348 Part VI: The Part of Tens
Core Transformation
Core Transformation (Real People Press, 1996) offers techniques in NLP,
discovered and developed by Connirae Andreas, and designed to bring
greater wholeness to the reader in order to facilitate personal change. The
technique for Core Transformation is based on the premise that conflicting
parts exist in every person’s unconscious, yearning to reach a core state
and thereby wholeness. This book is a breakthrough in the field of personal
development because it enables you to use limitations as a springboard to
reaching core states such as inner peace.
Frogs into Princes
Frogs into Princes (Real People Press, 1979) is one of the seminal books in
the field of NLP. The book is actually the transcript of a live training session
conducted by the founding fathers of NLP, John Grinder and Richard Bandler,
and beautifully edited by Steve Andreas. Although further developments
have occurred in NLP since this book was first published, this title is a
must-read for starting you on the path of discovering NLP.
Infl uencing with Integrity
In Influencing with Integrity (Crown House Publishing, 1984), Geine Z Laborde
makes use of lots of line drawings and cartoons to create a book that’s easy
to read and understand. She simplifies a complex subject to give the reader
a set of state-of-the-art skills to use in all areas of communication. The
straightforward approach, with its focus on business applications, makes
this book especially useful for people in the corporate world.
Manage Yourself, Manage Your Life
If you want to discover the theory of NLP, Manage Yourself, Manage Your
Life (Judy Piatkus Publishers, 1999) by Ian McDermott and Ian Shircore isn’t
for you. However, if you want to experience NLP while you ‘plan to make
change happen on your terms’, this book is just the one to read and practise.
Experiencing NLP with this book, prior to going on an NLP practitioner
course, provides an invaluable basis for your learning.
