About this listen
In these uncertain times of disruptions, vast technological and collective world changes, knowing how to be open to what is and being flexible is a critical skill. When you approach life with an open stance, you can clearly observe what is present without collapsing from stress or blaming others or yourself. An open stance will allow you to choose actions that will expand possibilities and bring you more vitality and joy.
Openness is contagious. When we model being open, we inspire openness in others, which supports resilience, wellbeing, and thriving for everyone involved.
Ann Van Eron, PhD, shares the case for adopting an open mindset and stance. She explains a process for building mental muscle and shifting from being closed to open. Multiple practices are offered for embodying an open stance.
As an executive and team coach, Ann has spent decades supporting many organizations, including the United Nations, World Bank Group, CVS Health, New York-Presbyterian Hospital, and Ford Motor Company. Leaders, managers, coaches, parents, and influencers have all benefited from adopting these open stance practices.
Now it's your turn to learn how to be mindful while interacting at home, work, and in your community to positively influence others.

Now neuroscience shows that it's not that simple: In fact, our emotional limbic tissue is evenly divided between our two hemispheres. Consequently, each hemisphere has both an emotional brain and a thinking brain. In this groundbreaking new book, Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor presents these four distinct modules of cells as four characters that make up who we are.

Empathy is something we all feel at one time or another in our lives. It is a necessary human experience and the ability to have a compassionate sense of feeling for another person. You may not have considered yourself an empath before, because our culture hasn't considered it for a long time. It's a valid diagnosis for a person and empaths often end up being accused of being overly sensitive, sometimes sick or depressed, anti-social, and reclusive. If you think that you may be an empath and want to find out how to help you embrace your gift, then don't look any further.

How would you like to be calmer, less distracted, more productive, and more content at your job? You might think it would take more hours in the day, a better boss, more support, less interference, a shorter commute - and the list goes on. Most of the things we think would help are either not in our control or simply not realistic. But there is one thing we can do to achieve the qualities we seek, and it can be done invisibly and often: meditation.

Story
It's pernicious...it's diabolical...it creeps into every moment of our lives. It influences our relationships, impacts our physical body, works its way into our conversations, sparks non-nourishing behaviors, and forces us to do things we'd never want to do. It's infectious; it's relentless.... It's stress! We all know it. We all experience it. It's the human condition - but through this audiobook, you will learn to transcend it.

Story
Between the ages of twelve and twenty-four, the brain changes in important and, at times, challenging ways. In Brainstorm, the renowned psychiatrist and bestselling author of Parenting from the Inside Out, The Whole-Brain Child, and Mindsight, Daniel Siegel busts a number of commonly held myths about adolescence — for example, that it is merely a stage of “immaturity” filled with often “crazy” behavior — to reveal how it is in fact a vital time in our lives in terms of charting the course for the adults we ultimately become.

Why is it easier to ruminate over hurt feelings than it is to bask in the warmth of being appreciated? Because your brain evolved to learn quickly from bad experiences and slowly from good ones, but you can change this.

Story
Most of us believe when we're depressed that our situation is hopeless. That's a mistake, Dr. Elisha Goldstein reassures us in Uncovering Happiness. The secret to overcoming depression and uncovering happiness is in harnessing our brain's own natural antidepressant power and ultimately creating a more resilient antidepressant brain.

Review by Subbayamma Nagubadi
Well written and soothing voice and comforting to listen
Open stance is open heart and feels free and expanded
Closed mind is contracting and the body feels tight
What a wonderful TOOL to check ourselves
Thank yo Ann for writing and reading

Fantastic Guide To A Positive Mindset!
Engagingly narrated by the author, this book walks you through the process of becoming open and applying it to all aspects of your daily life. Very relatable personal and professional experiences noted throughout the book helped me to examine my own experiences and gave me several “lightbulb” moments. The author masterfully walks you through identifying core issues and provides realistic tools to help you take action to truly shift to a positively open mindset. I highly recommend for ANYONE who wants to have more positive, productive and meaningful interactions personally and/or professionally.
This book is a treasure to have in Audiobook format. I found it wonderful to listen to while getting ready for work as well as winding down on my commute home. I could tell such a difference not only in how I approached my workday but in how I was more mindful and present with my children in the evenings. I will definitely replay different portions of this book when I need a mindset shift!
