A Mindfulness Guide for the Frazzled
Five hundred years ago no one died of stress: we invented this concept and now we let it rule us. In A Mindfulness Guide for the Frazzled, Ruby Wax shows us how to de-frazzle for good by making simple changes that give us time to breathe, reflect and live in the moment. It's an easy-to-understand introduction to mindfulness, weaved together with Ruby's trademark wit and humour.
How to Be Human: The Manual
By treating ourselves more like machines and less like humans, always chasing what's 'better', we've forgotten the 4 billion years of evolution that makes us human. I wrote
this book with a little help from a monk, who explains how the mind works, and a neuroscientist who explains what makes us 'us' in the brain. We answer every question you've ever had about: evolution, thoughts, emotions, the body, addictions, relationships, kids, the future and compassion. How to be Human is the only manual you'll need to help you upgrade your mind.
