The Neil Howard stages are fast becoming an autumn tradition at Oulton with some very interesting entries to jog memories, and very enthusiastically driiven , with a great atmosphere when darkness descends over the Cheshire countryside and the cars' lights pierce the darkness.
A great day's motorsport, with myself and mrs snowman breaking off from the spectating to thoroughly enjoy ourselves driving a GT86 on Oulton's rally school stages, and the day was rounded off by a bonfire and an excellent fireworks display.
For those wishing to identify the cars the entry list for the rally can be found here www.rallies.info/res.php?e=196&o=p&t=999&r=e&... and the results here www.rallies.info/res.php?e=196&o=p&t=999&r=o&...
A dabbawala (literally, one who carries a box, see Etymology), also spelled as dabbawalla or dabbawallah is a person in the Indian city of Mumbai who is employed in a unique service industry whose primary business is collecting the freshly cooked food in lunch boxes from the residences of the office workers (mostly in the suburbs), delivering it to their respective workplaces and returning back the empty boxes by using various modes of transport. "Tiffin" is an old-fashioned English word for a light lunch, and sometimes for the box it is carried in. For this reason, the dabbawalas are sometimes called Tiffin Wallahs.
The word "Dabbawala" in Hindi when literally translated, means "one who carries a box". "Dabba" means a box (usually a cylindrical tin or aluminium container), while "wala" is a suffix, denoting a doer of the preceding word[1]. The closest meaning of the Dabbawala in English would be the "lunch box delivery man". Though this profession seems to be simple, it is actually a highly specialized service in Mumbai which is over a century old and has become integral to the cultural life of this city.
The concept of the dabbawala originated when India was under British rule. Many British people who came to the colony didn't like the local food, so a service was set up to bring lunch to these people in their workplace straight from their home. Presently, Indian business men are the main customers for the dabbawalas, and the services provided are cooking as well as delivery.
[edit]
Background and the delivery chain
At 19,373 persons per km², Mumbai is India's most densely populated city with a huge flow of traffic. Because of this, lengthy commutes to workplaces are common, with many workers traveling by train.
Instead of going home for lunch or paying for a meal in a café, many office workers have a cooked meal sent by a caterer who delivers it to them as well, essentially cooking and delivering the meal in lunch boxes and then having the lunch boxes collected and re-sent the next day. This is usually done for a monthly fee. The meal is cooked in the morning and sent in lunch boxes carried by dabbawalas, who have a complex association and hierarchy across the city.
A collecting dabbawala, usually on bicycle, collects dabbas from homes or, more often, from the dabba makers (who actually cook the food). The dabbas have some sort of distingushing mark on them, such as a color or symbol. The dabbawala then takes them to a designated sorting place, where he and other collecting dabbawalas sort (and sometimes bundle) the lunch boxes into groups. The grouped boxes are put in the coaches of trains, with markings to identify the destination of the box (usually there is a designated car for the boxes). The markings include the rail station to unload the boxes and the building address where the box has to be delivered.
At each station, boxes are handed over to a local dabbawala, who delivers them. The empty boxes, after lunch, are again collected and sent back to the respective houses.
[edit]
The Nutan Mumbai Tiffin Box Suppliers Trust
This service was originated in 1880. Later, Mahadeo Havaji Bachche, a migrant from Maharashtra, started a lunch delivery service with about 100 men.[2] In 1930, he informally attempted to unionize the dabbawallas. Later a charitable trust was registered in 1956 under the name of Nutan Mumbai Tiffin Box Suppliers Trust. The commercial arm of this trust was registered in 1968 as Mumbai Tiffin Box Carriers Association. The present President of the association is Raghunath Medge. Nowadays, the service often includes cooking of foods in addition to the delivery.
[edit]
Economic analysis
Everyone who works within this system is treated as an equal.[citation needed] Regardless of a dabbawala's function, everyone gets paid about two to four thousand rupees per month (around 25-50 British pounds or 40-80 US dollars).[citation needed]
More than 175,000 or 200,000 lunch boxes get moved every day by an estimated 4,500 to 5,000 dabbawalas, all with an extremely small nominal fee and with utmost punctuality. According to a recent survey, there is only one mistake in every 16,000,000 deliveries and the system has registered a Six Sigma performance at 99.999999 rating.[citation needed]
The BBC has produced a documentary on dabbawalas, and Prince Charles, during his visit to India, visited them (he had to fit in with their schedule, since their timing was too precise to permit any flexibility). Owing to the tremendous publicity, some of the dabbawalas were invited to give guest lectures in top business schools of India, which is very unusual. Most remarkably in the eyes of many Westerners, the success of the dabbawala trade has `involved no advanced technology.[3]
The New York Times reported in 2007 that the 125 year old dabbawala industry continues to grow at a rate of 5-10% per year.[4]
[edit]
Low-tech and lean
A dabba
Although the service remains essentially low-tech, with the barefoot delivery men as the prime movers, the dabbawalas have started to embrace modern information technology, and now allow booking for delivery through SMS. A web site, mydabbawala.com, has also been added to allow for on-line booking, in order to keep up with the times.[5] An on-line poll on the web site ensures that customer feedback is given pride of place. The success of the system depends on teamwork and time management that would be the envy of a modern manager. Such is the dedication and commitment of the barely literate and barefoot delivery men (there are only a few delivery women) who form links in the extensive delivery chain, that there is no system of documentation at all. A simple colour coding system doubles as an ID system for the destination and recipient. There are no multiple elaborate layers of management either — just three layers. Each dabbawala is also required to contribute a minimum capital in kind, in the form of two bicycles, a wooden crate for the tiffins, white cotton kurta-pyjamas, and the white trademark Gandhi topi (cap). The return on capital is ensured by monthly division of the earnings of each unit.
[edit]
Uninterrupted services
The service is uninterrupted even on the days of extreme weather, such as Mumbai's characteristic monsoons. The local dabbawalas at the receiving and the sending ends are known to the customers personally, so that there is no question of lack of trust. Also, they are well accustomed to the local areas they cater to, which allows them to access any destination with ease. Occasionally, people communicate between home and work by putting messages inside the boxes. However, this was more common before the accessibility of instant telecommunications.

