Peak mind : find your focus, own your attention, invest 12 minutes a day
Jha, Amishi, 1970-2023
Books, Manuscripts
From the constant pull of technology to the 24-hour news cycle to the overwhelming demands of work, our ability to concentrate is being strained as never before. We're all suffering from a collective attention deficit disorder that is leaving us feeling scattered, overwhelmed, and anxious - yet unable to resist distractions like emails, Zoom calls, or new texts or notifications. We actually use 100% of our attention at every waking moment, but Dr Jha has discovered that unless we create room in our minds through specific and targeted daily practice, we cannot control what captures our attention leaving us vulnerable to every distraction, an experience she calls attention degradation. 'Peak Mind' introduces the one cognitive training technique proven to improve attention and performance: mindfulness training. Dr Jha explains exactly how to implement this 12-minute-a-day training program into daily life.
