The Rescripting Process was created by Robbie Steinhouse, who presents the course alongside NLP Master Trainer Nishith Shah.
At the heart of this course is the concept of Life Scripts, an idea originating in Transactional Analysis (TA), developed by psychiatrist Eric Berne and further explored by psychologist Claude Steiner. Life scripts describe the often-unconscious stories we form about ourselves, other people and how life is likely to unfold.
As children, we naturally try to make sense of the world, find our place in it and work out how to gain love, security and belonging. We draw conclusions from our early experiences, the messages we receive from those around us and the expectations placed upon us. With a child’s limited understanding and resources, these conclusions can make perfect sense at the time, even when they are based on incomplete information and mistaken assumptions.
Gradually, these early conclusions can become an internal storyline: a set of beliefs about who we are, what we can expect from life and the role we must play. Without realising it, we may continue to follow this storyline into adulthood, repeating familiar patterns of behaviour and relationships, and interpreting new experiences through the lens of old assumptions.
The Rescripting Process offers a way to recognise and work with these patterns, exploring how they developed and how they may be influencing us today. By bringing greater awareness to the stories we have inherited or created, we can begin to loosen their hold and make more conscious choices about how we live today.
The aim is to discover your script, distinguish between the lessons that still serve you and the outdated conclusions that may limit your possibilities. Then rewrite it, changing it into a powerful and lasting force to help you live the life you choose to lead.
Here are a few examples of Life Scripts
- Taking the weight of the world on your shoulders: It's all down to you.
- Perfectionism: A drive to perfection where nothing is ever good enough.
- People-pleasing: Always putting others’ needs above your own.
- Perpetual anxiety: Living in fear of what could go wrong.
Course Overview
The course is structured as follows:
Day 1: Identify Your Life Script
Begin the process of uncovering the underlying story you have developed about yourself and your place in the world. Through guided exploration and practical exercises, identify the early experiences and decisions that have shaped this story and recognise how it continues to influence your choices and behaviour today.
Day 2: Rescript Yourself
Work with the patterns you have identified to develop new perspectives and possibilities. Through a guided process, explore how to let go of old beliefs and establish more useful ways of thinking and responding.
The emphasis is on integrating these changes into everyday life, so that they become lasting shifts rather than a temporary sense of inspiration or wellbeing.
About Robbie Steinhouse
Robbie Steinhouse is one of the world’s leading NLP trainers and coaches, with a reputation for witty and approachable presentation and firm but caring facilitation.
Starting as an entrepreneur in the 1980s, his relative success in business was not matched by personal fulfilment.
He began an investigation of how to be both happy and successful, exploring a range of therapies and ideas. Eventually he found a combination of techniques that finally gave him the happiness he so craved.
Some came from NLP and Transactional Analysis, but he also developed a number of his own. The Rescripting Process is one of these.
After this personal success, his business then really took off, enabling him to retire and fully focus on helping people change.
Robbie founded NLP School in 2003 with this aim in mind.
Based in London, our courses have helped thousands of students discover themselves and improve their lives.
Testimonials
I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Robbie and to NLP.
It was quite a journey for me. The first day was an intellectual understanding, the second was about realizing and changing deep rooted script I put on myself, and the third helped me build a new way of living my life with hope.
The first part of the course was logical and formal. Later Robbie added a lot more humour. When asked if I would be interested to do the re-scripting. I had no idea what it was but I was happy to explore, without knowing that it would change me from that day onwards. With an engineering degree, and MBA, 21 years of corporate life in IT consulting and HR, plus 10 years of entrepreneur experience, having lived in 8 cities of 5 countries, I would not think that someone could change the way I think of myself in less than one hour exercise. But I experienced it in re-scripting.
The journey forward is bright and broad!

As long as I can remember I had carried within me a belief that I would die prematurely at the same age as my father and his mother, my grandmother. Being a virtual 'clone' didn't help either! Looking back now, I see this belief as a black cloud hovering above my head.
Back in 2008, whilst doing my NLP Practitioner training with Robbie Steinhouse, he included in one of our modules, a process he had devised that involved rescripting a 'family curse'. I went along with the process, working on this belief I held, as I thought that as a 'family curse', my example was as good as it gets! I approached the practical part of the session with a healthy dose of scepticism. After all, how could an NLP process overcome something as strongly embedded as this?
The following week as I went back into my busy daily life, I took some time to reflect on the exercise. I realised that when I thought about my father and grandmother, I no longer saw a connection to my own demise. I was able to think about their dying without the accompanying sick feeling of pre-ordained doom that had been with me for so many years. The black cloud never returned.
And now I'm delighted to say that I sailed past that age milestone - and am still very much here to say how much that process made a difference for me!
