Synopsis

Ten To Zen sets out a straightforward morning practice intended to help clear the mind before the day’s demands begin. It highlights how many people routinely spend around ten minutes showering and ten minutes preparing and eating breakfast, yet often set aside no time to settle their thoughts.

The book brings together Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychotherapy and EMDR within a single programme. It also outlines skills such as settling the mind quickly, improving focus, retraining responses to stress, reshaping unhelpful thinking patterns and developing more effective communication.
