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, along with links to downloadable audio in which the author guides the reader through fundamental Open-Focus exercises that can be used on a regular basis to enhance our health and well-being.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 Open-Focus Brain offers readers a revolutionary, drug-free way to: • alleviate depression, anxiety, and ADD • reduce stress-related chronic pain • optimize mental and physical performance

New York Times best-selling author Kimberly Snyder shares her modern take on ancient teachings to help you unlock the secrets of your heart's true potential and reclaim your personal power, energy, and vitality. New York Times best-selling author Kimberly Snyder shows that your heart is not just a muscle pumping blood through your body or a metaphor for sentimental love. It is a center of profound intelligence. When you learn to work with your heart and harness your heart intelligence, you create heart coherence, or more efficient communication between your heart, brain, and nervous system. In doing that, you can access a far deeper intelligence--heart intelligence--that infuses the whole of your life with a different kind of synergistic power, paving the path to your best performance, higher health, incredible relationships, and the ability to find better solutions throughout your day, no matter what you are doing. There are five progressive stages that make up the process of awakening your heart intelligence and heart coherence, as well as unlocking the energetic, or spiritual, heart. These five stages of heart awakening are inspired by the teachings of the revered yoga guru Swami Sri Yukteswar, guru to Paramahansa Yogananda. The Five Hearts are as follows: The Dark HeartThe Propelled HeartThe Steady HeartThe Devoted Heart>As she did in You Are More Than You Think You Are, Kimberly shares a modern perspective on ancient teachings through the lens of her own spiritual journey and experiences of the heart as well as the latest research in science, psychology, and personal transformation. Using practical exercises, meditations, and journaling prompts, Kimberly teaches that following your heart does not mean going along with strong, obsessive, or erratic thoughts and emotions--whether they are anger, desire, worry, infatuation, or fear--that ultimately limit the quality of your life. Instead, heart intelligence is calm, intuitive, and emotionally intelligent; it gives you access to more mental clarity and to expansive solutions that are the best for your life in the long term. It puts your body, mind, and life into peak performance.
