How to Calm Your Mind offers a toolkit of accessible science-backed strategies that reveal how the path to a less anxious life, and even greater productivity, runs directly through calm.

When productivity expert Chris Bailey discovered that he had become stressed and burnt out because he was pushing himself too hard, he realized that he had no right to be giving advice on productivity without learning when and how to rein things in and take a break. Productivity advice works—and we need it now more than ever—but it’s just as important that we also develop our capacity for calm. By finding calm and overcoming anxiety, we don’t just feel more comfortable in our own skin, we invest in the missing piece that leads our efforts to become sustainable over time. We build a deeper, more expansive reservoir of energy to draw from throughout the day, and have greater mental resources at our disposal not only to do good work, but also to live a good life.

Among the topics How to Calm Your Mind covers are:

How analogue and digital worlds affect calm and anxiety in different ways;
How our desire for dopamine breeds anxiety,
How hidden sources of stress can be tamed by a ‘stimulation fast’;
How ‘busyness’ is as much a state of mind as it is an actual state of life.

The pursuit of calm ultimately leads us to become more engaged, focused and deliberate—while making us more productive and satisfied with our lives overall. In an anxious world, achieving calm is the best life hack around.

Too long and repetitive

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on 2 February 2023

I did not enjoy this book. It is very wordy and repetitive, and the message (which is valuable) could have been summarized on two pages.

Another great book by Chris Bailey!

I’ve been following Chris’ work ever since his first book (The Productivity Project), and this is his best yet IMHO. He’s a very engaging writer, and I love approachable his style is. I also love the trajectory his career seems to be taking, away from the standard productivity advice toward the stuff that really matters (focus & calm). What’s unique is that it isn’t really a departure, but more of an evolution. Top notch work from one of my favorite authors!

Love this book

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on 27 December 2022

Who doesn't want to be calmer? But it appears that most of us don't totally understand what calmness is all about. I certainly didn't until I read this book. I not only appreciated the information but also liked the writing style.

The author is down-to-earth and transparent about how he came to investigate this topic, and how it helps with productivity. Most of the advice one gets about productivity or calmness is superficial or self-evident. This books is a trove of uncommon practical insights that I will be reflecting on for many months to come.

A Must-Read

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on 5 January 2023

Definitely a must-read for any modern human. Every one of us is vulnerable to the negative influences of social media, 24-hour news coverage and the dopaminergic effects of those as well as junk food and online shopping. Lots of scientific research is quoted as well as plenty of anecdotal reports to keep it interesting. Well written.

Practical tips to reduce stress and improve calm

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on 27 January 2023

Verified Purchase

Going on the digital/media fasting, adding meditation, thinking about physical wellness, creating the preventable and I preventable stress lists are all helpful ideas. Also taking these one at a time, rather than creating more acute stress by trying to make all the changes at once, is great advice from Chris Bailey. It seems that if one read this book first, before HyperFocus… we’d already be more ready to become focused at a more impressive level. Well written and aligns nicely with the podcast Mr. Bailey and his wife lead weekly- Time and Attention. Will definitely gift to some folks.
