I just started reading them, getting not much time these days. So far I found out about Alpha Waves, the electrical oscillations in the brain and NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) by Christopher Hedberg.
Being a credulous character, and also the brilliance of NLP theory, I am very interested in it now. Just the way it simplifies your mental situation is so easy. It was suggested by Bandler and Grinder, who wrote first books related to it. NLP says that the mind is an active constructor of its reality. Rather than passively receiving the information from an active world, NLP states that the mind assembles the incoming information into a model comprised of rules, summaries and descriptions of reality which need not be directly related to what actually happens in the world outside in order to be useful. It goes on to say that as brain actually doesn't touch anything, it experiences distorted perception of reality. The model in our brain is constantly dissected in small parts and uploaded in another faster memory, based on what situation we are in. We further summarize the rules and express them in outside world, and expect the person opposite us to accept that subset and decode it into long and explained commands. The whole structure of the world is modeled on 3 things: Generalization, Deletion and Distortion.
NLP views a person's mind as impoverished or "lacking options" due to the existing structure of world and rules created in its mind over the years. We have to experiment, try different techniques and dig up the rules his mind shunned long time aog and distort some existing rules to improve his own life, while not harming others.
Thats just briliant!! I still have a lot of it to read and to summarize it won't do it justice. Try if you could grab a copy floating around over the net.
