NLP could be the most important synthesis of knowledge about human communications to emerge since the '60s. (from Amazon)

When applied correctly, NLP is purely practical and realistic. That's why we decided to focus this book on what really matters: actions you can take right now to help you or your client make the mental shifts needed to attain your goals and aspirations. What’s new in the 12th edition (2022):Over 50 new and field-tested techniques were added.Every page has been revised and improved to make it even easier to follow the action steps of each pattern and apply them immediately.A larger page format means we can pack even more practical information into a single volume. Granted, the book itself is a bit on the heavy side (3.3 lbs. / 1.5 kg), but still, it's less expensive and easier to work with than having to buy a whole series of books.A complementary 6 hours audio course for newcomers to NLP (downloadable)A new Introductory section: NLP Briefly ExplainedNew illustrations to make some of the more complex concepts easier to digest. Our main purpose for writing this book series is to provide evidence-based and practical applications of NLP from our experience as seasoned professionals in the fields of therapy and counseling. The techniques and patterns we share with you in this massive book are the same ones we've been using as private therapists at the Erickson Institute for the last two decades. These are the methods we discovered to be the most useful and effective for ourselves and our clients. We hope you find this book useful both personally and professionally. The Big Book of NLP is an incredible toolbox; use it wisely. Misleading information and exaggerations about NLP are widespread. We hope to rectify that and bring NLP back to the mainstream. The primary focus of all our publishing projects is on practical applications of well researched and field-tested therapeutic strategies, with no "magical stories", outrageous claims or space fillers. We'd love to hear from you if you have any questions, comments, requests, or simply need some friendly advice. ======================================== At last, a concise encyclopedia of NLP patterns! Over 350 techniques, patterns and strategies are included in The Big Book Of NLP: Expanded. The methods cover everything from the fundamentals that every practitioner needs, like the Swish pattern and The Phobia Cure, to advanced and unique patterns like The Nested Loops method and Learning Strategies. Many of the techniques discussed here have never been published before and are unique. More importantly, and in contrast to most other NLP books and programs, the patterns have been written with great care and testing to ensure that they are clear and immediately followable.

NLP: The Essential Guide to Neuro-Linguistic Programming book cover

by NLP Comprehensive, Tom Dotz, Tom Hoobyar, Susan Sanders·You?

By the team behind the bestselling NLP: The New Technology of Achievement comes an essential new guide to NLP techniques—for self-development and influencing others—in a focused, step-by-step handbook. NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) has already helped millions of people overcome fears, increase confidence, enrich relationships, and achieve greater success. Now, from the company and training team behind NLP: The New Technology of Achievement, one of the bestselling NLP books of all time, comes NLP: The Essential Guide to Neuro-Linguistic Programming \. Written by three NLP Master Practitioners and training coaches, including the president of NLP Comprehensive, with an introduction from the President of NLP Comprehensive, NLP: The Essential Guide to Neuro-Linguistic Programming guides users to peak performance in business and life, and gets specific results. In twelve illuminating sections, NLP: The Essential Guide to Neuro-Linguistic Programming leads you through dozens of “discoveries”—revelations of NLP practice that enable you to explore your own personal thinking patterns, to manage them—and to transform them. Divided into two categories, “All About You” and “All About the Other Guy,” these strategies offer a personal and interpersonal program that frees you to become better at managing your feelings instead of being dominated by them, managing your motivations, being less judgmental, more productive, more confident, more flexible, more persuasive, liked, and respected. Chapters on “Personal Remodeling” (Discovery 9: No inner enemy) and “Secrets of Making Your Point” (Discovery 31: Convey understanding and safety without talking), enhance creativity, collaboration, cooperation, and communication. Through “mind reading” techniques—non-verbal communication, and “hearing what’s missing”—learn the secrets of relating with others, understanding how they are thinking—and influencing them. A streamlined all-purpose guide for both newcomers and NLP veterans, NLP: The Essential Guide to Neuro-Linguistic Programming is the new all-in-one, eye-opening blueprint for your own ultimate success.
