Help yourself and others! Chris Maharaj

"Help yourself and others!" is an evidence-based book that reveals how you can go about finding your personal fulfillment as well as helping others to find theirs. Questions posited to the reader are intense and the answers provided are thought provoking. The book is intended to provide a paradigm shift in the way we think and what we believe about society. It questions the existing fabric of society that is primarily profit-driven and makes the case for the eventual progression to a future that is driven by the attainment of personal fulfillment in ourselves and each other. Be prepared for a fundamental and positive change in the way you view the universe and your reason for being here! The book guides readers towards physical, mental and spiritual well-being through scientific theories and academic research that affirm the benefits of mindfulness meditation, a positive outlook, exercise, optimal diet, hydration and sleep, resolving mental illness or addiction issues, re-evaluating extrinsic goals/expectations versus intrinsic motivation, advancing intelligence, practicing empathy, volunteering in an activity of interest, perceiving stressful situations as opportunities for personal growth, and helping others mindful that you're not enabling or hurting them.
