Key West Retreat 4
We use as complementary tools of investigation and problem solving the following techniques :
Neuro-linguistic programming ( NLP)
It is an interpersonal communication model applied in psychotherapy and other contexts of communication and change.
It attempts to observe naturally self-taught expertise, and then model the processes and habitual patterns that experts intuitively use on the assumption that those behaviours were responsible for their results.
NLP was co-created by Richard Bandler and linguist John Grinder in the 1970s through observation and imitation of gestalt therapist Fritz Perls , family systems therapist Virginia Satir and psychiatrist Milton H. Erickson. The originators emphasized modeling of excellence as the core methodology, that is, the observational and information gathering methods they developed to define and produce the models of exceptional communicators
NLP is in the present and oriented towards the future
No matter the personal history, the only memory of it is in the present neurology and life. The past has no existence independent of this. Therefore what is explored is the memory and impressions of events in the present – present experiences, present constructions, and present limits, including the present beliefs about their existence and origins. What is then aimed for is to build in the present, a changed future, where old, outdated, or dysfunctional beliefs and patterns are no longer an issue.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a form of psychotherapy that was developed to resolve symptoms resulting from disturbing and unresolved life experiences. It uses a structured approach to address past, present, and future aspects of disturbing memories. The approach was developed by Francine Shapiro[1] to resolve the development of trauma-related disorders as resulting from exposure to a traumatic or distressing event, such as rape. Clinical trials have been conducted to assess EMDR’s efficacy in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Creative Visualization
Creative visualization refers to the practice of seeking to affect the outer world via changing one’s thoughts.Creative Visualization is the basic technique underlying positive thinking and is frequently used by athletes to enhance their performance.
Creative visualization is the technique of using one’s imagination to visualize specific behaviors or events occurring in one’s life.
In one of the most well-known studies on Creative Visualization in sports, Russian scientists compared four groups of Olympic athletes in terms of their training schedules:
Group 1 = 100% physical training;
Group 2 – 75% physical training with 25% mental training;
Group 3 – 50% physical training with 50% mental training;
Group 4 – 25% physical training with 75% mental training.
Group 4, with 75% of their time devoted to mental training, performed the best. “
The Soviets had discovered that mental images can act as a prelude to muscular impulses and to metabolic changes”.
