As a licensed psychotherapist, I am constantly searching for tools to assist me in helping my clients "maximize their potentials." I have found the tools offered through Anne's book, "Mindworks" to be just what "the doctor (or shall I say, 'mechanic') ordered." Of all the NLP books I've read, this one IS the best. The author's writing style and frequent use of metaphor's greatly enhances the book's message and application. I plan to read and reference, "Mindworks" many times as I want to access Anne's many tools of wisdom. Thank you, Anne!

If you've ever asked yourself "What was I thinking?" or wondered why you can't seem to change your behavior despite your best intentions, maybe it's time you understood your mind. When you learn how your mind works, you can identify and then change the behavior that's stopping you from reaching your goals. Called "an owner's manual for the mind," this straightforward, accessible book explains how to build a better life through understanding and directing the way your mind represents your experiences. The book is organized around the seven principle of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, or NLP, a psychological model based on the way the brain codes learning and experience. Anne Linden has organized the basic tools of NLP to into a hardware store of practical techniques that are easy to grasp and use. These include: communicating precisely; reading the reactions of others; creating "blueprints" for success; tapping inner resources; recycling mistakes; replacing destructive behavior; and changing your perspective in order to see hidden choices. The power of Mindworks lies in trying-not simply reading-the exercises that demonstrate these techniques. Admittedly this takes some diligence on the part of the reader, but with so many tools to choose from you will definitely walk away with one or two that will provide startling insights into your behavior and motives.

I got this book two weeks ago and I am half way through the book~~ I have to say that I benefit tremondously from this book. It's not difficult to read and it gives practical exercises at the end of each chapter for readers to work on so that it'll be easier to grasp the concepts being taught. I give it a 2 thumb up. Good job Anne!! ^_^
