Self Change

Self-help books like The Secret promise that we can tap in to the 'law of attraction' to control our destiny, simply by changing our thoughts. If we strip away the mystique, at the heart of this idea is a fundamental truth that is backed up by the latest breakthroughs in neuroscience: most of the things we want from life - health, happiness, wealth, love - are governed by our ability to think, feel and act; in other words, by our brain.

Negative thinking happens automatically–it’s not your fault. You tell yourself that today will be a better day, but your brain tells you the opposite, and you slip back into old negative habits.

The world has changed, our lives have changed, and in recent years, our work has changed.
