Mary Flaherty, a veteran psychologist, yogi, meditator and seasoned traveller, shares and distils her vast knowledge to teach us how to make the best of our lives and our minds.
This book helps us to navigate and untie our complex and tangled inner lives with 12 proven “Keys to a Contented Life”. Each of them is presented in accessible language, using stories from scientific studies, monks and mystics, her own mother’s wisdom and a myriad of fascinating facts from psychology.
The reader is left with a set of practical tools that they can integrate into their lives immediately to help them be more content and retrain their brains, learning to nudge their perspectives into healthier and happier positions. Interspersed among the 12 “Keys to a Contented Life”, the reader is introduced to some mind-blowing (and mind-changing) insights on how our brains work, helping us understand both ourselves and others.
This is a book to come back to again and again. It’s real contribution to this field is its simplicity. Whilst acknowledging that life can be difficult and stressful, Mary’s book delivers the “Keys” for changing our brains and learning to be content, into our own hands. The author’s original cartoons help the reader to further enjoy the journey.
This book is a must-read for anyone looking to understand how their mind works and how to use that information to make the most of their life.
