What NLP Eye Movement Indicates? Truth or Lies?
Do you know that neurological research stated that lateral and vertical eye movement can be associated with the activity of the brains? Isn’t it interesting to figure the relation between the movement of your eyes with brain process? This article will give you some tutorials to explain the NLP Eye accessing cues.
One of the way to figure out eye movement interpretation is by observing its movement while someone is being asked a few question that have been prepared to guide the thinking pattern of the subject. The question can be:
1. What is the color of your skin?
2. What will you be 10 years later?
3. What does your favorite music sound like?
4. What type of voice do you use?
5. What would you feel to be in a jacuzzi?
6. What is your desire right now?
You can alter the question, and giving your attention to where your subject’s eyes moving while he/she answer your question. In NLP, the movement region of the eyes were divided into three areas, above, middle and lower. When the eyes move into upper areas, you can tell that the subject is forming a picture in their mind. The middle movement will indicates that people are making a mind that is related to a sound. The last, the lower eye section, is related to inner feelings or what they speak to their own self.
The later variable on finding out the NLP meaning of an eye movement is the horizontal direction they moved. For a right handed people, a movement to their left means they were accessing their memory, or anything they have experienced, whether it be something they saw or heard previously. While turning their eye to their right indicates that the subject is constructing the thing they are describing.
Many people make failure using this NLP theory of eye movement to tell people are lying or not. They tend to think that when a person is speaking with the eye moving to the right, that means those people were lying. But actually, that depends on the question you’ve made. When you were asking “What do you do for a living before?” and the right handed subject is turning into the right direction, you can know that maybe the subject is lying about something. But if you ask somebody about “What will you do if you meet your idol?” and the subject describe what they will do by turning their eye to the right, that doesn’t mean their lying. Their eye moves to the right because they don’t have any memory yet about meeting their idol. I hope this little NLP tutorial help, thank you for reading.
