Getting and staying mentally fit, just like getting and maintaining a high level of physical fitness, involves hard work, effort, and consistency. Our level of mental fitness determines how effectively we can flourish through adversity, realise our potential, and be happier with our lives - regardless of what the universe has in store. We all know about mental stress (or we think we do). We've definitely all experienced it, and none of us like it. Yet this is not a threat to be avoided. Mental stress is perfectly analogous to physical stress: it is the mind's way of telling us that what we are attempting to perform is challenging our resource. This is a catalyst for growth, and a sign we are pursuing our potential. When we experience stress, we have a choice: we can heed that signal and give up - after all, we're meant to stay in our psychic comfort zone all the time, right? Or we can recognise the discomfort we are feeling is simply nature's way of enabling us to rise to the occasion.

At the start of the 16th century, England was hardly involved in the wider world, and London remained a gloomy, introverted medieval city. But as the century progressed, something extraordinary happened which placed London at the center of the world stage forever. Stephen Alford's evocative, original new audiobook, bringing to life the network of merchants, visionaries, crooks, and sailors who changed London and England forever. In a sudden explosion of energy, English ships were suddenly found all over the world - trading with Russia and the Levant, exploring Virginia and the Arctic, and fanning out across the Indian Ocean. The people who made this possible - the families, the guild members, the money - men who were willing to risk huge sums and sometimes their own lives in pursuit of the rare, exotic, and desirable - are as interesting as any of those at court. Their ambitions fueled a new view of the world - initiating a long era of trade and empire, the consequences of which still resonate today.

A fascinating journey through our circadian rhythms, sleep, and health, by a world-leading expert on circadian neuroscience. The routines of our modern lives-home working, night shifts, technolog—are playing havoc with our body clocks, sleep patterns, and health. Packed with cutting-edge science, this book by award-winning scientist Russell Foster takes the listener on a journey through our days and nights, and explains how we can get back into rhythm and live healthier, sharper lives. In the past few decades, there has been an explosion of discoveries around the science of the body clock and our twenty-four-hour biological cycles. Sleep and daily rhythms emerge from our genetics, physiology, behavior, and the environment. Like most of our behaviors, they are not fixed. These rhythms are modified by our actions, how we interact with the environment, and how we progress from birth to old age. Cutting through long-standing myths, Foster empowers listeners by providing concrete information and guidance that can be used to understand what makes the body clock "tick."
