Hi,

On the Sleight of Mind Set day we break the spell by not only teaching you the tricks and illusions but go behind the curtain and revealing the psychology of the methods. 

This is where the real power lies, by giving you the recipe for turning these tricks into effects that work for you.  My goal of the day is to share with you many of the tools, techniques and ideas that have entertained and mystified people over the past 100 years.  

These ideas, tools and techniques are not just restricted to being used to deliver Mind Magic, they can be applied across other areas too. They allow you to:-

Exude your sense of fun

Inspire others with your ideas

Evidence your passion and empathy

Standout and apart from the crowd

Add value to others

Create curiosity and a buzz

Plant seeds of future conversations

Take up an authoritative stance

Provide a memorable experience

Forget neutrality; we have to make an impact. Your message has no value unless it makes an impact.  We have to show agility in how we think, in cognitive fitness terms, we have to show mental acuity. By making an impact and showing mental acuity you make an emotional connection you are stirring the mirror neurons in others minds.

The Sleight of Mind Set Workshops are being held around the country in Doncaster - 13th September 2013, Bath - 21st September 2013, London - 1st October 2013, Glasgow - 8th October 2013 and Birmingham - 15th October 2013. For more information, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/

RAISE YOUR NOVELTY LEVEL

Regardless of your current situation you are aware that you have a lot more potential.  A way forward that comes from the neuroscience of leadership is to introduce something novel into your mix, this is precisely what the SMS day is all about.  The overall idea is that by its very nature, learning Mind Magic is novel to many people, as are the tools and techniques used in it.  It is about creating a new perspective, seeing your world from a different angle and raising your level through embracing novelty.

Engaging with and using Mind Magic works on many levels for you.  It is novel and entertaining, it attracts and holds people's attention. You will witness the attention that floating a borrowed note in front of people gives you.  It is also about firing and stirring the mirror neurons whilst fufilling a need for:

 

Control

Status - Leadership

Showing Special Powers

Mystery and the unexplained

Emotional Connection with others

To see some of this in action please look at these videos at www.mindsways.com/SMS/

IT'S ALL SMOKE AND MIRROR NEURONS

Enter the magician: A saying that has long been associated with magicians is that it is all done with smoke and mirrors. Well, there is obviously a bit of truth in that, but Mind Magic is done through Mirror Neurons. In 1992 an Italian scientist called Giacomo Rizzolatti came across and articulated the concept of Mirror Neurons, the general idea  being that "mirror neurons" become active in our brain by observing (or even reading) about other people's behaviours.  The brain actually responds as if we were doing the observed behaviour.

To see more on this, please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/

WHO STILL BELIEVES IN MAGIC?

You may think that you don't believe in magic in any way or form., but if we take a closer look at ourselves, we are surrounded by ritual, superstitions and the belief in invisible forces.  I have sat with government officers, scientists, CEOs and whole mixture of people, and one phrase quickly shows the magical beliefs that abound: "touch wood".

At its mere mention you can see people desperately looking around for wood.  How many of us have lucky charms, rituals we go through before exams, interviews, meetings etc. ? As people, we want to believe that there is something beyond, that there are invisible forces that impose order in the world. 

There are many reasons that lie behind why we believe weird things. One is that we want to be in control.  In fact the more uncertainty and unpredictable our situations become the more we grope for control. Mind Magic, otherwise known as mentalism, uses the idea that strange things are afoot. For more information on this or anything else in this newsletter, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/

ENTER THE MIND MAGICIAN

We have a deep seated need for status, control and mystery.  The Mind Magician (and mentalists like Derren Brown) are experts at tapping in to and meeting this need, especially as many think it may just be real. Regardless of how many rational explanations are made that it's based on psychology and trickery, our need for control and our beliefs in invisible forces rejects the rational in favour of the emotional.  The mirror neurons are stirring in us and the needs for mystery are met through Mind Magic. This is why Mind Magic has held its popularity over the last 100 years. 

The tools, techniques and ideas accrued are all very clever, some simpler than others but all share this rich tradition.  Some of this tradition is the passing on and teaching of these ideas on days like the SMS. To see more about the rich history and tradition, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/

INFORMATION ALONE IS NOT MOTIVATION

Your message to motivate others has to make an impact and leave an impression.  Otherwise no actions will follow from it.  To do this we have to think carefully about how we get our message across.  In doing this "show me" is more powerful than "tell me".  This is why we focus so much on the Show Not Tell (SNT) philosophy. 

