| What Is
Memory?
Memory is the method of storage and retrieval of information in the brain - the most fundamental key to learning. Your subconscious mind can call to mind everything that's happened within your range of awareness, whether it be remembrance of a past event, where a misplaced item is, studied subject matter, names, addresses, numbers or any information needed at a specific time for a specific reason. Our methods help; forgetting is reduced, names, dates and numbers are remembered, and a lot of frustration is avoided. The Three Types of Human Remembering
The level of meaningfulness is important in memory development. Meaningfulness is key to organizing the material to be learned into a logical pattern, emphasizing the broadest concept, the theme, and then reducing the focus to fitting details. The power of association and creativity is an important tool for memory development. The "Three R's" of Remembering - or Recalling Process - All 3 steps are equally vital.

In the Learning Environment. Stress can be an overwhelming distraction to a student or test taker. Many of the skills of the HypnoCounselor, including creative visualization, metaphor, life reframing, and direct suggestion, to mention a few, are used to help reach the balanced state of calm and relaxation so essential for the successful management of stress. The Key word is – balanced! A more relaxed mind-set will help the student's performance in school. Improved study habits need to be addressed in conjunction with the stress reduction. Confidence in the tools that a student used assists in confidence of subject matter and retention. It is appropriate to determine the deficiencies in the student's study habits and reach a clear understanding of which skills need improving. Like all skills practice is needed. During the hypnosis session, positive patterns of study behavior that will be used to replace the negative habits are reinforced. Continued reinforcement is critical to attaining an enhanced learning experience. Performance and stress a kind of Ping-Pong Game. Performance is closely linked with stress: stress can both interfere with good performance as well as be the result of bad performance. We need to keep sight of this belief in our focus. Sometimes it is difficult to make a distinction as to which source of stress came first: the “dread” of not performing well or merely not performing well. The skill and habits associated with the performance need to be a top priority. |

Your
study habits are affected by both external and internal conditions.
One external factor would be the physical location of the study area.
We learn best when we study in a specific location where external
distraction is at a minimum. (Free of TV, stereo, interruptions by
family and friends, or telephone, pager or computer contact.) There
are two arena's of thought on this - one school says distractions enhance
the power to stay focused. I think it depends on the individual and
what works best.
Concentration is essential to learning, so if it becomes difficult to concentrate, it's best to leave the study area for a break. A five minute break every half-hour can improve your concentration and make learning easier. Soft background music or sounds can enhance the learning environment. Internally factors such as poor time management drains your energy and emotions, which negatively affects the learning process. Organization is the solution. Break it down into easily accomplishable segments. Hypnosis can help by programming these procedures into a learner, and hypnosis a wonderful way to block out the unavoidable external distractions. |

It is a strong tool to improve their learning and behavior experiences. |

| Learn
More When You Use All of Your Senses In hypnosis, the more sensory inputs we utilize the more likely it is to create change for a person. This is also true for learning and memory. Long term retention is lacking when we learn from just reading or listening to a lecture. What IS conducive to long term learning? Feeling, Seeing, Hearing, Touching and Doing. The experts say that we remember approximately 20% of what we read, about 30% of what we hear, about 40% of what we see, about 50% of what we say, about 60% of what we do, and.... about 90% of what we see, hear, say AND do! This is a great and extremely effective strategy. It is "Whole" learning involving every facet of our entire being. What could be more effective! Your learning will improve when you make an effort to utilize all of your sensory systems. If learning from a book, pause once in a while, close your eyes and create internal dialogue with yourself so you're actually commenting to yourself about what you are learning and how you'll remember it. Learning becomes more vivid and real to you. Create a "Flow" experience as you learn. If you can imagine yourself teaching others what you're learning, you'll benefit even more because preparing to teach is one of the best ways to learn! |

NLP Skill Development for Learning Enhancement NLP provides the tools to understand these processes and develop the individual's ability to adapt whatever they do that does not bring them the results they want, into processes that do. Neuro Linguistic Programming is the study of how each individual makes sense of his/her world uniquely through different personality patterns and sensory filters. Each person's memories, beliefs, values, decisions, favored sense (Visual, Auditory, or Kinesthetic), and what are called Metaprograms, develop over time into a unique 'model of the world'. Each of us uses this internal map and our own modalities to make sense of the world around us. This map has a profound effect on our thoughts and behaviors, and our relationships with others because we tend to think that our map is the same as everybody else's. We need to widen our scope of the world and realize everyone's patterns are unique to themselves. We need to understand these patterns to learn and also to use in our feedback. By understanding the structure of our map we can identify negative thought patterns that inhibit us (and change them); by understanding the structure of someone else's map we can assist them in doing the same thing, or use it to improve our relationship with them, whether in a business or personal context. The NAME:
It can be difficult to describe 'what' NLP is without placing it in a context. It is easier to describe 'how' it can help in a given situation. Its potential application is almost unlimited. It has been used to improve performance in sport; academic performance; sales; therapy, and self-development. It has the potential to improve any situation where communication is a factor, whether between you and someone else, or just with yourself. |

reprogram effective personal learning habits, boost self-esteem, relieve stress
and create motivation; all of which can result in enhanced learning and improved
memory. Our methods replace the negative with positives and build on
all the resources that each individual has as their own!!
