An 8-day exploration of our human potential with International Trainers Bobbi & Tom Best

 Next Scheduled for Early 2009 

Prerequisite: NLP Practitioner Certification

Beyond the tools of the mind and heart mastered in your previous NLP training, this Post-Practitioner NLP seminar will provide you with Tools of the Spirit.

     Depth exploration of the higher logical levels will include Trainer skills, advanced personal applications and generative strategies for integrating all your NLP skills. In addition, you'll discover how participation with the Spiritual level beyond the ego can transform all other levels.

Our lives are utterly dependent on energy in it's many forms.  From our physical body to the highest aspirations of our spirit, the way we use our energy determines the quality of our lives. Evolutionary NLP will take us into a profound exploration of  a reality in which we create, expand, and manifest the energy of our body, mind and spirit.

     Ideally, our life-force energy  ( whether it manifests physically, emotionally or mentally ) flows unobstructed from moment to moment with effortless grace. At times, however, that energetic flow becomes blocked and we experience physical pain, emotional distress or mental anguish...and our lives become stagnant.

      How are our human energies a reflection of Nature? How do we change the energy of a habitual behavior? What is the energy that activates wisdom?  How is the energy of the ego different from the energy of the spirit.  How do we transform destructive energy into constructive energy? What is the difference between biological and spiritual energy? How do we go beyond our own contraction of energy?  How do we accumulate, save and direct energy? How do we use energy to create our experience of time.   Participating in Evolutionary NLP will allow you to use your own body-mind to answer these questions and more.  You'll  learn how to transform one type of energy into another as we re-discover our ability to connect to the magic of life.

     Evolutionary NLP acknowledges that Attention is Destiny, plain and simple. Embracing the traditional Hawaiian principle that "Energy Flows Where Attention Goes", you'll learn how to direct the flow of your awareness to levels beyond those in which fear and separation arise so that you become the cause, rather than the effect, of your life.     At times, our energetic flow becomes blocked and we experience physical pain, emotional distress or mental anguish...and our lives become stagnant. The Evolutionary NLP explores strategies which allows us to participate fully with our life-force  (whether it manifests physically, emotionally or mentally ) so that it flows unobstructed from moment to moment with effortless grace. 

     “ A tree is a field of energy. A mountain is a field of energy. The cosmos, and everything in it, is a field of energy. The stone. The star. You.  Everything radiates, and is penetrated by, filaments of luminous energy. You could imagine yourself like a guitar, or like a harp, that is filled with invisible cords. Our bodies are just like that... filled with filaments of luminous energy. Those filaments establish communication with the infinite...and with each other.

     Long before humans were converted into concrete masses of people, they were shamans of the spirit and were serving the mystery of life. Every living being in the universe has a relationship to service, which must be discovered and developed.  All of the practices of the shaman are ways to heal our relationship to the cosmic forces and bring our  lives into balance with the weavings of energies which are in all things. "                     -Peruvian Shaman Americo Yabar-

     “When we propose looking to intact traditional cultures for the kind of balance and aesthetics which will guide us in creating personal culture, we are implicitly making a claim, namely, that there is a wisdom to the organization of traditional cultures which does not exist in our society.”

      Your Guide:  Tom Best, an International NLP Trainer for the last 23 years, currently directs Best Resources / Texas Institute of NLP,  an  NLP  training and consulting company based in San Antonio, Texas. His background in cultural anthropology and his experience with indigenous people has led him to investigate many of the connections between Neuro-Linguistic Programming and traditional  or “primitive” cultural practices in the fields of health,  spirituality ,  cultural systems, and personal identity.   His current area of interest is the interface between personal identity and the cultural matrix from which it evolves.
