Course Elements
What is NLP?
NLP, or Neuro-Linguistic Programming, is the name for the set of mind-tools originally developed by Richard Bandler and John Grinder roughly 40 years ago. It has morphed into an extraordinary collection of mind tools that make people function better at whatever they do. NLP in Therapy and Life Coaching
In a therapeutic context, NLP is used as an extraordinary effective means to change the way people deal with problems and find solutions and lift them from states of helplessness to empowerment NLP is used to break phobias, change people’s perceptions, increase confidence, reducing and eliminate anxiety, end procrastination and enhance motivation as well as countless other well-being related personal change areas. NLP in Business
Pretty much any sales training, leadership training and business/sports coaching that is presented today will have taken significant elements from NLP. It is used in sales environments and major businesses to give teams the edge and help them move through the cycles of business including negative down turns effectively. NLP in Sports
Most top athletes either knowingly or otherwise will be using elements of NLP to enhance their mental states and performance. If you have ever seen an Olympic athlete standing at the blocks before a race, getting themselves intensely calm, and then squeezing their wrist with the other hand? If you have, you now know they were using NLP With NLP You Learn the Habits of Success.
The ‘habits of success’ (i.e. the thought processes, beliefs, values and behaviours that are automatically used by successful people) can be studied and ‘installed’ using NLP. They can then be implemented to help yourself and others develop and improve in any area of life. NLP was originally created through the study of some of the world’s greatest therapists and communicators, as well as sports people, business greats and the geniuses of our time. The Mind Institute training programs are internationally respected for their thoroughness and usability as well as the informal yet deeply structured and enjoyable environment in which students learn. We use NLP to teach NLP, which means we don’t just talk about what NLP is supposedly able to do, we work with you every day so that you experience it in your own life. This way you won’t just learn new things – you’ll experience change, and those changes will last a lifetime. NLP has become so respected that prominent magazines say this: Modern Psychology Magazine Says:
“Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) may be the most powerful vehicle for change in existence” Time Magazine says:
“Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) has untapped potential for treating individual problems…it has metamorphosed into an all-purpose self-improvement program and technology.” Psychology Today says:
“Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) cannot be dismissed as just another hustle. Its theoretical underpinnings represent an ambitious attempt to codify and synthesize the insights of linguistics, body language and the study of communication systems.” Training and Development Journal says:
“Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) has untapped potential for treating individual problems…it has metamorphosed into an all-purpose self-improvement program and technology.” The MindTrainer courses cover full practitioner level training and master practitioner training as well as the possibility of obtaining trainers training certification. Hypnosis and Clinical Hypnotherapy
Hypnosis is used to assist in over 200 clinical and medical conditions; hypnosis is one of the most researched and proven areas in psychology. Powerful beyond measure. Learning modern hypnosis is one of the most important things you can do, you will understand the mind at profound levels and be able to assist yourself and others to do the seemingly impossible The Wall Street Journal recently predicted that hypnotherapy will be one of the top career choices for the new millennium. The Mind Institute enables you to become a part of this expanding field, helping others — and yourself — as you build an ethical, caring, stable and successful professional career if you choose or just take away the incredible insights into human change and behavior if that is what you want. There is a lot of information around regarding hypnosis from books and web to weekend workshops and new age ideas- the vast majority of it is pure nonsense. However, Hypnosis used effectively is with out a doubt one of the most effective transformational methods available. It stands alone as a modality in itself and its power has been used since the beginnings of civilization. There is certainly a resurgence in modern times and science is now adding weight to what we as hypnotherapists have always known. It works, and it works where most other approaches fail. Hypnosis is powerful!
You can help people in an extraordinary range of presenting challenges such as: Allergies, Depression, Sleep disorders, Anxiety & stress management, Sports & Athletic Performance, Obesity & weight control, Asthma, Smoking cessation, High blood pressure, Bed-wetting, Reynaud’s disease, Sexual dysfunction’s, Concentration, Test anxiety, Learning disorders, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Colitis, Crohn’s Disease Dermatological Disorders (Eczema, Herpes, Neurodermatitis, Pruritus (itching), Psoriasis (Warts), Pain (back pain, cancer pain, dental anesthesia, headaches and migraines, arthritis or rheumatism), Breast growth, Clinical Depression, Burns, Childbirth Surgery/Anesthesiology, Victims of abuse (incest, rape, physical abuse, cult abuse), Post Traumatic Stress New areas for it’s successful use are opening up all the time, recent examples are assistance in IVF treatment, immune system support, IBS, coaching and money management just to name a few. The Mind Institute’s Modern Hypnosis Approach
The Mind Institute covers all approaches to Hypnosis. We teach the best of both the old and the new. As such we teach all aspects of hypnosis, from Stage Hypnosis & Rapid Inductions to Elman and Ericksonian. We show you how to elicit all the true hypnotic phenomena including (but not limited to) pain control, catalepsy, regression, amnesia, time distortion, hallucination and dissociation. We leave no stone unturned. The Mind Institute quite simply offers the most comprehensive hypnosis training available in Australia. Hypnosis is a natural human state, a true gift from life itself. We move in and out of states of hypnosis everyday. The skilled practitioner can utilise these states for immense benefit in both themselves and others. Hypnosis is an art and a science. It has methods and procedures that can be replicated yet it also takes an empathic and ‘conscious’ individual to make it ‘magical’. The lame claims and cheap sales pitches found on the web and in many training brochures have no place in the world of a genuine hypnotist / hypnotherapist. Instead a well-rounded, honest, artistic and skilled approach full of integrity and capability will bring you great satisfaction both personally and professionally. A survey of psychotherapy literature by Alfred A. Barrios, PhD. revealed the following recovery rates:
Coaching

As a life coach we create a place of safety to help our clients find and attain what they really want in their lives.

