Best of luck with your book; it sounds fascinating. I'm a total NLP convert, but it would be great to expose some of the myths and who people what a powerful and effective tool it can be. I would love an article from you about how you cured yourself from hayfever ;) @russel davis: Amazing comment Russell - thank you so much. Best of luck with your book; it sounds fascinating.

I am always amazed at how the stuff within NLP such as visualisations is so powerful. I have cured my hayfever and allergy to horses through visualisation. I am in the middle of writing an eBook to help women who are struggling to get pregnant understand the power and benefits of visualisation. Part of that is how stress is so damaging to our body and prevents the natural healing process and the other is how visualisation can actually speed up and strengthen that process. You can use your mind to change your biology. The brain cannot distinguish between reality and what is in the mind. In 1994, Harvard scientists taught a simple 5-fingered combination of piano notes to a group of volunteers using all their fingers. They were instructed to play it over and over again for two hours a day, for five consecutive days. Another group of volunteers didn't actually play the notes, but just imagined playing them for the same period, two hours a day for five consecutive days. Whist doing this they also imagined hearing the notes. The brain scans taken over the 5 days show the changes to the brain are almost identical. When tested those that did the visualisations only were are good (made the same number of mistakes) as those that had been physically practicing for 5 days. After 2 hours of practice those that did the visualisations only were as good as those that had practiced for 5 days. OK, I am going to stop now as I can go on for hours on this stuff!!
