A licensed professional counselor has released her playfully irreverent guide to overcoming life's challenges, mastering stillness in motion and, ultimately, discovering and becoming one's authentic self. In "Learning to Slow the F*ck Down: And Other Life Lessons," author Erica Mortimer twines her personal stories of growth with her perspective as a seasoned mental health clinician and invites readers to strip away limiting beliefs and negative patterns of thought, empowering them to create for themselves a life they truly love.
"Learning to Slow the F*ck Down" was born out of a desire to help the walking wounded that Mortimer encounters every day, she said. Ultimately, she wanted to provide others with a simple introduction to spiritual concepts and practices, such as being intentional and learning to meditate, while also helping readers to move past the commonly perceived roadblocks and limiting beliefs that prevent them from living their truth.

"I wrote this book because my journey to mindfulness was not a pretty one," Mortimer said. "Not so long ago, I had someone tell me I needed to slow the f-ck down, and in that moment, I thought I knew what they meant. But I really didn't, and it took me years to figure it out. When I finally understood, I had to call them up and thank them."
An unflinching and deeply personal approach to learning to become more present in an increasingly fast-paced and technology-centric world, "Learning to Slow the F*ck Down" teaches readers how to respond to life rather than react to it, educates them on the joy intention can bring to simple actions, such as eating and conversing with others, and shows them how to celebrate and love the parts of themselves that they struggle with most.
