DISTINGUISHING NEURO-SEMANTIC NLP

If you have been training NLP and Neuro-Semantics, then I’m sure that you have been asked numerous times, “So what’s the difference between NLP and Neuro-Semantics?” Or, you may have been challenged on whether the difference is real and sufficient enough to be truly a real difference.

Now there are a couple articles on www.neurosemantics.com that answers that question in some depth. There is also the new book, Neuro-Semantics: Actualizing Meaning and Performance (2012). For me, I always like to contrast what NLP modeled and what Neuro-Semantics modeled. NLP modeled representational consciousness and so gave us a very powerful Communication Model regarding how we represent information, learn, and can change our mind at this primary level. Neuro-Semantics modeled self-reflexive consciousness and so provides a very powerful model of the unconscious mind, the mind that reflects on itself layer upon layering creating the psycho-logical levels of the mind.
