The NLP Communication Model

This is the basis of how information is passed and processed throughout the brain and body

We experience events throughout our lives. These experiences come in through our 5 senses, sight smell sounds touch and taste. We are constantly processing millions of bit of information a second. Our concious mind is unable to process all this information, therfore the unconcious mind takes this information and will generalise, distort or even delete the information and pass around 7 bits of information to the concious mind to be aware of.

The unconscious mind, in order to process this information will call on language, beliefs and past experiences to determine the relevance of the information. However, the unconscious mind not only processes the information to pass onto the concious mind. It uses this information to control the body depending on the information it receives The unconscious mind can change the physical state of the body and in turn change the behaviour of the body  that then changes the information coming in thought senses. Like wise the concious mind can change the physiology of the body. this in turn changes the state of the mind and feeds back this information to the unconscious mind as well. All this is happening in tiny fractions of a second.
