about this book Daily Meditations for Calming Your Anxious Mind

Trying to control your anxious thoughts can backfire, making them more prevalent, not less. The best way to calm these common feelings is by attuning yourself to your thoughts in a nonjudgmental, attentive manner, acknowledging your anxieties but choosing to act rather than react. From the author of Calming Your Anxious Mind comes this collection of more than sixty-four daily mindfulness-based meditations to help you engage with the present moment, manage stress and anxiety, and rediscover the joy in living. Each meditation contains an easy-to-learn visualization exercise, affirmation, or activity, with meditations grouped into four sections: relaxing and feeling safe, embracing joys and fears, befriending your anxious mind and body, and connecting to the web of life.

about this book LEAVE YOUR MIND BEHIND

Even though we usually have little control over our thoughts, we tend to invest in them with a lot of authority. Take a moment right now and think, “There’s a hungry grizzly bear sitting next to me.” Did you run screaming from the room? Probably not. But what if instead you had thought, “I’m boring,” or “No one loves me”? Just like that terrifying grizzly, these more garden-variety thoughts are just words and pictures that pop into our minds. If we can learn to notice our thoughts without taking them literally, we can devote our energies to living a rich and purposeful life—rather than running from imaginary grizzlies. The lighthearted practices in this book can help you make it happen. Drawn from a new approach to psychotherapy called acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), these activities won’t tell you to stop or control problematic thinking. Instead, they’ll show you how to watch your thoughts without judgment and learn to live with the confounding and marvelous word-making, storytelling machine that is your mind.

about this book Buddha’s Brain

The Buddha and other great teachers were born with brains built essentially like anyone else’s— and then they changed their brains in ways that changed the world. Science is now revealing how the flow of thoughts actually sculpts the brain. By combining breakthroughs in neuroscience with insights from thousands of years of contemplative practice, you, too, can use your mind to shape your brain for greater happiness, love, and wisdom. Buddha’s Brain draws on the latest research to show how to stimulate and strengthen your brain for more fulfilling relationships, a deeper spiritual life, and a greater sense of inner confidence and worth. You’ll learn how to activate the brain states of calm, joy, and compassion instead of worry, sorrow, and anger. This clear, downto-earth book is filled with practical tools and skills that you can use in daily life to tap the unused potential of your brain and rewire it over time for greater well-being and peace of mind.

“[Buddha’s Brain] not only shows us effective ways to develop real happiness in our lives, but also explains physiologically how and why they work.” —James Baraz, author of Awakening Joy

about this book Women Who Worry Too Much

Do you worry incessantly about things that are not likely to happen? Do you lose sleep because of worry or “worry yourself sick?” Does your tendency to worry affect your work or relationships? Do you even worry about worry itself? If so, you might have a problem with worry or generalized anxiety—and you’re not alone. Many women feel just like you do. In fact, research suggests that a range of psychological, social, and even biological factors make women more prone to worry about things than men. But, regardless of natural inclinations, worry doesn’t need to cause difficulties in your life. Worrying too much is something you can overcome—if you have the right information and good advice. This book offers a range of simple, powerful techniques to combat worry. It shows you how to stop the spiral of thoughts, feelings, sensations, and behaviors that perpetuate the worry cycle. Instead, the exercises and inventories in the book will help you gain new perspectives, relax, and live fully in the present. You’ll learn how to redirect your focus and energy into positive action instead of worry.

This is not another diet book. Eating Mindfully offers simple and compassionate mindfulness exercises that can help you understand when you are truly hungry and when you are eating to calm negative emotions.

“Susan Albers explores crucial spiritual dimensions that are so often overlooked in our relationship with food.

about this book 50 Ways to Soothe Yourself without Food

Food has the power to temporarily alleviate stress and sadness, enhance joy, and bring us comfort when we need it most. It’s no wonder experts estimate that 75 percent of overeating is triggered by our emotions, not physical hunger. The good news is you can instead soothe yourself through dozens of mindful activities that are healthy for both body and mind. Susan Albers, author of Eating Mindfully, offers this collection of 50 mindfulness skills and practices for relaxing the body in times of stress and ending your dependence on eating as a means of coping with difficult emotions. You’ll not only discover easy ways to soothe urges to overeat, you’ll also learn how to differentiate emotion-driven hunger from healthy hunger. Reach for this book instead of the refrigerator next time you feel the urge to snack—these alternatives are just as satisfying!

about this book The Lotus Effect

The lotus plant has a unique ability to survive in muddy, humid swamps, producing beautiful flowers that bloom just above the water’s surface. By repelling dirt and parasites from their leaves, lotuses are able to thrive and access as much sunlight and water as possible. What if we, like the lotus, could let the trials and tribulations of everyday life slip away, and emerge unscathed and whole? Suffering results when we lose sight of our true sense of self and absorb everyday frustrations instead of letting these feelings fall away. Inspired by Buddhist and Vedic psychology, The Lotus Effect will help you rediscover who you are by clarifying what you are not. Through the contemplative “identity detox” exercises and meditations in this book, you’ll learn to let go of stress, worry, anger, suffering, and need for approval as naturally as the lotus sheds mud from its leaves. As you practice detaching yourself from life’s disappointments, frustrations, and fears, you’ll take the first steps toward strengthening your core “lotus self” so that you, too, will possess the resilience to blossom, no matter the circumstances.
