Hi guys,
This question is for those of you who have an extensive background in NLP and or Ericksonian Hypnosis: what, in your honest opinion, is THE best book for learning the basics of NLP & Indirect Hypnosis?

Yes, dear, Joseph O'Connor is acknowledged as one of the "master" of what you are looking for.

All the best,
Beatrix

"Trance Formations" by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, the founders is the most readable and best guide to NLP and Ericksonian Hypnosis. I haven't read it yet but Richard's latest work "Richard Bandler's Guide to Trance-formation: How to Harness the Power of Hypnosis to Ignite Effortless and Lasting Change" sounds good too.

Tad James has some good work as well as Kevin Hogan just to toss out some other names not yet mentioned. Even Tony Robbins.

"the basics" out of a book can only be theories. You need to "get physical" (no not like Olivia NJ)

I would suggest strongly that you seek out a "MeetUp" group near you to join.

I want to learn how to climb mountains and read all the best books on that;until you strap on the gear and jump on cliff you'll never learn. Like riding a bike; book learnin' aint a gunna Git R Done.

Getting proficient in NLP requires you to practice and pay attention to the responses you get and make adjustments in your techniques.

People are unique and you will learn to "Calibrate" and get 'good' at it by doing it not reading about it.

Happy hunting, may you find what you're looking for.

I am no NLP master - I barely understand any of it, in fact. However, I was chatting with a couple of friends who are REALLY into NLP, and they recommended a book to me which I will pass on:

"The Big Book of NLP Techniques - Shlomo Vaknin"

I haven't bought it yet, but apparently it is an encyclopedia of NLP techniques.

I cannot comment on indirect hypnosis, other than pointing out that when you say "Eriksonian hypnosis" you are in fact referring to the originator, Milton Erikson, who has several books out there. I imagine that the originator would be a good person to consult on the technique...

Good luck with it!

Best Regards, Georgetta

I've read tons of hypnosis books and I found this to be the best and easiest as all you have to do is read the words of the book.

Self Hypnosis - Hypnotize Yourself with Your Eyes Open

Thanks a lot guys. I've actively practicing NLP for the past few months and I love it. It's helped me out tremendously. I appreciate all of your feedback.

I know the author of this book very well and I will admit, he's a genius when it comes to NLP. BUY THIS BOOK.

NLP and Hypnosis are like a passion to me. When ever I see some book or article about it. I try to read it out. I have seen many impossibilites happened using NLP.

Harlan · 05-14-2009, 11:35 PM

Best book on NLP? Which aspect?

My favorites on NLP:

Frogs Into Princes
Therapeutic Metaphors

My favorites on Ericksonian Hypnosis (NLP related)?

Trance Formations
Phoenix

My favorite Ericksonian books (not connected to NLP)

Therapeutic Trances
Collected Writings (might as well study the master)

There are other books on the list but none of the books listed above make it to my shortlist.

I offer a recommended reading list at NLP Copywriting

Tranceformations by Richard Bandler - Hands down - one of the most hypnotic reads you'll ever experience - I literally felt myself go into trance while reading it (I'm sure this is a desired effect on his readers).

If you want a good book for doing NLP to yourself then i highly recommend

Charles Faulkner & Steve Andreas - Nlp The New Technology Of Achievement

it has over 40 exercises that you can use on yourself and covers

- motivation
- setting goals
- confidence / self esteem
- getting rid of fears and bad memories
- peak performance
- persuasion

Brad Smith · 05-19-2009, 05:34 AM

There are so many good books in this field which I have been studying for many years myself and one book that comes to mind is "Monsters and Magical Sticks" by Steven Heller and Terry Steele. I am sure you will like it! didn't you.
