep in mind that an allergy is often the result of the brain and the immune system together making a mistake. The body thinks that it’s being invaded by something that is not, in fact, actually dangerous. The immune system becomes conditioned to try to defend itself against something that isn’t really harmful. The smoke, cat dander, pollen and foods to which people develop allergies don’t invade our cells like a virus. What happens is that the immune system thinks that it is being invaded, and so it strikes out at the body’s own cells. The symptoms of an allergy are the result of the immune system destroying healthy cells in the body in an attempt to protect itself from an invader that isn’t really there.

Many allergies were developed at a time in a person’s life, or under conditions which have psychological similarities to this confusion of the immune system. The immune system is the body’s equivalent of a psychological self-concept. Many people develop allergies at a time when they are at a transition point with respect to their own sense of identity. At these times a person can feel their sense of ‘self’ being challenged or threatened by something from the outside. In this case the allergy may develop as a reflection of the psychological threat, and the resulting stress it produces. Allergies associated with asthma, for instance, are often related to traumatic experiences.http://www2.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gif

To address such situations, people may need to detach themselves from those early or traumatic experiences. Using tools such as Change Personal History, Re-framing or Re-imprinting, people can be helped to recognize that their identity has evolved and is different now than it was under those early circumstances. They can discover new ways of handling their life situations and their responses to crisis or danger, in the same way that the body can learn to have a different response to old triggers and stimuli. They can imagine how they would react differently if they took their current learnings, resources and abilities back into those early situations associated with the allergic response. ]]> http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/working-with-the-unconconscious-mind-to-resolve-allergy-concerns/getting-rid-of-allergies/feed/ 0 http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/what-to-know-what-is-reframing-and-how-it-works/the-power-of-reframing-at-work/ http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/what-to-know-what-is-reframing-and-how-it-works/the-power-of-reframing-at-work/#comments Wed, 14 Mar 2007 04:35:00 +0000 leanneooi http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/?p=28 Bed-wetting / Enuresis

Yes…it is about bed-wetting and how to stop an infant or a child from doing it. This what Barbara did when faced with a child with a habit of bed-wetting. Read all about it and perhaps you can share Barbara’s experience with someone who has a child with the same concern.

“Children are very receptive to suggestion and imagery; in fact children are more often in that imaginary, magical world than in the so call real everyday adult world. Working with children in hypnosis, using a lot of bells and whistles and storytelling works great. If the child is young, crayons and paper work wonders. I sometimes have the child draw a picture of himself or herself, or write a small book about himself or herself before the 1st visit.

I meet with both the child and parents and we all enjoy this wonderful book together. Children always love to share things about their lives, and it is a great way to start rapport. I also receive the joy of seeing their lovely artwork, sharing and commenting on it. An easy technique which I used and works quite well with children 6-8 years is that I will have them create a picture in their mind about the concern, in this case, bed-wetting and we talk about how it makes them feel, etc. Then have them crumple up that picture and throw it away, and make a new picture in their mind of the way they are from now on going to be…. and then draw that new picture….. a lot of fun imagining, and with great result.” ]]> http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/what-to-know-what-is-reframing-and-how-it-works/the-power-of-reframing-at-work/feed/ 2 http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/failure-does-not-reside-in-our-vocabulary/there-is-no-such-thing-as-failure/ http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/failure-does-not-reside-in-our-vocabulary/there-is-no-such-thing-as-failure/#comments Wed, 14 Mar 2007 04:32:00 +0000 leanneooi http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/?p=27 There Is No Failure, Only Outcome / Feedback.

This is one of many presuppositions of NLP. A “presupposition” is a generalization of an occurrence of an event that hold true universally most of the time.

If each of us embark on a mindset applying this presupposition, we are better prepared for the journey ahead. There are a number of us who prior to even commencing on a journey are afraid of failure. However, if we are prepared to tell ourselves that failure never exist and that there is only progress of an outcome and a feedback of where we have reached, we will view the perspective of the journey differently.

If we reach for Pluto, and if the journey only take us to Jupiter, never frat. That outcome didn’t mean we have failed. We are more than half way across the universe. Let’s learn from that journey and what we did that was inadequate for us not being able to reached our destination. Persevere and positively know the outcome and the feedback and eventually, we will reach Pluto.

This is one “presupposition” that we need to take along with us. Our lives are dotted with journeys of various sorts. We must be prepared to have a mindset that we can never fail but have just made progress and continue to make the progress. And destination is a never-ending journey as when we reach one, there is another waiting for us. ]]> http://leanneooi.com/NLPcoach/failure-does-not-reside-in-our-vocabulary/there-is-no-such-thing-as-failure/feed/ 0
