## Description

Bad habits can take a hefty toll on your health and happiness. In The Here-and-Now Habit , mindfulness expert Hugh Byrne provides powerful practices based in mindfulness and neuroscience to help you rewire your brain and finally break the habits that are holding you back from a meaningful life. Have you found yourself doing something and thinking, Why do I keep doing this? We all have an unhealthy habit—or two, or three. Yours may be as simple as wasting time on the Internet, constantly checking your e-mail, or spending too much time in front of the TV. Or, it may be more serious, like habitual drinking, emotional overeating, constant self-criticism, or chronic worrying. Whatever your harmful habit is—you have the power to break it. The Here-and-Now-Habit provides proven-effective techniques to help you stop existing on autopilot and start living in the here and now. You’ll learn how to cultivate mindfulness to calm and focus your mind, be aware of thoughts without identifying with them or believing they are true, deal with difficult emotions, and clarify your own intentions regarding unhealthy habits by asking yourself, What do I want? How important is it to me to make this change? By learning to pay attention to your thoughts and actions in the moment, you’ll discover how to let go of old patterns and create healthier habits and ways of living that will make you feel good about yourself. And when you feel good about you, you can do just about anything.

Review: Wonderful book, simple and practical advice and the reading I will keep coming back to. - I am so grateful I have read this book! If you would like to read a book that will help you put mindfulness into daily practise in your life, go ahead and read this book! It is practical, funny, inspiring and warm. I have learned a lot about myself as reading it naturally brings in reflection, helps you analyse your tendencies towards certain behaviors, not necessarily addictions, but for example things we do to distract ourselves, cravings that keep us hooked on things that are not useful or healthy. Hugh Byrne dissects the detailed aspects of habits, the way they form and how to break them. I found particularly helpful the analysis of four main kinds of habits (wanting, distraction, resistance and doing) and found myself reflected in so many! But it is not true this book is only about quitting an unhelpful or unhealthy habit. First and foremost it helps you to learn how to be kind to yourself and understand the need behind the habit. This book has been a wonderful companion in my attempts to become more disciplined with my practices, but not forgetting about being kind to myself. So yes, you can identify and put the finger on things that perhaps do not work perfectly in the way you operate, that prevents you from reaching your goals, or living up to the vision of yourself you would like to hold. But Byrne gives you the chance of gently showing the way of how to hold yourself in kindness instead of contempt and guilt, how to proceed with introducing mindfulness as the chance to take steps towards changing your actions. Finally, I am in pure awe every time I stumble upon a poem he drops in this book, they are so powerful, beautiful and thought-provoking that this alone makes me stop and pause in order to digest the words and its content. Wonderful book, simple and practical advice and the reading I will keep coming back to.
Review: Want to unplug? - This is an exceptional book on mindfulness. In our ever busy world, it is getting more difficult to stay in the here-and-now. There are so many distractions! The invention of the smartphone and smart watches has changed our world in ways that our descendents will no doubt study at great length. Mindfulness is not a new concept. It's been written about for thousands of years. To be simple about it, mindfullness is the act of being fully engaged in one's life in the present time. What am I doing NOW? This books hits on some very pertinent points for every one. When those tapes in our heads start to play about our past, there are tools to deal with and stop those tapes. If you are new to the concept of mindfullness, this is a great resource. If you want to get better at it, this book will help. If you just want to slow the world down in order to enjoy life more, this is a great tool. This book is written in an easy to read style. Not a lot of psychobabble in it. Not too much in technical terms, either. Not many words that you will need to look up in a dictionary, or the app on your smartphone. I will be ordering more to give to friends and family.
