How to Calm Your Mind offers a toolkit of accessible,
science-backed strategies that reveal how the path to a less
anxious life, and even greater productivity, runs directly through
calm. When productivity expert Chris Bailey discovered that he had
become stressed and burnt out because he was pushing himself too
hard, he realized that he had no right to be giving advice on
productivity without learning when and how to rein things in and
take a break. Productivity advice works – and we need it now more
than ever – but it’s just as important that we also develop our
capacity for calm. By finding calm and overcoming anxiety, we
don’t just feel more comfortable in our own skin, we invest in
the missing piece that leads our efforts to become sustainable over
time. We build a deeper, more expansive reservoir of energy to draw
from throughout the day, and have greater mental resources at our
disposal not only to do good work, but also to live a good life.
Among the topics How to Calm Your Mind covers are: - How analogue
and digital worlds affect calm and anxiety in different ways; - How
our desire for dopamine breeds anxiety; - How hidden sources of
stress can be tamed by a ‘stimulation fast’; - How
‘busyness’ is as much a state of mind as it is an actual state
of life. The pursuit of calm ultimately leads us to become more
engaged, focused and deliberate – while making us more productive
and satisfied with our lives overall. In an anxious world,
achieving calm is the best lifehack around.
