"Many have pointed out the psychological benefits of clearing out the clutter in our surroundings. But what do we do with our emotional clutter - the psychological versions of the jam-packed closet or impenetrable garage? As we shut away and try to hide old pains and traumas we create toxic patterns. Author Donald Altman uses modern neuroscience to outline how habits and patterns can be modified with only a few minutes of attention daily. Altman first helps readers realize what their baggage consists of and how to transform or jettison it. He then shows how to avoid accumulating new emotional clutter. With these practices, readers address their pasts, learn to deal with the present, and cultivate the best possible futures for themselves"-- Provided by publisher.
