#Chill Audiobook Summary

Stop stressing and learn to chill with this mindfulness and meditation guidebook that can help workaholics and others let go of anxiety and achieve and maintain the healthy work/life balance they need.

We all know good health and happiness depends on having proper balance between our professional and private lives. But in today’s hectic work environment, in which we must do more in less time with fewer resources, that goal can feel impossible to attain. We stay late at the office rather than being home with our families. We work into the night and on weekends to perfect that presentation or just catch up, rather than relaxing with a hobby or spending time with our friends. Under constant pressure to over-perform, work easily becomes the dominant force in our lives.

Licensed psychotherapist and professor Bryan Robinson understands the demands we face. He also knows that it’s difficult to stop the cycle of over-work. But there is a solution. In #Chill, Robinson explains how ending the cycle of work addiction can be achieved by reframing priorities and cultivating mindfulness in our daily lives. He provides a month-by-month guide with meditations that help center and soothe us, allowing us to step back, close our eyes, take a long breath, and focus on the moment.

Filled with wise advice, inspiring quotes, and gentle guidance, #Chill gives us the tools we need to quiet our anxiety, break our addiction to work, and bring compassion, calm, confidence, and creativity into our daily existence–and at last, have the peaceful, balanced life we all deserve.

I listened to this and found the ideas very valuable.One idea that I liked: Daily, set three goals in FOUR categories: 1) personal 2) work 3) family and 4) play.Similarly, another idea that I liked was have a "to-do" list and have a "to-be" list. My job contributes to my quality of life. However, I still need to learn to take full mental and physical breaks from it. I feel good that I have identified my problem and I am working daily to be better at taking care of myself. The calendar of affirmations was super worthwhile.

#CHILL is a thought-provoking and beautiful read. An exploration of what it means to overwork and how perfectionists can learn to make time for themselves to relax and reconnect with their intentions, higher purpose, and friends and family, in the pursuit if living a balanced life. As someone who has struggled with work addiction, I find Robinson's work to be incredibly helpful both practically and emotionally--knowing there are others who feel this same way and we are not along in our struggles is such an important step in healing.Written with personal anecdotes from the author, scientific information shared, as well as practical suggestions and meditations, this is a book that can stay by every bedside table, year round.

As a creative, I have a really hard time turning off work and enjoying life. I’ve needed a book like this for a long time to help me categorize all areas and enjoy life! I’ve been so tired of the guilt and anxiety - this is the perfect book to find balance and get back to what’s important.

Work is part of life but shouldn't be all of it... this book accurately describes what it feels like and what drives workaholics. Mindfulness, deliberate action, mindset (including fake it til you make it, acknowledging mistakes and realising you can't do it all), compassion ( for yourself and others) are amongst the tools presented to help you take back control. * Signs you need to take a break. HALT (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired)* The workaholic mind is a narrow mind without room to grow. It's self centred, doesn't recognise joy or wins and deprives life. * Musterbation - allowing expectations to set your agenda and control your life* Learn and do better - but don't beat yourself up for failures* Treat yourself as "I" not " i"... more confident and affirming* Work bulimia ‐ cycling between procrastination and overwork * Anxiety is optional... but a warning sign* 8 c words to a better life - courage compassion creativity clarity calmness curiosity confidence connectedness

Bagi Bryan, melawan candu kerja menjadi suatu keharusan. Kendati kebiasaan candu kerjanya sulit dihilangkan, ia memiliki solusi jitu seperti melakukan konseling dan bergabung dengan komunitas workaholic anonymous, memulai terapi yoga dan meditasi.Diluar itu, Bryan sebagai penulis, rupanya kurang merencanakan alur penulisan buku ini. Setiap bahasan terdiri sub-bab dan didalamnya lagi terdapat judul berisi reli panjang yang justru membuat pembaca awam seperti saya membutuhkan pemahaman lebih di setiap judul itu. Namun, saya perlu mengapresiasi terdapat poin-poin penting pada akhir bab memudahkan pembaca untuk menyimpulkan apa yang disampaikan bab yang telah mereka baca.Cek Resensi saya disini: https://ekspresionline.com/melawan-ca...

I’ve worked my way through this book, once a month, as I believe it was intended to be read and wow. Have I enjoyed it. I feel refreshed having utilized the activities and meditations and feel all around better equipped at saying no and establishing healthy boundaries for myself. My partner and friends have noticed changes for the best in myself and have said they’re proud of me for doing what’s right for me instead of allowing work/societal standards/etc to set my daily tone. Grateful for this read as it was a gift by Sarah Malinak, my adopted aunt!

I enjoyed this book so much! I particularly loved the lay out and how quick and easy each section was to read! The advice in the book really stuck with me as somebody who also struggles to switch off from work and make time for myself! I learnt a good range of things from this book and hopefully I will see a difference! Definitely a must read if you struggle with prioritising other things that aren’t related to work!
