Description

Some of us are getting by through super-efficient routines that, while they may have served us once, are not serving us now. There are others who suffer from addictions and patterns of negative thinking that too often spiral into depression. For others still, life has lost its spark or the well of creativity has run dry.

In Better in Every Sense, Dr Zindel Segal and Dr Norman Farb - two distinguished neuroscientists - explain how to break out of negative patterns and habits by fully engaging our senses. This science-based book features exercises and practical advice for us to develop resilience, well-being, health and creativity.

Reviews

A brilliant, user-friendly, and easy-to-implement framework explaining why intentionally tuning in to our senses and learning how to trust them and expand their repertoire in outside-the-box ways-what the authors call 'sense foraging'-is profoundly liberative and healing, revolutionary, and yet totally commonsensical. -- Jon Kabat-Zinn
When you are feeling stressed or stuck, how do you relate to your life In Better in Every Sense the authors take us through the science of tools to get out of the 'house of habit' and offer ways to re-engage with your life.
