NLP Level ONE
Some years ago, a friend of mine who is a NLP master cleared a bad childhood memory, and an unwanted habit of mine in a few minutes using NLP clearing methods. I was really impressed and I thought that NLP would be a useful “tool” in my “doctors’ bag”. Later the opportunity arrived and I took NLP Level ONE. Needless to say that I was so impressed that I took all the classes offered by the school. The experience was a life changing one for me as well as many students I have got to know at the school.
A majority of abused kids unconsciously think that what happened to them was their fault. Therefore they punish themselves, all life long, in different forms and shapes, which in turn makes them angry, resentful, fearful, hypersensitive to critics, etc. This affects their job, health, money situation, and they often make wrong even detrimental choices in relationships. NLP effectively and easily clears all their negative emotions in a short period of time. Unlike other self-help and even psychiatric techniques, the beauty of NLP is that it is content free. In other words, the student clears without talking about his story.
As a physician, I am really impressed with the speed NLP could clear negative emotions, and “fix” broken people.

With each passing day I am more aware of the gift that you give by teaching NLP. Since I have temporarily relocated ... I have noticed how profoundly my world and the people in my world have been effected by the NLP skills I learned in the Level ONE, the 12-HOUR, and especially the ADVANCED.
I would like to share one particular experience that happened recently. I work with Carol who was extremely overweight and had "tried" unsuccessfully for years to initiate and maintain a regular exercise program. She claimed that her extra weight contributed to her negative self-image and poor work attitude.
Well, even I was at first surprised (I sometimes forget how powerful NLP is - I am silly!!!) that after only one reframe (of course, the important prep work preceded the technique) she began an exercise program that she has maintained for six months. She also started a diet (a few weeks after the exercise program a swish was utilized) and has lost 50 lbs. and is currently writing a book. She even has a publisher and everything!
So, on her behalf, and the behalf of many other of my colleagues, THANK YOU. Thank you for me too, as always.

Greetings and hello to everyone at NLP, Dallas. Things have been going great since my first Level ONE training. Our statistics are up in all categories but the one statistic that is most impressive is the new patient/patient accepting care ratio. This ratio is considered good if it is 80%. Patients accepting care has been 100% for the last two months in my office which we attribute to the ability to establish rapport.
For me, learning the steps to establish rapport has been the single most important lesson I have learned from Level ONE NLP training. I know that there is much more to learn and you can bet that I’ll be back for a review. There’s more good news. We have just purchased the property that we have been renting for the last 17 months. We are now landlords! I wonder if that had anything to do with establishing rapport with a banker? Ha! God bless everyone. See all of you soon!

Fourteen months after starting chiropractic college, a friend asked me to come to a lecture on NLP. That introduction led me to enroll in the [NLP Level ONE] course. As a result of that weekend course, my test scores jumped and my final grades showed that I had increased my GPA from 2.5 to 3.5 in less than one semester! I maintained a 3.5 GPA for the next 3 semesters and studied less and less.
In the first year, I studied 30-40 hours per week; after the course, I was studying 10-20 hours per week, less than 1/2 the time resulting in a grade point higher.
At that time, I took the NLP Advanced Practitioner Certification Training. As a result of the combined knowledge of these two courses, my grade point become a 4.0. I attracted and related to my patients in my internship with ease and efficiency, and I learned to absorb information without studying .I consider the NLP courses offered by NLP Learning Systems to be a vital requirement for the complete success of any student regardless of career.

20+ years later: A true story using the Fast Phobia Cure
I attended NLP classes in the 1990s and was fortunate enough to have Tony Neal perform the Fast Phobia Cure on me. Many, including Tony, didn’t know what my phobia was at the time. It was any flying, stinging insect – bees, wasps, yellow jackets, hornets, etc. The phobia was bad enough that when I played golf, I jumped out of moving golf carts more than once to get away from a bee or wasp. I’ve had one in my vehicle and had to pull over to let it out, so I didn’t have/cause an accident. So – you get the picture.
Fast forward a number of years, and you’ll never guess what I do now – I’M A BEE KEEPER!!!! That one exercise honestly changed my life 20 plus years later (Tony, thank you so much). My husband and I have 8 hives and have been successful at selling our honey at 2 local farmer’s markets. I’m still surprised every time I suit up and walk into our bee yards that I can do it, enjoy it and all without fear.
You never know how or when work done in the past will manifest itself into something amazing!!! Please fee free to share my story with others. Wishing you health, happiness, and success! Thank you!!!

