Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is an approach to communication, personal development, and psychotherapy created by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in California, United States, in the 1970s

NLP is being used on us by sales and advertising all the time!! It's time to make it work towards our own goals!

NLP is very effective when you need instant results, e.g. you have to get on a plane and you have a fear of flying, or you have to deliver a public speech, and you feel intimidated. It has healing powers to an extent, the main point of NLP though is to change the thoughts and behavior patterns that have not proven beneficial in the past.
