Psychobabble: A Straight Forward, Plain English Guide to NLP

Neuro-linguistic programming (or NLP) is an approach to communication, personal development, and psychotherapy created in the 1970s. The title refers to a stated connection between the neurological processes ("neuro"), language ("linguistic"), and behavioral patterns that have been learned through experience ("programming") and can be organized to achieve specific goals in life. The founders of NLP, Richard Bandler and John Grinder, say that NLP is capable of addressing problems such as phobias, depression, habit disorder, psychosomatic illnesses, and learning disorders.

Donna Blinston has done a magnificent job explaining what NLP is and how you can understand the what NLP is really all about. Psychobabble is a practical text book, written in plain English and broken down into bite size chunks so that all readers can follow and utilize the techniques of Neuro linguistic programming (NLP). After introducing what NLP is and how it originated, the NLP Diploma is then broken down into techniques organized by chapter. Each chapter then follows the same layout, further broken down giving a real world definition, the benefits, the history and/or science and real life examples of the technique. With the chapter finishing with practical exercises for the reader to learn and develop the technique further for themselves.
