Description
Dear Reader,
I have written this workbook for you to use as a guide on how to drop anchor when life, and the world around you, gets too daunting. It's filled with exercises and information for when you're suddenly forced to confront the hard truths or as I like to call them the BIG SIX realities difficult emotions, uncertainty, loneliness, change, dissatisfaction and death.It isn't just about how to get through a pandemic... Or the post-pandemic fall-out. It is a WAKE UP call. One that will increase your awareness of every moment through mindfulness.So SCRIBBLE in it. DOODLE in it. Take it EVERYWHERE. No one is going to see what's inside but you. This is not just another self-help book. Think of it as an evolve-yourself book.I do hope it helps you hold the rudder straight, no matter how turbulent the waves, and that you come out the other end buoyant, with a new appreciation for the privilege of life.Love RUBY xCritic Reviews

About the Author
Ruby Wax is a successful comedian, TV writer and performer who also holds a Master's degree in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy from Oxford University, and was awarded an OBE in 2015 for her services to mental health.
Addressing issues such as change, uncertainty and loneliness, Ruby uses her mindfulness expertise to show the reader how to be better prepared. Contains practical advice, with easy to follow, step-by-step exercises to better deal with whatever life throws at you. Dear Reader, I have written this workbook filled with exercises and information so that hopefully next time there's a catastrophe, from a small scale one (your dog is missing or you forgot to return an email) to another big world crisis (the spread of a future variant caused by people in Utah eating aliens), you'll be better prepared. I hope the book can help you hold the rudder straight even in a squall and come out the other end buoyant. I know nothing about warding off another virus, immunologist, vaccines aren't my thing but I do know how and what to do with the mind. Not because I'm a naturally born 'Enlightened One' but because I studied, practised and still practise mindfulness. Anyone, after 100 reps of tummy crunches at the gym will eventually develop a muscle, unless they're cheating, same thing with mindfulness. So wherever we are, this workbook is for you, to hopefully steady and strengthen the mind muscles to be able to take on the whips and arrows of outrageous fortune or whatever's slung at us in the future and to better survive this life. Love, Ruby x
