Narrado por: Zelana Montminy

A must-read action plan to reclaim your focus, direct your attention, and save your mind in an era of endless distraction.

Our brains are wired for focus. We are designed for it, we crave it, and yet in our current age of overload, we often feel like our minds are bolting from one distraction to the next, with sustained focus always just out of reach. Finding Focus is an empowering guide to reclaiming your most precious resource: your attention. Leading behavioral scientist Dr. Zelana Montminy unveils the science behind focus and distraction, revealing how our hyperconnected reality and the endless flux between digital and physical life fragments our thoughts and diminishes our well-being. Finding Focus equips you with powerful strategies to:

· Silence the noise
· Rewire your brain
· Unleash your potential
· Rediscover yourself

If we can control our attention and be present, if we choose when and how we engage, we have a greater sense of wellbeing, deeper fulfillment, and a clear purpose. Finding Focus invites you to ask the question “Where do I want to direct my focus today?” It is a call to arms for anyone yearning to break free from the grip of distraction and live a life brimming with purpose and connection.
