How to Train Your Mind

Exploring the Productivity Benefits of Meditation

De: Chris Bailey

Narrado por: Chris Bailey

Meditation makes you more productive because it lets you earn back time. For each minute you spend meditating, you'll earn around nine minutes back, as Chris Bailey - author of The Productivity Project and Hyperfocus - will show in this candid and counter-intuitive guide to the productivity benefits of meditation.

How to Train Your Mind digs deep into the practical, tactical benefits of a meditation practice - and how to integrate a meditation ritual into your own life. In addition to calming your mind and allowing you to slow down in an overanxious world, research shows that meditation can de-stimulate your mind so you can think more clearly, procrastinate less, and be more effective at everything you do - at work and at home.

Featuring guided meditations designed to fit your busy, unpredictable schedule, How to Train Your Mind is the ideal guide for anyone looking to improve productivity without sacrificing time. While much has been written about the spiritual and intangible benefits of meditation, as far as our productivity is concerned, meditation is in a league all its own.

Habit Tracking 🤍

This was a great find, I’m glad I gave it an opportunity. I absolutely loved the walking meditation strategy. Thank you.

Straight to the point and well written

I have been meditating on and off for at least 3 years already but never consistently. After hearing this one I promess to do at least 2 mins everyday (as recommended by atomic habits).
This book contains a lot of beginner friendly information about what meditation is, what is not, and how to do it "correctly".
I have listened to it already twice and it has a lot of hidden gems if you take the time to listen to it. One of my faves was to do mindful shores as for me is something that I procrastinate a lot but in retrospective I kinda enjoy once I'm doing it.
Thank you and I hope this book brings more awareness to meditation as it has also helped me throughout my depression attacks.

Easily Digestible

The soothing cadence of the narrators voice can lead you either into a quick mediation or lull you to sleep. Either is fine. Overall the skill of how to create and maintain a meditation practice is above par.

Listen to lower speed

Although it’s too repetitive and annoying sometimes, you can consume the idea and content when you slow down the narration speed.

A different (but wonderful) take on meditation

I have read other meditation books in the past but none have been focused on productivity. All of the books that I have read have been focused on the mental and physical health benefits of meditation. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. It motivated me to become more consistent with my meditation habit, and I found many of the tips very practical to make this habit stick.
