<h2>NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming.</h2>
<p>The very best definition (IMHO) is from the movie &#8220;<a href="http://www.thelivingmatrixmovie.com/" target="_blank">The Living Matrix</a>&#8221; (outstanding movie btw) and it says,<br />
<span style="background-color: yellow;">&#8220;NLP is a practical form of Psychology<br />
which starts from where you are now<br />
and looks at where you want to be<br />
and uncovers what&#8217;s in the way.&#8221;</span><br />
It&#8217;s a simplistic &amp; general definition but since NLP is so vast and encompassing I feel this definition is perfectly simple.<br />
<span id="more-541"></span>
<div style="clear:both;">&nbsp;</div>
<h2>Neuro, Linguistic &amp; Programming &#8211; Defined.</h2>
<p><strong>Neuro</strong>: in this context means &#8220;Brain&#8221; but definitions say, &#8220;nerve, nerves, or the nervous system.&#8221;<br />
<strong>Linguistic</strong>: means &#8220;of or relating to language or linguistics.&#8221;  In this context linguistic more specifically means &#8220;any form of communication.&#8221;<br />
<strong>Programming</strong>: means &#8220;the designing, scheduling, or planning of a program&#8221; or  &#8220;creating a sequence of instructions.&#8221;</p>
<h3>The Oxford English Dictionary says:</h3>
<p>&#8220;neurolinguistic programming n. a model of interpersonal communication  chiefly concerned with the relationship between successful patterns of  behaviour and the subjective experiences (esp. patterns of thought)  underlying them; a system of alternative therapy based on this which  seeks to educate people in self-awareness and effective communication,  and to change their patterns of mental and emotional behaviour.&#8221; (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuro-linguistic_programming#cite_note-0">i</a>)</p>
<h3>So In Conclusion, NLP Is&#8230;</h3>
<p>&#8220;NLP is a communication to and from the brain of an individual which reveals &#8220;what is&#8221;.  Then a <a href="http://www.portlandhypnotherapy.org/hypnosis-professionals">trained NLP practitioner</a> can use any of more than 200+ different processes (programs) to evoke the desired result in that individual.&#8221;<br />
I&#8217;ve personally experienced numerous transformations due to NLP, both in others and in myself&#8230; and all by only using some form of communication.  Simply astonishing, in my opinion!</p>
