Critics Review
This is quite an extraordinary book, a rare combination of scientific insight, simple yet transformational tools and joyful encouragement. It’s beautifully written and Eli Susman is a friendly companion on every page, funny, kind, so smart and so wise. It’s a gem, and destined to become a classic. * Rick Hanson, New York Times bestselling author of Buddha’s Brain, Hardwiring Happiness, and Resilient *
In this carefully researched and entirely original approach to finding happiness in our daily lives, Eli Susman shows us how in the briefest moments of the day we can find a path to a meaningful life. This fresh, insightful and wonderfully written book will change how you live your life. * Dacher Keltner, author of Awe, Distinguished Professor of Psychology, UC Berkeley *
Micropractice by Eli Susman is a powerful and timely reimagining of self-care for a busy world. Grounded in research showing that even 20 seconds of self-compassionate touch a day can significantly enhance well-being, it reveals that meaningful change doesn’t require more time – only a wiser approach. In a culture where we’re already overwhelmed, the last thing we need is to criticise ourselves for not doing enough. This book offers a liberating, science-based solution: simple practices woven into everyday moments, helping us cultivate calm, compassion and clarity without added pressure. * ???????Kristin Neff, author of Self-Compassion and Fierce Self-Compassion *
Micropractice is a joyful and practical invitation to weave creativity into the fabric of everyday life – transforming humming, movement and other expressive moments into powerful tools for regulation and resilience. Grounded in psychological science and contemplative wisdom, it beautifully advances the promise of neuroaesthetics by showing how artful, 30-second practices can nurture calm, clarity and connection wherever we are. * ???????Susan Magsamen, Executive Director, International Arts, Mind Lab Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, New York Times bestselling co-author of Your Brain on Art *
