Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Are you stuck in a rut but don't have the time, money or energy to get out? It's simpler than you think. By encouraging you to make small, personal decisions, this book will help you stop scrolling through other people's stories so that you can start focusing on your own.

We have choice in every moment of our lives. We can choose to say 'yes' or 'no' to an invitation, a job, a partner. We just have to practise cultivating that choice. Change Your Life in an Hour urges you to take back control of how you choose to spend your time - and subsequently your life.

Laura Archer first realised the power of small choices when she started reclaiming her lunch breaks and using them to achieve personal goals. In this, her second book, she inspires you to target your mental, emotional, and physical health through simple but empowering actions that can fit around any lifestyle.

The book focuses on three centres of activity:
Head - Looking at how important good mental health is, and how we can achieve it through guiding our thoughts and the stimulus we input to our minds daily.
Heart - As a society that prioritises rationality and empiricism, our hearts sometimes get left behind, as we listen to our heads first. This section focuses on activities to make your heart sing.
Hands - We spend our days on computers and smart phones, but as humans we are makers and creators, and using our hands is part of our make-up. This section of the book encourages you to reconnect with the world around you.

This book is not restrictive. It is as much about embracing good food, wine and love, as it is about focusing on yoga and meditation. Are you ready to change YOUR life?
