A promotional graphic featuring a book titled 'Restless' by Kristen Mosier, LMFT. The graphic asks if the viewer often has a nagging sense that something better could be around the corner, with a pink handwritten-style text saying 'Order Now!' on a light pink background, and a logo and social media handle at the bottom.

Do you frequently wonder if there’s something better around the corner, never quite able to settle into where you are? Are you tired of questioning your decisions and wondering why you never feel satisfied, even after achieving long-held goals? What would life be like if you experienced it in the present moment free of regret, indecision, and constant longing?

For the reader who imagines the grass is greener elsewhere or that they should be on a different path, Restless examines the root of these tendencies and maps out a path back to the present moment.

Inside you’ll discover:

  • Why we’re so restless 

  • How restlessness shows up in our daily lives

  • Help for decoding the message behind emotional restlessness

  • Guided exercises for accessing your intuition and clarifying your values

  • Ways to cultivate both aliveness and presence

Restless will remind you that you are enough, just as you are. It will help you to find the deeper message beneath your discomfort, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and align your choices with what truly matters to you.

“Restless is a smart, compassionate guide for anyone who loves their life—but keeps wondering if something better is out there. Therapist Kristen Mosier helps readers understand the quiet pull of “what if” thinking and shows how to stop chasing the next thing and start really showing up for the life they already have—more present, more grounded, and fully charged.”

— Meaghan B Murphy, author of Your Fully Charged Life, editor in chief of Woman's Day

“I am incredibly grateful for Kristen Mosier's book, Restless, which eloquently puts into words the yearning, nagging feeling that so many of us have in an overstimulating world with too many options. Not only does the author validate the common experience of dissatisfaction and a desire for more, but she also offers practical suggestions for finding greater meaning and contentment. I devoured this book and will be encouraging my clients, friends, and family to read it as well!”

—Liz Kelly, LICSW, therapist and author of This Book Is Cheaper Than Therapy: A No-Nonsense Guide to Improving Your Mental Health

“A fresh take on a novel topic, Restless is an ode to the wanderer within all of us. Mosier offers compassionate guidance and practical advice on how to keep our spark alive without turning away from the good that is here and now. Impressively written and as relevant as ever, you'll have trouble putting this one down! Restless will be a regular on my list of recommended reading for clients and friends alike.”

— Dr. Michelle Frank, clinical psychologist and co-author of A Radical Guide for Women with ADHD: Embrace Neurodiversity, Live Boldly, and Break Through Barriers

For those who are looking to reduce regret and cultivate contentment (in other words, all of us!), Restless is the perfect guide to implementing meaningful and lasting change. And Kristen Mosier is just the person to help us get there! I will be recommending this resource to my clients and students.

“Notice the blessings right in front of us” is a perfect way to summarize Kristen Mosier’s powerfully uplifting, inspired book. Throughout each page and chapter Kristen invites you gently into her world, and therefore yours, to discover, and for some to re-discover, the power of the present moment; where the grass is as green as you choose it to be.”

— Rodney Hicks, Broadway Actor & Playwright, best known for Come From Away and Rent

“In a world where improvement and optimization drive every decision to a fault, Restless is the book we all need. I highly recommend it to anyone who’s always thinking, “I just need to make one more change and then I’ll be happy.” Mosier invites readers to step out of constant self-assessment and the endless search for something “better,” and instead to let their values and true needs lead the way.
