About this listen
Each one of us has visionary qualities; we are inundated daily by fears, stress, and worries. Mindfulness and meditation serve as band-aids, but we are all familiar with the adage: Don’t put the sick mind you don’t understand into the healthy self you aspire to become.
This groundbreaking guide reveals why stress and fears are so instrumental to your experience of who you are that you wouldn’t want to live without them. You will learn how to use this experience to transform your reality with calm awareness and meaning.
Using a combination of the latest cognitive neuroscience, her background in coaching, and mind-bending exercises, Dr. Maria Ian explains how our brains, often without that we are aware, quickly succumb to fear and stress. We get stuck in rigid, addictive patterns and sabotage our visionary qualities. In this twilight of consciousness, we stand at the crossroads between exhaustion, mechanized oblivion, and conscious, purposeful evolution. The many tips and exercises in this guide explain how you can train awareness of this uncertainty to halt your fear and put to use a new and helpful mindfulness.
Imagine transforming your stressors into your greatest, creative breakthroughs! You will learn to rewire your brain and tap into what your anxious, stressed energy really means. A wellspring of inspiration, focus, calm, and purpose awaits so you can fuel your most audacious dreams and goals.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A Fresh Viewpoint
This book offers a new perspective on stress and fear, reframing them as essential tools for self-awareness, creativity, and personal growth. The author has combined cognitive neuroscience, coaching expertise, and practical exercises and reveals how the brain unconsciously succumbs to fear, trapping individuals in limiting patterns. Through a structured nine-step approach, she provides actionable strategies to harness stress as a catalyst for transformation, helping one shift their mindset, boost resilience, and regain control over their emotions. I recommend it for anyone seeking clarity, purpose, and empowerment in the face of life’s challenges.

Straightforward and Direct
I really appreciate how direct and no-nonsense this audiobook is. I enjoy listening and reading books on destressing, but I have to say this is the first one that takes more of a direct tone. Perfect style for those who have direct personalities. It doesn’t just talk about reducing stress, it actually gives clear, actionable steps that make sense. It’s refreshing to get guidance that isn’t overly complicated or filled with fluff. If you’re looking for a simple but effective approach to improving your well-being, this is audiobook for you.
