Still time to get in that summer reading​

Why not use the summer to catch up on some summer reading. More importantly, use it to tackle those habits and traps that hold you back. Here are four books that can help you:

Beyond Your Confines: The key to free your mind

Beyond Your Confines introduces you to the mental prisons we create for ourselves, including our intolerance of uncertainty and the narrative fallacies we create. Some argue that the growth in technology has trapped us further in these mental prisons, so now, more than ever, we need to reach beyond our confines to free our minds and benefit from our inner wisdom and natural rhythms.

Beyond Your Confines: The Workbook

Based on the popular Beyond Your Confines comes the invaluable companion guide to using your nervous system to free your mind. Empowering, resourceful, a practical guide all in one, Beyond Your Confines: The Workbook is an essential guide to using your nervous system to break free of your mental prison and free your mind.

The Beast of Gloom: A children's book about depression

Help your child learn that difficult feelings are inevitable, and how you respond to it makes all the difference. Compassion and talking to others are just two of the strategies suggested in this book. Beautifully illustrated by Theodore Key, with words from a psychotherapist, this is an essential guide to help kids realize that it doesn’t have to be scary to talk to children about depression. Help them to learn about how to recognize depression, and what to do about it.

Beyond the Blue
