To answer what a neurolinguistic programming reframing technique is, it is first important to note that, like anchoring and future pacing, reframing is an NLP programming exercise. This one means changing your perception about something, such as an event, purposefully. By 'reframing' it in this way, the idea is that you will feel differently about it. In other words, the meaning of it will alter just like the meaning of a word can subtly vary with context. That said, reframing is not unique to NLP and is widely used by therapists offering different services. One technique for reframing is called emotional accounting whereby you transform negative thoughts into more positive ones. You can also try cognitive reframing which means thinking more positively about events. Reframing an event you thought was a disaster might entail, for example, picking out one or two things that were a success and focussing on those.
