Short description of talk
This talk explores how Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) models and modeling can be creatively combined with humour to support patients’ recovery and well-being. Drawing from the Healthy Humour Coaching framework, it presents innovative ways to integrate humour with NLP’s main patterns—anchoring, reframing, and perceptual positions—to enhance emotional resilience and engagement during the healing process.
The session focuses on how these techniques can complement official therapies and medical protocols, providing healthcare professionals with practical tools to foster more compassionate, motivating, and effective communication with patients recovering from surgical operations, accidents, or long-term treatments. Participants will discover how humour—used ethically and empathetically—can activate positive states, reduce stress, and strengthen the therapeutic alliance.
Combining scientific insights with experiential demonstrations, this talk highlights how NLP-based humour interventions can transform the recovery journey into a more human, participative, and resourceful experience—where patients reconnect with their own capacity for healing and optimism.
