About this listen
Stop for a moment. Are you here right now?
Is your focus on the words in front of you? Or is it roaming elsewhere, to the past or future, to a worry, to your to-do list, or to your phone?
The good news: there's nothing wrong with you - your brain isn't broken. The human brain was built to be distractible.
The even better news: you can train your brain to pay attention more effectively.
Acclaimed neuroscientist Dr Amishi Jha has dedicated her life's work to understanding the science of attention at every level - from brain-imaging studies in the lab to field testing soldiers, firefighters and athletes. Her mission has been to scientifically determine how we can harness the full power of our attention to better meet all that life demands. In Peak Mind, Dr Jha expertly guides listeners through fascinating research, debunking common assumptions about focus and attention, and offers remarkably easy-to-adapt flexible 12-minute-a-day exercises to lift the mental fog, declutter the mind and strengthen focus so that you can experience more of your life.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Neuroscience of attention and mindfulness
Excellent book detailing the neuroscience of mindfulness meditation. I have read several books on meditation, but this one resonated with me more than any other.

Terrible
Repeating and not getting to the point.
I am so irritated, having such high expectations and I just wasted my time.
The narrators voice didn't help.
No sorry you should have paid attention and though-about getting to the point.