TRANCEformational Selling
As you remember, my involvement with NLP began five years ago when I was a somewhat shy associate real estate agent beginning to establish myself in the metroplex market. In my attempts to improve myself, both professionally and personally, I had read many books and taken many trainings. The time and money that I invested into the study of Neuro Linguistic Programming is the best investment I ever made. The really nice part is that I have specific results in my life that came more quickly and easily as a direct result of my experiences with NLP Learning Systems in Piano.
During one of the NLP programs, there was an exercise in which each participant experientially identified the goals that they wished to achieve at the end of five years. I am proud to say that I reached all of my goals at the end of two and a half years and have been building success upon success ever since.
Goal #1 was to be named the Top Producer in Dallas. That was achieved in just two years’ time with a sales volume over $22 million and awarded the following year. Goal #2 was to earn $250,000. Again, I earned in excess of a quarter of a million dollars by the second year. In addition, though not set out as a specific goal, NLP technology enabled me to facilitate the drug rehabilitation of my son. And, in retrospect, this probably has had more importance to me than my business sales and successes.
NLP technology has enhanced my negotiation skills, rapport-building skills and has made all phases of selling significantly easier. In fact, NLP has enhanced all the other sales and motivational trainings that I’ve taken. NLP has had a way of pulling together everything I’ve learned into a body of information that is workable and doable.
Visualization has been one of the biggest benefits for me as a result of studying NLP. I now know what to visualize and how to visualize it in order to maximize my personal strategies and goals. Since my initial training in 1985, confidence in my personal power to accomplish whatever I set my mind to has soared...and keeps climbing. I’m proud to own my own company and support 30 full-time agents on my team.
I sincerely believe that none of these successes would have been possible to the degree to which I achieved them within such a short period of time without NLP.
I am forever grateful for the technology of NLP and the advanced teaching methods at the NLP Learning Systems Center in Plano. It certainly has impacted the person I am today!

Your courses have been the most practically useful in my production efforts of all the courses I have taken. Over the past decade, I have attended numerous selling skills seminars. The techniques you shared have had the most dramatic effect. They are specific, simple and flexible.
In my industry, we are selling an intangible service product and often my firm is not offering the cheapest price. So our marketing efforts have to be creative to be successful. I have been using some of the NLP techniques for the past few months. My telephone marketing skills have significantly improved. This has lightened my travel schedule which is providing me more time to handle my management responsibilities. My ability to establish customer rapport is steadily improving, as is my repeat customer base.
Some say the best indicator of success is the effect on the bottom line. My volume is up 65% over last year, while the department nationally is up 23%. I was recently promoted to Second Vice President earlier than was originally scheduled, because senior management is impressed with my results.
These successes were not created by NLP, and perhaps would have occurred. But, the NLP techniques enabled me to create the positive results faster and with less hard work. For me, that’s the real bottom line. Thanks for selling me on NLP.

I just wanted to share some wonderful updates with you since the the Sales Class and NLP level ONE. My repeated request of clients and sales has skyrocketed so that I am now 3rd from 14 therapists in our booking process. Now my schedule is always full. I also was accepted as an student at Purdue University for my bachelor. . .Within my relationship with myself and J. there are many old patterns I acknowledge now and working through it. First with myself and then with him. It is a lot of work but I know we both benefit from it. Making myself a better person will help us! How great this possibly could be!!!

