Her philosophy is rooted in the understanding that over 95% of our daily routines are governed by unconscious processes. She highlights the subtle yet powerful shifts that occur at this unconscious level, drawing an analogy to the automatic way we perform simple tasks, such as rising from a chair without conscious thought. This concept echoes the foundational work of Milton Erickson, a pioneer in modern psychotherapy, who explored the intricacies of conditioned programming.

each pattern should be taught inductively to individuals. She gained experience of indirect or inductive learning especially from
At the core of Ridhima’s approach is the belief that transformation must occur at multiple levels: neurological, physiological, and psychological. Her methods involve inductive trainings which she learnt from her mentors Dr. John Grinder, Carmen Bostic St. Clair & Michael Carroll.
Some of the methods also involve delving into the intricate mechanisms behind our behaviors, asking critical questions such as: What’s stopping to change? What’s that one thing which needs to happen so that we can have a profound shift in our lives? How do we do patterns? How can we identify and change these patterns effectively?
Her courses are like executive MBA’s degree courses, spreading from 3 months to 3 years of individual mentoring & practice. Ridhima provides valuable insights to coaches/counsellors/therapists/professionals involved in change intervention into recognizing and addressing physiological and neurological changes when facing challenges such as lack of motivation, procrastination, or emotional overwhelm.
Her approach includes observing minute details—such as breathing patterns, physiological responses, and neurological structures—to gain deeper insights into one’s internal processes and facilitate meaningful change.
Practical exercises are a key component of Ridhima’s methodology. For instance, when individuals feel stuck, she recommends paying attention to their breathing patterns and physiological state. Simple actions, such as adjusting posture or engaging in physical activities like juggling, can trigger noticeable shifts. However, for more profound issues such as trauma or grief, Ridhima acknowledges that deeper, assisted processes are necessary.
A distinctive aspect of Ridhima’s training is her emphasis on the art of deep listening and observation. She trains coaches to go beyond verbal communication, paying close attention to physiological changes, language patterns, and even subtle movements like eye shifts or changes in skin color. This heightened awareness helps identify underlying issues and facilitates more effective interventions.
Ridhima’s dedication to mastering New Code NLP is evident in her extensive training and experience. She traveled to Sesimbra, Portugal, to study under the guidance of Dr. John Grinder, Michael Carroll, and Carmen Bostic—pioneers in the field and creators of New Code NLP.
