Talk:Institute for Neurosemantics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] From Neuro-Semantics, which now is merged here

This is copied straight from the institute's website; it is not at all encyclopedic in tone, and confuses orthography (using 'Neuro-Semantics' rather than 'neurosemantics, capitalizing unusual words, &c). Needs a lot of reworking if any of it is to go into the article.

The semantic part refers to all of the meanings that we create as meaning-makers. How are your meanings? What are your meanings about yourself, others, life, your career, health, wealth, relationships, etc.? What meanings are you seeking to actualize in your life? What meanings have you actualized? How well do the meanings that you are living serve you? How ecological are they?

The neurology part (neuro-) refers to our body, physiology, and states. It is in and through our neurology that we feel, experience, and perform our meanings. What’s in your body? What semantic reactions do you experience in your emotions, states, and skills? Do they reflect your best ideas and meanings? Or is there a big gap between what you know and what you do? Neuro-Semantics is all about closing the Knowing-Doing gap.

The Semantic part of Neuro-Semantics refer to our inner games. This is where we create our inner matrix of meaning frames, layers upon layers of meanings that define our inner world.

The Neurology part of Neuro-Semantics refers to our outer games. This is where we actualize our inner meanings. As meaning-makers, we first make meaning and then we perform that meaning in what we do. All of this raises the key questions that we address in Neuro-Semantics.

  • If every behavior and response is the performance of a meaning, what meanings are you currently performing? What is the quality of that performance? Do you like what you are actualizing or would you like to transform what you are creating in you life?
  • If we are meaning-makers and if we call create a mental-emotional Matrix that we live in, what is the quality of meanings that you are now living? Are there any new or higher meanings that you would like to perform? How meaningful is your life? How much significance do you feel every day?
  • Do you know how to translate inspiring meanings into everyday actions to close the Knowing-Doing gap?

In all of this, What will you find in Neuro-Semantics?

  • You will find models regarding the nature of our minds, emotions, and bodies.
  • You will find patterns for developing greater competence, self-confidence, resourcefulness, and success in careers, health and fitness, and relationships.
  • You will find trainings, coaching, and consulting for living more mindfully and intentionally as you adapt to an ever-changing world.
  • You will discover the pathway for self-actualization for your best visions and values as you create the richest and most robust meanings for living a meaningful life.
