It's for lawyers looking for better ways to reduce stress, improve relationships, enjoy better health, and curb overthinking. It's actually the best book about lawyer wellness - that's been written by a practicing attorney (and mom) - that you will ever read.Instead of a tome, it's a practical guide - delivered in plain English (instead of "lawyer-speak"). And the evidence shows (your honor), that what you discover in these pages will work for you.Almost every day, scientific, peer-reviewed studies continue to prove that mindfulness, meditation, and compassion practices can lower stress and have a laundry list of positive benefits. (Even when you're anxious, worried, or feeling stress, you can still be a badass lawyer.) This book will show you how.The author, Claire E. Parsons, is a practicing lawyer, mom, and mindfulness teacher who doesn't have time to waste and knows you don't either. She wrote this guide to help you quickly develop a complete mindfulness practice that will foster mental clarity, focus, ease, emotional intelligence, and resilience. And to do it in a way that fits your life and makes your time with family and friends even better. Without lingo or mysticism, HOW TO BE A BADASS LAWYER offers approaches to personal development and personal transformation that will change your life? without relying on motivation. The best part is that you don't have to be perfect to make this work. A few minutes a day, a few extra deep breaths, and the willingness to have more peace in your life is all you need. The world needs the "badass lawyer you". And more importantly, you need you.
