Anchoring is one of NLP's famous concepts. An anchor is the situation in which two separate events get tied together in the person's mind so that when one of the events occur the second event is remembered or recalled automatically by his subconscious mind.
A famous example of anchors is recalling certain emotions after listening to a certain song. In that case this song was anchored or tied to a certain time in your past and so you remembered that time when you listened to the song.
The anchor develops when both the events happen together on a regular basis for a certain number of times. For example if every time you watch television while eating you may find yourself getting hungry whenever you watch television.
An overly sensitive person is more likely to develop an anchor faster than anyone else. If two people experienced something while one of them was overly sensitive then the overly sensitive person may develop an anchor faster than the other person.
For example if two people work as field engineers in a mining company then the overwhelming work experience may be anchored to the work place in the overly sensitive person's mind and so he may find himself unable to continue work and he may even quit ,on the other hand, the other person who is not that sensitive to external conditions may find work tolerable.
Anchors are not a bad thing but they can be used to your side to enforce positive behaviour or to help you in quitting bad habits. For example you can create an anchor that generates bad feelings whenever you smoke. By doing so you can help yourself to quit smoking just by using an anchor.
if you have some bad anchors that you want to get rid of then its still possible. For example if you feel bad whenever you workout you can easily remove that anchor.
Removing an anchor can simply be done by repeating one of the events alone without the other one. As time passes your subconscious mind will separate both events and so the anchor will be removed.