Visual illusions are real-world demonstrations of how our minds work. Because of their subjective nature, illusions are powerful expressions of we fail to match what we see to the real world around us. This is what the SNT kit shows.

The SNT kit is designed to give you a sense and understanding of what is going on beneath the surface, allowing you to grasp the psychology of every illusion. A strong visual illusion makes you;

 

See something that isn't there

Fail to see something that is, or

See something different to what is there

Remember, you can't believe what you see, but you see what you believe. It's easy to imagine that these illusions happen only on pieces of paper, on computer screens or during magic tricks; easy, but wrong.  They're significant in all areas of our lives, affecting;

 

Our Identity (How you see yourself)

Our Aspirations (What you want to do in life)

Our Drives (Why you get out of bed in the morning)

Our Ambitions (Where you want to go)

Our Personality (Who you are)

And our very essence. Illusions, then, play a critical role in your life and in everyone else's. They determine how you act, behave and think.  On the day, you also receive your own copy of the SNT kit, for more information, see www.mindsways.com/SNT/

Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic has at its core the idea of showing, not just telling. Imagine any magic trick where the magician just described what was happening. This also brings to the fore the idea of ensuring Multiple Moments of Interest (MMI's) as part of your message. These are Multiple Moments of:

 

Interest

Interaction

Insight

Imagine then taking this and combing it with ideas from "Thought Leadership" such as:

 

Focus creating clarity

Clarity showing power

Power giving you understanding

Understanding giving  you certainty

Certainty leading to trust

Trust leading to actions

On the Sleight of Mind Set workshop, we use Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic as a means and a prism for looking at these ideas. Please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/ for more.

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. 

Interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect, Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect" and a twist on a classic Fred Astaire routine. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry. Please take a look here or go to 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.

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/

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?

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/  ;

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/

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.  All of these are entertaining, informative, engaging and practical for you to apply to your delivery.

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/  ;

Hi,

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

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

Hi,

On the Sleight of Mind Set day we break the spell by not only teaching you the tricks and illusions but go behind the curtain and revealing the psychology of the methods. 

This is where the real power lies, by giving you the recipe for turning these tricks into effects that work for you.  My goal of the day is to share with you many of the tools, techniques and ideas that have entertained and mystified people over the past 100 years.  

These ideas, tools and techniques are not just restricted to being used to deliver Mind Magic, they can be applied across other areas too. They allow you to:-

By making an impact and showing mental acuity you make an emotional connection you are stirring the mirror neurons in others minds.

The Sleight of Mind Set Workshops are being held around the country in Doncaster - 13th September 2013, Bath - 21st September 2013, London - 1st October 2013, Glasgow - 8th October 2013 and Birmingham - 15th October 2013. For more information, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/

RAISE YOUR NOVELTY LEVEL

Regardless of your current situation you are aware that you have a lot more potential.  A way forward that comes from the neuroscience of leadership is to introduce something novel into your mix, this is precisely what the SMS day is all about.  The overall idea is that by its very nature, learning Mind Magic is novel to many people, as are the tools and techniques used in it.  It is about creating a new perspective, seeing your world from a different angle and raising your level through embracing novelty.

Engaging with and using Mind Magic works on many levels for you.  It is novel and entertaining, it attracts and holds people's attention. You will witness the attention that floating a borrowed note in front of people gives you.  It is also about firing and stirring the mirror neurons whilst fufilling a need for:

 

Control

Status - Leadership

Showing Special Powers

Mystery and the unexplained

Emotional Connection with others

To see some of this in action please look at these videos at www.mindsways.com/SMS/

IT'S ALL SMOKE AND MIRROR NEURONS

Enter the magician: A saying that has long been associated with magicians is that it is all done with smoke and mirrors. Well, there is obviously a bit of truth in that, but Mind Magic is done through Mirror Neurons. In 1992 an Italian scientist called Giacomo Rizzolatti came across and articulated the concept of Mirror Neurons, the general idea  being that "mirror neurons" become active in our brain by observing (or even reading) about other people's behaviours.  The brain actually responds as if we were doing the observed behaviour.

To see more on this, please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/

WHO STILL BELIEVES IN MAGIC?

