Hi,

my name is Betty Cosgrave and I would like to thank you for

considering my NLP Licensed Practitioner training in 2015.

Over the years, its become apparent to me, that people make

changes in their life circumstances, for a vast array of reasons

but more often than not, its when theyre feeling stuck,

whether its in a job, or a relationship, or even with an

unwanted behaviour or habit. The underlying difficulties

however, are usually the same a lack of belief in their own

capacity to make change happen, a perceived lack of choice, or

an inability to identify where they really want to go with their

life.

The good news is, that there is a way forward and you can

discover where you really want to go in life. The choices youve

made so far were based on what you thought you could do and

if they didnt always work out the way you hoped, well that

doesnt mean anything, except that maybe if you had greater

choice, then success could have been yours.

Whether you decide to take this training, as a new career path,

or simply for self-development and personal growth, it will quite

simply be the best investment youve ever made in yourself.

of exerting quality control over those training programs and

services claiming to represent the model of Neuro-Linguistic

Programming (NLP).

The seal below indicates Society Certification and is usually

advertised by Society of NLP - Richard Bandler approved

institutes and centers. We highly recommend that you exercise

caution as you apply the techniques and skills of NLP. We also urge

you to attend only those seminars, workshops and training

programs that have been officially designed and certified by The

Society of Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Any training programs

that have been approved and endorsed by The Society of Neuro-

We cant solve any

~ Albert Einstein

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is defined as the study of

the structure of subjective experience and what can be calculated

from that. It is predicated upon the belief that all behaviour has

structure. People such as Virginia Satir, Milton Erickson and Fritz

Perls had amazing results with their clients and they were some of

the people whos linguistic and behavioural patterns Richard

Bandler built formal models of. He then applied these models to his

work.

Because these models are formal, they also allow for prediction and

calculation. Since the models that constitute NLP describe how

the human brain functions, they are used in order to teach them.

NLP is not a diagnostic tool. It can only be applied and can

therefore only be taught experientially.

Well trained Neuro-Linguistic Programmers will always teach by

installation, not by teaching technique after technique. Techniques

outdate themselves too quickly to base the field of NLP on a set

of techniques. It is based upon the attitude, the models and the

skills which allow for constant generation of new techniques which

are more effective and work faster.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming was specifically created in order

to allow us to do magic by creating new ways of understanding how

verbal and non-verbal communication affect the human brain. As

such it presents us all with the opportunity to not only

communicate better with others, but also learn how to gain more

control over what we considered to be automatic functions of our

own neurology.

N L P I t s a k i n d o f m a g i c

The Licensed NLP Practitioner is a comprehensive trainingprogramme, offering an internationally recognized Society ofNLP certificate and the opportunity to become involved in acareer, which is both financially rewarding and personallyfulfilling. Upon completion, you will have the skill-set, confidenceand ability to work with clients.

Unlike most other NLP trainings, which are held over sevenconsecutive days, my training takes place over four weekends. Ibelieve this to be far more beneficial to the student, as it allowsfor the inevitable personal growth which occurs as a result of theinflux of new ideas and concepts.

Teachers, counsellors and therapists will attain the ability to helpstudents, or clients transform their thinking, develop strategiesfor success and dissolve emotional negativity.

Communication There are many benefits for those skilled in theuse of NLP, not least of which is the capacity for excellence incommunication. People start to value your opinions and advice alot more, because they get the feeling that you understand them,you hear what theyre saying. or you see things the same waythey do. This is possible, once you understand the magic ofRepresentational Systems.

Confidence Understanding exactly what makes you tick, deliversa wonderful feeling confidence and belief in your own abilities.You can banish forever , any discomfort you may have felt whenaddressing groups of people, such as delivering presentations, orother events that require speech making etc.

Many people take this training purely for personal reasons, as itcontains many powerful techniques, which can lead to radicalindividual change.

NLP for Personal Development

If youve never considered NLP as a pathway to Personal

Development, then I can safely say that its time for you to take a

look at what it has to offer.

