Submodalities and Rep Systems   Rep systems and sub-modalities are some of the ways that your mind uses to code information about a situation. The coding is often information about the state that you're in when you think a thought. A state is an internal position of bodymind -- like emotions or directions in thought.

Everybody has different codings, and one of the first things you'll do on an NLP course is to find out how you and your fellow students code information about happy events (amongst many others). The powerful step in using sub-modalities is to apply them to memories, or thoughts, with different associated feelings.

For instance, something that makes you feel sad can make you feel curious, or happy, or blissful, or satisfied, or anyone of a nearly infinite range of states. It can simply be a matter of changing the coding. Sometimes life can feel like you're a character in a bad movie, with the same familiar emotions running through you. NLP allows you to very quickly rewrite the script. Once you find that you have a script, and how it's written, it's hard to resist writing yourself in for more fun, excitement and pleasure in the future!
