Although many of us prioritize our physical health through exercise and healthy eating, we often forget to spend time boosting our mind, mood, and mental health. Yet the mind is the source of all our thoughts, words, and actions; when our thinking is unhealthy, our lives will be unhealthy–even if we go to the gym seven times a week and eat kale every day.

It is so important that we focus on mental self-care and reducing daily stress, since mental toughness and resilience will get us through difficult times and help us achieve success in every area of our lives. Using the incredible power of our minds, we can persist and grow in response to life’s challenges.

Let bestselling author and neuroscientist Dr. Caroline Leaf help you change your life by changing your mind with 101 simple ways to reduce stress. With simple strategies for mental self-care, we can change the way we think and how we live our lives.

A communication pathologist and cognitive neuroscientist has brought us a quick and easy discussion on how we can painlessly make our lives easier. Dr. Caroline Leaf describes many things that can help. Each tip is described in its own short chapter. Those bite-sized bits alone simplify things.
