Useable Goldmine

I'll admit I've read Nlp books and felt lost... Even though I knew the teachings were sound and capable of changing your thinking. I just couldn't grasp the "practical" side of applying nlp to my life. But this book changed all that. It's like you get to sit in on intimate sessions with Richard Bandler as he spins his magical web. Not only that, he hand delivers powerful shortcuts to change almost every area of your life. Only it's not with theory and fluff, but simple exercises you can... and will... use to instantly change your mind. If you ever wanted to experience the full potential of nlp, or your confused about how to apply nlp to achieve personal and lasting growth, then this will be the best nlp book you will ever read. P.S. Thanks Richard for sharing this.

RICHARD'S COME HOME AND IT'S A BLESSING

I was on a conference call with Richard about a week or so ago and we talked about this book and the upcoming release of his hypnotic language patterns book (coming out November). Here is what I can say from my heart about the man and about this book: Richard loves life, he loves people, and you get that in this book. He doesn't see any need for suffering over time. Whatever is not working for you in your life, Richard knows that you can get through it, over it or to it without suffering over time. He is not about doing it one way, the right way, his way - he is ALL ABOUT doing what works, doing it fast, and creating shifts in your life that impact you immediately and generatively. A generative shift is one that self adjusts over time, giving you access to more freedom, self expression and power in your life. During the call, Richard shared that the idea for the book came to him while he was cooking. He thought about all the folks who will never walk into a certified NLP training, who may be intimated to delve into Hypnotic Learning Patterns or The Structure of Magic. All at once he knew that after nearly 40 years of change making with people from all walks of life and all parts of the world, that he was the one, (and I say the ONLY ONE) who could write a workable book where foundational NLP techniques and DHE tools are as easy to follow as a recipe for baking a chocolate cake. He achieved his goal. As soon as I am out of the swimming pool, I am sending you a postcard, dear friend! (Swimming phobia from age 8, professional lessons, prior hypnosis, even a Tony Robbins phobia session did not work; what it took was this book!) Buy the book. Put your skepticism in your closet long enough to read it. Choose one place in your life where you would like more freedom, power, joy and full self expression. Then take it on. Follow the directions and go for it. There's more than one technique to choose from, so no worry if the first one doesn't get it, go for the next one. My personal favorite, spinning the feelings in opposite directions. This is a big part of what smashed to pieces the real physical phobic responses my body experienced whenever I tried to swim. If you want to have a life that works in a world that works, this is the book to buy now. No NLP experience required.

Elegant personal changet: the fewest steps required to accomplish anything

What stands out most about Richard's latest, greatest book is it's simplicity. It is pure, unadulterated NLP. He broke this book into three pieces: 1. Getting Over It 2. Getting Through It 3. Getting To It I've been to countless of Richard's trainings and I can easily say he's managed to distill the essence of his work into 210 (fun & easy to apply) pages. Wow! Thanks Richard. PS- I hope you have a HUGE post office box for all the postcards... (get the book and you'll know what i'm talking about)

Accessible NLP

I am a hypnotherapist and I incorporate these methods Richard Bandler developed every day in my practice. This is the most accessible book written by Bandler to date. No NLP jargon, no hyperbole. These are strategies that make dramatic changes in people's lives QUICKLY. Are you overweight because you eat for comfort? Are you afraid of public speaking or flying or crossing bridges? Use these techniques or see a qualified hypnotherapist who knows them! The worst thing that could happen is that you kick yourself for not doing it sooner. -Sean Michael Andrews www.WorldsFastestHypnotist.com Hypnosis - Instant and Rapid Inductions
