When burnt-out nurse and wannabe writer, Ella, flees her suffocating life in Melbourne for a housesitting assignment on a remote rural property, she is thrust into a brutal and unfamiliar landscape. Her budding friendship with Tom from the neighbouring property reveals a more tender side to the land, with a vast beauty that penetrates all her defences, and stirs neglected yearnings and unsayable questions. Yet this strange mix of brutality and tenderness also uncovers buried bones of the past, and Ella's stubborn curiosity draws her into a dangerous mystery that has her spinning blind. Has her presence here disturbed more than memories, and will the swirling storm threaten to waken more than the land's red dust?

Meet your brain as you've never encountered it before. In this lively and imaginative book, psychologist Rita McInnes invites your curious brain to join her and other characters in dialogue to uncover the experience of brain change in the everyday. i-brainmap takes you on a journey of discovery into practical brain change, starting with a field map of experience on how the brain gets Stuck on Stress (SoS brain) and what you can do to free your brain. If you've ever tried to kick a habit, felt stuck in the same old round-and-round conversation in your head, watched on in horror as you threw a tantrum in the boss's office or at the traffic lights, or experienced any other kind of 'stuck', i-brainmap can show you the simple secrets of practical brain change. i-brainmap combines insights, discovered from intimately tracking brain integration in hundreds of clients, with brain science. The techniques used in i-brainmap are grounded in the principles of mindfulness to create a practical, bottom-up approach to brain change.
