Synopsis

Most of us believe that in order to achieve anything worthwhile, whether in our careers, family life, health or even on the sports field, we have to work hard and apply a lot of effort. In fact, just the opposite is true. In The Art of Effortless Living, Dr. Ingrid Bacci offers compelling evidence that the most productive, creative and healthiest individuals are those who practice effortless living. By doing less, paradoxical as it may seem, they achieve more. In this book you will meet individuals who have transformed their lives in radically simple ways:
The executive whose influence over her colleagues increased dramatically after she began a deceptively simple relaxation
The patient who eliminated thirty years of suffering from migraines after ten training sessions in releasing unconscious muscle tension.
The golf player who corrected his golf swing in one brief session, using a series of visualization exercises.
This book shows you how to dissolve conscious and unconscious stress through simple techniques that replace effort with effortlessness. The result is a more rewarding lifestyle that leads to physical vitality, increased productivity, creative relationships and the freedom to express your best self.
