About this listen
Have you ever driven several miles without noticing anything on the road or read a page in a book without registering any of it? Do the day's worries and disappointments crowd your mind as you're trying to fall asleep at night? Do you feel stressed much of the time and aren't sure how to find peace?
In this book Amit Sood, MD, MSc, a Mayo Clinic specialist in stress and resiliency, reveals how the mind's instinctive restlessness and shortsightedness generate stress and anxiety and presents strategies for living a more peaceful life. The book is based on the highly popular stress management program offered at Mayo Clinic that Dr. Sood developed after two decades of work with tens of thousands of people.
Drawing on groundbreaking brain research, Dr. Sood helps you understand the brain's two modes and how an imbalance between them produces unwanted stress. From this basis you learn skills that will help you:
- Develop deep and sustained attention
- Practice gratitude, compassion, and acceptance
- Live a meaningful life
- Cultivate nurturing relationships
- Achieve your highest potential
All of these concepts are weaved into a practical and fun journey that has been tested in numerous scientific studies, with consistently positive results. Take the first step to discover greater peace and joy for you and your loved ones.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

This Book is a Life Changer
No exageration. This book has done more for me than the Counselor I saw, the Therapist I went to, and even the Psychiatrist I was seeing. It is a foundation for peace and happiness, and even more so, a key to a functional relationship and raising healthy children. No book has done more for me, I can not recommend it enough. It all seemed so hopeless for so many years, but this book has changed everything, and I mean everything. I will listen to it over and over again for the rest of my life. Thank you.

Mixture of focused and scaterred advice
I liked some chapters of the book very much but found many other chapters not focused and simply full of random advice. I did not enjoy the reader's voice and the style of his reading. This is very subjective. Listen to the sample in audible and judge for yourself before buying it.
