It is a perfect book for all teachers who are interested in innovative teaching methods and their practical application in the classroom. It engages with the elements of NLP, Suggestopaedia, TPR and multiple intelligences, along with brain-gym, non-violent communication and much more. It is very interactive and engaging, full of short glossaries of terms, definitions, references and background reading.

It is divided into 5 main sections which provide `brain-friendly`checklist for every lesson and deal with main concepts of how learning works: how our brain learns, different learning styles, the affective and emotional aspects, music and movement, image and memory, relaxation and visualisation.
