Do Less Be More
In today's fast-paced world, fitting in one more task often feels useful, productive, even satisfying, but it's not always the best use of a spare moment.
Do Less Be More explores how to unleash your greatest potential by banning busyness and making space for what's most important to you. Based on the latest brain research, you'll find out why your mind works better and your productivity improves when you slow down, say no, stay still, and embrace silence.
21 simple exercises in this book, such as keeping a 'not to do' list and pressing your 'inner pause button' will help you reclaim space for fresh ideas, deep insights, and true meaning. So ban busy, slow down, and live and inspired life! (Published 2017)
One Moment Please
Studies suggest attention spans are declining, distraction is growing, and we're more concerned than ever about losing the ability to perform the simple but crucial act of paying attention.
When you harness the power of attention, life changes in surprising ways: relationships deepen, experiences become more meaningful and things unfold with greater harmony.
One Moment Please is a wake-up call, reminding us that attention is a precious gift and it's time to use it wisely. (Published 2015)
Wired for Life
Wired for Life explains why we think, decide and act the way we do. It explores the five fears commonly triggered by our brains' threat response - fear of failure, fear of losing control, fear of standing out, fear of missing out, and fear of facing the truth - and how these fears creep undetected into so many parts of our lives, impairing our ability to experience happiness, freedom, success and fulfilment.
Wired for Life helps you understand your brain and provides insights into why you get the results you do. Once you understand this, you will realise that changing your mind can actually change your life. (Published 2012)
Spiritually Loose, by Susan Pearse
Spiritually Loose is an antidote for the modern-world diseases of emptiness, regret and disappointment. It’s a revolution that says it’s ok to be spiritual and loose, humble and confident, reverent and cheeky, patient and intolerant, brave and vulnerable, deep and superficial. Above all, it’s a reminder that it’s perfect to just be you.
Spiritually Loose is the story of one woman’s search for more. Susan’s journey took her around the world, from rave parties in Ibiza, to jazz bars in New York; from lectures on quantum physics in Italy, to classes on philosophy in Australia; from traditional hula dancing in Hawaii, to qualifying as a Kundalini yoga teacher in Spain. Instead of finding answers, she found rules. Instead of joy, she found judgement. Once she stopped looking outside and listening to the gurus, she realised there was a voice inside her, present from childhood, whispering quiet messages of love, acceptance and joy.