You may think that you don't believe in magic in any way or form., but if we take a closer look at ourselves, we are surrounded by ritual, superstitions and the belief in invisible forces.  I have sat with government officers, scientists, CEOs and whole mixture of people, and one phrase quickly shows the magical beliefs that abound: "touch wood".

At its mere mention you can see people desperately looking around for wood.  How many of us have lucky charms, rituals we go through before exams, interviews, meetings etc. ? As people, we want to believe that there is something beyond, that there are invisible forces that impose order in the world. 

There are many reasons that lie behind why we believe weird things. One is that we want to be in control.  In fact the more uncertainty and unpredictable our situations become the more we grope for control. Mind Magic, otherwise known as mentalism, uses the idea that strange things are afoot. For more information on this or anything else in this newsletter, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/

ENTER THE MIND MAGICIAN

We have a deep seated need for status, control and mystery.  The Mind Magician (and mentalists like Derren Brown) are experts at tapping in to and meeting this need, especially as many think it may just be real. Regardless of how many rational explanations are made that it's based on psychology and trickery, our need for control and our beliefs in invisible forces rejects the rational in favour of the emotional.  The mirror neurons are stirring in us and the needs for mystery are met through Mind Magic. This is why Mind Magic has held its popularity over the last 100 years. 

The tools, techniques and ideas accrued are all very clever, some simpler than others but all share this rich tradition.  Some of this tradition is the passing on and teaching of these ideas on days like the SMS. To see more about the rich history and tradition, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/

INFORMATION ALONE IS NOT MOTIVATION

Your message to motivate others has to make an impact and leave an impression.  Otherwise no actions will follow from it.  To do this we have to think carefully about how we get our message across.  In doing this "show me" is more powerful than "tell me".  This is why we focus so much on the Show Not Tell (SNT) philosophy. 

Visual illusions are real-world demonstrations of how our minds work. Because of their subjective nature, illusions are powerful expressions of we fail to match what we see to the real world around us. This is what the SNT kit shows.

The SNT kit is designed to give you a sense and understanding of what is going on beneath the surface, allowing you to grasp the psychology of every illusion. A strong visual illusion makes you;

 

See something that isn't there

Fail to see something that is, or

See something different to what is there

Remember, you can't believe what you see, but you see what you believe. It's easy to imagine that these illusions happen only on pieces of paper, on computer screens or during magic tricks; easy, but wrong.  They're significant in all areas of our lives, affecting;

 

Our Identity (How you see yourself)

Our Aspirations (What you want to do in life)

Our Drives (Why you get out of bed in the morning)

Our Ambitions (Where you want to go)

Our Personality (Who you are)

And our very essence. Illusions, then, play a critical role in your life and in everyone else's. They determine how you act, behave and think.  On the day, you also receive your own copy of the SNT kit, for more information, see www.mindsways.com/SNT/

Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic has at its core the idea of showing, not just telling. Imagine any magic trick where the magician just described what was happening. This also brings to the fore the idea of ensuring Multiple Moments of Interest (MMI's) as part of your message. These are Multiple Moments of:

 

Interest

Interaction

Insight

Imagine then taking this and combing it with ideas from "Thought Leadership" such as:

 

Focus creating clarity

Clarity showing power

Power giving you understanding

Understanding giving  you certainty

Certainty leading to trust

Trust leading to actions

On the Sleight of Mind Set workshop, we use Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic as a means and a prism for looking at these ideas. Please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/ for more.

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. 

Interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect, Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect" and a twist on a classic Fred Astaire routine. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry. Please take a look here or go to mindsways.com/SMS/

London - 2nd May 2013

Birmingham - 7th May 2013

Doncaster - 31st May 2013

Bath - 22nd June 2013

Glasgow - 2nd July 2013

 

SNAP, CRACKLE, POP

 

What Do I Get On The Workshops?

 

The Feedback

 

What Is Psychological Artistry?