Hi,
For over twenty five years I have seen how magic can add value to delivery. There are a huge collection of secret techniques out there, many of them psychological, that engages and attracts people. The Sleight of Mind Set workshops are one day workshops all about how you can tap into this rich stream of ideas and Mind Magic's enduring popularity. The day looks at two paths running together; one learning the tricks and effects, the other learning about why and how they add value to us.
They are being held around the country, in:
Neuromagic & the Tricks of the Mind
Applied Advantage

They start at 10:00 a.m. and finish at 4:30 p.m. For more information about the workshops, please got to mindsways.com/SMS/
NEUROMAGIC AND THE TRICKS OF THE MIND
As a psychologist and Psychological Artist, I have been fascinated by how the principles used in magic and mind magic in particular can reveal so much about our human nature and behaviour. Now, neuromagic as well as psychology is learning from Mind Magic.
Neuromagic is brand new field of neuroscience that is being used to understand how magic, affects and changes how we see the world. This in turn informs how we think and what we believe about ourselves and others. For just one example of how magic is being used with neuroscience to study change blindness, go to mindsways.com/SMS#Neuromagic
As is often pointed out in portrayals of Sherlock Holmes; "we see but do not observe". Our cognitive biases constantly distort and filter how we think. We are always under the control of stereotyping, confirmational bias, default effects and much more, basically as magicians know; "we cannot believe what we see but we see what we believe"
The good news is that we do not need to be at the mercy of these thinking fallacies. As neuroscience shows us: we can change. Some go as far as to say that we actually have infinite plasticity, in other words, there is no limit to how much we can change ourselves or how we think.
The Sleight of Mind Set workshops use the principle that "all is not as it appears" to be able to illustrate this and how we see the world. This in turn affects how we act, think and behave, just as neuromagic shows us. The SNT kit has the tools built within it to help us change by making use of the infinite plasticity we all have and to do so with entertaining and enlightening ways. You get your own SNT kit to take away with you on the day. To see more, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/
APPLIED ADVANTAGE
A theme of the day is how you can use these ideas and techniques to add practical value to your delivery through:
Using MMI's (Multiple Moments of Interest, Interaction & Insight)
Connecting emotionally and being relevant (emotional triggers)
Being memorable (giving people something novel to talk about)
Creating attraction (and making you stand out)
Increasing your delivery vocabulary
Bridging the innovation gap
Personal Touch delivery
For more information on the themes of the day, please see mindsways.com/SMS/
TAPPING INTO THE POPULARITY
Mind Magic holds an enduring allure and popularity by bringing together entertainment, mystery and the paranormal. Magic is never far out of the popular sphere with Derren Brown currently filling theatres across the country with his 'Infamous' tour and drawing large TV audiences.
This is also shown by the new blockbuster film; Now You See Me. The film is based on the premise of what if magic were real. Starring Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg and Isla Fisher, the film shows the hold that magic has over our imagination. To see more about the film, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/#NowYouSeeMe.
Our aim is to make day informative, entertaining and practical for you. People have attended for many reasons including:
Curiosity
Learning something new
Interest in how the mind works
Adding variety to enliven their presentations
New and different approaches
Adding to their business practices
An increased reputation
A channel for their passion and fascination
Wider perspectives and experiences
The real power of Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry lies not with just the tricks, but the effect that the delivery of the tricks have on people. By doing this, you are tapping into the emotions of mystery combined with the power of the Personal Touch.
On the workshops and in the SNT kit, we give you the tricks, however, learning to use them with what you do is where the real power lies. This is when the real magic happens, in the theatre of the minds. For more on this, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/
THEATRE OF THE MIND
On the workshop we uncover tricks, look at making a trick into an effect and making the effect into a piece that works for you. The three levels we work on are:
Effect of a trick - "how did you do that?"
Analysis of a trick - "why does this trick work? Why did the effect happen?"
Practicality of a trick - "how you can use the tricks for myself?"
This involves using a combination of Psychology, Neuroscience, Smart Thinking and the ideas, tools and techniques from Mind Magic. For more on this, please see mindsways.com/SMS/
EXAMPLES OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
A couple of interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please take a look here or visit mindsways.com/SMS#PsychologicalArtistry. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry.
WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE WORKSHOP?
The feedback from the workshops have been extremely positive, with people from recent workshops saying things like:
"It really was most enjoyable and enlightening"
"The most unique training day I have ever been on"
"My target was to get 3 things to add to my training, I had 11 by lunchtime"
"Fantastic day... a great eye opener!"
"Thanks to you both for a challenging, stimulating and enjoyable day"
"I've had plenty of thoughts about how some of the approaches used might be incorporated into several areas of my work"
"Another great course, with plenty to think about and over"
The workshops have been enjoyed and shown to be beneficial to many people over the past year. The events have been attended and proved to be relevant to people from a wide range of backgrounds including entrepreneurs, business consultants, health professionals, coaches of life, performance and sports, therapists, hypnotherapists, trainers etc.
This is an unorthodox approach to understanding human behaviour, illustrating and promoting our messages, and this is where the real power lies. As Marty Neumeier says in ZAG " Be Different - NO Really Different". For more on what people say, please see mindsways.com/what-people-say/

For more information on the day, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/ and for a brochure of what the day is about, please look at www.mindsways.com/SMS/.
Over the past 18 Months I have been running these Sleight of Mind Set Workshops throughout the country, and I am really pleased with the feedback, it has been tremendous, please don't just take my word for it, (I am after all biased) please see what people have said by going to www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/
For over twenty five years I have seen how magic can add value to delivery. There are a lot of unknown techniques out there, many of them psychological, that engages and attracts people. The Sleight of Mind Set workshop is all about how you can tap into this rich stream of ideas and "Mind Magic's" enduring popularity. The day looks at two paths running together, one learning the tricks and effects, the other why and how they add value to us.
They start at 10:00 a.m. and finish at 4:30 p.m. For more information about the workshops, please got to www.mindsways.com/SMS/
THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX - OR CLINGING TO THE LID
Many people claim that the answers to creativity, standing out from the crowd and finding solutions to problems is thinking outside the box. Although, I see many people who cling ferociously on to the lid. Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic, as well as the tools and techniques contained within them are definitely off the lid. For more, see the Sleight Of Mind Set page at www.mindsways.com/SMS/Explaining what you can achieve with these tools is wonderful. For me, I find it deeply rewarding when I see and the results that have been created using these tools and techniques. Don't just take my word for it, see What People Say About Us at www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/.
The Sleight Of Mind Set day is not just about learning the Mind Magic tricks, (these are quick to learn, but create much to be thought about) what makes it thrilling is what you can build with them for yourself. You can build pieces into your delivery, making this very personal to you. You can take these pieces and use them to ignite a powerful response in others, engaging and involving them in your ideas and what you do. Our focus is around Showing Not Telling which is about illuminating and animating your ideas and concepts. This contributes greatly to leaving people delighted, energized, interested and wanting more.
To find out more about Mind Magic and its uses, please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/
THE POWER OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
The approach we take is what we call Psychological Artistry and this involves using a blend of psychology, mind magic (or mentalism), personal development and smart thinking ideas. By tapping into people's imagination, curiosity and desire for mystery we can engage people in all different areas. By adding in psychological approaches, this is strengthened. I appreciate that by its very nature, it is not a traditional approach but that is where its power lies.
Psychological Artistry is about blending the world of art and psychology. It's about showing the beautiful flaws in our thinking and how we can use them. It's about magnifying how we all think and giving you the opportunity to change it.
A couple of interesting examples the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please see www.mindsways.com/SMS for these and other incredible videos. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry.
STANDING OUT FROM THE CROWD - CREATING YOUR DIFFERENCE
This learning works on a number of levels. On the workshops, we look at what Mind Magic reveals about how we think, act and behave. This allows us to understand the environment we're in.
Whilst doing this, we're also tapping into the fact that performing and illustrating illusions holds a deep fascination for people. This is what allows us to stand out from the crowd. Below are a few quotes of what people have said about the workshop:
"A truly inspiring experience is how I'd best describe the Sleight of Mind Set workshop."
"I came away with lots of ideas to create drama and interest in my training delivery."
"The whole group laughed many times and were absolutely fascinated by each technique."
BEING DIFFERENT - NO, REALLY DIFFERENT
This programme is good for anyone looking for something different and to stimulate new styles of thinking. The feedback has definitely been that it has satisfied the thirst for new ideas whilst ticking all of the edutrainment boxes. This programme is for you if you are interested in any of the following:
Human Behaviour & Psychology
Influence & Persuasion
How We Think
Magic & Magicians
New Experiences
Learning & Teaching
Framing Your Ideas
The day is all about
Exploring the art of possibility
Stimulating creativity and innovation
Transforming personal and professional life
Tapping into your imagination
On the personal development level, it is about transforming
Self esteem
Self confidence
Self awareness
Self motivation
for yourself and others. Overall it acts a catalyst for your future development.
It is intended for people who are curious, want to improve how they connect, express and communicate with others. Overall, it is about adding new skills to you and being able to apply the techniques and ideas from Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic to maximise what you do.
MindSways sessions are based on a unique blend of magic, science, psychological artistry, design and smart thinking. All of this allows you to work with individuals, groups and organisations in an original and dynamic way. It also means that by being trained in these psychological subtleties and powerful techniques, you can add a unique twist to your activities.
Our success in life depends critically on two things; our capacity for insight into our own mental world and that of other people. One of the benefits of learning and applying Mind Magic and psychological artistry is that it puts our thinking habits and styles back on our radar. This is only one aspect of the many benefits that people find when they have worked with us over the past few months.

