How to feel calmer, healthier and more intentional by learning to recognize, question and purposefully disrupt unhelpful ways of working and patterns of thinking.
Build your calm, work with purpose, live your life.
A step-by-step mindfulness coaching programme so you can make mindfulness part of your everyday routine and better manage stress, anxiety and insecurity.
The Mindfulness Habit provides an 8-week, peer reviewed mindfulness course alternating with chapters that tackle practical workplace challenges in a relatable and compassionate way. Topics include working with uncertainty and insecurity; stress and burnout; anxiety; switching off from work, and how to deal with difficult communications. You will also discover how mindfulness can support diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace.
"I can't 'do' mindfulness. My mind is too busy, I can't sit still, I just don't have the TIME!" The reasons you think you can't, are the same reasons why you should give mindfulness a go.
Lisa Wren specialises in teaching people who are seriously busy, overwhelmed, stressed out, or in full-on meltdown because life is rushing past at a ridiculous pace. People who like to learn and progress, who value career and life, but who can't seem to ever catch-up, or get on top of things....or who yearn for just 5 minutes of peace (is that too much to ask?!).
Mindfulness can help because your mind is busy, because your body is agitated, and because you don't have time. In fact, you don't need to find much time at all - no longer than the time it has taken you to read this paragraph.
The insights and information shared in The Mindfulness Habit can make a meaningful difference to how you feel.
Lisa provides valuable knowledge, and ethically sound perspectives and practices that can help you to navigate the often-difficult relationship between mental health and the demands placed upon us at work and in life. So much of what is suffered is unspoken, and you might assume that feeling persistently stressed, anxious, overwhelmed, or exhausted is just something you must put up with. This book shows how you can have a productive and successful working life whilst also feeling calmer, healthier, and more in control.
The Mindfulness Habit blends established mindfulness curricula with other approaches in positive psychology and introduces 'active awareness' - mindfulness without meditation which can bring mindfulness directly into your everyday life. This unique synthesised approach provides the option of different routes into mindfulness: there is a path to mindfulness waiting for you in this book.
