Imagine being able to control and regulate your emotions so that life is more balanced or being able to access resourceful emotional states when you need them. NLP is one of many ways that you can use to manage your emotional state. There are one technique in NLP that called NLP Anchoring. Anchors are naturally occurring associations between an external stimulus and a behavioral or emotional response. They occur because the human mind constantly seeks to make sense of the environment by looking for patterns and associations between things. NLP deliberately makes use of anchors in order to empower people to have control over their emotional states. There are specific NLP techniques in which a stimulus is used to trigger and link an emotional state. The stimulus is usually external and may be a sound or touch. Through these techniques it is possible to for an individual to build up a resource of positive emotional states, which they can access in any situation in which they need them. It is also possible to completely collapse negative anchors so that external stimuli that cause you negative emotional states will no longer be a problem. If you feel learning to use anchors would benefit you, it would be advisable to see an NLP practitioner. Anchoring is something that you can learn to self-administer and is a life-long skill that will get you better results. The process involves remembering specific times in the past when you have experienced the emotional resource you wish to anchor. What great is that you can borrow positive emotional resources that occur in response to certain situations in your life and use them in other situations where wish you had them! So, the motivation that you felt in planning a particular holiday can be borrowed and used as the motivation you need in order to get you to the gym!
