When presenting to judges, you have to have the science on point and understand the art of judicial decision making. Dr. Allott does both! She provides judicial officers with clear and concise evidence of how decision-making is influenced by how and when we eat, our regularity of sleep and if we exercise. In the complexity of a full docket, the achievable tools that Dr. Allott offers inspire judges to understand that part of their job is maintaining their health for optimal decision making. One senior Judge commented at the end of a training that he wished he'd known when he started as a judge that taking care of himself was part of the job.

Dr. Kristen Allott has spoken to 5 of my Vistage groups here in the Puget Sound area. I have also recommended Dr. Allott to several of my Vistage Chair colleagues both here in Seattle and nationally. The long term benefitsto the companies, CEOs and executive leaders is that to be productive today and in the future, it requires attending to how they eat, sleep and exercise. The practical tools that Dr. Allott provides gives a competitive advantage in decision making, creative problem solving and health.

“Wonderful!”

This book is easily a life changer. Unlike many of the previous review writers, I do not work in mental health. Rather I’m an everyday person looking for decreased anxiety. The book is easy to read, and with the workbook, it is easy to follow and understand the recommendations given by the authors. Mostly, there is an understanding that change is personal and does not happen without practice. I have given this book to my teenage daughter and her friends as this COVID year has them very stressed and anxious. And like many teenagers, they gorge on junk food when together. We are starting a book club just for this book, so they can work together to become the best they can be.
