Our thought lives have incredible power over our mental, emotional, and even physical well-being. In fact, our thoughts can either limit us to what we believe we can do or release us to experience abilities well beyond our expectations. When we choose a mindset that extends our abilities rather than placing limits on ourselves, we will experience greater intellectual satisfaction, emotional control, and physical health. The only question is . . . how?

Backed by up-to-date scientific research and biblical insight, Dr. Caroline Leaf empowers readers to take control of their thoughts in order to take control of their lives. In this practical book, readers will learn to use

• The 5-step Switch on Your Brain Learning Program, to build memory and learn effectively
• The Gift Profile, to discover the unique way they process information
• The Mindfulness Guide, to optimize their thought life and find their inner resilience

In the 21st century people live on their wits. What determines how successful they are in whatever they do is their mental ability and, to a large extent, that depends on their memory quality. The author and colleagues of London University discovered that memory quality has even replaced IQ as the dominant predictor of school outcomes. Deriving from such research, this book, now in its third edition, contains a powerful system for enhancing memory quality. Written in plain, concise language, it is simple, effective and comprehensive in its application. It has been tested over and over again on the young, the old, the bright and the not so bright and it can be mastered in just 7 - 10 hours.

Hoe en wat ons dink, het ’n geweldige invloed op ons verstandelike, emosionele en selfs fisieke welsyn. Om die waarheid te sê, ons denke kan ons beperk tot dit wat ons glo ons kan doen, of dit kan ons dinge laat ervaar waarvan ons nooit kon droom nie. Wanneer ons ’n denkwyse kies wat ons vermoëns verruim, sal ons groter intellektuele satisfaksie, emosionele beheer en fisieke gesondheid ervaar. Die vraag is net: Hoe?
