Do you ever feel stuck in perfectionism, procrastination, "should", worry, regret or negative self talk? If so, you are not alone! We are all gloriously dysfunctional because we're wielding the most powerful machine on the planet (the human mind), and no one taught us how to use it. That stops today! You're holding in your hands the Human Mind Owner's Manual that you never knew existed. We all inherit faulty programming and mind viruses from our parents, teachers and society. As a result, we operate on autopilot, our thinking is irrational, and our negative monkey mind sabotages our lives. It's time to give your monkey mind a banana. This book is the banana! This book will teach you how your mind works, including the #1 most important thing you could ever understand about yourself:Your thoughts are what create your emotions, your behaviors, and ultimately your reality, and because you can CHOOSE YOUR THOUGHTS you can master your emotions and your destiny. This book is based on the two psychological frameworks that are at the root of modern positive psychology: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT).

Are you tired of being stressed out, frustrated, and unable to stop negative thinking? Are you ready to finally live fully aware, awake, and alive? Then we invite you to take the 21 Day Mindfulness and Meditation Challenge! For most people, the chaos and noise happening around them and within their own minds feels like all there is. They live in a constant state of reactivity, being pushed and pulled by the thoughts and emotions they experience. Everyone has a voice in their head, including you. The good news-perhaps the best news anyone can ever hear-is that this voice is not who you are. You are the presence that witnesses the voice, but you are not the voice. Knowing this allows you to observe what your inner voice is doing and thinking. This is called self-observation or self-awareness. The process for developing this awareness is called MINDFULNESS. Until you develop self-awareness and mindfulness, you will likely live much of your life on auto pilot, feeling like you have little control over your thoughts, emotions, or life. Simply developing this awareness is the key that unlocks all of your power: power to direct your own inner voice, choose better-feeling emotions, and making better decisions. Here is what you will be doing in the 21 Day Challenge: -In Week 1 you'll practice enjoying the present moment and learning how to be mindful in everyday life. -In Week 2 you'll learn to be the observer of your thoughts and emotions so you can master your monkey mind and manage negative emotions. -In Week 3 you'll take what you've learned and use it to develop self-compassion, get other people out of your head, and practice being more present with others. In just 20 minutes a day, for 3 weeks, you will learn 50+ mindfulness and meditation techniques that will help you reduce stress, manage negative emotions, and enjoy your life more.

Have you heard the call of your true self, reminding you of your forgotten dreams?Have you felt drawn to break free of your limitations and live more authentically?Is there a fire within you that burns fiercely, even after years of trying to snuff it out?Transformation happens. Sometimes it sneaks up on us after years of quiet suffering. Other times it is the inevitable side effect of a life struck by a sudden tsunami of unwanted change and pain. Sometimes we dive head-first into the journey we feel called to, but other times we cling desperately to "what was", like a terrified butterfly unwilling to let go of the empty casing that once housed the caterpillar. Life is exhausting, painful, and dark when trapped in the cell of our resistance to change. The truth is we cannot always control what happens in our lives, but we can control what we do with it. We have a choice-we can submit to a life of mediocrity and unfulfillment, or we can decide that life is supposed to be MORE-that we have a greater purpose for being here and we will do whatever it takes to determine our own destiny. We invite you embark on a quest-a hero's journey. Along the way, you'll no longer see your pain or challenges as obstacles, but instead you'll see them as steppingstones to a greater purpose. You'll stop allowing others to write the chapters of your life story, and you'll decide, once and for all, to live life on your terms.This book is designed to help you:?Identify the blocks that hold you back, so you can become unstoppable. ?Overcome fear of change, rejection and failure, so you can feel confident going for your dream.?Develop self-mastery by reprogramming limiting beliefs. ?Develop a growth mindset, so you know without a doubt that nothing can stand in your way again.?Get absolutely clear about what you REALLY want and who you REALLY are, so you can stop living everyone else's dreams.So, will you answer the call?

