How to rescue our ability to pay attention in a world that is distracted and hyperconnected.

Every day we become more impatient and irritable. Have you noticed it is harder for you to pay attention? Have you felt anxious lately? Are you bad at managing boredom and pain? We live in an era of instant gratification, in a culture of immediacy and reward, and we look for happiness at the click of a finger. We live in fast mode, failing to notice that we have become emotionally dependent on our multiple distractions. All of this impacts our ability to pay attention to what matters.

We can recover our lost attention, reconnect with ourselves and everything that surrounds us, and find that emotional balance we seek so desperately. In this book, Marian Rojas Estape, in her signature accessible style, dives deep into the myriads of scientific ways in which we can effectively reconquer our lives by recovering our mind.
