A trio of McKinsey & Company veterans draws from a unique combination of psychology, neuroscience, and consciousness practices plus a combined 50-plus years of international board room experience to offer a unique approach to learning and leading with awareness and intentional choice, even amidst the most challenging circumstances.As the speed of change in our increasingly complex world accelerates daily, leaders are tasked with performing outside of their familiar zones both in their personal and professional lives. This requires us to adapt. Yet, the same conditions that make adapting so important can also trigger fear, leading us to resist change and default to reactive behavior. The authors call this the ?adaptability paradox?: when we most need to learn and change, we stick with what we know, often in ways that stifle learning and innovation. To avoid this trap, leaders must become proactive so they can lead ahead of the curve.Enter Deliberate Calm, a tangible guide that combines cutting-edge neuroscience, psychology, and consciousness practices, along with the authors' decades of experience working with leaders around the globe. By practicing Dual Awareness, which integrates our internal and external experiences, leaders can become fluid and respond to challenges with intentional choice instead of being limited by their old success models. With Deliberate Calm, anyone can lead and learn with awareness and choice to realize their full potential, even in times of uncertainty, complexity, and change.

For fans of Oliver Sacks and Henry Marsh, a glimpse into the fascinating world of modern neurology by a leading expert in the field.As a trainee doctor, A. J. Lees was enthralled by his mentors: esteemed neurologists who combined the precision of mathematicians, the scrupulosity of entomologists, and the solemnity of undertakers in their diagnoses and treatments. For them, there was no such thing as an unexplained symptom or psychosomatic problem—no difficult cases, just interesting ones—and it was only a matter of time before all disorders of the brain would be understood in terms of anatomical, electrical, and chemical connections.Today, this kind of “holistic neurology” is on the brink of extinction as a slavish adherence to protocols and algorithms—plus a worship of machines—runs the risk of destroying the key foundational clinical skills of listening, observation, and imagination that have been at the heart of the discipline for more than 150 years.In this series of brilliant, insightful, and autobiographical essays, Lees takes us on a kind of Sherlock Holmes tour of neurology, giving the reader insight into—and a defense of—the deep analytical tools that the best neurologists still rely on to diagnose patients: to heal minds and to fix brains.

A call to women to accept and live our feminine nature.The essence of the feminine nature is life. It is the energy in us that cares about life in all its forms, that brings warmth and beauty to everyday living, that says yes to life. This sensibility runs deep yet close to the surface in women. Growing from girlhood into womanhood, many of us forget or reject our true femininity. Coming back home to our feminine nature is a process of recognizing what was left behind, feeling the sorrow of that loss, and learning to value what is ours by birthright. Many women yearn to feel more whole, more complete. The answer lies in connecting with the original feminine that flows in our veins. With knowledge and commitment, we can recover the sensitivities and intelligence natural to us as women. When rooted in the wisdom of our personal rhythms and inner knowing''s, we experience security and a sense of belonging from within.Explaining the feminine principle in a down-to-earth manner, The Nature of Woman affirms women''s ways of thinking, seeing, speaking and being. Stories from the natural world, viewed psychologically, take the reader deep into the instinctive wisdom residing in women''s bodies and psyches. An age-old practice from a culture that honours women''s sensibilities reveals pointers for congruent living as a woman. Women hungry for a sense of authentic womanhood will find inspiration, validation and guidance here. If you desire to Be Woman, the pages of this book invite you in.
