“Finding Focus is an essential read for our distracted times. Focus begins with the body—how we eat, sleep and exercise—and Dr. Montminy translates the latest research into practical steps and simple behavioral changes that will empower you to reclaim your attention.”
Mark Hyman, MD, Author of the #1 New York Times best seller, Young Forever
“Zelana put her life's work into creating a comprehensive guide for better living, which is both engaging and enjoyable to read. Her advice covers key aspects of life, including nutrition, sleep, exercise, work, and, most importantly, maintaining focus in a world full of distractions. Her guide is practical and captivating—I read it in one sitting.”
Ayelet Fishbach, PhD, Professor of Behavioral Science, author of Get It Done: Surprising Lessons from The Science of Motivation
"This book is brilliant. Without focus, we can't achieve our goals, or even worse, we set lower goals and achieve them but leave potential on the table. Dr. Zelana gives us the understanding and tools to focus and achieve the life of our dreams."
Ezra Frech, 2x Paralympic Gold Medalist
“Filled with helpful applications and science-packed insights, this practical guide to improving our mental focus empowers us to create real changes in our daily lives that can improve our mental and physical health.

Unpopular opinion: our kids aren’t drowning because they can’t handle life. They’re drowning because life no longer asks them to swim.
We’ve stripped away every bit of friction that once made childhood feel real. Every delay. Every pause. Every unanswered question. And we did it for all the right reasons: to keep them safe, to make things fair, to make sure they never feel the ache we once did.
But here we are. Anxious kids. Burned-out parents. A culture sprinting toward ease and somehow feeling more exhausted than ever.
We live in a world that wants change to be cinematic. Three-second hooks. Ring-light confessions. A “before and after” you can swipe. But the nervous system doesn’t move at the speed of the algorithm. It moves at the speed of trust.
The loudest changes aren’t always the deepest. The deep ones root invisibly, under your calendar, beneath your coping, inside the way you speak to yourself before bed. They don’t trend. They translate. They re-teach your body what safe feels like.