Holding a forgotten dream in my hand that is suddenly tangible, has been more then just slightly overwhelming. It’s bittersweet. And disturbing. We’d recorded A.N.R. during some of the darkest days of my life, and looking back I honestly think the project was about the only thing keeping me going at the time. I was feeding off a single emotion then. Rage. It was about all I was feeling. Simple fundamental necessities like food, sleep, and social interaction had become nugatory. The ex had just pulled her little Houdini act, and vanished off into oblivion with her new boy candy. I on the other hand was standing alone, nothing more then a boy myself, holding a broken heart in one hand and an eight month old little girl in the other. She’d walked out on us, and I’d never felt so lost, aimless, and inundated. Before or since. It was actually something she had said the last time we ever talked face to face that had kept me going. We were standing on the steps of the court house, and she’d insisted that if “he” and I were both drowning, and she could only save one of us, she would save me. I found that rather profound. I had to giggle. Like in that moment I finally snapped. The proverbial straw that had broken the camels back, as it were. She said she would save me, and yet there I was. Drowning. And she didn’t jump in and save me. Instead she made me take a paternity test. Not to prove I was Dezi’s father, but to prove that I wasn’t. How’s that for hypocrisy?
As eager as she was in what I have to assume was her conquest of breaking me, she only fueled the fire more. The test came back 99.999999. And that is when she vanished. Bailed without her daughter, without me, without even a goodbye or even reconciling the four digit debt I had cosigned on. I don’t even think she paid her lawyer. She just walked away. Nearly two years passed before she popped up again in Meeker, Colorado. I can at least say that by then I’d woken up. The days in between….
As much as I liked being a part of that band, and as much as I wish I could say that when Dezi’s mom had bailed out, I did the right thing. I can’t. I do not miss nor admire who I was or how I dealt with the situation. I was young, selfish, and I was hurt. It was an ignorant stand point. One I’m not the least bit proud of. Rather then doing what I should have, focusing on my little girl, I instead went into self destruction mod. In my head, my daughters mom had just walked out on us, and all I cared about was how badly she’d hurt me. How fucking selfish is that? I was an ignorant little prick. I didn’t center myself on my daughter. I didn’t focus on the one thing that made my life amount to a damn. Instead, to keep my mind off of her and all her hallow lies, cheating, empty promises, and tommyrot, I instead buried myself in work.
Super dad? Hardly. Between the two jobs I was holding down at the time, I was pulling in about 60 hours a week. After she bailed, it jumped up to about 90 hours, give or take twenty. Add the band putting on shows nearly every weekend, after hours shindigs, and me tipping cans left and right, like they were the answer to fuzzing clarity, and recording the album to top it off. It all boiled down to me bailing out on my daughter as much as her mom had. I didn’t sleep. I didn’t eat. And I didn’t care.
So why would I say finishing the album has been bittersweet and disturbing? A.N.R. is a vision made real. It is something I invested countless dollars and hours into. It will also always be a pronounced reminder of the worst hours of my life. My most selfish. My most self destructive. And my most cowardly. I am very proud of the envisage we produced. But I am equally ashamed of the journey I coursed to accomplish it.

