Mind Full by Dermot Whelan
Synopsis
In 2007, comedian and broadcaster, Dermot Whelan, arrived at a comedy festival in an ambulance. It was a hell of an entrance. He had had a panic attack enroute. Realising that this was not a sustainable way to travel to future gigs, Dermot decided to become a meditation teacher and learn how to destress without annoying the emergency services.
Now a leading corporate stress management expert, Dermot asks the question for all of us: how do we know when our minds are full? And what can we do about it before our heads are wrecked? This book is his no nonsense, incense-free, hilarious guide to relaxing the head, reducing anxiety and living a calmer life. No ambulance required!
