L. Michael Hall has revised and substantially expanded his classic, The Secrets Of Magic. In its explanation and development of the Meta-model, which lies at the heart of communication excellence in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), Dr Hall demonstrates how your life can be dramatically enriched by having complete control over how you relate and interpret what you are communicating to others. In a clear and logical manner the author examines: how language affects the mind-body system; how language can perform magic-like feats in the nervous and immune systems, and how the magic can bless, empower and enable us to take charge of running our own brains.''Words are so powerful - they can encourage or destroy a person.This book is all about words and language, and how they can be used constructively and positively. Using NLP techniques, Dr Hall demonstrates effective and constructive methods of using language to aid personal growth and development.This book goes beyond the Meta-Model. It shows clearly how to use the richness of language to empower your own life and that of your clients.'' Terri Bodell FNACHP (Fellow of the National Association of Counsellors, Hypnotherapists and Psychotherapists) UK
