The world around us is fast paced, confusing, and full of distractions.
We rely on willpower to create change in our lives...but what if we're thinking about it all wrong? In Willpower Doesn't Work, Benjamin Hardy explains that willpower is nothing more than a dangerous fad-one that is bound to lead to failure. Instead of "white-knuckling" your way to change, you need to instead alter your surroundings to support your goals. This book shows you how. The world around us is fast-paced, confusing, and full of distractions. It's easy to lose focus on what you want to achieve, and your willpower won't last long if your environment is in conflict with your goals--eventually, the environment will win out. Willpower Doesn't Work is the needed guided for today's over-stimulating and addicting environment. Willpower Doesn't Work will specifically teach you:- How to make the biggest decisions of your life--and why those decisions must be made in specific settings
- How to create a daily "sacred" environment to live your life with intention, and not get sucked into the cultural addictions
- How to invest big in yourself to upgrade your environment and mindset
- How to put "forcing functions" in your life--so your default behaviors are precisely what you want them to be
- How to quickly put yourself in proximity to the most successful people in the world--and how to adapt their knowledge and skills to yourself even quicker
- How to create an environment where endless creativity and boundless productivity is the norm
Benjamin Hardy will show you that nurture is far more powerful than your nature, and teach you how to create and control your environment so your environment will not create and control you.

Looks like it will be helpful
Format: Audiobook
I'm not very far into this one yet, but so far, I love it. I bought the kindle and audible versions. It is nice to be able to listen to the exercises to go through them, and to be able to look up the specifics of any exercise. With whisper sync, I can point to an exercise in the kindle, and have audible read it to me. Great.
the exercises I have tried so far seem like they are going to be helpful.

Great Resource Even for Non-Professionals
Format: Paperback
I am not a psychotherapist, but I ordered the workbook to learn more about somatics. It’s a very good resource from what I’ve experienced so far. I love how the concepts are plainly explained in (mostly) everyday language. I’m a helper and healer by nature, and I think I will get a lot of mileage out of the well-presented activities in the book. If you’re not a professional but are looking for ways to expand your knowledge of healing, trauma response, and the human body, you’ll like the practical nature of this one.

What a FANTASTIC resource (WITH PDF FILES!!!)
Format: Paperback
I normally do not write reviews on Amazon, but thought I would do so in this case. I bought the book a few months ago and have really begun to digest the amazing quality of work that has been put into this. Prior to purchase I almost did not buy since someone else noted in their review that there are no PDFs. I reached out to the author, and she was very responsive and warm to my concern and advised there is a link within the book to download the PDFs. Sure enough, the book arrived and I was able to download the digital files! I have used to book and its tools to create two therapy groups that are heavily influenced by the content. After running both groups three times, I nothing but good things to say about this resource. My clients, who initially were resistant to somatic work, have all come around to love this group. In fact, they are two of the more popular groups at my program! Individuals who have been so traumatized that their usual report of "I feel nothing" has shifted. One client has been able to turn her whole narrative of her body being the enemy (for betraying her per trauma) to "my body empowers me. Even when I don't like what it is telling me, it is protecting me and moving me through life." I am so grateful for this book and the different perspective that it provided me in my practice.

AMAZED
Format: Paperback
This book is an incredible tool to add to the way I practice. I intuitively already used a lot of skills in this book and never realized what I was doing. I've always had this innate understanding that the body plays such an important role in healing. No wonder people gain a ton of weight after sexual trauma, or why we feel so good after exercise, yoga, dance etc. I was trained in a somatic and attachment focused protocol for EMDR and have been so intrigued to learn more about somatic exercises to incorporate with my clients. I'm so excited to start using this material! This has been on my wishlist for a long time, go ahead and buy it! You won't regret it.
