Emotionology uses the science behind emotions to understand how thinking and emotions create your relationship to the world, your inner world with your outer world, and your health. I also teamed up with a Dermatologist in 1969 in FL for a project to help 10 clients he couldn’t fix with medication. This info and techniques was able to fix their issues. Over time, I ended up discovering a new philosophy that individuals ended up with once they had removed the negativity in their thinking that I published in my book Ideas and Concepts. The book “How to Improve your EQ “ is an overall short history of my life before these techniques, and short synopsis of the other books so people can know that they can harness the power of their emotional intelligence to make fast changes, move toward goals, and create the life they want. People can apply these tools and techniques to other things that they already do. I would think it would be useful in every field in some way even though it is not meant as therapy. These tools help in therapy, in schools helping teachers teach better, in law enforcement so they aren’t trigger happy, and many other helping fields as well as running a business so people can get along better.
Bandler was anti-psychology so he didn’t want these techniques being call therapy. People were certified as ‘practitioners‘ of NLP. Due to his fight with psychology the techniques were never taught to therapists unless they searched him out. Some of the things I discovered in my practitioner practice were some dangers in how this was used with the public. I thought that NLP later took a left turn with Richard Bandler into ‘how to control others” and he was hired by the government to DE-programm people in the service. I personally know how controlling a person he is and how this can be misused.
The NLP techniques are purposely not pier reviewed by the field of psychology as they are not intended to be owned by that entity. They are part of a new exciting adventure into the unknown where people can control their own minds and have the personal skills to lead ahead of the people who can’t think for themselves. There are several things to know that are very important – these techniques can be used for good or bad purposes. If taught without a person using them first on their own thinking, that person becomes a manipulator and control artist of others. Imagine a person who is a criminal that is only kept in check by their fear of being caught but eliminates just that fear in their mine without developing their integrity. What would happen? I have found that it is first important to find a way to work with people on people’s greed before taking away any normal inhibitions that keep this in check. If a person uses these techniques on their own thinking they develop their skill level and cannot be controlled by others.
However, the philosophy that I discovered (as a result of using these techniques with people for years for good to improve their lives) and research that I have found in other fields has given me new exciting information in the form of the 4 models which I created and published which does not need pier review and I use in conjunction with the NLP techniques. That prevents misuse of this information.
I taught all this information (open to all people) in a year long training that meets one weekend a month where they learn about 10 techniques each weekend and then practice them with others through the month. By the end of the year they have completely remade their own lives as well as better helping others, improving their health, as well as their practice if they add this to what they do. I also do group 1 day workshops/seminars for any business to learn about 5-6 of the techniques that is helpful to help business in working together better.
In working with people with NLP it is very necessary to include the philosophy. If you remover fear and anxiety before you remove an addiction, the person will want to keep their addiction. I found with Manic-Depressive people, if you remove depression they are really addicted to the high of being Manic. You must manage the Manic side first. The same goes for Greed. Remove greed before you give them other skills because
In 2005 I took a long personal break from teaching this but am newly committed to re-starting these in person trainings beginning coming January 2023
I am old now so I am looking for new groups that will find individuals to carry my work forward. I usually charged about 250 a weekend per individual in the yearly groups if they commit to the whole year. People who set up the groups do not pay as it is their group. I am looking for new places to do this come January to start new yearly groups one weekend a month. It is 16 hrs of intensive training each weekend and can be with any number of people. Groups of 15- 10000 are possible.
If you know of any office or entity that would like a one day workshop (free in Denver since I live here) if I flew there (price of a plane ticket).
