This book entitled :
THE HERE AND NOW HABIT by Hugh G. Byrne, PhD.

Great introduction to mindfulness and how you can use it for you emotional balance, control of anger, giver yourself actual control. Not a quick fix.

Takes some time to learn not hard to master.

/www.amazon.com/dp/B0197SJQAA/ref=cm_sw_r_fm_apa_w-wbybPE35TQP

So you will most likely find a copy at the local library.

I hope this helps someone.

Peace

What kind of stuff have you learned from it?

I'm reading "Spontaneous Happiness" by Andrew Weil, as recommended by my shrink. I typically read in bed, and the only problem I'm having so far is that every time I try to roll over, I keep knocking up against Weil's ego. (lol)

F37, missed you post. OOPS!

IT has strengthened my mindfulness skills. Made them clearer

Learned that negative core beliefs/thoughts are directly connected to habits. Catch 22, through childhood conditioning

R.A.I.N.; Loving Kindness; Self Compassion and Riding the Way are explained in everyday lanquage.

Peace

Hi everyone

Here is a surprise!

I just purchased 'The Power of Off' by Nancy Colier.

It is about how to balance technology and unpugging in your life.

I FIND this extremely important for 2 main reasons:

Our bodies, especially the human eyes were not meant to stare at LED screens all days. Or whatever the light is called.

The 2nd, is the action of unplugging reduces stress. Anxiety and and depression; we replaced with positive coping skills


VERY INSIGHTFUL BOOK
