It is a valuable contribution indeed." -- Avigail Moor Ph.D ., Clinical Psychologist, Tel Hai College, Israel "Once I started to read Rewire Your Brain, it was hard to stop. John Arden has a gift for making complicated and advanced scientific findings interesting and easy to understand. I have not been reading much about brain structures, processes, and neurotransmitters since studying first year psychology almost 30 years ago, a time when the knowledge in this field was quite rudimentary. Rewire Your Brain presents 'old' knowledge and concepts together with results of new research in at way that gives you an updated insight in 'how we are wired.' Even more important, it gives hope and practical advice for both therapists and their patients, but also for healthy individuals who want to improve their memory, mood, or bad habits!" -- Per A Straumsheim , Special Advisor, Norwegian Psychological Association "Dr. Arden tells us all about the brain in an accessible way, he even animates it in some way, in contrast to brain researchers who investigate the brain like an lifeless mechanism. In order to maintain an active and flexible brain, the author shows practical ways of neuropsychologically-competent mastery of brain. Therefore the book is free of theoretical abstractions, scientific dryness, and haughtiness." -- Gayane Shaverdian, Ph.D . Chair and Professor of the Department of Applied Psychology, Yerevan State University, Armenia "This book speaks of a universal language that breaks cultural borders . People from the West will have a better understanding of early Asian therapies and why it is effective; while those from the East will appreciate the contribution of modern Western health perspectives . It gives a scientific explanation of how therapies like meditation, chi-gong, exercise, hypnosis and other non-traditional healing interventions can affect health and longevity. It will certainly rewire the mindsets of many public readers." -- Isabel Echanis-Melgar, PhD ., Chair, Committee on Clinical Psychology, Psychological Association of the PhilippinesDewey Edition22CLASSIFICATION_METADATA{"IsNonfiction":["Yes"],"IsOther":["No"],"IsAdult":["No"],"MuzeFormatDesc":["Trade Paperback"],"IsChildren":["No"],"Genre":["EDUCATION","SELF-HELP","PSYCHOLOGY","MEDICAL","SCIENCE"],"Topic":["Life Sciences / Neuroscience","Cognitive Psychology & Cognition","Neuroscience","Educational Psychology","Personal Growth / Memory Improvement"],"IsTextBook":["Yes"],"IsFiction":["No"]}Dewey Decimal153Table Of ContentPreface vii 1 Firing the Right Cells Together 1 2 Taming Your Amygdala 25 3 Shifting Left 45 4 Cultivating Memory 69 5 Fueling Your Brain 89 6 Healthy Habits: Exercise and Sleep 117 7 Social Medicine 141 8 Resiliency and Wisdom 165 9 The Mindful Attitude 187 References 207 Index 231SynopsisIf you want to change your life, you need to change your brain.
