How we write here.

NLP is a field with a mixed evidence base. We write about what the research shows — which means writing honestly about what has and has not held up. We do not amplify claims that the evidence does not support, even if they are widely repeated in the NLP community.

Every article covering a technique, protocol, or clinical application is reviewed by a working NLP practitioner before publication. We look for accuracy in the description of the technique, appropriate scope of claims, and useful practical detail.

If any page was written or reviewed by someone with a commercial relationship to a training school, tool, or certification body, that is noted on the page. We do not accept paid placement.

NLP techniques and training standards do not change quickly, but research, regulatory context, and platform policies do. When a factual claim on a page becomes outdated, we correct it. If a page covers a topic that has materially changed, we note the date of the last substantial review.

Reviewed by Ashlesh Rao before publication. Re-reviewed when a school updates a core protocol or when a material error is reported.

Reviewed by Ashlesh Rao using peer-reviewed sources. Citations are included where we rely on specific studies. Research pages link to primary sources rather than summarizing without attribution.

Reviewed against current standards from SNLP, INLPTA, ABNLP, and ANLP. Training costs and hour requirements vary by school — we note when something is a range rather than a fixed figure.

Reviewed for accuracy by Ashlesh Rao. Claims about what coaches do, how sessions work, and what NLP can and cannot help with are cross-checked against lived practice.

All client testimonials are verified: the client must have had a booked session, the trainer is informed, and the content is reviewed for appropriateness before publication. We do not edit the substance of testimonials.
