Using Words to Create Worlds
Sleight of Mouth
The Magic of Language
Sleight of Mouth patterns are “verbal reframes” which influence beliefs, and the mental maps from which beliefs have been formed.

The word sleight comes from an Old Norse word meaning “crafty,” “cunning,” “artful” or “dexterous.” Sleight of hand, for example, is a type of magic done by close-up card magicians.

The verbal patterns of Sleight of Mouth have a similar “magical” quality because they can often create dramatic shifts in perception and the assumptions upon which particular perceptions are based.
Come with me on a journey into the magic of language.
