The Relentless Pursuit of Peace
A Roadmap to Mental Health
Mental Health is very much on the agenda. This book demystifies a lot of the issues that can affect the majority.
Many self-help books, as well as seminars and initiatives, in the workplace are often misleading. The author has worked at postgraduate level in six top universities working with leaders. Every part has been road tested and the results over the last twenty years have been consistent and positive.
This book is about making changes towards a more and enjoyable and fulfilling life. It will help you survive stressful circumstances but is so much more, a dawn breaking in the darkness.
