It is in human’s nature to pay attention to what they can see, hear, touch, or feel at any given time. However, the awareness may require a bit more assistance when it comes to noticing objects that are not immediately in front of us. Humans spend a large amount of their waking hours engaging in what is referred to as inner speech, which consists of natural language sentences. An intrusive thought is an unwelcome, involuntary idea, image, or disagreeable notion that can become an obsession, is distressing or stressful, and can be difficult to control or eliminate. In people with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), Tourette syndrome (TS), depression, body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), and sometimes attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), such thoughts can become incapacitating, anxiety-inducing, or persistent. Many people experience the same uneasiness and negative emotions as those who have more intrusive thoughts, even though most people are able to dismiss them. Most individuals view intrusive thoughts as a "fleeting annoyance." Persistent, unwanted ideas or concerns that might be difficult to ignore and can cause anxiety or annoyance are known as intrusive thoughts. Neuro-Linguistic Programming, or NLP, provides methods for controlling these ideas by changing how they are viewed and addressed. In this paper researchers are trying to explore Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and some easy ways to use it to address intrusive thoughts. In conclusion, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) enables us to comprehend the connections between the language, ideas, and behaviours. People may enhance their emotions and actions by learning to alter the way they think. Whether for job, therapy, or personal development, NLP provides us with useful tools to improve their lives. All things considered, NLP is a useful tool for increasing self-awareness and enhancing communication in a sometimes-overwhelming world.
