Uptime

Also known as:External FocusSensory Awareness
Definition

A state in which a person's attention is fully directed outward toward the external environment — what they can see, hear, and sense around them. In Uptime, internal dialogue and self-referential thinking are minimized, allowing for heightened sensory acuity and present-moment awareness. NLP practitioners cultivate Uptime during sessions to maintain full attention on the client's nonverbal cues. Uptime is also used in performance contexts to achieve a state of flow and full external engagement.