Thinking Outside The Box - Or Clinging to the Lid
The Power of Psychological Artistry
Standing Out from the Crowd - Creating Your Difference
Being Different - No, Really Different
What You Get On The Workshops?
What Do People Say About The Workshops?
Register Your Place
For more information on the day, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/ and for a brochure of what the day is about, please look at www.mindsways.com/SMS/.
Over the past 18 Months I have been running these Sleight of Mind Set Workshops throughout the country, and I am really pleased with the feedback, it has been tremendous, please don't just take my word for it, (I am after all biased) please see what people have said by going to www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/
For over twenty five years I have seen how magic can add value to delivery. There are a lot of unknown techniques out there, many of them psychological, that engages and attracts people. The Sleight of Mind Set workshop is all about how you can tap into this rich stream of ideas and "Mind Magic's" enduring popularity. The day looks at two paths running together, one learning the tricks and effects, the other why and how they add value to us.
They start at 10:00 a.m. and finish at 4:30 p.m. For more information about the workshops, please got to www.mindsways.com/SMS/
THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX - OR CLINGING TO THE LID
Many people claim that the answers to creativity, standing out from the crowd and finding solutions to problems is thinking outside the box. Although, I see many people who cling ferociously on to the lid. Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic, as well as the tools and techniques contained within them are definitely off the lid. For more, see the Sleight Of Mind Set page at www.mindsways.com/SMS/Explaining what you can achieve with these tools is wonderful. For me, I find it deeply rewarding when I see and the results that have been created using these tools and techniques. Don't just take my word for it, see What People Say About Us at www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/.
The Sleight Of Mind Set day is not just about learning the Mind Magic tricks, (these are quick to learn, but create much to be thought about) what makes it thrilling is what you can build with them for yourself. You can build pieces into your delivery, making this very personal to you. You can take these pieces and use them to ignite a powerful response in others, engaging and involving them in your ideas and what you do. Our focus is around Showing Not Telling which is about illuminating and animating your ideas and concepts. This contributes greatly to leaving people delighted, energized, interested and wanting more.
To find out more about Mind Magic and its uses, please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/
THE POWER OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
The approach we take is what we call Psychological Artistry and this involves using a blend of psychology, mind magic (or mentalism), personal development and smart thinking ideas. By tapping into people's imagination, curiosity and desire for mystery we can engage people in all different areas. By adding in psychological approaches, this is strengthened. I appreciate that by its very nature, it is not a traditional approach but that is where its power lies.
Psychological Artistry is about blending the world of art and psychology. It's about showing the beautiful flaws in our thinking and how we can use them. It's about magnifying how we all think and giving you the opportunity to change it.
A couple of interesting examples the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please see www.mindsways.com/SMS for these and other incredible videos. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry.
STANDING OUT FROM THE CROWD - CREATING YOUR DIFFERENCE
This learning works on a number of levels. On the workshops, we look at what Mind Magic reveals about how we think, act and behave. This allows us to understand the environment we're in.
Whilst doing this, we're also tapping into the fact that performing and illustrating illusions holds a deep fascination for people. This is what allows us to stand out from the crowd. Below are a few quotes of what people have said about the workshop:
"A truly inspiring experience is how I'd best describe the Sleight of Mind Set workshop."
"I came away with lots of ideas to create drama and interest in my training delivery."
"The whole group laughed many times and were absolutely fascinated by each technique."
BEING DIFFERENT - NO, REALLY DIFFERENT
This programme is good for anyone looking for something different and to stimulate new styles of thinking. The feedback has definitely been that it has satisfied the thirst for new ideas whilst ticking all of the edutrainment boxes. This programme is for you if you are interested in any of the following:
Human Behaviour & Psychology
Influence & Persuasion
How We Think
Magic & Magicians
New Experiences
Learning & Teaching
Framing Your Ideas
The day is all about
Exploring the art of possibility
Stimulating creativity and innovation
Transforming personal and professional life
Tapping into your imagination
On the personal development level, it is about transforming
Self esteem
Self confidence
Self awareness
Self motivation
for yourself and others. Overall it acts a catalyst for your future development.
It is intended for people who are curious, want to improve how they connect, express and communicate with others. Overall, it is about adding new skills to you and being able to apply the techniques and ideas from Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic to maximise what you do.
MindSways sessions are based on a unique blend of magic, science, psychological artistry, design and smart thinking. All of this allows you to work with individuals, groups and organisations in an original and dynamic way. It also means that by being trained in these psychological subtleties and powerful techniques, you can add a unique twist to your activities.
Our success in life depends critically on two things; our capacity for insight into our own mental world and that of other people. One of the benefits of learning and applying Mind Magic and psychological artistry is that it puts our thinking habits and styles back on our radar. This is only one aspect of the many benefits that people find when they have worked with us over the past few months. For what others have said please take a look at www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/

NEUROMAGIC AND THE TRICKS OF THE MIND
As a psychologist and Psychological Artist, I have been fascinated by how the principles used in magic and mind magic in particular can reveal so much about our human nature and behaviour. Now, neuromagic as well as psychology is learning from Mind Magic.
Neuromagic is brand new field of neuroscience that is being used to understand how magic, affects and changes how we see the world. This in turn informs how we think and what we believe about ourselves and others. For just one example of how magic is being used with neuroscience to study change blindness, go to mindsways.com/SMS#Neuromagic
As is often pointed out in portrayals of Sherlock Holmes; "we see but do not observe". Our cognitive biases constantly distort and filter how we think. We are always under the control of stereotyping, confirmational bias, default effects and much more, basically as magicians know; "we cannot believe what we see but we see what we believe"
The good news is that we do not need to be at the mercy of these thinking fallacies. As neuroscience shows us: we can change. Some go as far as to say that we actually have infinite plasticity, in other words, there is no limit to how much we can change ourselves or how we think.
The Sleight of Mind Set workshops use the principle that "all is not as it appears" to be able to illustrate this and how we see the world. This in turn affects how we act, think and behave, just as neuromagic shows us. The SNT kit has the tools built within it to help us change by making use of the infinite plasticity we all have and to do so with entertaining and enlightening ways. You get your own SNT kit to take away with you on the day. To see more, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/
APPLIED ADVANTAGE
A theme of the day is how you can use these ideas and techniques to add practical value to your delivery through:
Using MMI's (Multiple Moments of Interest, Interaction & Insight)
Connecting emotionally and being relevant (emotional triggers)
Being memorable (giving people something novel to talk about)
Creating attraction (and making you stand out)
Increasing your delivery vocabulary
Bridging the innovation gap
Personal Touch delivery
For more information on the themes of the day, please see mindsways.com/SMS/
TAPPING INTO THE POPULARITY
Mind Magic holds an enduring allure and popularity by bringing together entertainment, mystery and the paranormal. Magic is never far out of the popular sphere with Derren Brown currently filling theatres across the country with his 'Infamous' tour and drawing large TV audiences.
This is also shown by the new blockbuster film; Now You See Me. The film is based on the premise of what if magic were real. Starring Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg and Isla Fisher, the film shows the hold that magic has over our imagination. To see more about the film, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/#NowYouSeeMe.
Our aim is to make day informative, entertaining and practical for you. People have attended for many reasons including:
Curiosity
Learning something new
Interest in how the mind works
Adding variety to enliven their presentations
New and different approaches
Adding to their business practices
An increased reputation
A channel for their passion and fascination
Wider perspectives and experiences
The real power of Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry lies not with just the tricks, but the effect that the delivery of the tricks have on people. By doing this, you are tapping into the emotions of mystery combined with the power of the Personal Touch.
On the workshops and in the SNT kit, we give you the tricks, however, learning to use them with what you do is where the real power lies. This is when the real magic happens, in the theatre of the minds. For more on this, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/
THEATRE OF THE MIND
On the workshop we uncover tricks, look at making a trick into an effect and making the effect into a piece that works for you. The three levels we work on are:
Effect of a trick - "how did you do that?"
Analysis of a trick - "why does this trick work? Why did the effect happen?"
Practicality of a trick - "how you can use the tricks for myself?"
This involves using a combination of Psychology, Neuroscience, Smart Thinking and the ideas, tools and techniques from Mind Magic. For more on this, please see mindsways.com/SMS/
EXAMPLES OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
A couple of interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please take a look here or visit mindsways.com/SMS#PsychologicalArtistry. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry.
WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE WORKSHOP?