After more than a decade teaching these amazing techniques, I

can say without doubt, that they will provide you with the

transformational tools needed to bring about lasting change in

your life.

The great news is, that whether you want to get rid of limiting

beliefs, become more motivated, or simply just feel happier in

yourself more of the time, then NLP is exactly what you need.

With NLP you can sort through mental and emotional processes,

to improve clarity and help with decision making. It offers

fantastic techniques to allow you to communicate with people in

a language that resonates with them... which in turn allows you to

create better rapport and achieve the outcomes that you want! It

also helps you to understand what people really mean when they

communicate with you, hence allowing you to become more

effective in relationships.

You can improve relationships and communication with family,

friends and colleagues. You can learn to identify clearly, your own

emotional baggage and separate it from that of others, allowing

you, to be who you really are, and speak your own truth, in a way

that is more easily accepted by others.

Its not who you

are that holds you

back ..

Its who you think

youre not!

Life begins

at the end

of your

comfort zone

T h e W o n d e r o f N L P

NLP was born out of the study and modelling of the highlyeffective therapists like Milton Erickson, Virginia Satir and FritzPerls. Its an excellent add-in or plug-in system that complimentsjust about any conventional, or alternative therapeutic discipline.It is often said that there is nothing new in NLP and there is truthto that with the exception that it is about process rather thancontent.

The NLP Practitioner and Master Practitioner courses will providea range of approaches for assisting your clients in making quiteprofound changes in their lives and in their emotionalperceptions.

In life, lots of people

know what to do,

but few people

actually do what they

know. Knowing is not

enough! You must

take action."

Anthony Robbins

the most powerful

tool for change known

to mankind.....

9(C) IPPS LTD 2015

NLP is a model of what works well in individual performance.

Its based on the principle that if one person can do something,

then given similar physical characteristics, anyone else can learn to do

the same thing, by modelling and integrating into their own repertoire,

the skills and attitudes of the successful person.

While this may or may not be true, it does lead to some quite remarkable

improvements in personal performance

10

W h a t i s N L P ?Once a response

becomes a habit,

you stop learning.

Theoretically,

you could act

differently, but in

practice you do not.

Habits are extremely

useful, because they

streamline the parts of

our lives we do not

want to think about

...But there is an art to

deciding what parts of

your life you want to

turn over to habit, and

what parts of your life

you want to continue

to learn from and have

some choice about.

(C) IPPS LTD 2015

NLP is an ever-expanding series of processes which have been

designed as a means of increasing the number of choices

available to us, when dealing with any set of circumstances,

thrown up by life. It allows us to have greater flexibility of

thought and action, by providing us with a clear understanding

of the mental and cognitive processes behind our own and

others behaviour. It is an invaluable tool for the creation of

powerful, empowering states and beliefs.

Our understanding of what is real, is based on our experience in

life thus far, which can often be negative and debilitating. Most

people have negative programmes of some sort, or another

running in their brain and these programmes are the reasons

that we fail to achieve our full potential. NLP allows you to create

different, more effective strategies and to believe that anything

is possible.

NLP is not an intellectual process. On the contrary, it is very

behavioural and because of this, its not so much about what you

know, but rather about what you do with, what you know.

Becoming a good NLP practitioner does require a lot of practice

and you can do that in your everyday activities and interactions

with friends and colleagues.

11

W h a t i s N L P ?

Simply put,

it is not reality

that limits us

but rather, our

perception of reality.

The human brain an

almost infinite capacity

for creativity and

problem solving and

NLP is designed to

help us access more of

those neurological

pathways,

thus creating more

choice in our life.

NLP has techniques

and strategies to help

you become fully

congruent.

Congruence is when

you align your mind

and behaviour behind

positive thoughts,

so there is total

commitment to

achieving an outcome.

A good way to

experience congruence

is to utilise past

positive experiences

and incorporate these

into present behaviour.

The result is new and

empowered ways of

thinking.

Discover who You really are

A N Y a s p e c t o f y o u r s e l f

To understand how you can influence your external world, you

need to understand how your thinking affects your internal world.