 

Register Your Place Now

The aim of the day is to

 

Inform

Stimulate thought

Stimulate reflection

Create actions

Get  you to think anew and build anew

For more information and to book your place on the course, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/

SNAP CRACKLE POP

Snap, Crackle, Pop is a mnemonic that I use which captures the essence of the contents of the Sleight of Mind Set workshops. Without going into too much detail, the letters stand for are:

 

Start

Noticing

Alternative

Perceptions

 

Creativity

Repetitive Statement Injury

Applied Advantage

Cognitive Fitness

KAF (Knowledge x Ability x Frequency = Talent)

Leverage

Emotional Engagement

 

Power

Of

Pictures

Each of these on their own are really powerful concepts and ideas, however I have found that by combining them it makes a very potent mix. They each exist independently within the SNT kit and the workshops, to see more about this, please see mindsways.com/SMS/

WHAT DO I GET ON THE WORKSHOPS?

Within this day, you will find more than 20 discrete routines, ideas and techniques (you will be supplied the physical gimmicks etc in the SNT kit and SMS) 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 (each available separately but are included as part of the day. For more information, visit the SNT kit.) All of these 20 items are entertaining, informative, engaging and practical for you to apply to your delivery.

On the Sleight of Mind Set Workshop, you will get:

 

The SMS Pack :- The materials you need to perform the tricks we go through on the day

The SNT Kit :- The Show, Not Tell Kit. For more information on this, please go to mindsways.com/SNT/

The Presentation :- A copy of the presentation we use on the day for your reference

The eBook :- Access to written material on the tricks, including scripts and tips on performance

Follow-up Support :- Email and phone access to the trainers for further training or advice

Using the materials from the SNT and SMS, you will discover a wealth of practical, real world techniques that can be applied to coaching, training, consultancy, presenting, goal setting, business, personal development and therapy.

As well as the delivery of the SNT and SMS, we will explore why we believe what we do, why we believe weird things. The workshop weaves a path through Psychological Artistry, Mind Magic, neuroscience and practical delivery methods.

Innovation and creativity lies at the heart of Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic, so whether you are already actively engaged in using your creative skills or just looking to stimulate and nurture your creativity, you will find practical tools for releasing the spirit of innovation and creativity on the Sleight of Mind Set workshop. To register your place on the Sleight of Mind Set Workshop, please go to mindsways.com/SMS

THE FEEDBACK

The feedback from the workshops have been extremely positive, with people (from last weeks 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!"

"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/WPS/

WHAT IS 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".

SNAP CRACKLE POP

Snap, Crackle, Pop is a mnemonic that I use which captures the essence of the contents of the Sleight of Mind Set workshops. Without going into too much detail, the letters stand for are:

 

Start

Noticing

Alternative

Perceptions

 

Creativity

Repetitive Statement Injury

Applied Advantage

Cognitive Fitness

KAF (Knowledge x Ability x Frequency = Talent)

Leverage

Emotional Engagement

 

Power

Of

Pictures

Each of these on their own are really powerful concepts and ideas, however I have found that by combining them it makes a very potent mix. They each exist independently within the SNT kit and the workshops, to see more about this, please see mindsways.com/SMS/

WHAT DO I GET ON THE WORKSHOPS?

Within this day, you will find more than 20 discrete routines, ideas and techniques (you will be supplied the physical gimmicks etc in the SNT kit and SMS) 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 (each available separately but are included as part of the day. For more information, visit the SNT kit.) All of these 20 items are entertaining, informative, engaging and practical for you to apply to your delivery.

On the Sleight of Mind Set Workshop, you will get:

 

The SMS Pack :- The materials you need to perform the tricks we go through on the day

The SNT Kit :- The Show, Not Tell Kit. For more information on this, please go to mindsways.com/SNT/

The Presentation :- A copy of the presentation we use on the day for your reference

The eBook :- Access to written material on the tricks, including scripts and tips on performance

Follow-up Support :- Email and phone access to the trainers for further training or advice

Using the materials from the SNT and SMS, you will discover a wealth of practical, real world techniques that can be applied to coaching, training, consultancy, presenting, goal setting, business, personal development and therapy.

As well as the delivery of the SNT and SMS, we will explore why we believe what we do, why we believe weird things. The workshop weaves a path through Psychological Artistry, Mind Magic, neuroscience and practical delivery methods.

Innovation and creativity lies at the heart of Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic, so whether you are already actively engaged in using your creative skills or just looking to stimulate and nurture your creativity, you will find practical tools for releasing the spirit of innovation and creativity on the Sleight of Mind Set workshop. To register your place on the Sleight of Mind Set Workshop, please go to mindsways.com/SMS

THE FEEDBACK

The feedback from the workshops have been extremely positive, with people (from last weeks 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!"

