About this audiobook
Are you wearing stress as a badge of honor or resigned to feeling stuck in the hustle culture? The reality is that chronic stress kills. Just ask Dr. Romie Mushtaq who suffered from career burnout and underwent life-saving surgery. And as a brain doctor, she should have known better. Dr. Romie embarked on a global journey to research and heal the negative impact of the stress responses on our brains, bodies, and teams. The solution led to this eye-opening book for professionals eager to break the relentless cycles of stress, anxiety, and burnout.
While traditional medicine treats anxiety, adult-onset ADHD, and insomnia as separate issues, Dr. Romie identifies them as symptoms of a “Busy Brain.” Busy Brain results from chronic unchecked stress and burnout.
The Busy Brain Cure is an integrated approach to heal the root cause of ADD/ADHD, anxiety, and insomnia, while also transforming the conversation on mental health and workplace wellness.
In this book, you’ll learn how to:
- Overcome the stimulant-sedative cycle, reducing dependence on caffeine by day and sleep aids at night.
- Heal your Busy Brain without resorting to fad diets or cleanses. Embrace comfort food choices that combat stress, and move away from the toxic diet culture.
- Use the 8-week brainSHIFT Protocol for better sleep, increased energy, and sustained focus.
- Heal the root cause of attention deficit disorder (ADD), anxiety, and insomnia without addictive medications.
- Based on twenty years of clinical research and experience, this book introduces a simple and easy to implement 8-week plan to heal the root cause of burnout.
Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
