		<description><![CDATA[The Effect of Mood Valence on Memory Recall and Communication. Have you ever noticed that when you are depressed that pretty much everything seems depressing? You may look at a couple happily walking down the street and all you are thinking about is how they are eventually going to get into an argument and break up&#8230; Or how they will eventually cheat on each other and end the relationship. Or maybe you are watching your children play and rather than thinking about how wonderful it is that they are happy, all you can think about is how sad it is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Communication Expertise with Cognitive Rule Sets. Decision making has been an inherently interesting subject for the field of psychology. In understanding the process by which people make decisions, it is significantly easier to predict and direct their behavior… For us to move further in our discussion, the term “decision” is important to define and understand first… Now when I say “decision”, many people are only envisioning a buying decision which is fair enough. What most people really don’t realize though is that decisions are not only involved, but are the life blood of literally every single turn in our life. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From a functionality standpoint, Hypnotic Language can be broken up into two overlying categories based on exactly how each is working with your brain’s natural function. Traditionally hypnotic language has been solely grouped into and classified as what is termed the “Milton Model”. Although hypnosis dates back to the 1700’s with Franz Mesmer drawing people into a trance through the rhythmic movement of objects such as his hands, its practical usage was really developed by Milton Erickson. Milton was an American psychiatrist and developed the language patterns, unknowingly, while working with his own patients. Milton is actually a pretty fascinating [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Becoming a Communication Expert with Cartesian Linguistics Part 2. During any effective communication, a communication expert will seek to understand fully and multidimensionally what their communication partner is saying. When I use the term multidimensional, this simply means that there are many different directions by which to look at and evaluate subject matter. The concept of multidimensionality comes from the field of quantum linguistics which I define a bit more thoroughly in part 1 of this series and my post on Sleight of Mouth Patterns. In referencing yesterday’s post, we talked about seeking out boundary conditions when communicating with someone [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today we are going to finish our Crash Course on Linguistic Presuppositions. To this point we have covered what Presuppositions are, where they come from and the different areas in which they are categorized. In this last post we are going to talk about some of the ways in which Presuppositions can be used and I will give you a few examples to illustrate that. Now although Presuppositions are mainly considered a quantum linguistic, it really is their hypnotic capacity that gives them their “effective communication” strength. Presuppositions, when used will do major things to the recipient’s mind when they [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday we broke into presuppositions by defining the phrase and talking a bit about what they are. Today we are going to create a sharper focus and talk about the categories that presupposition can be broken up into. While we do this, we can also talk about what exactly they &#8220;DO&#8221; to the mind of the communication recipient when they are use in conversation. So let&#8217;s get right into it&#8230; Imagine that you wake up one morning and you find yourself in a room&#8230; no doors, no windows&#8230; nothing but a light at the top. You are hungry, thirsty, scared&#8230; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the field of professional communication, one of the most important skills that someone can have as a communication expert is the ability to artfully and covertly steer a conversation in what ever direction they determine is necessary to achieve their goal. The complexity of language leaves us with an almost infinite number of possible ways to do this. Some of the most powerful tools in the field of communication come from the field of study known as Pragmatics. To define it, Pragmatics is the study of a natural language speaker&#8217;s ability to communicate information other than what they are [...]]]></description>

Today we are going to talk about how the brain turns the phonemes into words via our mental lexicon so let’s get to it… Decoding of a word&#8217;s meaning with the Mental Lexicon: The processes that we elaborate upon on this series all happen/occur interactively , so keep in mind that they don’t necessarily occur in a specific order once the initial stimulus is experienced. Aside from the necessity of defining what each word is specifically as the initial activation cue, the following functions happen interchangeably and dynamically [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The word quantum is Latin and means &#8220;how great&#8221; or &#8220;how much.&#8221; Now in quantum mechanics, it refers to a discrete (specific) unit (measurement) that quantum theory assigns to certain quantities, such as the energy of an atom at rest. The field of quantum mechanics came about due to the discovery that waves have discrete energy packets (called quanta) that can behave in a manner similar to particles. In other words, depending on the constitution of a waves energy packets, it can act or represent itself in different ways. Taking this one step further, a &#8220;quantum state&#8221; refers to any [...]]]></description>
