Matrix of Manipulations. How to Achieve Your Goals and Protect Yourself from Others' Influence

Every day we are manipulated and pressured to do things that are not beneficial for us. Enough of tolerating this! Take control of your life and steer yourself towards happiness.

The book discusses manipulations from all sides:

- how manipulations are constructed;

- the foundation of manipulations - needs, values, emotions;

- techniques and methods of manipulation (including NLP techniques and psychological tricks) with examples and principles of use for both defense and attack;

- a special instruction for manipulators.

Psychologist Anastasia Balashova, with over 10 years of practical consulting experience, author of courses and methods for overcoming codependent relationships, and creator of a YouTube channel about manipulations, shares how to manage oneself and manipulate others.

The author does not indulge in moralizing but calmly describes the role of manipulations in our lives, offering a critical evaluation of the behavior of others and oneself.
