Overstimulated

Finding Calm and Connection in a Noisy World




Quieten your mind, restore balance and learn to thrive in a world that never stops.

In today’s hyper-connected world, our nervous systems are bombarded by constant sensory and mental overload, leaving us restless, distracted and disconnected from both ourselves and others.

Drawing on cutting-edge neuroscience, Overstimulated reveals how constant stimulation doesn’t just fray our nerves, it hijacks our attention, erodes creativity and even robs us of the quiet moments essential for self-reflection and insight.

Told with her trademark wit and personal stories alongside the latest science, clinical psychologist and the founder of the Australian Institute of Human Wellness, Dr Anastasia Hronis, will teach you how to:
- embrace stillness
- unlock your mind’s natural problem-solving abilities
- foster deeper relationships
- reclaim your sense of self in an age of endless distraction.

Overstimulated is the ultimate guide for anyone feeling swept up in the relentless current of modern life. You’ll explore how modern-day life became so overloaded, explore the real consequences that overstimulation has on our brains, bodies and relationships, and shine a light on the impact for children growing up in this fast-paced age.

Dr Hronis offers a roadmap for how to navigate the noise, and make space for what matters, so you feel more present, purposeful and connected to yourself and the world around you.
