Evolving Consciousness, Evolving NLP "Evolving Consciousness, Evolving NLP: It's time to realize that NLP is a “multiple model” model, which has users who are interested in correspondences with other multiple model models, especially Spiral Dynamics and Ken Wilber's 4 Quadrant Model. As these are all autonomous models, as are the individuals and organizations they describe, there are cybernetic conditions between them.

This suggests the need for ‘wellformedness’ conditions for combining autonomous models (Bateson, Manturana & Varela).

1. Make sure there is a sensory-based description.
2. Seek the cybernetic complementarity in (so called) cause-effects.
3. Remember that nominalizations are terms of relationship, not characteristics.
4. We do NLP to seek to discover how the processes could work.

This suggests the next areas of NLP modelling are the structure of generalization and cybernetics: scope, category, context and recursiveness.
An example modelling the structure of an expectations and how recursive processes could create levels of consciousness corresponding to Wilber's model was offered."
