Make You
With decades of practical and clinical hypnotherapy work behind
him--during which he claims to have cured everything from phobias
to schizophrenia--hypnotist and author Bandler (Get the Life You
Want) rejects conventional psychotherapy in favor of
'neuro-linguistic programming, ' rooted in the inherent human
capacity for learning and communication. Here, Bandler collects his
techniques for overcoming mental problems now and in the future.
Trance states, according to Bandler, are phenomena vital to the
human experience, particularly in repetitive behaviors: '[A]t some
level or other, everything is hypnosis...[people] have their work
trances, their relationship trances, their driving trances.'
Exploring these trance states with readers, Bandler provides a
number of practical, meditative strategies for developing one's
abilities to self-assess and reprogram destructive patterns,
providing numerous patient anecdotes and sidelights on subjects
like buried hypnotic commands. Despite some improbable claims
(achieving lasting cures after only one trance session), Bandler's
thorough breakdown of the learning process and simple, cumulative
exercises make this psychological self-help worth a look,
especially for those who have hit dead ends with more standard
approaches. Publishers Weekly, November 2008
