Think deeply, feel deeply—and develop tools to deal with the world as it really is

In a world which can sometimes be challenging, frightening, overwhelming and complex, it's not surprising that sometimes we don't feel okay. This is what makes us human, but so often we are tempted to push those difficult feelings away or distract ourselves. We reach for our phone, we switch on Netflix, we over-work...but when do we stop and think about how we are really doing?

Psychotherapists Jodie Cariss and Chance Marshall, founders of the revolutionary practice Self Space, are passionate about the importance of 'mental maintenance'—the crucial work of looking after our own mental health, every single day. In this book, they unpack assumptions about 'mental illness' and 'mental wellness' to explain why each of us needs to rethink how we look after our mind and give it the attention it deserves.

You'll discover:

• How to resist the temptation to 'Marie Kondo' (tidy up) your feelings
• Ways to embrace your real self, messy bits included, and honour your potential
• The attitudes, everyday habits and non-negotiables that can transform your resilience

A toolkit for dealing with life's biggest challenges in your past, present and future

Their message is clear: when it comes to our mental health, quick-fixes are bullsh*t, but with true understanding and acceptance of yourself, you can thrive (not just survive).

Reseñas de la Crítica

"As with everything Colm Tóibín sets his masterful hand to, The Magician is a great imaginative achievement—immensely readable, erudite, worldly and knowing, and fully realized." (Richard Ford)

"No living novelist dramatizes artistic creation as profoundly, as luminously, as Colm Tóibín...reading him is among the deepest pleasures our literature can offer." (Garth Greenwell)

"This is not just a whole life in a novel, it's a whole world." (Katharina Volckmer)

The ultimate collections of suggestions

Sorry to say that this book is the worst book I have ever listened to in the past few years. The whole book has loads of information that is easy to find on the internet, that has no story to back it, that has no deep research or study explained. I heard 5 suggestions within 15 minutes of listening, and those suggestions flowed mid-air and then disappeared. Take it if you like fast-food-liked books, don’t waste your time if you need a deep reading that is lacking these days. Btw, the machine-liked reading tone is boring and made the content even more dry.
