best NLP book ever!

The reason I love this book and think it is the best NLP book I've read is that it has specific exercises that you can practise and get immediate results that will astound you. You can transform you body-experience your feelings and your thought with the techniques in this book. Personally I can now create feelings of something being really funny by visually pulling up submodalaties and from this be able to do things I coudln't do before. Let me give an example. Before I read this I could talk infront of ppl and almost always my throat got tight and I seemed to not be able to make ppl laught wich is and was my goal. Now I have learned that I need to be in a certain state in order to speak in a way that makes me A. feel good when I speak and B. feel as if I'm saying something really funny and not laughing myself. This body-feeling made me be able to speak infront of ppl and ppl just laugh at things I say, just like a commedian kind of. This is just a bonus. I love to be able to speak and just feel good which I now can from using the techniques in this book. This book has several techniques for different purpouses. If you practise them you will get results. An important thing for me was that it was simply not enought to do the exercise once (for my goal) but I need to do the exercise (submodalaties funnier than it should have been, it is actually a memory from which I said something and ppl laugh, where I say something, I hear ppl laugh, I see shapes etc infront of me "submodalaties") and when I do this I can do cool stuff that just didn't accur to me before, since the previous obstacles are not there anymore! BUY IT !!!

Without submodalities there is no NLP!

A great book as only the Master himself can write teaching you the keys to the human mind. Lovely surprise at tne end if you can understand it. A definite "must have" for any serious NLPer.

Very good book!

I really like the way the techniques are explained & created. This is a very good way to learn submodalities and NLP, great introduction overall. The most interesting part is that the focus is on areas of personality and not complex goal/mission oriented stuff (and that's good, trust me:).

A *key* NLP book

Despite its relatively small size (just 116 pages) this is undoubtedly one of the KEY texts for anyone wanting an in depth understanding of NLP.Edited by the late, great Will MacDonald, the book includes: - half a dozen lengthy transcripts of sessions featuring both Will and Richard Bandler - full instructions for 20 practical exercises - a seven page core guide that includes questions to ask to elicit a person's submodalities in a given situation (a basic and vital part of modelling) and lists of typical submodality-related phrases.And all of this is wrapped up in clear and detailed explanations of how to use the material (though you will need prior understanding of installing anchors as that topic is not covered here).If you want to learn the best of NLP you'll definitely want this book.

For people who want to change they look, hear, and feel.

Lots of good exercises for people who want to change their pictures, sounds, and feelings with Neuro Linguistic Programming. A very elegant and masterful author, Will MacDonald brings you every step of the way into the heart of the NLP attitude and methodology.He's focused on the tools on the how to's for people who want to make a distinction in their representational system.You learn about sub-modality.You learn about changing history.You learn how to change a belief.Will does a wonderful collaboration with Richard Bandler, the co-founder of NLP.There are transcripts of the sessions between clients and Richard.Will does a great job of describing what happens and where to find those distinctions.Must be read while taking a training with Anna Russo at Success Strategies or any number of great Neuro Linguistic Programming Trainers out there.I'm very lucky to have had a change to learn about NLP from Will 2 years ago.Must read for the pure practitioner or NLP Trainer wannabe.
