In a world filled with too many choices, oppressive technology, and relentlessly overbooked schedules—how do we achieve the calm we so desperately need? Our ancestors used the fight-or-flight mechanism to protect themselves from predators. Today, we use it to fend off daily crises. The result is chronic stress and a learned inability to be calm which, in turn, makes it impossible for us to perform at our peak. Now, Dr. Gayatri Devi shows how we can cultivate empowering, enduring calm by tapping into our body’s vagus nerve—and utilize our hardwired, natural relaxation system. If you are suffering from migraines, neck pain, gastrointestinal upsets, sleeps deprivation—or are just trying to work through life’s difficulties—Dr. Devi shows that you don’t need more drugs, you need A Calm Brain. “For anyone who wants to take charge of the 21st century while remaining calm, focused, and productive—this is the book for you.” —Henry S. Lodge, New York Times bestselling author of Younger Next Year

Stress is pervasive in our western society like never before. As life moves faster and becomes more complicated, our ability to adapt and thrive becomes harder. It is no wonder that many of us are stressed. Whether manifesting as fear, worry, anxiety, sadness, loneliness, boredom, or even depression, stress is debilitating and can limit you-physically, mentally, and emotionally. We are told that we need to try and manage stress, but practically speaking, stress cannot be "managed." The only lasting way to overcome stress is to "eliminate" it from our lives. Calm Brain, Powerful Mind: Abolish Stress to Unleash Your True Potential is a comprehensive and seminal self-help book about how a person can eliminate stress from their lives in order to access the inherent power of their mind. There are many books that discuss ways of controlling stress, but this non-academic text, which links the relationship between developments in neuroscience, quantum physics, behavioral epigenetics, and neuroplasticity to stress, mental health, emotional intelligence, developmental psychology, and the teachings on meditation from the East, seeks to help the reader understand the true causes of stress, and how the various parts of the brain are critical in its development... and ultimately, in its removal. When you understand the true nature of reality and the relationship between your brain and your authentic self, you will see that stressful thoughts are not real, but rather are based on your memories of "failures and mistakes" of the past, or the "what if possibilities" of the future, both of which are NOT important. You learn that your transition to a sustainable, stress-free life is gradual at first, but through practice, it will grow until you suddenly experience a dramatic, instant, and permanent mind shift-one that crosses the threshold of lasting happiness, peace, and prosperity. Aziz Velji's "holistic" approach will rewire your brain into a completely new way of thinking (and behaving)-one that is resilient, permanent, transformative, and non-reversible. This book gives you the knowledge, the tools (like conscious breathing, mindfulness, and meditation), and the confidence needed to achieve your personal breakthrough, where you can finally tap into the underlying power of your mind-one that is no longer burdened or influenced by stress. With this newfound power, you will gain much greater confidence, courage, and focus. You will also think more clearly and creatively, make better decisions, become aware, attentive, and happy, and ultimately achieve anything that you desire in life.

This e-book is a shorter version of the paperback, with the same beautifully designed content excluding the practical exercise pages - perfect to dip in and out, and choose which bits work best for you. Join the Calm revolution. Modern life is hectic and relentless: trains delayed, endless emails filling the inbox, kids squabbling before bedtime... There has never been a more important time to rediscover your pause button. Calm is the book that will show you how to take back a little bit of peace, space and all-important calm. This book contains the simple tools, tricks and habits that will change the rest your life. It is a practical and pleasurable guide to twenty-first century mindfulness. Regular meditation is medically proven to be good for you - it increases focus and creativity, productivity and job satisfaction, mental and even physical health. But in reality most of us don't have time to sit on a cushion with our eyes closed for half an hour every day. And many people associate meditation with hard work and huge lifestyle shifts: you might be imagining Buddhist monks locked in a mountain retreat and living off gruel... This is where Calm comes in. Calm is about simple, achievable habits that work with the demands of your busy life instead of pretending those demands don't exist. Calm does not require specialist training: it uses abilities that every single one of us is born with, like creativity, spontaneity and simply noticing the world around you. Calm is not a set of rules that you need to worry about following or breaking. It is inspirational, practical and non-prescriptive. Onerous, time-consuming meditation might seem out of reach but everyone can achieve calm - including you. Calm combines extracts from fascinating neurological research with wisdom from history's great thinkers and the real-life experiences of individuals across the globe. It demystifies mindfulness and shows you the many simple ways to be mindful while carrying on with your life. It is also a beautifully crafted object, filled with artwork and artistry, that will change your perspective by showing you the pleasures of the world anew. Take a walk with nowhere to go, savour a chocolate on the tip of your tongue, plant a seed, doodle aimlessly, turn off your mobile phone for five short minutes. Smile, breathe and go slowly. Michael Acton Smith has written a game-changing book, one that will finally balance everyone's need for calm with the realities of modern life. Join the Calm revolution. Calm your mind; change your world. Calm.com @calm

Author of the viral Medium piece, "Poor and Traumatized at Harvard," Due Quach shares her Calm Clarity program to show readers how to deal with toxic stress and adversity. We often don't realize how much control we have over our thoughts, feelings, and actions--on some days, the most minor irritation can upset us, but on others, we are in our best form and can rise to challenges with grace. These fluctuations depend on the neural networks firing in our brains, and we have the power to consciously break hardwired thought patterns. Due Quach developed an intimate understanding of the brain during her personal journey of healing from post-traumatic stress disorder. According to Quach, people function in three primary emotional states: Brain 1.0, Brain 2.0, and Brain 3.0. In Brain 1.0, people act out of fear and self-preservation. Brain 2.0 involves instant gratification and chasing short-term rewards at the expense of long-term well-being. Brain 3.0 is a state of mind that Quach calls "Calm Clarity," in which people's actions are aligned with their core values. As Quach confronted PTSD and successfully weaned herself off medication, she learned how to activate, exercise, and strengthen Brain 3.0 like a muscle. In Calm Clarity, she draws on the latest scientific research and ancient spiritual traditions alike to show us how we too can take ownership of our thoughts, feelings, and actions in order to be our best selves.
