Description
In terms of evolution, humanity hasn't changed much over the past hundred thousand years. Although our environment is wildly different, our basic needs are much the same. This creates an incongruity between what we've evolved to handle and what we face on a day-to-day basis.
In Caveman Bodies in a Corporate Jungle, Dr. John Barrett examines the relationship between our caveman brains and our stress-filled modern workplace. Among the findings presented within these pages-each chapter headed by a humorous illustration featuring cavemen in modern situations-are
- evaluations of our basic needs through the lens of evolution;
- specific suggestions for how to reduce stress and become your happiest, healthiest, most productive self;
- tips for finding the motivation you need to succeed; and
- keys to cultivating useful skills for your personal and professional life.
Modern life seems much more complicated than it was in the old days, and we're all doing our best to survive in this chaotic world. If you can fend off unnecessary stress and stay focused on what you truly need-mentally, physically, psychologically, and emotionally-you'll be well on your way to good health, happiness, and success. Caveman Bodies in a Corporate Jungle shows you how.
