Do you feel like you are stuck in a rut? Missing the chance to be really imaginative? Allowing life’s opportunities to pass you by?

All too often our brains work by habit: we find ourselves thinking in old familiar ways, applying logic that may have worked adequately for us in the past. This can leave us feeling creatively drained, this book offers a whole repertoire of original styles of thinking that will refresh your life - at home and at work, in your relationships and your leisure time.

With an explanation of the science-bit behind how restrictive our thinking can become due to factors we may not even be aware of. We can learn to recognize these boundaries, and we can begin to step beyond them.
