Reaching Holistic Change

This book examines and offers a holistic approach - dealing with our place in the world; making more time; allowing for well-being; accepting our fallibility; finding and following our passion: and finally finding our reason for being in the world. Reaching Holistic Change examines and discusses the following ideas: Where Are You?Where Do You Want To Go?Understanding Momentum Seven Suggestions to Self CareMany PathsSoothing WordsMeditation Finding your Passionand Stop Digging your HoleAlso discussed are the areas of: Nutrition, Hydration, Body Weight, Exercise, Burnout, Stress, Company Loyalty, Technology, Self-Esteem, Self-Efficacy, Empowerment and Handling Depression. To summarise, we need to listen more closely to our inner being or intuition and to find a powerful excuse or reason to halt these circular and repeated patterns of negative thought. Searching for answers, to an unattainable solution, or using logic at these times of severe stress and worry, is generally not helpful or useful, because the mechanism behind our thoughts, via your mind, are corrupt, and as so, functioning inadequately and being mostly ineffective and certainly unreliable. The negative effects of stress and burnout on the modern worker, and consequentially the company he or she works for, lingers on and plays havoc with every aspect of the organisation, but especially its own success and reputation. We have to consider if we just want to deal with the 'symptoms' of stress and burnout; or if we want to handle and use the more complicated preventative suggested measures laid out in this book?Reaching Holistic Change highlights political, environmental and cognitive change ... and, more importantly, how to come to terms with radical change in the modern world using a holistic approach. "... empowerment has also led us down a foggy path ... muddying the borders between work and home life, and as so, has interfered with the normal, old-fashioned parameters of what is considered as having a "normal" and healthy work-life balance."Coach Antony, offering a dynamic and exciting set of principles; sharing new, practical and useful hints and suggestions; together with expressing his unique and unconventional way of living and surviving our ever-changing world; offers a clear and straightforward approach to change and change-making for both the private and the business world. This book is presented and should be read like two old loyal friends having an amicable chat, perhaps over a glass of wine and in front of an open fire, with smiles; slight disagreements; and interesting, but differing observations and points of view. The book concludes, with comparing our lives to that of a boat within a harbour. However, we have to realise and accept that boats are not made or designed to remain within the safety of the harbour walls forever. It is the raison d'être of ships and boats to sail out amongst the waves, tackling both stormy and calm weather and finally to experience and reach new and amazing places.
