Internal Representations in NLP

Internal Representaitons (IR) in NLP are the pictures we form in our heads, our internal dialogue, our feelings and sounds that we hear inside our heads.

The NLPer calibrates to the Client's IRs using eye movements and predicates ("I see what you mean" etc) to determine the Client's IR at a given moment. Also by asking the Client what they see, hear and feel.

Within IR's there are qualities, called submodalities. Submodalities include things such as location, size etc.

Visual submodalities include:

• Size
• Location
• Color or black&white
• Framed or unframed
• Clear or unclear (foggy, hazy etc)
• Still or moving
• Associated or dissociated

Auditory Submodalities include:

• Location
• Volume
• Quality
• Persistence
