Wonders of the Mind Workshops | March 2013SEEING THROUGH ILLUSIONS
If you can't view this email, please click here.
Hi,
It is within our nature to be curious, hold a drive to want to make sense of things and seek answers to our questions. In this ever changing world, the only constant for us is our human nature. Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry engages this drive through stimulating wonder, mystique and intrigue.
It is also in our nature to be attracted to what is unique and different. This is a main factor in the enduring popularity of Mind Magic, with it, we can truly grab and hold attention through our thoughts and ideas. We are immediately drawn to the:
Unusual
Intriguing
Fascinating
All of our workshops, Sleight of Mind Set and The Fascination all use Mind Magic tricks, tools and techniques and Psychological Artistry. There is one overriding theme within them all; that is the Show Not Tell principle. The Show Not Tell principle is all about making people experience and feel the message rather than just be told. The Show Not Tell principle is about engaging through emotions, not just logic and reasoning. The intellect finds the logic to justify what the emotions have decided.
To see more information about The Fascination, please see mindsways.com/the-fascination. For more on Sleight of Mind Set workshops, please go to mindsways.com/SMS/ and for more about the Show Not Tell principle, please look at mindsways.com/SNT/
WHAT IS PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY?
To start with there are many definitions of psychology, but the one that sums it up for me is "the science of how we think". Next is the Artistry part, again, there have been many definitions but I like to think that artistry is a blend of:
Creating connection, rapport and emotions
Telling stories
Gaining and holding attention
Producing insights
Displaying human nature
Cognition
Show, Not Tell
Multiple Moments of Interest, Interaction and Insights (MMI's)
Therefore, Psychological Artistry is the blending of these two to create a method for successful communication. Psychological Artistry is where science and art meet Mind Magic. Psychological Artistry is a route to form:
New Ideas
New Voices
New Questions
New Perspectives
New Expressions for our Passions
New Experiments
Expanded horizons
Emotional Engagement
Using Psychological Artistry is a way to express your personality, it:
Improves personal delivery
Increases your visibility
Enhances personal image and style
Powerful differential
Creates presence and raises profile
Increases perceptual awareness
Learning Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic is all about gaining access to valuable and guarded secrets.
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", a well-known Fred Astaire clip and Rory Sutherland's Perspective Is Everything talk. Please take a look here or go to mindsways.com/SMS. These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry. I would love to know what you think.
TRICKS OF THE MIND
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. On the workshops and in the packs we give you the tricks, however, learning to use them and turn them into effects is where the real power lies.
Delivering these effects, you can evoke the making of the extraordinary. By combining the tricks with the energy of your words, your message and your personality, you make yourself stand out, stimulate fascination and create interest in you. This is when the real magic happens, in the minds of others.

OUR APPROACH
This workshop is good for anyone looking for something different and to stimulate new styles of thinking. The feedback from our sessions and workshops has definitely been that it has satisfied the thirst for new ideas whilst ticking all of the edutrainment boxes.
We know that this is a non-traditional approach. That is where its power lies, however. For many of those who have attended previous workshops, this is an experiment. To see what people have said see mindsways.com/about/what-people-say/.
The approach we take is about using these ideas and techniques to add Fascination and value to your delivery. At the basic level, using these ideas and techniques makes us stand out and grabs people's interest and attention. By integrating Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry with The Fascination workshop, you will certainly introduce mystery and intrigue, whether at a business meeting, a coaching session, a presentation or in your personal life.

My implicit social cognition about smoking is the desire to feel okay and is deeply human. The truth about the dreadful side effects of smoking becomes irrelevant. Western advertising is based on happiness and turned to mass producing consumer goods like cigarettes.

Cognition- The act or process of knowing.
I felt the best way to show the process of knowing was by somebody learning. And so I found this picture of a man, in a library studying.
I found a thought bubble off google and used the magic wand to rid of all that wasn't the black outline. Then using the Past In to process, I got the civil war picture inside. The text, got some outer and inner glow to it, along with some contour on the word, cognition.
