Using the amazingly effective tools of Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) Mindworks shows you how to unlock the resources, abilities and creativity that you already have in order to accomplish whatever you want to do and take control of your life.


An invitation by an expert to engage with NLP

The sign of a real expert is the ability to simplify. Anné Linden distils her years of teaching NLP into an engaging and enlightening guide for anyone interested in NLP at any level.

The book’s impact comes from how it relates to our everyday experience. It has three major advantages. Firstly, its format: each section is based on a different presupposition, and each short chapter considers an outcome and shows us how to make it possible, each adding to the last. For example, in the section on “there is no failure, only feedback” the opening chapter defines failure, then is followed by learning from failure, and then turning failure into feedback through dissociation, then chunking.

Secondly, its variety: the book applies a skillful blend of well-crafted explanation, dialogue, case study and reflection that draws the reader into NLP with minimum distraction. Excerpts from coaching sessions show how clients respond and shape their own thoughts. The book allows the principles of NLP to stand on their own and each section ends with a story for us to work out.

Thirdly, its format and variety add up to a completely fluent experience, where everything makes sense in relation to everything else. It is refreshing to come across a guide that does not get bogged down in what “N” stands for, and so on. The lack of over-complex diagrams and of almost all illustrations allows the reader to stay focused.

The book is an invitation to review your experiences: at the end of each chapter we are offered a few exercises: these, too, avoid asking us to go out of our way: instead, gentle suggestions to “imagine”, “remember” or “choose” ease us into thoughts and recollections, in which we are guided to look for new meanings.
