Overwhelmed
£20.00All of us are familiar with this unsettling sensation of acceleration – the feeling that there’s ever more to do, and ever less time in which to do it. This is overwhelm: that persistent feeling that you can’t cope, that the demands on you are excessive, that you can’t see a way out. In this liberating book, award-winning writer and presenter of BBC Radio 4’s All in the Mind Claudia Hammond helps us to take the pressure off with a psychological toolkit that is both practical and evidence-based. Each chapter addresses a particular problem related to the sensation of being overwhelmed – from procrastination to the fear of regret, imposter syndrome, perfectionism and a seemingly never-ending to-do list – and offers a way out. Calm, clear and convincing, ‘Overwhelmed’ will give you the tools to take on everything life throws at you.

What’s Your Dream?
£10.99What’s your dream? It’s a simple question, but one which very few of us ever really think about. From early on, we are taught that there’s only one path to getting ahead: do well at school, get a certain kind of job, and avoid failure at all costs. We’re so busy trying to follow these rules that we never stop and ask ourselves: What’s my purpose? What do I really want? Do I have the power to make it happen? Simon Squibb is on a mission to change people’s lives for the better. Here, he shares the hard-won life lessons from his years in the business world plus his own personal life, from facing homelessness as a teenager to selling a multi-million pound business, and now inspiring a new generation of budding entrepreneurs. Simon will empower readers to identify their own meaningful goals, to remove the barriers that stand in the way, and ultimately to build a richer life.

The Bright Side
£10.99Optimism, irrational though it might be, is central to the human psyche: it seems to give us an advantage both in everyday life and in the evolutionary race. What does Ernest Shackleton’s Antarctic expedition have in common with the chicken that crossed the road? Or James Baldwin’s campaign for civil rights with the development of AI? Or even Crossrail and George Bush’s ‘mission accomplished’? ‘The Bright Side’ makes a vital and transformative new argument: that optimism is not only the natural state of humanity, but an essential one.
