Arichive : Stuart Wilde – Ego and Reality

Quiet Earth has just put up Ego and Reality on MP3. It’s a very funny lecture from the early days. Of course I am not in agreement with all he says here but this is my little summary which I put up on the website:

“With all the goings on in the world of late this is quite a timely release. We all need reminders and listening to Stuart Wilde “live” is always so much fun. Admittedly his lectures can be a tad hyperbolic but I can forgive him for that small transgression – simply because they are always inspiring and “Wildley” funny with plenty of energy to get his points across.

And along with of all the showmanship there is a heart felt philosophy that resonates with people all over the globe. Ego and Reality is one of his funniest lectures”.

What is Hypnosis & NLP ?

Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is a pseudoscientific approach to communication, personal development and psychotherapy, that first appeared in Richard Bandler and John Grinder’s 1975 book The Structure of Magic I. NLP claims that there is a connection between neurological processes (neuro-), language (linguistic) and acquired behavioral patterns (programming), and that these can be changed to achieve specific goals in life.  According to Bandler and Grinder, NLP can treat problems such as phobias, depression, tic disorders, psychosomatic illnesses, near-sightedness, allergy, the common cold, and learning disorders, often in a single session. They also claim that NLP can “model” the skills of exceptional people, allowing anyone to acquire them.

NLP has been adopted by some hypnotherapists, as well as by companies that run seminars marketed as “leadership training” to businesses and government agencies.

There is no scientific evidence supporting the claims made by NLP advocates, and it has been called as a pseudoscience. Scientific reviews have shown that NLP is based on outdated metaphors of for the brain’s inner workings, that are inconsistent with current neurological theory and contain numerous factual errors. Reviews also found that research that favored NLP contained significant methodological flaws, and that there were three times as many studies of a much higher quality that failed to reproduce the “extraordinary claims” made by Bandler, Grinder, and other NLP practitioners.
