Story
Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

Story
Hugh van Cuylenburg was a primary school teacher volunteering in northern India when he had a life-changing realisation: despite the underprivileged community the children were from, they were remarkably positive. By contrast, back in Australia Hugh knew that all too many children struggled with depression, social anxieties and mental illness. His own little sister had been ravaged by anorexia nervosa. How was it that young people he knew at home, who had food, shelter, friends and a loving family, struggled with their mental health, while these kids seemed so contented and resilient?

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Story
For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

When you let go, you live intuitively. Everything flows, because you are no longer attached to things being a certain way, to being a certain person or always being right. What a relief. The irony is that when you feel stuck in any area of your life - career, relationships, purpose, health or money - letting go can seem very hard. You cling on for dear life just at the moment you need to take the leap. In The Power of Letting Go, John Purkiss explains why we should let go and how we can do it, using proven techniques to make things happen.

Same Thing. Different Title.
This would probably be a good book if you've never read a self help book before.
If you've read any self help books before, this is just a regurgitation.
Or at least that's all I got from it before I couldn't listen any longer.

Great practical guide - but please be careful with recommending meditation
There is a building body of evidence suggesting myriad adverse effects meditation can have - particularly for those experiencing trauma. It might be worth suggesting that people watch out for vispassana meditation retreats and or other intensive practices can cause people to experience things such as involuntary tics and twitches, repressed memories reappearing and more. There are also cults that feed on this vulnerability. Mediation is also out of step with the modern experience, so it’s worth suggesting that not too much emphasis should be placing pressure on learning the theistic core of meditation practice. Just some thoughts. Great speaking voice, great practical guide otherwise. But we do owe a great deal of respect for the modern appropriation of ancient religions as tools for mental health. They weren’t always used like this and Buddhism has been a way of life and cultural phenomenon for a long, long time. So it’s worth researching and letting the audience know this. It is powerful and has been used by cult leaders. (Not saying you are doing this, obviously! Hahaha)

I learnt so much.
I learnt so much thanks to Dr Julie Smith. I also loved how she Narrated her own book, and how she combined, Psychology, Mental Health Practical Tips, Real Life Stories & her own personal stories in a really easy way. With so much going on in the World and Communities today, I feel much more equipped as I now have so many more knowledge, insight, tips, hacks, practices to support me along the way. I also hope if you have now read my review & choose to read this book it always brings you that same learning experience. Yvette Le Blowitz, Australia
