Synopsis

FInally, a book that explains for every coach, consultant, parent and therapist how to convey messages that move people using the power of Aesop's Fables!

Imagine you - a fabulous fabulist! An Aesopian storyteller!

I wonder if you can you recall a time when a well-told short story captured your imagination. It was likely a mesmerizing experience, especially if it held a lesson, perhaps, that you found useful in the future!Discover how easy it is to use the magic of storytelling to help people make lasting change. 

The Magic of Aesop explains how you, too, can use the structure and morals of his fables (or those you learn to create) to speak directly to the subconscious mind! The author reveals storytelling techniques that the reader can immediately apply. Selected fables are presented to get you started!

• Discover the Legend of Aesop, as you learn about the life of the man behind the fables!
  
• Understand the magical power of Aesop's fables as you examine the structure and strategy of the fable as a short story.
  
• Select powerful stories for change as you learn the basics of hypnosis, rapport-building, and the neuroscience behind storytelling.
  

Stories are about change and, as master storyteller James Halzerig states in the foreword of this book, stories are fundamental to human experience. A good story lowers resistance to hearing an important message to be accepted by the subconscious mind, all toward affecting positive action. We have all been spellbound when a mesmerizing story captures our attention and we find the meaning for our own lives. If you have ever struggled to find the right story to share with a client, a friend, a business associate, or even for your own mind to hear, then you will find this book both entertaining and instructional. Filled with insights and anecdotes from the legend of Aesop and with examples of Aesop's fables used in a clinical hypnosis setting to affect change, The Magic of Aesop will, indeed spark a transformation and set the reader and the listener on a new trajectory.

This book offers specific examples whereby the addition of a fable or two, a moral or two and a few well placed hypnotic suggestions have helped with a wide variety of human issues, presented by a fox, a crow, a mouse, a lion, an eagle, the north wind, the sun and a host of characters from Mother Nature. it's all laid out for you in The Magic of Aesop. Read it and start your own Aesopian journey!

As James Hazlerig further explains in the foreword:

"Existing in a world where we have no fur to keep us warm, no claws and only paltry teeth to fight off attackers, and slow reflexes compared to other predators—indeed no physical advantages as a species other than a knack for endurance-running that lies atrophied beyond use in so many of us—knowledge, community, and the ability to share both are traits at the core of our survival. You could argue that being able to use fire and make tools are just as vital, but the knowledge to do both was passed from human to human; often as they gathered around a fire to tell each other stories, creating the first communities.We don’t know the name of the first human to harness fire, but their knowledge has outlived their name. We don’t know who wrote Gilgamesh, the first epic poem, but the story they composed is still told and retold." So, too, are Aesop's Fables told and retold throughout the world, for the past 2800 years. Now, with the techniques taught in this book, you will gain confidence and skills to tell meaningful, life-changing stories to your loved ones, and to clients!
