Portals and the 12 Languages of The Mind
How to Attract Attention and Influence Mood
Matter is made of three elements—protons, neutrons, and electrons. But what are the fundamental elements of thought?
In this class, you’ll learn how humans communicate at their most basic level, using the 12 Languages of the Mind. These languages help sculptors, painters, writers, and speakers refine their craft by mastering how thoughts and feelings are transmitted. You’ll also learn about Portals—a powerful tool for shifting consciousness and deepening engagement.
What are Portals?
Portals act as gateways that guide people from one mental or emotional state to another. They help you influence how someone interacts with a space or experience, whether it’s a painting, photograph, retail store, or any other environment. Portals invite people to step in, explore, and linger. They create moments of curiosity and promise adventure.
For example, in retail, stores without entry Portals feel wide open and exposed, making it easy for customers to wander in but just as easy to leave. A well-designed Portal, like a door or a threshold, provides a boundary that encourages customers to commit to the space, spend more time, and engage with the environment on a deeper level.
You’ll learn how to consciously use Portals to:
Spark curiosity and hold attention
Create deeper emotional connections
Influence mood and decision-making
Master the 12 Languages of the Mind In addition to Portals, you’ll explore the 12 Languages of the Mind, which shape our perceptions:
Shape: angles vs. curves
Numbers: many vs. few
Phonemes: sounds and letters
Color: how hues combine with shape and energy
Proximity: near/far, large/small
Music: sound beyond language
Radiance: energy projection
Motion: fast/slow
Symbols: secondary meanings
Taste: flavor perception
Feel: tactile experience
Smell: olfactory signals
These languages allow us to control perceptions, which in turn shape conclusions and influence actions.
Why It Matters
Artists, designers, and retailers who understand how to use Portals and the 12 Languages create environments that captivate. Customers are naturally drawn to spaces where there’s something hidden to discover—places that offer a promise of adventure. By using these techniques, you’ll influence how people experience your work or space, making them more likely to stay, explore, and ultimately engage more deeply.
Join us for 2 days and 3 nights at Wizard Academy, where you’ll unlock the secrets of influencing thought and mood through Portals and the 12 Languages. Return home wiser, deeper, and ready to captivate and control the perceptions of those around you.
“Everything in the universe is connected, of course. It’s just a matter of using imagination to discover the links, and language to expand and enliven them.” – Tom Robbins
