NLP and Phobias

Glynes was terrified of dogs -- she would avoid them at all costs -- until she met George in Newquay, a fellow participant on a Zetetic NLP practitioner course.  After a practical demonstration about phobia resolution, George Hatcher - local businessman and a professional hairdresser by training - partnered Glynes to practise the format.  Glynes chose to work on her fear of dogs.

Glynes said: 'I did not forsee my fear of dogs being eliminated from my life.  I had had a phobia of dogs since I was seven.  There was a specific incident which terrified me and left me near hysterical when a dog was anywhere near me.  It was not only the fear of dogs but their possible unexpected action or reaction which troubled me.  I would cross a road or even turn back rather than pass a dog.  My husband's arms bear the finger marks.  Now, I often pass quite close to dogs before I realise.  My husband is very impressed - as am I!'

This picture shows Glynes on the beach at Newquay, after the impossible had happened.  George Hatcher is also very pleased.   
The Zetetic programme examines the structure of subjective experience.  That is, how we see, hear, and feel things and their subsequent sequence. For more information on any of the above, or about the Truro (UK) NLP practice group, please contact Elizabeth on 01326 212959 or by email. www.zeteticmind.com.
