The Phone Book :

Breakthrough Neurolinguistic phone skills for profit and enlightenment

by Peter Blum & Richard Zarro

Now in its 5th printing, this 1989 classic, co-authored by Richard Zarro and Peter Blum, and published by Metamorphous Press, presents many of the fundamental concepts and techniques of NLP (Neurolinguistic Programming), as applied especially to the telephone.

Written as a novel, yet filled with applicable fact, The Phone Book treats every phone call as an exciting adventure. Who is it? What did he say? Then what happened? Zarro and Blum are expert Neuro-Linguistic Programmers who know how to establish rapport with their readers.

 

The Phone Book, by Peter Blum & (Dude)

The result is a book on communication which will actually reach out and touch someone. That someone just might be you.

Myth & Metaphor for Therapeutic Trance

The use of myth and metaphor in therapy and hypnotic work ensure that our communications, our messages to people, are perceived in many dimensions.

Vibrational Healing & Trance Inductions Using Singing Bowls

Throughout history, healers have used vibrations — specifically the audible vibrations of sound and music — as a pivotal modality, to induce and enhance healing states of consciousness.

Hypnosis and Shamanism

Most of today’s hypnotists primarily use spoken language to help their clients enter hypnotic trance... I propose that by staying within the limitations of our western, civilized mind-set of what a hypnotist should look or act like, we lose access to so many of the tools, attitudes, and methodologies that we can learn from the world of traditional shamanism.

Hypnosis as Energy Work

Human beings are beings of energy. In the process of training, a hypnotist learns to develop sensory acuity, to quiet down in order to attune him/herself to the energy field(s) of his client.

Ericksonian or Blumian?

I began to teach "Ericksonian Hypnotherapy," but I am beginning to think that it really has evolved into something else. In Dr. Milton Erickson's own words (1983), "Develop your own technique. Don't try to use somebody else's technique. ...Don't try to imitate my voice or my cadence. Just discover your own. Be your own natural self. It's the individual responding to the individual..."


Reviews of "The Phone Book" from Amazon.com

"The telephone. We love it and we hate it. It can drive us crazy at the office or bring us a sense of comfort when we are lonely. In a unique approach to enhancing phone skills Richard Zarro and Peter Blum have written The Phone Book. Unlike some of the cold just the facts techniques found in most business books, The Phone Book is presented with humor and insight.

"As the authors point out early in the book, the telephone is taken for granted and yet few of us appreciate this little miracle that is part of our everyday activities. We can contact our neighbor across the street or call to the other side of the planet.... Since this book was recently picked up by AT&T for it's employees, I think the quality of the information speaks for itself.

"If you wish to enhance your professional business skills or just want to reach out and touch someone then don't hesitate to order the book and the supporting cassette tape."