13(C) IPPS LTD 2015

The ability to change the process by which we experience reality

is often more valuable than changing the content of our

experience of reality.

We create influence by creating choice.

The meaning of a communication is the response we get.

We do things in a specific manner nothing is random.

The resources an individual needs to effect change, are already

within them.

The map is not the territory.

P r e s u p p o s i t i o n s o f N L P

The presuppositions are the central principles of NLP; they are its

guiding philosophy, its beliefs. These principles are not claimed to be

true or universal. You do not have to believe they are true. They are

called presuppositions because you pre-suppose them to be true and

then act as if they were.You then discover what happens.

If you like the results then continue to act as if they are true. They

form a set of ethical principles for life.

14

Words are anchors for

sense experience, but

the experience is not

the reality, and the

word is not the

experience.

Language is thus, two

removes from reality.

To argue about the

real meaning of a word

is rather like arguing

that one menu tastes

better than another

because

you prefer the food

that is printed on it...

(C) IPPS LTD 2015

The positive of an individual is held constant, while the

value of the internal and/or external behaviour is

questioned.

Feedback as opposed to Failure: All results present us

with an opportunity to learn. [If it wasnt the desired

result, then try something different].

We process all information through our senses.

The unconscious mind balances the conscious; it is not

malicious and contains all the resources we need to live in

balance.

Modeling successful performance leads to excellence. If

one person can do something it is possible to model it

and teach it to others.

Action is the key to understanding.

People always make the best choice for them.

P r e s u p p o s i t i o n s o f N L P

15

We all have beliefs

and expectations

from our personal

experience; it is

impossible to live

without them.

Since we have to

make some

assumptions, they

might as well be

ones that allow us

freedom, choice and

fun in the world,

rather than ones that

limit us.

You usually get what

you expect to get.

Betty, these past months has been an eye-opening, heart-

opening and mind-expanding experience. My first tentative

steps at putting my new skills into practice have been so

revealing and exciting - it is thrilling and oh so rewarding to see

how well this stuff works! Thank you for introducing me to a

whole new way of life.

Michael Mc Entee

"This course has proved to be a monumental life changing

experience. This personal metamorphosis of self discovery

began to take effect as early as the first month. It has not only

allowed me the good fortune to delve into who I am and the

values I truly represent, but has also steered me on a pathway to

success in terms of setting up my own Life Coaching business.

This course really has it all.... and more. Betty not only covers all

the theory, the language and correct jargon that is used. She

really establishes a strong realistic foundation with a syllabus

that is flexible and fluid. More importantly, Betty translates all

the necessary information into a style of learning that is simply

approachable and understandable, and leaves you feeling

undaunted at all times. In fact, each month only promotes an

ever growing level of inspiration that invigorates the mind, body

and soul. Enlisting on this course will truly, without a doubt, be

the best decision you have ever made."

This course was a profound personal and professional journey for

me. An education in life for life. First of all, learning how best to live

yourself and then how to bring that awareness to others. It

will forever continue to be part of me, having integrated new

positive patterns into many areas of my life, producing

fantastic results including career progression and creation. Personal

and professional integrity are cornerstones to Betty's teaching. She

shares her incredible understanding of the human mind, body and

soul, uplifting everyone she teaches by facilitating them to

understand their own power, choices and limitless possibilities. A

life changing experience, full of wisdom, practical solutions and

results. Having an understanding of NLP enables you to facilitate

powerful positive changes in your clients.

Roseleen McNally

Betty, allow me to thank you for all that I have learnt during the

course. It has been a wonderful experience for me and while Im

sorry to see it come to an end, I know that its just the beginning of

a whole new adventure. You have given me some wonderful tools

to work with but most of all you showed me, that I had the courage

within to pursue that which I desire.

Kathleen Comerford

Only sign up to do this course if you want the mundane to turn into

magic, if you want to bring together the missing pieces of yourself

and then armed with new tools, make your life whole. Betty is the

Picasso of NLP.
