1. NLP Meta Model
The NLP Meta Model is a set of language patterns that reconnects the deletions,
distortions and generalisations that occur in everyday language use with the experience
that generated them. Recovers them from the deep structure.
Uses:
 To gather information
 Clarify meaning
 Identify limits
 Give choices
 Bring someone out of trance
Deletion, distortion and generalisation
Deletion – something important is left out of the sentence. This limits thought and
action.
Distortion – Information is twisted in a way that limits choice and leads to unnecessary
problems and pain
Generalisations – we create categories or classes from single examples, by chunking
(organising information into groups or “chunks”).
