Ten Minutes to Happiness is a therapeutic self-help programme based on a six-step formula designed to lift your mood and improve your mental health. Dr Mann's six steps are underpinned by psychological principles and have been tried and tested amongst many of her clients at The Mind Training Clinic in Manchester. By spending just 10 minutes completing your happiness journal each day, you will build up a record of your experiences in six simple areas: - Pleasure: Things that were enjoyed that day - Positive Strokes: Praise or feedback received during the day - Lucky Me: Good fortune you encountered that day - Achievements: Reasons to say 'well done me', however small - Gratitude: Blessings to be counted - Random Acts of Kindness: Kind acts you have performed that day The more you use this journal, the more your mood will benefit and the happier you will be, by appreciating the positive aspects of your life, rather than dwelling on the negative

Jak překonat problémy a dobře se vyspat! Žijeme v hektickém světě, který je v neustálém pohybu. Máme přístup k televizi a rádiu, které vysílají 24 hodin denně, můžeme nakupovat v nonstop supermarketech a internet nám poskytuje neomezené množství zábavy. Na druhou stranu jsme však sužováni nekonečnými obavami a úzkostmi. Ať už kvůli práci, rodině, bydlení, politice, nebo negativním informacím, které se na nás řítí ze všech stran. Proto není překvapivé, že je stále těžší se v tomto nekončícím kolotoči různých aktivit zastavit a nabrat sílu a zdraví spánkem. Přestože naše ložnice nabízejí větší pohodlí a lákají ke spánku více, než jak tomu bylo kdykoli v historii, celkově spíme méně než kdy předtím. Tato publikace vysvětluje, jak k tomu došlo, a radí, co všechno můžeme udělat, aby se náš spánkový rytmus vrátil do normálu a opět jsme se dobře vyspali!
