      Foreword

      How to use this workbook

      In preparation

      Buy yourself a beautiful journal and pen. Alternatively, create a special folder on your computer where you will do the journal work suggested.

      The book is made up of five different elements:

      ♦Information and theory. This is the part you’ll need to read.

      ♦Journal work. This offers you an opportunity to learn and reflect (the reflection part is an important part of the work).

      ♦ Quotes. These support the theory.

      ♦Practice. Exercises for you to do that will consolidate your learning and help bring about change (the action part of your work).

      ♦Key ideas. These summaries are found at the end of each chapter and serve as a quick reminder of what you have learnt in the chapter.

      When you see these symbols…

      

…it’s time for Journal work.

      Wherever you see this sign in the book, take five minutes for yourself. Breathe yourself into a calm, self-reflective space. Square breathing always works for me:

      ♦Breathe in while counting to four.

      ♦Hold your breath while counting to four.

      ♦Breathe out while counting to four.

      ♦Hold your breath while counting to four.

      ♦Repeat four times

      Then, do the exercise in your journal. You may want to write the page number of the exercise in your journal for cross-referencing purposes. Take your time and write honestly. If possible, write for a minimum of 10 minutes. This is for your eyes only – the more honest you are, the more you will learn and grow.

      If you do not feel confident about journaling, refer to my book Journaling Joys.

      

…it’s time to Practice.

      This is a practical exercise for you to follow. It’s different to journal work where you are required to reflect. These exercises are actions that you can take to bring change to your life. Follow the instructions given.

      

…it’s time to reflect on the Key ideas.

      After each chapter, you’ll find a summary of the content and important points to remember.