Mind Magic holds an enduring allure and popularity by bringing together entertainment, mystery and the paranormal. Magic is never far out of the popular sphere with Derren Brown currently filling theatres across the country with his 'Infamous' tour and drawing large TV audiences.
This is also shown by the new blockbuster film; Now You See Me. The film is based on the premise of what if magic were real. Starring Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg and Isla Fisher, the film shows the hold that magic has over our imagination. To see more about the film, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/#NowYouSeeMe.
Our aim is to make day informative, entertaining and practical for you. People have attended for many reasons including:
Curiosity
Learning something new
Interest in how the mind works
Adding variety to enliven their presentations
New and different approaches
Adding to their business practices
An increased reputation
A channel for their passion and fascination
Wider perspectives and experiences
The real power of Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry lies not with just the tricks, but the effect that the delivery of the tricks have on people. By doing this, you are tapping into the emotions of mystery combined with the power of the Personal Touch.
On the workshops and in the SNT kit, we give you the tricks, however, learning to use them with what you do is where the real power lies. This is when the real magic happens, in the theatre of the minds. For more on this, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/
THEATRE OF THE MIND
On the workshop we uncover tricks, look at making a trick into an effect and making the effect into a piece that works for you. The three levels we work on are:
Effect of a trick - "how did you do that?"
Analysis of a trick - "why does this trick work? Why did the effect happen?"
Practicality of a trick - "how you can use the tricks for myself?"
This involves using a combination of Psychology, Neuroscience, Smart Thinking and the ideas, tools and techniques from Mind Magic. For more on this, please see mindsways.com/SMS/
EXAMPLES OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
A couple of interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please take a look here or visit mindsways.com/SMS#PsychologicalArtistry. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry.
WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE WORKSHOP?
The feedback from the workshops have been extremely positive, with people from recent workshops saying things like:
"It really was most enjoyable and enlightening"
"The most unique training day I have ever been on"
"My target was to get 3 things to add to my training, I had 11 by lunchtime"

"Thanks to you both for a challenging, stimulating and enjoyable day"
"I've had plenty of thoughts about how some of the approaches used might be incorporated into several areas of my work"

The events have been attended and proved to be relevant to people from a wide range of backgrounds including entrepreneurs, business consultants, health professionals, coaches of life, performance and sports, therapists, hypnotherapists, trainers etc.
This is an unorthodox approach to understanding human behaviour, illustrating and promoting our messages, and this is where the real power lies. As Marty Neumeier says in ZAG " Be Different - NO Really Different". For more on what people say, please see mindsways.com/what-people-say/

SEEING THROUGH ILLUSIONS NEWSLETTERIs this email not displaying correctly?View it in your browser.
Hi,
At Mindsways, we combine how the Mind is Swayed or influenced with how the Mind works its Ways. This involves using a combination of Psychology, Neuroscience, Smart Thinking and the ideas, tools and techniques from Mind Magic, I call this Psychological Artistry.
It is this that makes the Sleight of Mind Set Workshops so unique, that will inspire you to stretch your own thinking and have lead to people saying: "A great course, with plenty to think about" and " Fantastic day... a great eye opener!"
These worskhops are all being run around the country, in:
Glasgow - 2nd July 2013
London - 9th July 2013
Birmingham - 16th July 2013
Doncaster - 13th September 2013
Bath - 21st September 2013

For more information on the day, please see mindsways.com/SMS/ and for a brochure of what the day is about, please look at mindsways.com/SMS/.
Over the past 18 Months I have been running these Sleight of Mind Set Workshops throughout the country, and I am really pleased with the feedback, it has been tremendous, please don't just take my word for it, (I am after all biased) please see what people have said by going to mindsways.com/what-people-say/
For over twenty five years I have seen how magic can add value to delivery. There are a lot of unknown techniques out there, many of them psychological, that engages and attracts people. The Sleight of Mind Set workshop is all about how you can tap into this rich stream of ideas and "Mind Magic's" enduring popularity. The day looks at two paths running together, one learning the tricks and effects, the other why and how they add value to us.
They start at 10:00 a.m. and finish at 4:30 p.m. For more information about the workshops, please got to mindsways.com/SMS/
TAPPING INTO ENDURING POPULARITY
Mind Magic holds an enduring allure and popularity by bringing together entertainment, mystery and the paranormal. Magic is never far out of the popular sphere with Derren Brown currently filling seats across the country with his 'Infamous' tour and drawing large audiences.
This is also shown by Now You See Me, which is based on the premise of 'what if magic were real'. Starring Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg and Isla Fisher, it shows the hold that magic has over our imagination. To see the trailer and more, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/.
Our aim is to make the day informative, entertaining and practical for you. People have attended for many reasons including:
Curiosity
Learning something new
Interest in how the mind works
Adding variety to enliven their presentations
New and different approaches
Adding to their business practices
An increased reputation
A channel for their passion and fascination
Wider perspectives and experiences
The real power of Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry lies not with just the tricks, but the effect that the delivery of the tricks have on people. By doing this, you are tapping into the emotions of mystery combined with the power of the Personal Touch.
On the workshops and in the SNT kit, we give you the tricks, however, learning to use them with what you do is where the real power lies. This is when the real magic happens, in the minds of others. For more on the tricks, effects and pieces on the workshops, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/
PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY IN ACTION
A few examples of these tricks which make up part of the day are the "McGurk Effect" and Richard Wiseman's "Incredible Colour Changing Card Trick". These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry. By showing that all is not as it appears, these videos illustrate in a very visual manner that we cannot believe what we see, but we see what we believe. It is this and many other techniques that we train you in on the day. To watch these fascinating videos, please go to mindsways.com/SMS.
GAINING APPLIED ADVANTAGE
A theme of the day is how you can use these ideas and techniques to add practical value to your delivery through:
Using MMI's (Multiple Moments of Interest, Interaction & Insight)
Connecting emotionally and being relevant (emotional triggers)
Being memorable (giving people something novel to talk about)
Creating attraction (and making you stand out)
Increasing your delivery vocabulary
Bridging the innovation gap
Personal Touch delivery
WHAT DO YOU GET ON THE WORKSHOPS?
Within this day, you find ideas and techniques that you can use to enhance, enliven and enrich your delivery. All of these will be demonstrated and explained with practical advice on their use in the workshop. The day will use both the Show, Not Tell kit and the Sleight of Mind Set pack.

