Very helpful

This is not the best self-help book I’ve read but it’s still very helpful. It’s a quick read but I guess I prefer the longer ones bc I feel like this one had a slow start. The narrator sounded monotone and almost intimidating at times like a super villain lol.

Some of my fav tips were the journaling suggestions to write down facts instead of fears. I tend to fall into thought traps all day and it’s impossible sometimes to pull myself out of them. Mindfulness seems to be the key cure from what I have read. I kinda zoned out during the breathing exercises, those never appeal to or work for me, they make me more anxious somehow haha.

I have def always been a reactive person rather than responsive and this book highlights ways to change that. I particularly enjoyed the chapter about active listening bc I tend to always be in my own head and don’t listen to ppl when they talk, or I listen enough and then focus on what I will say once they stop talking.

Overall, I would recommend this book for anyone who is stressed and is looking to stay in the moment. You are sure to find something that works best for you 😁

thank you this helps me in every way

the narrative should have a little more energy. monotone voice.. I was listening at the first reading at work and it put me to sleep. the second time was better because was opened and respectively opened

I liked this book

I liked this book. There are lots of good teckniques that can reduce stress and help to live a mindful life.

great exercises

big majority of the exercises are great and the index is wonderful! definitely going to hear it more than once.
it can be weird in the audio book format, drive done exercises would need to be written down or memorized in order to actually do them. pausing the audio book everyone can put you out of the exercise. it would be great to have the exercises be paced to actually do the exercises alongside (at least with the ones that are not depending on external factors) with a calming background music or sounds

Stress less and my Go-to

This book is a godsend to me I am unable to be seen by a therapist for CBT so I found this book it’s been helping It’s going to live in the moment and think before I react.

Simple and nice

Overall good but the narration is slow and narrator monotonous voice. Overcoming stressful situations has good stuff.

Works better on paperback.

As an audio book this is not effective. Purchase a paper copy so you can take notes and go back and forward.

I can’t

This narrator would be a wonderful newscaster the kind of old that told the news as it was. Think 60 minutes…

I think mindfulness’s I think something more soothing….

Boring

Boring , a lot of good information . Could have been a little more upbeat to engage the listener