12-Hour Belief Change Workshop
Dear Jan and Tony,
As I moved into my new home this weekend, I had an overwhelming feeling of deep gratitude, contemplating how profoundly my life has changed in the last two years since I took my first NLP class. Since that "12 hour belief change" weekend, all my outcomes have manifested and I'm on my way to fulfilling new, upgraded desires.
Two years ago, I moved from New Orleans, a city where I constantly felt unsafe, to Plano, one of the safest and most prosperous cities in the US! I changed jobs, from a very stressful one, with a long commute, to a joyful job, five minutes from home. My salary increased by 20% with the potential to advance in my career quickly and further increase my income.
Most importantly, as I have changed, so have the people around me. I feel that communication with my family is now deeper, kinder, and more authentic. I see daily proof of how loved and supported I am in my personal life. I hear beautiful stories from my friends about how many positives turns they have taken in their own lives.
I am using different NLP techniques daily, in my work and my personal life. It makes everything flow smoother. I am less reactive to what life throws my way and thanks to NLP, I now have many tools to improve my life and create the reality I desire.
I grew up hearing about people who don't change or it may take many long years of hard work to make any positive changes in their lives. Going through my NLP training with you, I've seen miraculous changes in my own life and those around me, happening in a very short time.
I feel great and life is really good!
May you continue your work of helping others reach their unlimited potential, for many, many years to come! This world is a better place because of you and I am lucky to have met you and moved in your neighborhood! :-)
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Hi Jan,
. . . My last investment in the 12 Hour Belief Change Workshop was such a blessing and game changer for my relationship with my mother and parents as a whole. After I left the workshop that Saturday I was still dealing with sudden nausea and some dizziness on the road, I came home and got back on the road the next day to drive out to see my mom and take her to a doctor's appointment. The energy between us was immediately different. And ever since the workshop our relationship has continued to improve in a beautiful way.
I just got home late last night from spending the weekend with my parents and my daughter. On our way home my daughter and I were discussing how nice it was to spend the weekend with them, and how much nicer and easier things are flowing when we spend time together.
My relationship with my parents, especially my mother, had always been challenging. It's been about 3 years now that we reconciled and entered each other's lives again after about 5-6 years of not being in each other's lives, and we had a similar separation a few years before that, where we were out of each other's lives for a little over a year.
Before the workshop I had already begun the process of accepting my mom for everything that she was and couldn't be for me. The class helped me see my mom in a different light and accept her at a different level. I still have my moments of irritants with her, but the intensity is definitely less, I recognize it and start processing it to let it go much quicker. I am also working with her and dropping seeds of information to see how much information or knowledge she's willing to accept more on the 5D level. I slowly hear her change some of the words she uses as well as her actions. My dad, unfortunately, is not open at all . . . So I do the same with my dad, love him and accept him for who he is.
I want to thank you for sharing your gifts as a teacher and a leader. The workshop itself helped me heal on so many levels, and I know it's helping my mom and family heal as well. . .
Thank you again Jan, I am sending you the biggest hug from Houston at the moment!

Quantum Clearing System (QCS) ~ Subtle Energy
I started this retreat with a doubtful intrigue - 'knowing' - that it was impossible to teach all 3 systems in a weekend. For 3 days, I witnessed the I'm-possible, invisible doors opening, a phoenix flying, and spaceships in the night.
"Magical", "wonder", "awe", might begin to explain the initial walk through the door. I assure you, the grandeur of this event cannot be overstated; months have passed, and there are still learnings from this weekend that I have yet to unravel.

9-Week Chakra Meditation Course
"Thank you for the gift of the Meditation Workshop. After a month’s worth of classes, I am really feeling the benefits. I look forward to the rest of the classes in the Meditation Workshop and participating in future courses at your center. Thanks again!"
- A.M.F., Dallas, TX
"People respond to me in a friendly and happy manner because of the colors of the chakras I wear, especially orange, yellow and purple tones. One can say that I have a happy and colorful personality now. . .It's a great class with good insight and guided meditations and you talking which is never boring. It was after the class when my higher self prompted me to stop at a green light for a red light runner. It was your teaching that made me listen and trust and it saved me from harm."

Diamonds In Your Mind
I wanted you to be aware of my remarkable recovery from multiple surgeries, for which I give almost total credit to NLP and to the Silva System (Diamonds) with their "mind-over-matter" philosophies.
In January of 1994, 1 had low back surgery to "cure the pain" in my right leg. The pain had been severe and constant for about two years. (I know--I should not have waited so long). My recovery from this surgery was rapid and uneventful, but did not "cure the pain". So, in June, 1994, I had surgery again. This time the surgery was for replacement of an arthritic right hip.
Afterward the Doctor (Dr. Gottshalk, Southwest Medical Center and Zale Lipshy Hospital) indicated that:
- I would be hospitalized for seven to ten days. I was sent home in four days. This was so unprecedented that even the insurance company questioned it.
- I would have to use a walker for at least a week. I never did use a walker.
- I would be on crutches for at least 30 days. I used crutches for eight days.
- I would have to use a cane for a year. I discarded the cane for good in October, four months after my surgery, after using it less and less when I returned to work.
(A side benefit--one of my legs had been longer than the other, which cause a John Wayne-Style Port List. I now walk without the left tilt. I think that this condition was a major contributor to my hip problem.)
The Doctor said that no one he had treated, even 40 years younger, has done as well. I have been studied by the Medical Section of Texas Women's University in Denton, and one young lady whose name I cannot recall, is using my case as part of her Advanced Degree Thesis. I have had no decrease in my mobility at all.
I feel that the Diamonds/NLP training I have had is directly responsible for my outstanding recovery. I am glad to be able to testify to that effect. Keep up the good work!
- P.S.
I am currently at week 5 with the Diamond course and practicing the telepathically communication with my dogs and omg! my 18 month old Shepard mix listens to it every time. I tried it the first not 100% sure if I can do or if it would work but he hears me. Now my 16 year old dachshund mix refuses and just looks at me and it's literally his personality. So l am so excited how this works at changing our walks and daily life in the house.
