The 12 Week Mind Workout

Book excerpt: Although not all of us do it all the time, we all know the things we need to do to take care of our body - hit the gym or the running track and eat our greens. But are we so clear on what to do if it is our mental rather than physical condition that needs attention? This amazingly practical book will take your mind to the gym and show you how, in 12 weeks, to live more mindfully, rid yourself of worry, clear your head, strive for happiness and get more done. The book is structured exactly like a progressive exercise program; every week (or chapter) starts with a 'warm-up' - a theoretical part - followed by a concrete training and concluding with a 'cool down '. In between, the reader receives useful tips, examples, directions and concerns, coupled with inspiring quotes. The reader chooses the level of daily exercise, from 'light' to intensive, with a free audio track providing the accompaniment. You have 12 weeks to improve your outlook, habits and happiness - starting now.
