NLP Practitioner with Neuroscience - with Ian McDermott

Module 3: Being at our Most Resourceful - The importance of being in the right state shows up every single day of our lives.

31st October - 1st November 2025

The NLP Practitioner Programme with Neuroscience will equip you to become an effective NLP Practitioner, guiding and inspiring others to make real and lasting life changes.

By combining the power of NLP with the rigour of neuroscience, our internationally recognised instructors explain exactly what works, why it works and how to apply it in all areas of life.

 

What makes this NLP Practitioner course unique?

Our NLP Practitioner certification programme is unique in that it combines insights from the world of NLP with the amazing discoveries that neuroscience is continuing to reveal about our brains’ physical development and the various processes that occur within it. This presents powerful, compelling and practical content for both experienced practitioners looking to deepen their understanding and for those just starting their journey.

The NLP Practitioner Programme with Neuroscience is a 12-day NLP Practitioner course comprising six 2-day modules over 5 months. This structure allows you to take your learnings and use them in real world situations between each module. This applied learning approach helps you to assimilate the material and make huge strides as the programme progresses.

The programme is led by Ian McDermott, the practitioner and author who first brought NLP and Coaching together and then did the same for NLP and Neuroscience. Along with fellow course leader Professor Patricia Riddell, Ian has been at the forefront of applying pioneering work in the neurosciences to NLP – and bringing its practical benefits to people from all walks of life. Over the last 35 years, Ian has trained thousands of NLP Practitioners.

Module: NLP Practitioner with Neuroscience - with Ian McDermott

How you can be at your best and overcome challenges

The importance of being in the right state shows up every single day of our lives – whether we see it or not. We all know that some days we’re more able to rise to the challenge of what comes our way and we’re more on top of things than others. So much of this is down to our internal state. The state you and your team are in can have a massive impact on what you can achieve, on your self-esteem and even on what you believe is possible. This holds true for individuals, teams, organisations and families. Being able to be at your best and deal with what can get in the way is a learnable skill. It’s time to master it.

Some of the key content points from this module include:

  • The Power of Anchoring
  • Achieving optimal performance
  • Techniques for Performance Enhancement and Personal Well-being
  • Building Resourcefulness and Resilience
  • Strategic planning with the Sequenced States Model
  • The Power of Sub-modalities
  • The Neuroscience of Excellence
