Neurolinguistic Awareness

Changing an experience is not the same as changing our relationship to experience. Neurolinguistic Awareness extends NLP by examining not only how experience is organised, but how we become caught in it and how that relationship can open. Bringing NLP into careful dialogue with Buddhist perspectives on compassion, impermanence, suffering and nonself, the book combines clear explanation with brief experiential inquiries. It invites NLP-informed readers to approach thoughts, feelings, relationship and identity with greater clarity, care and responsibility.

“This book opens the path to curiosity, helps us to engage in an enquiry which puts our assumptions into question. When we look without bias, we can start to truly see the world and all its inhabitants, including ourselves, as we actually are. This is a rare and precious opportunity.”

“This book comes at just the right time! It invites us to see NLP from a new perspective. In dialogue with Buddhist philosophy and contemplative practice, it opens a path beyond deliberately changing our experience. It invites us to see the familiar anew—with wakeful awareness, less clinging and more compassion—and to discover possibilities in immediate experience beyond simply doing.”
