Submodalities are like mind codes. The way it is explained is that it is a “sub” element of a modality, comprising visual, auditory and kinesthetic modalities of perception.

What do I use submodalities for?
Generally, submodalities are used to change the way we represent or perceive information in the mind. While this can be quite heavy to understand, think of it as a new software that you want to install into a computer.
Your mind carries a “template” of thought. This “template” is filled with your experiences based on certain codes in your mental template. This template of codes can be found in this submodality checklist.

I’ll bet you encounter depression once in a while. Or, you might actually be someone who has been battling depression for some time. Maybe you have someone you’d like to help.

Whatever the case, the perspective I’d put on this is that depression is normal. Yes, can be debilitating, but it’s normal. Millions of people go through it. Some people get out of it faster than others.
In recent days, especially after the announcement of major job losses in America, I’ve seen a surge in people seeking depression treatment or depression help. Somehow, many people are in a bad spot and just don’t know how to go about helping themselves.

According to NLP theory, we have four major representational systems – visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and digital. A visual representational system means you prefer seeing over hearing or touching. Auditory, of course means discussing, talking or sounding things out. Kinesthetic relates to doing, moving and the like. and digital refers to sequential processes (e.g. a flowchart or standard operating procedures).
Identify your own preferences when you think of your favorite activities, the thoughts in your head, and basically come to awareness of how you get a sense of the world around you.

Public speaking is one of the things I do most. Every day, I have to speak on a stage somewhere in the world. Well, most days. And even if I’m not on stage, I have to deliver some presentation on a teleseminar.
Some people are afraid of public speaking only because they don’t know what they want to get from it. Personally, public speaking is for me a way of stress release, not a stress in itself. Very often, I pour out my thoughts, ideas and suggestions to people in my audience. They learn what to do and what NOT to do. It’s therapeutic for both parties, I think.

In identifying emotional states, we sometimes need to have control over the way we code our minds. Coding is done at a very unconscious level and I believe strongly that if you want to increase our mental awareness of this, you will need to learn NLP in a practical setting.
Here are some submodality differences:
You’ll probably notice that there are some submodality codes that are different, and based on the profile, we can simply make the depressed image Bright, and Associated. Notice the difference in the feeling you get simply by doing this.

This one will be short – I just wanted you to explore the differences in your mental image placement.

For instance, you might want to think about something you like to do and something you dislike to do, and put them side by side in your mind. What did your mind prefer to do? Did it put your mental image of like on the left? If so, think of something you need to do and put it in the place where you like to do.
Notice what happens.

One of the things about being effective in belief change is the way you interject and weaken undesired mental images and strengthen desired images in people’s minds.
For instance, someone may have a very firm belief (maybe even paranoia) that someone is plotting against them in the office (lol — well who isn’t). In this case, you can basically do a number of things to weaken those mental images.
One way is to use a simple pattern interrupt. If you are adept enough, you can weave this in smoothly without causing a serious break in rapport. Another way that is common is to offer counter examples within your conversation itself. The targeted undesired belief can then be diminished greatly.

It comes a point of time when you ask yourself – who am I? What am I made of? Am I really a ____ person? It’s so common for an individual to feel that failure is a bad thing because we have gotten used to the fact that failing is bad.
In reality, failure is socially unacceptable. In organizations, people are usually not allowed to fail. There’s a double standard from top executives when they say “I can tolerate failure — as long as it doesn’t cost me anything”.
