Paperback. Condition: New. In the legal profession, the pursuit of justice often comes at a cost - a toll on the mental health and well-being of lawyers. Burnout, depression, and elevated rates of anxiety are critical issues affecting the legal community. This book explains why this is happening and what lawyers can do to manage the stress and anxiety which is endemic in the legal profession.This book offers a holistic approach to a solution for lawyers. Every lawyer is different and there is no "one size fits all" solution. In addressing a mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual approach, every lawyer can find what works for them. By focusing on neurological causes and solutions, lawyers are given tools that have been reserved for mental health professionals. This is a system that was designed for attorneys; however, it has been successfully applied in many different professions.This book serves as a wake-up call to the legal profession, shedding light on the concerning rates of burnout, depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts among lawyers.

Gordon Whaley, his copy; known for his work on the Golgi apparatus.
