Official Definitions:

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is an approach used to program brain behavior using language and other types of communication methods.  The goal is to  "recode" the brain’s responses (refocus the thoughts), to create new and improved beliefs, feelings, and behaviors.

 

"NLP Modeling" is a style of teaching & learning that occurs by observing, retaining, and replicating patterns of language and behavior.

​

The goal is that these language patterns and behaviors become automatic, unconscious practices in your life.

​

Metaphysics is the branch of philosophy that deals with the first principles of things, including abstract concepts such as being, knowing, substance, cause, identity, time, and space.

 

What Dr. Simone does & how:

In simpler terms, when used by Dr. Simone, NLP involves using, demonstrating, and "modeling" language and behavior patterns to help kids, teens & families to

reprogram their beliefs about themselves. This allows them to improve their mindset, shift their attitude, boost their self-esteem and help them project greater confidence.

​

There are three main areas of focus that Dr. Simone uses to achieve consistent, positive results:

​

The Mind:

Using a more traditional NLP coaching approach, thoughts, visualizations, affirmations, lots of humor and hands-on-demonstrations are used to activate all 5 senses in the self-esteem building process. The emphasis is on transforming the abstract concept of self-esteem into a more tangible step-by-step process, which explains the WHY & HOW of self-esteem building.

​

The Spirit:

The metaphysical component of this work can be seen in Dr. Simone's work with the "True Self" also knowns as soul or spirit. As an Honorary Doctor of Divinity and a graduate with a Bachelors degree and practitioner certification in Metaphysical Science, Simone that the essence of 'self-esteem' is based on spiritual foundations of self.

 

This component is not based in religion, but based on Universal Laws and measurable energies in the body that acknowledge that something greater than us exists within "the self" to help us realize our full potential. Dr. Simone often utilizes quantum physical studies to support & enhance this spiritual component. These inspirational cards (here). and journals (here) are often encouraged to maximize spiritual growth.

​

The Body:

Dr. Simone's most unique technique recognizes the psycho-physical relationship by incorporating the use of the body in self-esteem building.  Calling on her experience as a fashion model, Dr. Simone incorporates tools from "Runway Modeling" blended with "NLP Modeling" and other holistic coaching practices to add a fun, powerful twist to her self-esteem coaching style, using the body, posture, breathing, tapping and more - as seen (here) in her NLP: Modeling Confidence Class.