Our brains are doing our best to help us out, but they can be real assholes sometimes. Sometimes it seems like your own brain is out to get you—melting down in the middle of the grocery store, picking fights with your date, getting you addicted to something, or shutting down completely at the worst possible moments. You already told your brain firmly that it isn't good to do these things. But your brain has a mind of its own. That's where this book comes in. With humor, patience, and lots of swearing, Dr. Faith shows you the science behind what's going on in your skull and talks you through the process of retraining your brain to respond appropriately to the non-emergencies of everyday life. If you're working to deal with old traumas, or if you just want to have a more measured and chill response to situations you face all the time, this book can help you put the pieces of the puzzle together and get your life and brain back.Here's an excerpt from the book:Knowing what’s going on up in your brain is HUGE. So much of how we interact with the world around us is a completely normal response when we take into account our past experiences and how our brains work. • Freaking the fuck out • Avoiding important shit we need to take care of • Feeling pissed off all the time • Being a dick to people we care about • Putting shit in our bodies that we know isn’t good for us • Doing shit we know is dumb or pointlessNone of these things are fucking helpful. But they all make sense.Your brain has adapted to the circumstances in your life and started doing things to protect you, bless it. It’s not TRYING to fuck you over (even though it totally is, at times).As we navigate the world, nasty shit happens. The brain stores info about the nasty shit to try to avoid it in the future. Sometimes these responses are helpful. Sometimes the responses become a bigger problem than the actual problem was. It’s called a trauma reaction.And even if you aren’t dealing with a specific trauma? Adaptive coping strategies, bad habits, and funky behaviors all wire in similar ways. And research is showing that these issues are actually some of the easier ones to treat in therapy … if we address what’s really going on, rather than just the symptoms.

Being a life coach is a fulfilling way to make money doing what you love, while making a difference! But, the truth is that not all life coaches are successful. Some never learn the skills they need to create a thriving business, and others get stuck because they're only able to reach a certain level of success, and income, by meeting one-on-one with clients. There is only so much time in a day, some of which is spent on marketing and other business-related-stuff. Once a coach fills their schedule with clients, they reach the ceiling of their growth. Their only option is to raise their rates, but this isn't always easy or even appropriate, depending on the population they serve. The good news is that there is a way to serve more people and increase revenue at the same time. The secret to creating a successful life coaching business is offering group life coaching programs. Think about it, much of what you do with each client is exactly the same. If you say the same thing 10 times to 10 different people, why not say it to all of them at once? If you develop a program out of your coaching process, you can walk a group of people through the same coaching activities and steps, together. By creating a group coaching business, you can: 1) reach more people in less time, 2) offer an easy-to-sell low-cost option, 3) upsell your favorite clients to one-on-one coaching, 4) create a more predictable schedule and income, and 5) increase your per-hour revenue ($50 x 10 is greater than $150 x 1). In this book, you will find the exact blueprint that thousands of our life coaching students have used to create their own group life coaching programs. You'll learn everything you need to: 1) turn the process you use with your clients into a complete group coaching curriculum, 2) learn professional communication and facilitation skills so you can effectively manage and lead your group, and 3) structure your offer, set your price, and create marketing campaigns that fill your groups.

A breakthrough, drug-free approach to stress and stress-related illnesses—from anxiety and depression to ADHD and chronic pain—using simple attention exercises with powerful results on physical and mental health This breakthrough book presents a disarmingly simple idea: The way we pay attention in daily life can play a critical role in our health and well-being. According to Dr. Les Fehmi, a clinical psychologist and researcher, many of us have become stuck in "narrow-focus attention": a tense, constricted, survival mode of attention that holds us in a state of chronic stress—and which lies at the root of common ailments including anxiety, depression, ADD, stress-related migraines, and more. To improve these conditions, Dr. Fehmi explains that we must learn to return to a relaxed, diffuse, and creative form of attention, which he calls "Open Focus." This highly readable and empowering book offers straightforward explanations and simple exercises on how to shift into a more calm, open style of attention that reduces stress, improves health, and enhances performance. The Open-Focus Brain features eight essential attention exercises for improving health. Dr. Fehmi writes, "Everyone has the ability to heal their nervous systems, to dissolve their pain, to slow down and yet accomplish more, to experience the deeper side of life—in short, to change their lives for the better dramatically." At last readers can learn the techniques that Dr. Fehmi has offered to thousands of clients—the same drug-free, safe, and effective techniques that have led to remarkable and long-lasting results. The eBook includes a downloadable audio program that provides further guidance on: • essential attention exercises from the book, led by Dr. Fehmi • how to "train the brain" to reduce stress, anxiety, chronic pain, and more • safe and effective techniques used in Dr. Fehmi's clinic for decades
