I'm glad you opened this little book.

You don't have to read it in one go. Take one chapter, try one tip, and notice what it does for you. Tomorrow is another day.

Everything in here is small on purpose. Big changes almost always start with something you can do today, in a few minutes, without anyone having to see it.

How to use this book

• Read slowly. One chapter at a time is enough.
• Pick one tip. Not three. One, for a whole week.
• Write something down. A sentence will do: what you tried, and how it went.
• Bring it along. Whatever you notice, we talk about in the next session.

What you don't have to do

You don't have to finish anything. You don't have to practise every day. And you don't have to get it right. Noticing what happens is already work.

This is a sample book from Coachlink: the kind of thing a coach might write for the people they work with. The tips are general and don't replace a conversation with your own coach or doctor.
