CLEANING UP THE MENTAL MESS with Dr. Caroline Leaf
Health & Fitness:Mental Health
Mindfulness is a very hot topic now. And there are many benefits to being mindful through prayer or meditation. However, research has shown that mindfulness is not enough to help create sustainable healthy mental habits. We need to go beyond mindfulness. In this episode I discuss the benefits of mindfulness, and how to go beyond this first step. I also discuss the correct way to use mindfulness and the other 4 steps to deal with a crisis in the heat of the moment. This is the fourth episode in my Think Learn Succeed Podcast Series.

About the 2019 Mental Health Initiative:
I am making 2019 the year of mental health! Each month I will tackle a specific problem, issue, and concept related to mental ill health. I will be discussing major issues in the current mental health system AND how to find healing for yourself or a loved one.
I’m excited to announce that for the February and March Mental Health Initiative we are going to be doing another book club! Over the next eight weeks we will be going through my latest book, Think Learn Succeed!
I decided to spread the book over two months because there is just so much to unpack and discuss. Like the January Perfect You book club, there will be weekly YouTube Live sessions that go over the assigned chapters as well as blogs and podcasts related to topics and concepts in Think Learn Succeed.
How you understand and use your mind is predictive of how successful you will be. Nothing will work unless you get your mind right first. Think Learn Succeed is all about helping you make that switch to a life well-lived, filled with meaningful success.
So how do you join the book club?
1. Get the book! You can order it online from my website and get 20% off with coupon code TLS20: https://store.drleaf.com/collections/frontpage/products/think-learn-succeed-book
2. You can also order the book on Amazon or pick it up wherever books are sold: https://www.amazon.com/Think-Learn-Succeed-Understanding-Workplace-ebook/dp/B07933HG86/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1548440607&sr=8-1&keywords=think+learn+succeed+by+dr+caroline+leaf
3. I highly encourage getting the DVD and workbook as this will really help you understand this book so much more, and it makes a great companion to the weekly YouTube sessions! The DVD and workbook are designed for groups or individuals, and are like bible study guides. You can purchase the Think Learn Succeed Study Pack here: https://store.drleaf.com/collections/group-studies/products/think-learn-succeed-curriculum-kit
4. You can also get the book on Kindle, and get the audiobook on Amazon's Audible.
5. The YouTube Live Schedule (copy this and keep it somewhere you can see each week!):
February 8th 5pm CT: Introduction and Chapters 1 & 2: https://youtu.be/V9fzKitEsGU
February 13th 7pm CT: Chapters 3 & 4
February 22nd 5pm CT: Chapters 5-7

March 21st 5pm CT: Chapters 17-18
March 29th 5pm CT: Chapters 19-20
*Chapters 21 & 22 are more on the science of my research and work and are optional readings.
**Be sure to read the assigned chapters BEFORE the Youtube Live as this will really help you understand the book better. In the YouTube live sessions I give a recap of the assigned chapters for that week, and go into some explanations of the concepts. I also give practical application tips.
This is also a great book for students, teachers, and parents of students as it deals a lot with learning, memory, and learning difficulties!
