New Mind Chi Book Helps Re-Wire the Brain in Just 8 Minutes a Day
Achieve Personal and Professional Goals Almost Effortlessly
MIAMI, FL March 5, 2010 - If you want to think better and sharper, feel more confident and experience a sense of well-being in every aspect of your personal and business life, then you’ll want to read the new book Mind Chi (Wiley, 2010). ISBN - 978-1-906465-58-2
The intriguing new practice described in this just-released book was inspired by T’ai chi ch’uan, a Chinese martial art employed since ancient times for health and well-being. Mind chi is a modern interpretation of T’ai chi created by the book’s co-authors, which emphasizes mental exercises. It synthesizes positive psychology, mental wellness and eudemonics (the study of happiness) into one easy-to follow guide.
“If you’re willing to spend just eight minutes a day doing super simple brain exercises, your life can change completely,” said Richard Israel, co-author of Mind Chi.
“The eight steps of Mind chi are grounded in established theories of memory, mind and motivational development and neuroscience,” added Vanda North, the book’s other co-author. “Our techniques are designed to improve your control, willpower and focus with the end goal of enhancing success both in your personal and business life.”
The Mind chi process encourages you to ask: What is right about me, and how can I have more of it? How can I learn to direct my will to produce the outcomes I desire? Practiced for just 28 days, this new way of thinking transforms into a life-enhancing habit.
Each of the eight steps takes just one minute and can be employed throughout the day whenever convenient.
One example, designed to improve focus, concentration and clarity of thought, is called “One.” In One, you set a timer and silently repeat the word “one” until an intruding thought occurs. At that point say “two” over and over until another thought intrudes, at which point you say “three,” and so on. At the end of one minute note the number you reached. The goal is to be able to stay on “one” for 60 seconds with no other thoughts intruding.
