Happiness is a brain function. With a healthier brain always comes a happier life.
After studying more than 200,000 brain scans of people from 155 countries, Dr. Amen has discovered five primary brain types and seven neuroscience secrets that influence happiness. In You, Happier, he explains them and offers practical, science-based strategies for optimizing your happiness.
Dr. Amen will teach you how to:
- discover your brain type based on your personality and create happiness strategies best suited to you;
- improve your overall brain health to consistently enhance your mood;
- protect your happiness by distancing yourself from the “noise” in your head; and
- make seven simple decisions and ask seven daily questions to enhance your happiness.
Creating consistent happiness is a daily journey. In You, Happier, Dr. Amen walks you through neuroscience-based habits, rituals, and choices that will boost your mood and help you live each day with clearly defined values, purpose, and goals.
It is generally accepted today, and also UK government policy, that
educational authorities must make provision for meeting the needs
of gifted children. But how should they go about it? There is so
much lack of agreement about what is the best strategy, about how
to identify the gifted youngsters and even about what the concept
of giftedness means. The author is a leading expert, who holds a
doctorate from Manchester University in this subject and is a
former Research Director of the Mensa Foundation for Gifted
Children. In plain English, in a balanced way and in a logical
order, he covers everything a teacher, or a parent needs to know to
meet the challenge of educating a gifted child.
If you have ADHD, your brain doesn't work in the same way as a
"normal" or neurotypical brain does because it's wired differently.
You and others may see this difference in circuitry as somehow
wrong or incomplete. It isn't. It does present you with significant
challenges like time management, organization skills,
forgetfulness, trouble completing tasks, mood swings, and
relationship problems. In Your Brain's Not Broken, Dr. Tamara
Rosier explains how ADHD affects every aspect of your life. You'll
finally understand why you think, feel, and act the way you do. Dr.
Rosier applies her years of coaching others to offer you the
critical practical tools that can dramatically improve your life
and relationships. Anyone with ADHD--as well as anyone who lives
with or loves someone with ADHD--will find here a compassionate,
encouraging guide to living well and with hope.
Your brain is always listening and responding to these hidden
influences and unless you recognize and deal with them, they can steal
your happiness, spoil your relationships, and sabotage your health.
This book will teach you to tame the:
- Dragons from the Past that ignite your most painful
emotions;
- Negative Thought Dragons that attack you, fueling anxiety
and depression;
- They and Them Dragons, people in your life whose own
dragons do battle with yours;
- Bad Habit Dragons that increase the chances you’ll be
overweight, overwhelmed, and an underachiever;
- Addicted Dragons that make you lose control of your health,
wealth, and relationships;
- Scheming Dragons, advertisers and social media sites that
steal your attention.
In Your Brain Is Always Listening, Dr. Daniel Amen shows you how to
recognize harmful dragons and gives you the weapons to vanquish them.
With these practical tools, you can stop feeling sad, mad, nervous, or
out of control and start being happier, calmer, and more in control of
your own destiny.
