Richard Bandler, a forerunner in transformational healing, merges hypnosis and neuro-linguistics into a format designed to assist laypersons as well as professionals to understand and catapult clients to a higher consciousness.  Bandler, the cofounder of NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming) provides a guide which includes further understanding of brain functions and how to re-pattern, re-program, and re-set them through simple tasks. Dispelling fears and inappropriate behaviors becomes an effortless undertaking within trance.

Bandler states “One of the best ways of getting over an unhappy past and guaranteeing a happy and successful future is to practice making yourself feel better for no particular reason.”   In most cultures this is a foreign notion and one holds on to the past while putting blame onto others.  Through Bandler’s process we can create another blueprint, one that relieves us of holding onto the past and creating a future of happiness.  This is not to discount the unhappy past, but to build an authentic happy life. Using the techniques set out by Bandler, we can produce positive change.

As a Certified Hypnotherapist, and a student of NLP, I marvel at Bandler’s understanding and dedication to the betterment of individuals and globally as a whole.  “Richard Bandler’s Guide to Trance-formation” is simple, concise, and very reader-friendly. For the practitioner this is a must-have book.  It could end up being your only resource.  For the layperson, this book will give you understanding of a technique that works; and, you may want to seek out a professional to implement it.
