A Powerful New Method for Optimizing Your Mental Health

What's Going Right

Dr Paul Conti is a graduate of Stanford University School of Medicine. He completed his psychiatry training at Stanford and at Harvard, where he was appointed Chief Resident. He served on the medical faculty at Harvard before moving to Portland, Oregon to found his own comprehensive mental health clinic, Pacific Premier Group PC. Dr Conti's life-changing trauma work has earned him several high-profile fans including Lady Gaga, Peter Attia, Tim Ferriss and Mel Robbins. He has also appeared on the chart-topping business podcast The Tim Ferriss Show.

In a world where it’s easy to feel like everything is going wrong, world-renowned psychiatrist Paul Conti asks – what’s going right? 
 
Despite the increasing availability of mental health resources and freedom of people talking about it, the data around mental health shows a steady decline in happiness. Why are all the metrics heading the wrong way? With his characteristic warmth, optimism and expertise however, Dr Paul Conti wants you to flip the narrative and ask yourself the empowering question: how can we go right? 
 
Based on his Generative Drive framework, and as seen on the wildly popular podcast series on Andrew Huberman’s Huberman Lab, What’s Going Right will guide readers to understanding and assessing their mental health. Also informed by Paul’s own journey and his decades of experience helping patients, this book will provide you with a simple, science-based framework for improving mental health, fortified with practical tools that you can tailor to yourself in the real world. 
 
With all Dr. Conti's straightforwardness and sincerity, What’s Going Right is an accessible and inspiring mental health protocol that will empower you to reach your fullest potential – starting with what’s going right.

How Trauma Works and How We Can Heal From It

Do the work to heal yourself and find a path through trauma. 
 
Trauma is everywhere and so many of us are silently affected by it. Stressful, challenging and frightening events can happen to anyone, at any age, leaving us feeling overwhelmed, anxious and exhausted. Left unchecked, difficult experiences can have a lasting psychological effect on our wellbeing. 
 
In Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic, leading psychiatrist Dr Paul Conti sets out a unique set of tools anyone can access to help recognise the signs of trauma, heal from past hurt and find the road to recovery. 
 
Drawing on the most recent scientific research, Dr Conti breaks down the topic into clear sections, looking at why trauma happens, how it manifests in the body and what we can do to move past it. In the book, you'll discover the three different types of trauma you might face, as well as practical exercises and solutions for getting to the root of the problem. 
 
This is an important, life-affirming book, one that invites you to empower yourself against trauma, own your life experiences and learn to thrive, not just survive, in the wake of life's difficulties.
