NLP is a method for understanding and shaping human experiences to communicate effectively and bring about personal development. It involves organising and changing thoughts, feelings, language, and behaviours to achieve desired outcomes—a way to use the language of the mind for consistent goal achievement.
Richard Bandler & John Grinder sought to understand and model the communication and behavioural patterns of successful therapists, including Fritz Perls and Virginia Satir. Bandler and Grinder developed NLP as a methodology for capturing and replicating the strategies employed by these experts. The name "Neuro-Linguistic Programming" reflects its focus on the interplay between neurological processes, language, and behavioural patterns in shaping human experiences.
NLP has applications in promoting health and well-being by addressing the mind-body connection. It is used to enhance communication between healthcare professionals and patients, fostering understanding and compliance. This approach centres on enabling individuals to initiate positive transformations in their mental and emotional well-being, thereby making significant contributions to overall health enhancement.

Abstract
Trauma has been one of the oldest and most difficult sufferings of humans. Even though the source of trauma has passed, there are long-lasting effects that generations have to deal with. In this research, we explore and validate a treatment method for the trauma that involves the usage of dissociation and distortion in the form of the much-studied V/AKD technique.
