The Mindful Spark: Reclaim Your Past, Reset Your Future, by David Delaney

In these particularly stressful times, many people are struggling with their mental health. Some are caught up in their painful past, others are fretful about an uncertain future, and even more are anxious about their current circumstances. While the worries and concerns are real, practical steps can be taken to make them more manageable.

In this insightful book, David Delaney draws on his own experiences to provide a welcome handbook on resilience and mindfulness. Becoming almost completely blind at eight years old, David struggled to fit in, and was hampered by his insecurities, doubts and low self-worth until he learned the skills to embark on a path to lasting confidence, health and happiness.

For over twenty years David has researched resilience, meditation, Tai Chi, mindfulness, Yoga, Qi Gung movements and other techniques. He then studied modern scientific research on their efficacy and started applying their helpful practices and stories to his own life and in the meditation classes he taught. He now wants to share what he has learned.

This step-by-step guide can set you free by breaking the chains of your past and helping you to embrace a bright new future. By making simple changes in your everyday world, you can make a huge difference to your life. So, here’s the question: what’s stopping you from taking the next step? It’s your life – why not get the most from it?
