Hello all you covert mind benders!
Im new to the magic Café crew but id love some help to find my way around here! Im an aspiring mentalist and Iv been studying and practising mentalism for a year now! but iv reached the stage where I need help from the exceedingly more advanced, see, I have talked to a few mentalist here and there and they all seem very up tight and secretive for reasons that I do not know, you'd think they actually knew anything of worth. Non the less, this is why I hope the Café family can help me develop and become the mentalist I dreamt to be when I started this profession. Over this year I have become stronger in my observations in terms of people reading, and understanding behaviours and the human mind, my next trip for learning is "mind reading", and making sure I am fully aware of that subject and how to preform it before I venture into hypnosis which I already have experience with ( I just wish to prefect it ). So does anyone have ANY idea how or what or where I should start with mindreading? do you have experience with this? do you have a list of things I can work through to attain this act? even if its just one sentence just to get me started iv been itching for this from day one! please help you guys!!! - TripleM |

Hi TripleM
Welcome to TMC. Not being a mentalist myself but perform some mental effects, I would suggest getting a copy of 13 Steps to mentalism by Tony Corinda. Most of the mentalists recommend this as a starter book for mentalism. Enjoy your journey into mentalism All the best Michael |

Welcome TripleM,
I find your attitude a bit strange. You want people who have paid, researched and practiced to find and hone their craft to hand it over (while at the same time denigrating their knowledge base). There is a policy here about NOT handing over secrets. Many of the secrets that a Professional may know are proprietary to the inventor. The inventors have a right not to have their property handed out freely. On the whole the advice here will be more about performance skills, business advice, pointing to resources and such. I think some reading about NLP may help you in the direction you seem to be heading. There are many books about this available free through the Library system if you are in the U.S. Word to the wise, positive and friendly posters get much more help than demanding ones. Written posts don't always read the way you meant them so a re-read before posting can save mis-understandings. -Mary Mowder |

I get the impression that you may have a serious misunderstanding about what mentalism actually is.

I was thinking the same thing, Bob. At six posts in one day, all asking the same question (and actually a question that “almost” makes sense), I’m prompted to ask one of my own.
AF, you DO realize that this a website catering primarily to performers of make-believe, right? In the same way that a magician doesn’t actually materialize the rabbit inside the hat, a mentalist (deep breath for fear of disturbing some Penny regulars ) a mentalist doesn’t actually READ minds. It’s a trick, yes? (Sincerely hope I’m not talking to Adam from Paul Gallico’s “The Man Who Was Magic”...that would make me Ninian!) Regardless, since you've already been directed to Penny, I'll simply say, "Welcome to the Café!" Hope your time here is productive!
...what if I could read your mind?
