Finding Purpose, Meaning and Wisdom Beyond the Midpoint of Life

It's a lot, we say. And it's true - sometimes everyday life feels like too much. So what habits can we prioritise for mental clarity and creative verve? How can we continue to do what's normal and necessary but wind back to care for our basic human needs? In this gentle, wise and actionable guide, best-selling author and respected health journalist Jodi Wilson explores the simple, evidence-based changes we can make to give our brains the breathing space they need. After a lifetime with anxiety, Jodi wanted to better understand herself so she could continue to be creative and productive without slipping into overwhelm and exhaustion. In this fascinating exploration of the brain and body, she discovers that neuroscientists and psychologists, as well as artists and sustainable living experts, all agree on the one habit that can change how we live. It's something our ancestors had in abundance but we've essentially eradicated from our lives: free time, spare time, leisure time - real space to breathe. The modern concept of self-care we've been sold doesn't help - it costs us time and money and keeps us on an unsustainable treadmill. No one is making any money when we choose to rest and do less, yet it's the proven antidote to modern stress. Instead of looking ahead for answers, we need to consider our evolutionary biology; our brains were designed for life 10,000 years ago, so what would our ancestors have found helpful? A Brain That Breathes is full of accessible and practical suggestions to embrace the power of 'enoughness', 'soft fascination' and intentional 'not-doing' so you can declutter your mind, restore your attention, and live every day with breathing space.

Essential habits for an overwhelming world | What our brains really need to be happy, healthy and productive

A Brain That Breathes

Discover the funny, heartfelt novel about love, regret and second chances from real-life married couple writers Josie Lloyd and Emlyn Rees. What would you do if you could go back and change anything in your life? Adam and Jules have been married for twenty-five years when they discover a time machine in their garden shed. Miraculously powered by the old mixtapes they've given each other over the years, it allows them to travel back to pivotal moments in their relationship. They can now relive the moments that made them fall in love. Fix the mistakes. Choose differently. Perfect everything. But soon they discover that playing 'what if' is as dangerous as it is addictive. As the ripple effects spiral out of control, can they find a way back to their messy, glorious real life? Or will they lose each other forever? If it was you, what would you dare to change? 'Such a fun story... pure escapism. It makes you ask yourself many, many questions. About the past and what you might do differently and what you wouldn't change at all. Brilliant written' FEARNE COTTON 'Thought provoking, moving and really really funny' LISA JEWELL 'An unforgettable read. I loved this book' LAURIE GILMORE A heartwarming insight into love after your happily ever after' GILLIAN ANDERSON 'Witty, relatable, and packed full of nostalgia' PAIGE TOON REAL READERS LOVE YOU &amp; ME: 'Nostalgic, fun, easy to read - loved it!' ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ 'Pack it in your suitcase!' ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ 'This is going to be the book you see on every beach in Summer 2026' ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ 'Lovely easy reading romantic story' ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ 'I didn't want it to end' ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ '90s nostalgia at its best!' ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ 'A beautiful novel.

“Mind-expanding . . . The Score is so exuberant and readable that the depth and seriousness of its insights almost sneak up on you.” —Jennifer Szalai, The New York Times “Brilliant and wildly original . . . The Score is socially attentive, historically literate and imbued with sensual glee.” —Becca Rothfeld, The Washington Post “I give this excellent book five stars.” —Stuart Jeffries, Financial Times A philosophy of games to help us win back control over what we value The philosopher C. Thi Nguyen—one of the leading experts on the philosophy of games and the philosophy of data—takes us deep into the heart of games, and into the depths of bureaucracy, to see how scoring systems shape our desires. Games are the most important art form of our era. They embody the spirit of free play. They show us the subtle beauty of action everywhere in life in video games, sports, and boardgames—but also cooking, gardening, fly-fishing, and running. They remind us that it isn’t always about outcomes, but about how glorious it feels to be doing the thing. And the scoring systems help get us there, by giving us new goals to try on. Scoring systems are also at the center of our corporations and bureaucracies—in the form of metrics and rankings. They tell us exactly how to measure our success. They encourage us to outsource our values to an external authority. And they push on us to value simple, countable things. Metrics don’t capture what really matters; they only capture what’s easy to measure. The price of that clarity is our independence. The Score asks us is this the game you really want to be playing?

Diario Para Líderes (HBR Daily Leader Spanish Edition)

Do you wish you could decode people? Do you want a formula for charisma? Do you want to know exactly what to say to your boss, your date or your networking partner? You need to know how people work. As a human behaviour investigator, Vanessa Van Edwards studies the hidden forces that drive our behaviour patterns in her lab - and she's cracked the code. In Captivate she shares a wealth of shortcuts, systems and behaviour hacks derived from her research, to help you take charge of interactions at work and at home. You'll learn how to execute a social game plan to navigate any social situation; how to speed-read faces for 7 universal 'micro-expressions' that can be used to predict people's emotions; and much more besides. When you understand the laws of human behaviour you can get along with anyone. With Vanessa's help, you will never interact in the same way again.

The Science of Succeeding with People

I've always been told that if I was good, I'd attract good things. So then, why am I unhappy? From a young age, women are taught to put everyone else first. The result? A society full of 'Good Girls', pushing themselves to meet expectations while ignoring their own needs. But it doesn't have to be this way. In this whip-smart and empowering book, psychotherapist Marta Martínez Novoa explains that people pleasing is not a personality failing, but a common response to trauma - an instinct to become more appealing to a threat, and a way to feel safe. Taking you on a journey into your past, this book will help you understand why you feel the way you do in the present, and gives you practical tools to build a future where you feel bolder, safer and more confident in everything you do. If you're done being a people pleaser and ready to start living for you, this is your toolkit to wake up and finally take charge.

'An exquisite book that reminds us our minds aren't soloists but symphony players: we are wired for connection.'."-David Eagleman, PhD, author of Incognito and Livewired 'A must-read for anyone who wants to feel better and live longer, one conversation at a time!' - Dr. Karan Rajan, author of This Book May Save Your Life From your morning coffee order, to weaving through passengers on the train, sitting through tense work meetings, riding in a packed elevator, attending a happy hour with colleagues, or relaxing on the couch with family, every day is filled with social interactions that nurture and support your brain's health. Whether mundane or extraordinary, they collectively make up the 'social diet' that you feed your brain, that influences your well-being, shapes your experience, and, done right, even lengthens your life. In an age of isolation, WHY BRAINS NEED FRIENDS is a neuroscience-backed guide to social interactions, drawing insights from the world of science to help you understand the biology behind your relationships, reconsider the value of companionship, and build a healthier, happier, and more connected life. It's not just what you feed your brain that matters - it's who.
