The NLP training, free online happiness course, is coming to an end. We will include all lessons here.
NLP training is one thing; a free online course specifically centered around happiness is another. This free online NLP training has been predominantly created for our former students. We run an active post-class community for them.
NLP Training, free online happiness course
Week 1: testing for happiness
Article: NLP & Testing Happiness: How Happy Are You?
The best way to start any coaching session or change is by making the unconscious conscious. Often, we are aware that we are unhappy with no idea as to why. We are even prone to feel that because we experience feelings of unhappiness in one place of our life, that it is ALL of our life. We need to make conscious where in our life the pressure points are. We used a tool many life coaches use called the “Life Wheel.”
Week 2: Measuring Happiness Using Science
Article: Science & NLP: The Definition of Happiness
Did you know that 97% or more studies yearly by psychologists were (and perhaps are) about negative emotions and mental illness? And the vast majority of those are about depression and anxiety! There were virtually no studies as to how to become happy. When a group of scientists became increasingly frustrated that they couldn’t get their clients to become happy or achieve well-being, they decided that this field should be developed. The first problem was that to do scientific research you must first define happiness so that you can measure it objectively. In this week, the scientific definition is explained and, much like in week one, we measure for ourselves how happy we are in each area that combine to be well-being.