Hi,
The Sleight of Mind Set Workshops are one day workshops all about learning and applying Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic ideas and techniques. They are being held around the country, in:
London - 9th July 2013
Birmingham - 16th July 2013
Doncaster - 13th September 2013
Bath - 21st September 2013
Glasgow - 8th October 2013
Thinking Outside The Box - Or Clinging to the Lid
The Power of Psychological Artistry
Standing Out from the Crowd - Creating Your Difference
Being Different - No, Really Different
What You Get On The Workshops?
What Do People Say About The Workshops?
Register Your Place
For more information on the day, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/ and for a brochure of what the day is about, please look at www.mindsways.com/SMS/.
Over the past 18 Months I have been running these Sleight of Mind Set Workshops throughout the country, and I am really pleased with the feedback, it has been tremendous, please don't just take my word for it, (I am after all biased) please see what people have said by going to www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/
For over twenty five years I have seen how magic can add value to delivery. There are a lot of unknown techniques out there, many of them psychological, that engages and attracts people. The Sleight of Mind Set workshop is all about how you can tap into this rich stream of ideas and "Mind Magic's" enduring popularity. The day looks at two paths running together, one learning the tricks and effects, the other why and how they add value to us.
They start at 10:00 a.m. and finish at 4:30 p.m. For more information about the workshops, please got to www.mindsways.com/SMS/
THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX - OR CLINGING TO THE LID
Many people claim that the answers to creativity, standing out from the crowd and finding solutions to problems is thinking outside the box. Although, I see many people who cling ferociously on to the lid. Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic, as well as the tools and techniques contained within them are definitely off the lid. For more, see the Sleight Of Mind Set page at www.mindsways.com/SMS/Explaining what you can achieve with these tools is wonderful. For me, I find it deeply rewarding when I see and the results that have been created using these tools and techniques. Don't just take my word for it, see What People Say About Us at www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/.
The Sleight Of Mind Set day is not just about learning the Mind Magic tricks, (these are quick to learn, but create much to be thought about) what makes it thrilling is what you can build with them for yourself. You can build pieces into your delivery, making this very personal to you. You can take these pieces and use them to ignite a powerful response in others, engaging and involving them in your ideas and what you do. Our focus is around Showing Not Telling which is about illuminating and animating your ideas and concepts. This contributes greatly to leaving people delighted, energized, interested and wanting more.
To find out more about Mind Magic and its uses, please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/
THE POWER OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
The approach we take is what we call Psychological Artistry and this involves using a blend of psychology, mind magic (or mentalism), personal development and smart thinking ideas. By tapping into people's imagination, curiosity and desire for mystery we can engage people in all different areas. By adding in psychological approaches, this is strengthened. I appreciate that by its very nature, it is not a traditional approach but that is where its power lies.
Psychological Artistry is about blending the world of art and psychology. It's about showing the beautiful flaws in our thinking and how we can use them. It's about magnifying how we all think and giving you the opportunity to change it.
A couple of interesting examples the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please see www.mindsways.com/SMS for these and other incredible videos. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry.
STANDING OUT FROM THE CROWD - CREATING YOUR DIFFERENCE
This learning works on a number of levels. On the workshops, we look at what Mind Magic reveals about how we think, act and behave. This allows us to understand the environment we're in.
Whilst doing this, we're also tapping into the fact that performing and illustrating illusions holds a deep fascination for people. This is what allows us to stand out from the crowd. Below are a few quotes of what people have said about the workshop:
"A truly inspiring experience is how I'd best describe the Sleight of Mind Set workshop."
"I came away with lots of ideas to create drama and interest in my training delivery."
"The whole group laughed many times and were absolutely fascinated by each technique."
BEING DIFFERENT - NO, REALLY DIFFERENT
This programme is good for anyone looking for something different and to stimulate new styles of thinking. The feedback has definitely been that it has satisfied the thirst for new ideas whilst ticking all of the edutrainment boxes. This programme is for you if you are interested in any of the following:
Human Behaviour & Psychology
Influence & Persuasion
How We Think
Magic & Magicians
New Experiences
Learning & Teaching
Framing Your Ideas
The day is all about
Exploring the art of possibility
Stimulating creativity and innovation
Transforming personal and professional life
Tapping into your imagination
On the personal development level, it is about transforming
Self esteem
Self confidence
Self awareness
Self motivation
for yourself and others. Overall it acts a catalyst for your future development.
It is intended for people who are curious, want to improve how they connect, express and communicate with others. Overall, it is about adding new skills to you and being able to apply the techniques and ideas from Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic to maximise what you do.
MindSways sessions are based on a unique blend of magic, science, psychological artistry, design and smart thinking. All of this allows you to work with individuals, groups and organisations in an original and dynamic way. It also means that by being trained in these psychological subtleties and powerful techniques, you can add a unique twist to your activities.
Our success in life depends critically on two things; our capacity for insight into our own mental world and that of other people. One of the benefits of learning and applying Mind Magic and psychological artistry is that it puts our thinking habits and styles back on our radar. This is only one aspect of the many benefits that people find when they have worked with us over the past few months. For what others have said please take a look at www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/

The Neil Howard stages are fast becoming an autumn tradition at Oulton with some very interesting entries to jog memories, and very enthusiastically driiven , with a great atmosphere when darkness descends over the Cheshire countryside and the cars' lights pierce the darkness.
A great day's motorsport, with myself and mrs snowman breaking off from the spectating to thoroughly enjoy ourselves driving a GT86 on Oulton's rally school stages, and the day was rounded off by a bonfire and an excellent fireworks display.
For those wishing to identify the cars the entry list for the rally can be found here www.rallies.info/res.php?e=196&o=p&t=999&r=e&... and the results here www.rallies.info/res.php?e=196&o=p&t=999&r=o&...

The word “Dabbawalla” translates to dabba = lunch box, and walla = man or the 'lunch box man'. It is a 125 year old trade formed by a unique and incredible network of 5,000 men with the complex task of delivering 200,000 home made lunches each day from suburban homes to downtown offices in the city of Mumbai... all within a period of approximately 3 hours! That's about 65 million 'dabbas' a year with almost no mistakes!
Dabbawallas are largely illiterate rural workers who use nothing more than 3 - 4 symbols crudely painted on their dabbas to create an unparalleled food supply chain by using their remarkable intuition, teamwork and values in contrast to the very sophisticated computerized decision making telecommunication systems costing million of dollars in the West today.
Here's how the system works:
The first dabbawalla picks up the dabba from a home and takes it to the nearest railway station.
The second dabbawalla sorts out the dabbas at the railway station according to destination and puts them in the luggage carriage.
The third one travels with the dabbas to the railway stations nearest to the destinations.
The fourth one picks up dabbas from the railway station and drops them to each individuals office.
The process is reversed in the evenings with each dabba completing a distance of 60 - 70 kms and changing hands 8 times!
Customers pay about $5/mth for this service.
Impressed? This will amaze you even further!
A few years ago, US business magazine Forbes gave Mumbai's dabbawallas a Six Sigma performance rating, or a 99.999999 percentage of correctness -- which means one error in six million transactions. Six Sigma is a process that helps organizations focus on delivering near-perfect products and services. If you use Six Sigma you can measure how many defects there are in a process and can systematically figure out how to eliminate them and try and achieve zero-defect status.

Hi,
Further to our recent emails, we have had a number of questions asked about what we do. Please see below for our answers to these.WHAT WORKSHOPS DO YOU DO?
We do a number of different themed workshops. Currently we are running two open workshops, the Sleight of Mind Set and The Fascination. See mindsways.com/SMS and mindsways.com/the-fascinationfor more on each of these.
They are both based on learning and applying Psychological Artistry to what you do. Each workshop is standalone and has different material in them. Both workshops come complete with supporting materials, kits, eBooks and online videos. The Sleight of Mind Set has the SNT Kit (Show Not Tell) and SMS pack (Sleight of Mind Set) and The Fascination has TFP (The Fascination Pack). For more information in what is contained in these, see mindsways.com/SNT, mindsways.com/SMS and mindsways.com/TFPrespectively.
We also run these in house.
DO YOU TEACH ME THE TRICKS?
Yes, although we prefer to call them effects. On the workshops, we talk about the difference between "tricks", "effects" and "pieces", and talk about how you can make tricks into effects and ultimately, use them as pieces of your delivery. You will be taught the effects and the how to use them on the workshops.
There are different effects taught on the Sleight of Mind Set and on The Fascination. For example, on the Sleight of Mind Set, you will taught to be able to appear to float a note in front of people, or on The Fascination, you will be taught how to bend a coin in someone else's hand.
To see more information on what is a available on each workshop, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/and mindsways.com/the-fascination/
WHAT'S IN THE KITS? DO I HAVE TO PAY EXTRA FOR THEM?
If you are booked on to programme, then no. The Sleight of Mind Set has the material that allows you to do the effects taught on the workshop. The SNT kit and The Fascination Pack are tools and resources all on their own. Outside of the courses, the SNT kit costs £49.99 and The Fascination pack is on special, pre-order discount of £39.99.

