The Holistic Lawyer

Use Your Whole Brain to Work Smarter Not Harder

About this book


"This book is a much-needed resource to help lawyers overcome the burnout that is all too common in our profession." —Alexandra Lozano, Esq, author of Be the CEO of Your Law Firm
 
The Holistic Lawyer shows legal professionals that there is a way to keep up their standards without getting overwhelmed.
 
Ritu Goswamy, lawyer and productivity consultant, builds on her successful New Billable Hour™ program in  The Holistic Lawyer where she reveals tools to level up legal professionals' practice even more, using one of their biggest resources: their own brain.  The Holistic Lawyer teaches readers how to move from overwhelm to efficiency and reach maximum success in their professional and personal life. Within its pages, Ritu teaches legal professionals:
 
  • Why lawyers overwork . . . and how to stop
  • How they can use their brain instead of letting it use them
  • Why working hard to prove competence is counterproductive
  • How increasing their emotional intelligence makes them more ethical
  • What steps to take to work more efficiently
 
The legal profession is changing rapidly. It's time for lawyers to work smarter not harder, and Ritu is going to show them how.
 
"A concise and practical guide for lawyers who are aware they need more balance and are open to wrestling with the laws of human nature, especially the law of self-sabotage." —Mary Ellen Hannon, author of Complementary Alternative Medicine
 
"This book has a truly genuine and practical approach to connecting your mind, heart, and body. Ritu does a great step-by-step job at helping you become whole." —Fernando Flores, Esq, author of The Essential Guide to Passing the California Bar
