Thanks, Kristoff.
I totally agree with you regarding subconscious persuasion. I think that, though some of NLP is useful, most of it is deception. Anchoring and reframing are useful, but the Meta model, persuasion strategies--regardless of how "ethical" it is--is totally deceptive. Like brain washing.
We need to realize that, no matter how much we're trying to "help" someone,that we are dealing with a real human being who has feelings, and we cannot just press a button and get the response we want.
