Bridging cutting-edge neuroscience and ancient meditation tools, Fit Mind is a practical guide to unlocking our highest potential for well-being in everyday life.
Our minds rarely savor the present. Instead, they replay painful memories, spiral into needless worries, mildly panic when the Wi-Fi drops, and chatter internally at up to 4,000 words per minute. While this may seem normal, there’s a better alternative: a fit mind.
Former Buddhist monk and FitMind founder Liam McClintock shares a powerful, little-known meditation method that’s accessible anywhere—at home, at work, or on the move. This training is both simple and enjoyable. Yet it goes far beyond conventional mental health, tapping into our full capacity for vitality, presence, compassion, and enduring joy. That is, mental fitness.
Despite an Ivy League education and a promising career in private equity, Liam found himself unfulfilled. The problem, he realized, was all in his mind. So he left finance and studied under renowned meditation masters across the globe—from the Amazon jungle to the Himalayan foothills. How do these "mental Olympians" train? Which techniques are most effective? And how do they live, day to day?
Eventually, Liam met a Buddhist monk who had the answers. This eccentric teacher revealed a method for optimal mental fitness. Grounded in 2,500 years of contemplative wisdom and supported by modern science, it offers a complete toolkit for beginners and experienced meditators alike.
