Resumen
Brain fog is real--and it can cloud your thinking, sap your creativity and motivation, and take the joy right out of life. This book offers quick, proven-effective solutions to help you cut through the haze and think clearly.
Do you ever feel spaced out or stuck in a rut, like you just can't think, or you're moving in slow motion? Perhaps you feel detached or disengaged, defeated and hopeless, or just not fully yourself. If you're struggling with a lack of mental clarity, energy, and belief in yourself and your capabilities, you may be experiencing the dreaded brain fog--a very real issue that can result from the exhaustion, overstimulation, and the stress of modern life.
All of us struggle to find the get-up-and-go we need sometimes, but when prolonged stress and anxiety begin to affect your ability to focus, concentrate, remember, solve problems, or communicate effectively on a regular basis, these symptoms may point to something more than just a stressful week. It's time to clear away the fog and reclaim your motivation, passion, self-worth, zest, and meaning in life.
Based on cutting-edge research, Overcoming Stress-Induced Brain Fog offers quick solutions you can put to work right away, including exercises based in awareness, mindfulness and acceptance, and self-compassion. With these ten easily accessible tools, you'll find your way out of the haze toward clarity, improved memory, and a greater presence to enjoy life.

Library Journal Review
Laid out into 10 sections to coordinate with each proposed solution, Weber (Be Calm) describes what brain fog is, how it can be determined, and what readers can do to reduce or eliminate it. The ongoing pandemic, world crises, and technology can enhance or initiate brain fog, making this a continuously relevant self-help title. Most of the text is dedicated to illustrating individual scenarios that the reader can consider to recognize symptoms in themselves. This leaves a much smaller portion of each section detailing how to resolve the issue, but readers will still gain guidance to outline realistic steps to overcome it. Readers will benefit from reading the entire book, instead of concentrating on the parts that pertain just to them; many of the sections tie into one another, and there's a recap of the previous solutions. VERDICT This title is more about the issue of brain fog than solutions, but its numerous detailed examples are quite relatable.--Elizabeth Chandler
