My first book is finally published!!

I have finally published my first book, entitled “Skiing without Fear”.

It is an instruction manual on how to use neurolinguistic programming (NLP) and visualisation techniques to overcome fears surrounding skiing and learning to ski.  At 102 pages, it is quite a small book – but hopefully will be an influential book in the future.   My hope is that as many people that have read “Inner Skiing” read mine!

Skiing without Fear

I often wondered why noone had ever combined NLP and skiing because, to me, they seemed a natural fit as the mental aspects of the sport seem to hold back the most people – rather than the physical technique of how to ski.

… so I finally got around to doing the research – I read over 30 NLP books for this project which combined with my training as a life coach, and all the NLP stuff I’ve learnt since I first heard about NLP back in Australia in 1991!!

It is available on Amazon.com and amazon.co.uk – simply go here :  http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0956512704?ie=UTF8&tag=skichaletsbiz-21&linkCode=as2&camp=1634&creative=19450&creativeASIN=0956512704  or search on “skiing without fear”.

  1. Hi Leighton, I had a client sho had a fear of skiing and snow come and see me for help. I have very little knowledge of skiing so I got your book through amazon and it really helped!
