Training your brain and breathing to improve mental health.

I liked the concepts in this book and the way it’s laid out. It give practical exercises to improve your behaviors and make changes.

Self Help Book that really Helps

This book is helpful to me and my Coaching Practice I can't thank you enough!

Loved it

It really helped me find practical ways to cope with executive function difficulties. Recommendations were accurate for me.

Wasn’t able to get through book

Comprehensive in nature but too focused on the negative for me. I am a huge fan of Clifton Strengths. I think we all have God given talents that we should focus on instead of our weaknesses. I also found the narrator robotic.

A little all over the place

The book has some helpful strategies but was all over the place. I did not think it flowed well from strategy to strategy.
