“Words create our world and our perception!”, says Evan Bortnick. “We can design our lives ourselves. Our language helps us with that. With the help of NLP, we learn to communicate optimally with others and with ourselves.”

Humans live in a very strong impulse world (cerebellum), in an emotional instinct world (limbic system), and an idea world (neocortex). Evan Bortnick deals with the question of how all three worlds can be balanced and united. In his NLP Practitioner and NLP Master training, he teaches NLP techniques whose application can help establish an ideal balance. In this podcast episode, Evan Bortnick also talks about the different types of decisions, such as head, heart, and gut decisions.
