About this listen

Explore the benefits of a mindful approach to life.

Cutting-edge studies in neuroscience have in recent years proved what many doctors, therapists, and other health professionals had long suspected: Simple, repetitive tasks, performed with focus and attention - mindfulness, in other words - can not only quieten our noisy thought processes and help us relax but also improve our outlook on life and protect us against a range of life-threatening illnesses.

A cognitive neuroscientist and a leading authority on mental performance, Stan Rodski sets out the science behind these remarkable discoveries in simple terms and explains how you in turn can benefit from them. As well as examining the potentially pivotal role of mindfulness in alleviating stress and managing energy, Stan highlights the most effective mindfulness activities, guides you through quick and easy exercises, and tells you how to harness the power of mindfulness over the long term to forge mental and physical resilience - and create a happier, healthier, more compelling future.

I found this audiobook enjoyable, however lacking in neuroscientific evidence and neurophysiological depth as well as the historic legacy of mindfulness. I learnt a lot of mindfulness skills and excersises which were great.

There were a lot of good exercises and ideas in here, but, listening on the go as I do, most of them failed to stick as it is tricky to refer back to them later. This type of book would have really benefited by an accompanying pdf.

Although there were a few nuggets of interest, on the whole the book oscillated between self-promotion and vague claims. My greatest issue was that the author had overestimated their ability to undertake a narration of their tome.
