Q. What is Neuro Hypnotic Repatterning and how would you describe it?
Richard
Using the Hypnotic process to restructure people at the level of cortical pathways. Most of the problems and
things that people do and bad feelings that they have, work automatically but they weren’t there when they
were a baby. These are learned behaviors and when you hypnotically repattern someone what you are
basically doing is teaching them not to get to what they don’t want to get. Archival memory systems always
have to have up-datable memory where you put new information in front of old information. So if you teach
somebody a new way to respond it makes it so that it is easier because they never get to the bad system.
Everything human beings learnt will always be there but sometimes what you need to do is make a left turn on
the cortical pathways and use a new learning. People should always be relearning things anyway. The older
we get the more millions and millions of neural cortical pathways we establish and there are many things that
happen automatically, a handshake, kisses, all kinds of stuff but it also includes people getting angry when its
inappropriate or being afraid of things that are not really scary.