You can use this anywhere. To see how it's already been used, you can look at the business page (at mindsways.com/business), the community page (at mindsways.com/community) and the therapy and coaching page (at mindsways.com/therapy-and-coaching)

The Sleight of Mind Set workshops are being held across the UK in Birmingham, Bath, Glasgow, Scunthorpe. The Fascination Workshops are also being held around the UK in London, Birmingham and Bath.
WHAT ARE THE TIMES AND DATES OF THE WORKSHOPS?
All of the workshops start at 10:00 a.m. and aim to finish about 4:30 p.m. The dates for the Sleight of Mind Set Workshops are the following:

Bath: 20th March (Now fully booked)

The dates for The Fascination are:
London: 2nd April
Bath: 10th April
Birmingham: 16th April
DO I NEED PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE?
No, not at all. The open workshops take every one through the process step by step. The approach we take is closer to Mind Magic and modern mentalism (Derren Brown etc.) rather than traditional conjuring (Paul Daniels etc.) Previous participants have found the effects practical for what they do. For more on this, please go to mindsways.com/about/what-people-say
ARE THE COURSES ACCREDITED?
No. This is because they're based on non-traditional approaches, uncommon knowledge from magic and are delivered flexibly, based on the people who are attending. It's this flexible and non-traditional approach that creates its strength.
IS THERE A DRESS CODE?
No, we take an informal approach where everyone is comfortable and have fun.
IS LUNCH PROVIDED?
No, lunch is not provided by us. All of the venues, however, are located near shops and town centres. We put aside at least an hour for lunch on the day and provide tea and coffee.
DO I NEED TO BRING A NOTEBOOK?
This depends on your personal preference. We do recommend brining a bottle of water and possibly business cards, as some people have found the workshops to be a useful networking oppourtunity. We provide:
Either the SNT kit or The Fascination Pack depending on which programme you attend
A 2-hour video with instructions for the kits
Presentation slides
Notes on the effects you will learn
Follow up opportunities
Systems for continual development
Post-workshop support, including email and phone access
DO YOU DO THIS IN-HOUSE?
Yes, we offer bespoke training to companies and organisations that are dedicated to training and developing their staff at any level. For more information on this, please get in touch using contact@mindsways.com
HOW DO I BOOK ON THE WORKSHOP?
You can book on the workshop by going to mindsways.com/SMS or mindsways.com/the-fascination and using the options at the bottom. You can use PayPal if you are already registered, or use a credit or debit card to pay. There are other alternatives available, you can use the contact button at the bottom of the web page to do this as well.
WHAT MAKES THIS SO DIFFERENT?
The mix of over a hundred years of mind magic tradition, psychology, neuroscience, design and smart thinking makes the materials and approach available extremely rare. Mind magic still maintains its pull factor and has always intrigued and fascinated. It attracts large theatres of people and huge TV audiences. We bring both personal and practical experience in all of these areas.

The Neil Howard stages are fast becoming an autumn tradition at Oulton with some very interesting entries to jog memories, and very enthusiastically driiven , with a great atmosphere when darkness descends over the Cheshire countryside and the cars' lights pierce the darkness.
A great day's motorsport, with myself and mrs snowman breaking off from the spectating to thoroughly enjoy ourselves driving a GT86 on Oulton's rally school stages, and the day was rounded off by a bonfire and an excellent fireworks display.
For those wishing to identify the cars the entry list for the rally can be found here www.rallies.info/res.php?e=196&o=p&t=999&r=e&... and the results here www.rallies.info/res.php?e=196&o=p&t=999&r=o&...
A lot of the upcoming Batman movie, The Dark Knight, was shot in Chicago. A couple months ago I volunteered to be an extra for part of a large parade scene shot on LaSalle street.
Earlier today The Dark Knight trailer was released on atasteforthetheatrical.com. I downloaded a high-res copy in the teeny-tiny chance I'd find myself and lo-and-behold I'm 99.999999% sure I did. It's super, super small and I'd never assume it was me if it weren't for a few small details I remembered.
For this particular shot Heather, a tall, blond haired girl I met at the shoot, can be partially seen to my left. I also distinctly recall standing by an alley way right next to a light post and a Kinkos to our left a few feet away.
There's a good chance we'll be in other parts of the scene but we'll probably have to wait for the High-Def DVD to dissect and know for sure.

