The present moment is a strange place. We are all trapped here, really, and there is utterly no other place to be, yet so few of us take a moment to stop and have a look around. The future and the past all exist in the mind. They are only ever memories, dreams, little flickers in the electrified meat we generously call our brains. The only thing that is real is the moment that is happening right now. Learn how to practice mindfulness and create more calm, joy and focus in your life TODAY! Are you ready to take the challenge?

Let's start with a thought experiment. Take a moment to imagine yourself, only a more calm and peaceful version. Think of how you'd be at work, at home, with those you love and those you don't. Think of all the things you'd do differently, how you would feel and look.

True happiness is an "inside job". Look at a happy person's life, and you don't see any magic or unicorns. There's nothing in them that isn't also in you. Though external realities can certainly play a role, happiness doesn't spring from what you have, what happens to you, the situation you are in, where you are, or anything else. In fact, if it was easy to be happy, this book would be a very short one!

This book provides an insightful, sometimes humorous guide to help abolish the notion that you have to be superwoman in order for your life to matter. The idea of being all things to all people could be at least part of the reason why you are not truly happy and healthy. The goal of this book is to help you truly examine the elements in your life that serve as stressors disguised as necessary evils. Let's face it - many of the evils we manage on a day-to-day basis are not necessary.

When you talk to yourself about your health condition, what do you say? Are you negative? Do you say only what the doctor has diagnosed? Do you allow others to speak negatively in your presence?