Just this one aspect of the course will allow you to engage in a new steady income stream and add big dollars to your bottom line on an ongoing basis. You will understand the life coaching blue print and be able to life coach for personal, professional and financial gain.
This empowering, uplifting and information packed aspect of the Diploma will turn you into a ‘turn around’ expert for your clients. Everyone wants to have a better life, more money and better relationships. Everyone wants to feel that they have someone in their corner who supports them 100% through the challenges and hurdles in life and… Everyone wants someone in their life who has the tools to make it happen, and that can be you with this course. Meridian Based Techniques
The Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and Thought Field Therapy are incredibly effective rapid change techniques that use the acupuncture system (the meridians) to remove negative feelings, thoughts and responses. There are countless variations of these two core approaches. Meridian based techniques are often called acupuncture for the mind, they require no needles, just simple tapping of specific acupuncture points while your client is thinking about their problem. Mind blowing results are often achieved in just a few short minutes. You cannot be without a solid foundation in these approaches to personal change. The Diploma course introduces you primarily to EFT along side Alistair Horscroft’s personal observations from having used these techniques in front of millions over the last decade. EFT is everywhere. You’ll find it in books, blogs, websites, newsletters and workshops worldwide. Its results for emotional, physical and performance issues are extraordinary. No drugs or surgeries are involved, it often works where nothing else will and it’s all based on some Timeless EFT Principles that anyone can learn. You will be able to use these powerful methods to help yourself and others and you will learn how to combine them with Hypnosis, NLP and Coaching. Can you afford NOT to learn NLP, Hypnosis and Coaching from the man who is acclaimed by practitioners, therapists, trainers, doctors, psychologists who have all had hundreds of hours of training with other NLP & Hypnosis schools BEFORE they attended Alistair’s course only to be blown away with the game changing content, delivery, insights and knowledge that was imparted to them. |
Testimonials
“Wow! How to go from Learning, Knowing & Doing to BEING? Do this training. I had learned, I had trained…(yes, Tony Robbins and all the so called big name providers etc, etc) yet it was still not a part of me. Now? I am enjoying exactly who I want to be .. doing exactly what I want to do. Thanks to Alistair, each day I am aware of the new stuff I didn’t know that I now know, and now I know it! Thanks Alistair, you’re bloody honest, bloody funny – and totally REAL. No “secrets” , none of the usual nonsense, no guru worship, no ?better than energy?, no silly sales techniques, none of the crap…just exactly what you promise, the most comprehensive training of it?s kind. I don’t want you to train with Alistair any sooner than it takes for you to start to begin to realise how you cannot afford not to work with this man". www.jameslavers.com 
“I flew from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to attend Alistair’s training’s in Australia. I got far more than I could ever have expected and will do them again for the sheer joy of it, let alone the extraordinary course content. Having attended numerous other courses in Clinical Hypnotherapy I feel I am in a position to compare. Alistair’s course has given me a far deeper understanding and his real time/real life teaching style has allowed me to end the frustrating and to be honest, poor approaches I learned on the others courses. Instead I now have the confidence and ability to work naturally and spontaneously. This is the profound strength of Alistair’s courses. You finally get what you had always hoped for, world class training”. 
“I just want you to know how much I call upon everything you taught me in your course. As you know I had trained with numerous other NLP and Hypnosis providers but you Alistair delivered an entirely different level of training. Thank you so much”. 
“Generous, hilarious, intellectually rigorous, focused, ?black and white?, punchy, philosophical, compassionate and the most non ?guru-like? man you will meet. Your training was both a joy and a rare gift ? delivering far beyond expectation. Having worked with Hypnosis and NLP for 17 years myself, the goal was not so much about learning new strategies ? though I most certainly did! I got a much more profound understanding as to what drives the whole thing. Much of this happened just in observing Alistair?s subtle mastery of process. He draws on a staggering range of ?in-depth? ? working knowledge. As an extraordinary teacher, he makes this knowledge so easily and enjoyably accessible. So many things just came into focus for me. This has had a strong and positive impact, both on myself and, inevitably, on the quality of my work. It really is a case of finally getting the nut and not just the shell ? what a relief!" 
“I wanted to learn and understand hypnotherapy and NLP on a theoretical and practical level. It has more than fulfilled those expectations. The tremendous impact it has made on my life is still taking shape in the most wonderful and unexpected ways on a professional and personal level. In addition to the knowledge acquired, the self awareness and healing it catalyzed has greatly improved my work towards healing and helping others. Alistair has a totally down to earth approach that has obviously been earned by his years of hands on experience. Other training brochures and web-sites claim a lot. Alistair actually delivers and then some. I highly recommend his course”. 
I have recently finished Alistair’s training course. It was taught by an exceptional professional, with an extraordinary amount of information put together in a manner that was easy to understand and flowed effortlessly. The course has given me a wonderful new career and on a personal level I feel in control of my future like never before. I’m much happier and much more content. www.hampsteadhypnoth “It sounds clichd but its actually true to say that not only was the course profoundly useful, but it is actually life changing and I continue to enjoy applying the awesome things that I learnt in those brilliant and entertaining 11 days in my daily life and in my work.” 
“I can honestly say that this course has been the best few thousand dollars I have ever spent. Thanks so much”. http://www.perthhypnosis |
