9781583334836: You Are Not Your Brain: The 4-Step Solution for Changing Bad Habits, Ending Unhealthy Thinking, and Taki ng Control of Your Life

Synopsis

Two of America's most eminent psychiatrists Jeffrey M. Schwartz and Rebecca Gladding present a simple four step program to re-wiring the brain. Through explaining how the brain works and why humans often feel besieged by overactive brain circuits such as bad habit and social anxieties, the program offers practical advice for controlling indecision and self doubt. By carefully outlining their program Schwartz and Gladding show readers how to identify negative impulses, channel them through the power of focused attention and lead a more fulfilling life.

Review

"A testament to mind over brain ... It's the truth of the matter that sheer willpower can truly make you break free."
--Leonardo DiCaprio

"Operating on the highly rational perspective that we are not our brains, but rather, substantial free agents who exercise control over our brains, Schwartz and Gladding develop a simple, yet profoundly insightful approach for developing a flourishing life. The result is truly life-giving, and it will bring healing and hope to all who read it and practice its wisdom."
--J.P. Moreland, author of The God Question

"How can the brain, which is just a complex network of interconnected nerve cells, give rise to consciousness and to thought? Dr. Jeffrey Schwartz and Dr. Rebecca Gladding argue, persuasively, that the mind actually has massive causal effects on the functioning of the brain. In other words, you can not only change the way you think, feel and behave through conscious effort when you're upset, but you can also change the programming and chemistry of your brain. A compelling and important message."
--David Burns, M.D., author of Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy

"The idea that we can deliberately and systematically change our brains with our minds was once thought ridiculous. But now, largely due to Jeffrey Schwartz and his UCLA research on neuro-plasticity and OCD, this once revolutionary idea is well accepted. Rebecca Gladding and Jeffrey Schwartz adapt Schwartz's extraordinarily successful program for a mainstream audience giving simple, self-directed tools to help achieve greater happiness, emotional balance, and overall well-being."
--Susan Kaiser Greenland, author of The Mindful Child
