John Grinder talks about the Conscious and Unconscious
Dr John Grinder's remark some years ago that societies could be judged on the quality of their conversations between the conscious and unconscious affected me profoundly, and led in part to the founding of this site.
The relationship of the underlying unconscious processes that keep us alive and often drive our behaviours and how we think about ourselves, consciously, has been the heart of my work over the past 10 years.
One one level it's kept me very interested in the science of who we are, on another level it's led me to meditation, and an openness to the ideas of psychotherapy.
And in the almost 20 years since I first trained in NLP I've kept in frequent touch with my trainers, Chris and Jules Collingwood of Inspiritive.
And I still find John Grinder baffling when he speaks on video. I've videoed him myself, and despite decades of experience as a broadcast journalist find it difficult to track or explain what he's saying. Most of his fans put it down to him communicating directly with the unconscious. That may be so - Dr Grinder is a master hypnotist, after all.
Peter Salisbury recently got him talking about the unconscious and conscious on video too. Peter's an NLP trainer, too, at http://www.facebook.com/l/95c45;www.nlpcoachingsuccess.co.uk/
