In this audiobook Beth Ridley explains about the three healthy habits to a better life with less stress and strain on the human body. I listened to this audiobook on my commute to work and I saw myself relating to everything talked about. Beth goes over how someone can implement these habits in their day without a hassle as well as the changes you can start to feel afterwards. The three healthy habits to improve someone's life are:
Mindfulness- Keeping an open mind and learning to calm your anxious mind.
Gratitude - Staying positive and being mindful of the all the blessings in your life and what you value about yourself and others.
Try Something New- Taking the time out of your busy schedule and day to do something new in order to feel accomplished and happy.
Now out of these three habits I found that I’m not so comfortable being spontaneous and trying new things unless I plan ahead but I’m getting better at trying new things that make me happy. Gratitude and mindfulness are two habits I use daily because someone else could have a worse day. I really enjoyed this short read and I think I’ll continue this self help book streak.

I like all the talk about burnout and how much it can affect our life and our happiness. I appreciated the three main concepts introduced to help with this: mindfulness, gratitude, and continuously trying something new. I can agree with each of these, although I’m sure it can be argued that there are other alternatives that could be more important or as affective. Overall though, I think the narrators argument was solid and she justified it with solid reasoning. I will say, afterward I was tempted to go home and start committing to meditation. I usually never find that it works because I never commit to it, but reading this made me believe it’s possible.
