How to rewire your brain to improve virtually every aspect of
your life-based on the latest research in neuroscience and
psychology on neuroplasticity and evidence-based practices
Not long ago, it was thought that the brain you were born with
was the brain you would die with, and that the brain cells you had
at birth were the most you would ever possess. Your brain was
thought to be "hardwired" to function in predetermined
ways. It turns out that's not true. Your brain is not hardwired,
it's "softwired" by experience. This book shows you how you can
rewire parts of the brain to feel more positive about your life,
remain calm during stressful times, and improve your social
relationships. Written by a leader in the field of Brain-Based
Therapy, it teaches you how to activate the parts of your brain
that have been underactivated and calm down those areas that have
been hyperactivated so that you feel positive about your life and
remain calm during stressful times. You will also learn to improve
your memory, boost your mood, have better relationships, and get a
good night sleep.
