Mindfulness for Blokes

Cut the Crap, Take Control

By: Chris Thomas

Narrated by: Alan Bloke

Mindfulness isn’t just for yoga mums and hippies—it’s for blokes who want to stop their brains from stitching them up. If you’ve ever overthought a text, lost your rag in traffic, or lain awake replaying that stupid thing you said three years ago, this book is for you.

This book is short ‘cause it doesn’t dick about. No fluff. No nonsense. Just straight-talking, practical mindfulness that actually works. You’ll learn how to:

Shut down stress before it takes over
Stop overthinking and clear your head
Stay cool under pressure
Sleep better and switch off when you need to
React less, respond better, and take control of your own mind

Forget sitting cross-legged on the top field at Glastonbury or chanting in a cave—this is mindfulness for real life. Written by the author channeling Ray Winstone’s Sexy Beast character, Gal Dove, Mindfulness for Blokes gives you the tools to stay sharp, stress less, and take charge of your own headspace.

Because your brain should work for you, not against you.

A Simple and Useful Guide to Mindfulness

Thomas' book is a simple and direct guide to mindfulness.. I enjoyed it because it gives real tips on how to stop overthinking, manage stress, and deal with pressure. Both the humor and advice make this guide easy to understand. This book is a good read.

a refreshing take on mindfulness

It’s not your typical self-help book with abstract, philosophical concepts. Instead, it speaks to real-life struggles—work pressure, relationships, personal health, and the daily grind—and provides grounded solutions for each. The language is blunt and engaging, appealing to men who might be skeptical about mindfulness or simply don’t have time for anything too complex.

Genuinely fun

I think men need to spend more time on their self-care, and this is a great entry point. It's got great info, presented in a very digestible format. I got a lot out of this, for sure.
