The first book

Apples for the Mind

Creating emotional balance, peak performance & lifelong wellbeing.

What it's about

The skills of a healthy mind — taught, not assumed

Just as we know what to eat to protect our physical health, there are daily practices that protect psychological health. Apples for the Mind distils the preventive psychology of the Healthy Minds program — the evidence-based curriculum that has reached more than 50,000 people in schools and workplaces — into one practical book: how to handle unhelpful thinking, build emotional balance, perform under pressure, and maintain wellbeing for life.

  • Catch thinking errors before they catch you — the mental habits behind stress and low mood.
  • Build emotional balance you can rely on under pressure, at work and at home.
  • Make wellbeing a practice — trackable, teachable daily skills.

“Probably the best and most useful self-help book I have ever read!”
