Research Methodology

To the colonized, the term 'research' is conflated with European colonialism; the ways in which academic research has been implicated in the throes of imperialism remains a painful memory. This essential volume explores intersections of imperialism and research—specifically, the ways in which imperialism is embedded in disciplines of knowledge and tradition as 'regimes of truth.

Research is anchored by assumptions. How do we complete research—and why? This book—The Three Monkeys of Research—explores epistemology, ontology and methodology. Tara Brabazon explores how ideas become knowledge, and how arguments are verified, believed and disseminated to scholars, stakeholders and citizens.

Aion is one of the major works of C.G. Jung's later years. The title comes from the Greek word for aeon or age and refers to the age of Christianity, for, in Aion, Jung is concerned with the collective psychic development that the Christian era represents. How did it come about when it did? What psychic change did it represent? In exploring these questions, Jung (1875-1961) draws upon Christian symbolism and, in particular, the figure of Christ as a case study in the archetype of the Self.

Whether a clinician employing hypnosis or hypnotherapy uses a formal written script or not, all practitioners have adopted a structure that is based upon traditions and theories that are most likely a half century to several centuries old. Most of these methods have long been overdue for an update. That is, if you wish to remain effective and relevant in this ever-changing field.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is an art and science that describes how human beings interpret their environment and how we communicate with others. NLP, which is known for modeling human behavior and installing it in others, is used for performance improvement and has been used for psychotherapy. This series of five books gives you a concise summary of the key concepts with a more up-to-date perspective.

This audiobook is about developing mastery. Although I respect the fact that starting at an early age does give a person a jump start, achieving mastery - or at least a substantially enhanced level of performance - can happen at any age. As a clinical hypnotherapist and NLP trainer, obviously my emphasis will be on the use of suggestion and imagination as tools to accelerate the achievement of mastery. The more you focus on a skill, the thicker and more developed the neural substrate related to the skill will become.

Your Change Methodology will show you how you can continue moving from transformational theory toward a clear action plan. It will show you how to improve your focus, how to install expert performance by recognizing the key steps and features of a skill, how to quickly recall a patter of expert performance, and how to improve your brain’s competence for those skills.

The human experience is a matter of constant change. That is, unless, you wish to become obsolete or redundant. This affects individuals and even groups such as clubs, organizations, and government entities. Either change, or become irrelevant. Rapid Change is a capstone summary for a series of other books that incrementally move listeners from simple and profound transformation concepts found in traditional hypnotherapy (hypnosis), psychology, coaching, and medicine, to the latest thinking in mind/body health, artificial intelligence, and more.

Every human activity or occurrence takes place in a specific place and time. That includes behaviors and competencies as well as our physical and mental health. Just about all transformation involves a change in the space and time attributes as we move from the past, the present, and the future. Understanding these easy to grasp concepts can yield fast personal changes and provide the serious transformational coach and mental health, and medical practitioners a radical new way of thinking.

If we could read minds, we would know what to do or say at the right time. We would never have to worry about how others perceive you, and we would not have to waste so much time on people who did not deserve it. If we could read minds, the world would be "sucker" free. Such ability would save so much time and trouble!

This concise book will help you “connect the dots” and become a much more effective change agent. It serves as an introduction to the Neurology of Suggestion concepts that are the core of Advanced Neuro-Noetic Hypnosis (TM), which blends direct and indirect hypnosis with more modern fields such as artificial intelligence, mind/body integration, and the latest innovations in neurology.

For many people, NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) is synonymous with modeling behavior. The theory is if you can reverse-engineer expert performance, you can achieve anything. This practical book introduces you to NLP-style modeling so that you can quickly apply it to a wide range of performance tasks ranging from sports, musical performance, learning, and to a wide range of business applications.

The field of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) started in the 1970's but has continually evolved thanks to numerous developers over the years. This audiobook starts with the core concept, which is the NLP communication model, upon which this system of human change is based. Starting with a simple concept of how a person filters their perceptions and how that affects their mind, individuals, coaches, and mental health professionals have used NLP to overcome fears and limitations, increase confidence, and move toward a more successful life.

Understanding NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) is much more valuable when you have specific applications such as ways to improve your mind, your health, and your performance. This audiobook introduces you to several ways you can immediately apply the concepts and move toward lasting change.

NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) was developed to accelerate human change. Typically training includes route mastering of an seemingly endless array of techniques. While students of the field may be awed by the results and how quickly that can change human behavior, rarely do they understand why they work. Thus, they have very little capability when it comes to modifying the techniques to fit their situations. This book provides the solution to that dilemma.

One of the first skills that NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) students are taught is how to immediately establish rapport - and how to break rapport when needed. This book presents several techniques that can be used to gain a high-level rapport that can then be used to influence, sale, and gain better empathy. Although NLP was first developed in the 1970s, this book considers up-to-date developments in the field of neurology and how they relate to NLP.

The implications of Erickson's approaches to hypnotherapy and psychotherapy are vast. This concise audiobook presents the four major developments that emanated from his work. It is through understanding these views that you may discover ways to further implement his ideas and techniques in your practice. Milton H. Erickson, MD was an American psychiatrist who pioneered several indirect or permissive hypnosis techniques. He also developed several naturalistic techniques using metaphors and stories.
