Description
Brain fog is real—and it can cloud your thinking, sap your creativity and motivation, and take the joy right out of life. This book offers quick, proven-effective solutions to help you cut through the haze and think clearly.Do you ever feel spaced out or stuck in a rut, like you just can’t think, or you’re moving in slow motion? Perhaps you feel detached or disengaged, defeated and hopeless, or just not fully yourself. If you’re struggling with a lack of mental clarity, energy, and belief in yourself and your capabilities, you may be experiencing the dreaded brain fog—a very real issue that can result from the exhaustion, overstimulation, and the stress of modern life.
All of us struggle to find the get-up-and-go we need sometimes, but when prolonged stress and anxiety begin to affect your ability to focus, concentrate, remember, solve problems, or communicate effectively on a regular basis, these symptoms may point to something more than just a stressful week. It’s time to clear away the fog and reclaim your motivation, passion, self-worth, zest, and meaning in life.Based on cutting-edge research, Overcoming Stress-Induced Brain Fog offers quick solutions you can put to work right away, including exercises based in awareness, mindfulness and acceptance, and self-compassion. With these ten easily accessible tools, you’ll find your way out of the haze toward clarity, improved memory, and a greater presence to enjoy life. Brain fog—that feeling of being overstimulated and stressed to the point where it affects the ability to focus, concentrate, or communicate effectively—is a very real issue for many people. The prolonged stress and anxiety that lead to brain fog can decrease motivation, passion, and even one’s sense of self-worth. This book presents proven-effective skills from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and neuroscience, and offers readers ten powerful and accessible approaches for cutting through the haze and reclaiming control.