SEEING THROUGH ILLUSIONSIs this email not displaying correctly?View it in your browser.
Hi,
Further to our recent emails, we have had a number of questions asked about what we do. Please see below for our answers to these.WHAT WORKSHOPS DO YOU DO?
We do a number of different themed workshops. Currently we are running two open workshops, the Sleight of Mind Set and The Fascination. See mindsways.com/SMS and mindsways.com/the-fascinationfor more on each of these.
They are both based on learning and applying Psychological Artistry to what you do. Each workshop is standalone and has different material in them. Both workshops come complete with supporting materials, kits, eBooks and online videos. The Sleight of Mind Set has the SNT Kit (Show Not Tell) and SMS pack (Sleight of Mind Set) and The Fascination has TFP (The Fascination Pack). For more information in what is contained in these, see mindsways.com/SNT, mindsways.com/SMS and mindsways.com/TFPrespectively.
We also run these in house.
DO YOU TEACH ME THE TRICKS?
Yes, although we prefer to call them effects. On the workshops, we talk about the difference between "tricks", "effects" and "pieces", and talk about how you can make tricks into effects and ultimately, use them as pieces of your delivery. You will be taught the effects and the how to use them on the workshops.
There are different effects taught on the Sleight of Mind Set and on The Fascination. For example, on the Sleight of Mind Set, you will taught to be able to appear to float a note in front of people, or on The Fascination, you will be taught how to bend a coin in someone else's hand.
To see more information on what is a available on each workshop, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/and mindsways.com/the-fascination/
WHAT'S IN THE KITS? DO I HAVE TO PAY EXTRA FOR THEM?
If you are booked on to programme, then no. The Sleight of Mind Set has the material that allows you to do the effects taught on the workshop. The SNT kit and The Fascination Pack are tools and resources all on their own. Outside of the courses, the SNT kit costs £49.99 and The Fascination pack is on special, pre-order discount of £39.99. For full details, please go to mindsways.com/SNT/ and mindsways.com/TFP.
WHAT IS PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY?
Psychological Artistry is an approach to being able to show, illustrate and demonstrate human behaviour through using a combination of Mind Magic and psychology. To see examples of this look at mindsways.com/SMS#PsychologicalArtistry and mindsways.com/the-fascination#PsychologicalTED
WHERE CAN I USE THIS?
You can use this anywhere. To see how it's already been used, you can look at the business page (at mindsways.com/business), the community page (at mindsways.com/community) and the therapy and coaching page (at mindsways.com/therapy-and-coaching)
WHERE ARE THE WORKSHOPS?
The Sleight of Mind Set workshops are being held across the UK in Birmingham, Bath, Glasgow, Scunthorpe. The Fascination Workshops are also being held around the UK in London, Birmingham and Bath.
WHAT ARE THE TIMES AND DATES OF THE WORKSHOPS?
All of the workshops start at 10:00 a.m. and aim to finish about 4:30 p.m. The dates for the Sleight of Mind Set Workshops are the following:
Glasgow: 5th March
Birmingham: 12th March
Bath: 20th March (Now fully booked)
Scunthorpe: 29th March
The dates for The Fascination are:
London: 2nd April
Bath: 10th April
Birmingham: 16th April
DO I NEED PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE?
No, not at all. The open workshops take every one through the process step by step. The approach we take is closer to Mind Magic and modern mentalism (Derren Brown etc.) rather than traditional conjuring (Paul Daniels etc.) Previous participants have found the effects practical for what they do. For more on this, please go to mindsways.com/about/what-people-say
ARE THE COURSES ACCREDITED?
No. This is because they're based on non-traditional approaches, uncommon knowledge from magic and are delivered flexibly, based on the people who are attending. It's this flexible and non-traditional approach that creates its strength.
IS THERE A DRESS CODE?
No, we take an informal approach where everyone is comfortable and have fun.
IS LUNCH PROVIDED?
No, lunch is not provided by us. All of the venues, however, are located near shops and town centres. We put aside at least an hour for lunch on the day and provide tea and coffee.
DO I NEED TO BRING A NOTEBOOK?
This depends on your personal preference. We do recommend brining a bottle of water and possibly business cards, as some people have found the workshops to be a useful networking oppourtunity. We provide:
Either the SNT kit or The Fascination Pack depending on which programme you attend
A 2-hour video with instructions for the kits
Presentation slides
Notes on the effects you will learn
Follow up opportunities
Systems for continual development
Post-workshop support, including email and phone access
DO YOU DO THIS IN-HOUSE?
Yes, we offer bespoke training to companies and organisations that are dedicated to training and developing their staff at any level. For more information on this, please get in touch using contact@mindsways.com
HOW DO I BOOK ON THE WORKSHOP?
You can book on the workshop by going to mindsways.com/SMS or mindsways.com/the-fascination and using the options at the bottom. You can use PayPal if you are already registered, or use a credit or debit card to pay. There are other alternatives available, you can use the contact button at the bottom of the web page to do this as well.
WHAT MAKES THIS SO DIFFERENT?
The mix of over a hundred years of mind magic tradition, psychology, neuroscience, design and smart thinking makes the materials and approach available extremely rare. Mind magic still maintains its pull factor and has always intrigued and fascinated. It attracts large theatres of people and huge TV audiences. We bring both personal and practical experience in all of these areas.

During the workshops, you will experience the effects of creating extraordinary moments for people, tap into your potential for creating surprise, mystery and the unexpected and take away the tools to enhance your identity and moments of emotional engagement.

THE SHAPE OF S.U.C.C.E.S.
An enlightening model that I've used and has been used in delivering workshops, in marketing and advertising and with communications experts is called The Shape of S.U.C.C.E.S. All effective messages are shaped by being:
Straightforward
Unexpected & Surprise
Credible
Concrete
Emotional
Stories
At the heart of Mind Magic lies the potent combination of the unexpected and surprising. Every trick we teach you revolves around you performing the impossible. Mind Magic, in line with the current trend of placing a high value on Personal Touch, allows you to engage with people through using face-to-face and physical means, providing a very real and concrete experience for them. Doing this lets you tell stories, leverage emotions, establish yourself as credible and put your message across in a straightforward, interesting and entertaining manner.
To see other benefits of using Mind Magic with what you do, visit www.mindsways.com/SMS/
YOU IN YOUR FUTURE
The future is neither completely predictable nor enitrely random, but your future is in your hands. The future of presenting, training, teaching, communicating, creative thinking and business is based on the shattering of traditions and built upon the shards of what remains. To do this, novelty, innovation, imagination and the ability to embrace what is truly different is what's needed. Novelty is the key, and for many people who have previously attended the Sleight of Mind Set workshops, they have certainly found a source of it. This leads us to ask three significant questions;
What's your source of surprise?
How do you 'rock the boat'?
Where do you get unexpected influences from?
The coming together of these three answers will dictate how well prepared you are for the future. Mind Magic certainly acts to generate a blend of what's new, what's a positive force of disruption and what can be a fountain of extraordinary influences.
For more on how Mind Magic can affect your future, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/
USING YOUR ILLUSIONS
Over the past 2 years, I have been running courses around the U.K. and found that a number of people from a wide range of background, including teachers, therapists, coaches, business leaders, scientists, trainers etc. have found Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry to help:
engage with audiences
a source of fresh ideas for business and delivery
add to presenting abilities and skills
understanding psychological illusions
add mystery and the unexpected to dry presentations
create emotional connections
add visual impact and vitality
use personal touch
create extraordinary moments
show the power of perspective
unleashing creative forces
reframing ideas
fuels imagination
In his astonishing TED talk, Beau Lotto demonstrates the power of visual illusions to the world. By combining the fascinating effect that illusions have on an audience with meaningful demonstrations of how these can be used to change the world and create beautiful pieces of art, Lotto also explores why we can't believe what we see, but we see what we believe.
To sum up his message and why illusions hold such meaning for us, he says: "The brain didn't evolve to see the world as it is. We can't. Instead, the brain has evolved to see the world the way it was useful to see it in the past." By this he means that we do not experience what is really going on outside of our heads, but we experience what we have learned expect. To see this video and others which explore this fascinating subject, please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/#PsychologicalArtistry
THE POWER OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
The approach we take is what we call Psychological Artistry and involves using a blend of psychology, mind magic (or mentalism), personal development and smart thinking ideas. By tapping into people's imagination, curiosity and desire for mystery we can engage people in all different areas. By adding in psychological approaches, this is strengthened. I appreciate that by its very nature, it is not a traditional approach but that is where its power lies.
Psychological Artistry is about combining the world of art and psychology. It's about showing the beautiful flaws in our thinking and how we can use them. It's about magnifying how we all think and giving you the opportunity to change it. A couple of interesting examples the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry. I would love to know what you think.
Please see www.mindsways.com/SMS for these and other incredible videos. For more about Psyhcological Artistry and our approach, please see www.mindsways.com/about/