"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/WPS/

WHAT IS 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. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry.

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

 

Tapping Into Popularity

 

Theatre of the Mind

 

Examples of Psychological Artistry

Bath - 22nd June 2013

Glasgow - 2nd July 2013

London - 9th July 2013

Birmingham - 16th July 2013

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.

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/

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

 

Tapping Into Popularity

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:

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/  ;

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/  ;

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

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

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. All of these are entertaining, informative, engaging and practical for you to apply to your delivery. On the Sleight of Mind Set Workshop, you will get:

 

The SMS Pack :- The materials you need to perform the tricks we go through on the day

The SNT Kit :- The Show, Not Tell Kit. For more information on this, please go to mindsways.com/SNT/

The Support Materials :- A 2 hour DVD that guides you through the kit, how to use it and background information. This is also available online.

The Presentation :- A copy of the presentation we use on the day for your reference

The eBook :- Written materials on the tricks, including scripts and how to use them

Follow-up Support :- Contact with the trainers for further training or advice

To learn more about the content of the workshop and any of the itesm above, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/

WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE WORKSHOPS?

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"

"A 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 2 years. 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".

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/  ;

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/  ;

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

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/  ;

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

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.

THE FEEDBACK

The feedback from the workshops have been extremely positive, with people (from last weeks 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!"

"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/WPS/

WHAT IS 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. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry. 

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 as 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.

The aim of the day is to

 

Inform

Stimulate thought

Stimulate reflection

Create actions

Get  you to think anew and build anew

For more information and to book your place on the course, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/

SNAP CRACKLE POP

Snap, Crackle, Pop is a mnemonic that I use which captures the essence of the contents of the Sleight of Mind Set workshops. Without going into too much detail, the letters stand for are:

 

Start

Noticing

Alternative

Perceptions

 

Creativity

Repetitive Statement Injury

Applied Advantage

Cognitive Fitness

KAF (Knowledge x Ability x Frequency = Talent)

Leverage

Emotional Engagement

 

Power

Of

Pictures

Each of these on their own are really powerful concepts and ideas, however I have found that by combining them it makes a very potent mix. They each exist independently within the SNT kit and the workshops, to see more about this, please see mindsways.com/SMS/

WHAT DO I GET ON THE WORKSHOPS?

Within this day, you will find more than 20 discrete routines, ideas and techniques (you will be supplied the physical gimmicks etc in the SNT kit and SMS) 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 (each available separately but are included as part of the day. For more information, visit the SNT kit.) All of these 20 items are entertaining, informative, engaging and practical for you to apply to your delivery.

On the Sleight of Mind Set Workshop, you will get:

 

The SMS Pack :- The materials you need to perform the tricks we go through on the day

The SNT Kit :- The Show, Not Tell Kit. For more information on this, please go to mindsways.com/SNT/

The Presentation :- A copy of the presentation we use on the day for your reference

The eBook :- Access to written material on the tricks, including scripts and tips on performance

Follow-up Support :- Email and phone access to the trainers for further training or advice

Using the materials from the SNT and SMS, you will discover a wealth of practical, real world techniques that can be applied to coaching, training, consultancy, presenting, goal setting, business, personal development and therapy.

Within this day, you will find more than 20 discrete routines, ideas and techniques (you will be supplied the physical gimmicks etc in the SNT kit and SMS) 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 (each available separately but are included as part of the day. For more information, visit the SNT kit.) All of these 20 items are entertaining, informative, engaging and practical for you to apply to your delivery.

To see what's in the SNT kit and for more information, please look at mindsways.com/SNT/

Using the materials from the SNT and SMS, you will discover a wealth of practical, real world techniques that can be applied to coaching, training, consultancy, presenting, goal setting, business, personal development and therapy.

As well as the delivery of the SNT and SMS, we will explore why we believe what we do, why we believe weird things. The workshop weaves a path through Psychological Artistry, Mind Magic, neuroscience and practical delivery methods.

Innovation and creativity lies at the heart of Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic, so whether you are already actively engaged in using your creative skills or just looking to stimulate and nurture your creativity, you will find practical tools for releasing the spirit of innovation and creativity on the Sleight of Mind Set workshop.

WHAT IS 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. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry.
