DESCRIPTION:Language is one of the greatest abilities mastered by the huma
 n brain. If brain “can speak and understand language”\, prior to that\
 , the “molecule of life”\, our \nDNA\, must “know language”\nRecen
 tly\, the Russian linguists discovered that the genetic code follows the s
 ame rules as all our human languages. By looking at the rules of:\n 1.Synt
 ax\, the way in which words are arranged to form sentences and phrases\; \
 n 2.Semantics\, the meaning of language \;\n 3.The basic rules of grammar.
 \nand comparing with the way the molecule of life works \, they found out 
 that the alkalines of our DNA follow a regular grammar and have rules like
  our languages. Therefore\, human languages did not appear accidentally\, 
 they are a reflection of our DNA.\nThe benefit is tremendous: Human beings
  can reprogram their DNA by using language. \nNow\, the questions still su
 bsisting are :\n 1=How do we change the chemistry of our brain by using la
 nguage? \n 2=How do we reprogram our DNA?\nThe key is to pay attention to 
 the words\, as Dr. Richard Bandler\, the co-founder of NLP\, said. Sadness
  appears when by purpose or by mistake people minimize the importance of t
 he words\, the syntax and semantics of the language as all of these produc
 e feelings. And feelings are everything. \nFrom here to there\, back to bu
 siness coaching industry\, the most common models of coaching like T-GROW\
 , FUEL\, STEPPPA OR SUCCESS\, should always begin by addressing feelings: 
 ” How do you know you have a problem?” \nA model gives to a coach a fr
 amework or a structure\, it never gives the “how to coach”. The struct
 ure might address more logic or emotion\, but no matter if we talk about I
 Q\, EQ\, AQ\, CQ or SQ\, we always aim feelings. Words and thoughts produc
 e and change feelings\, and feelings change brain's chemistry\,that's a ve
 ry simple chain\, according to Dr. Bandler. And I agree him!\nAs a coach\,
  you must poses the capacity of using words to change clients' lives for t
 he best. This is the reason they come to you: they trust your magic powers
  of using language. They might feel frustrated\, \ncollapsed\, depressed\,
  trapped\, defeated\, overwhelmed. They come to you to get in turn happine
 ss\, freedom\, success\, peace and confidence and you might wonder what is
  the magic spell to use\, when all you have are words.\n \nWords as swords
  can cut and heal\, so they require wisdom\, clarity and specificity when 
 using them. To get clarity and specificity so as to aim the goal\, one of 
 the best NLP tools to use is Meta Model. As the term says “meta” meani
 ng “behind” or “above” something\, by using this model\, a coach i
 s able to take \nthe client in to the journey of recovering the informatio
 n gathered in the deep structure of his mind. \nNow\, think about the lang
 uage like being the symbolic representation of our own experience. Everyth
 ing we speak out\, in a loud voice\, is in fact the representation or a th
 e surface structure of a much complex\, untainted experience called deep s
 tructure . \nWhen people build up their map about the world\, they use mai
 nly three processes: generalization\,deletion and distortion\, and in orde
 r to see the territory\, Meta Model retrieves the deep structure from \nth
 e surface structure by clarifying the language and restructures the genera
 lizations\, deletions and \ndistortions.\nThis is the greatest challenge o
 f a coach: metaphorically speaking\, to clear the clients' skies not by br
 inging his own paint\, but\, by rearranging their blue clouds and their ye
 llow Sun like in a chess game.
