improve your brain. My reading speed has went up from 250 words per
minute to 650 in just a few days by using The Speed Reading book,
and is still improving.
His mind map book will give a good grounding in how to use mind
maps to their best advantage for
improved learning and memory.
The memory books are full of really useful practical tips and tools
on how to improve your memory – no need to let it go with age –
improve it instead" |

"Marian Diamond really started the
field of what’s called ‘brain enrichment’ with her ground-breaking
research. She showed that ‘rat TV’ was not good for the brain. She
also did the initial experiments to show that we can grow new brain
cells but Nature wouldn’t publish it. Her book is packed with all
kinds of useful advice on how to nurture your child’s intelligence,
creativity and healthy emotions"

"This book is about the technique
Thought Field Therapy. It gets rid of those negative feelings that
are spoiling your life, like anger, guilt, fear and phobias in a
matter of minutes. Sounds too good to be true? Just try it. I was
amazed by this. And many of my clients have been too. I’ve found it
especially helpful for people who are having trouble dealing with
some very unpleasant person and the feelings of anger or fear are
getting in the way."

"Find out what stress really does to
you and your body – and what to do about it. This is a book that
will make you laugh as well as get you worried. My advice is read
the last chapter first as that tells you what to do. Then read
the
others, safe in the knowledge that you won’t be suffering the
symptoms he describes. It’s fascinating and very readable. Enjoy! If
you ever get the chance to see him talk – cancel everything else and
go" |

"A book that will really help you to
understand people (including yourself). Not only that, but it gives
you easy and straight forward ways to talk to them that will save
you lots of time and trouble.
You can dip and and out of this book –
I still refer to it and I bought it five years ago. Worth every
penny"

Marshall Rosenberg

"This man works in conflict zones,
negotiating with seriously difficult people. He has developed a
wonderful way of doing it and of treating others, even the most
aggressive and awful. This book will teach you how to transform
conflicts into useful dialogues, break patterns of thinking that
lead to anger and depression and speak your mind without upsetting
people" |

"This is a fantastically
well-researched book on a very useful topic. It’s also fun to read
with a useful summary at the end of each chapter. I laughed out loud
at some of his examples – especially where he explains how people
were persuaded to go ahead with Watergate. This will improve your
ability to influence. If you’re really serious about understanding
what makes people do things, you need this book" |

"Lots of great information on how to
communicate effectively with pictures to illustrate. The techniques
are all from NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) but you don’t need
to know anything about NLP to read it. In fact this is a very useful
introduction to the subject.
The author is very experienced and
shares her skills with you in a way that is easy to understand and
very accessible" |

"This is an absolute must if you get
headaches or migraines. It was recommended to me by a dear friend
who was suffering badly. He’d got to the stage where he had just a
few days a month that were headache-free! In just 3 weeks, he had
cured himself thanks to this book.
I recommended it to one of my clients,
after she mentioned to me that she got bad headaches. She had the
same success. Don’t delay, just order it." |

"Anxiety and
depression are a huge problem for millions of people. Compounding
the problem is the common mistaken belief that these disorders
result from bad character or weak will. In fact, recent cutting edge
brain science has shown that they result from brain dysfunctions,
and if they are diagnosed and treated correctly, the quality of life
for millions of sufferers and their families can change
dramatically. Dr. Daniel Amen, a pioneer in uncovering the
connections between the brain and behaviour, has spearheaded the use
of brain SPECT imaging - one of medicine's most sophisticated
functional brain-imaging techniques- in psychiatry. His imaging
studies have revealed the major anxiety and depression centres of
the brain and have paved the way to new, effective approaches to
diagnosis and treatment." |
