Amazon.com Review:
In this age of do-it-yourself health care (heck, if the doctoronly sees you for 10 minutes each visit, what other options arethere?), Change Your Brain, Change Your Life fits inperfectly. Filled with "brain prescriptions" (among them cognitiveexercises and nutritional advice) that are geared toward readerswho've experienced anxiety, depression, impulsiveness, excessive angeror worry, and obsessive behavior, Change Your Brain, Change YourLife milks the mind-body connection for all it's worth.
Written by a psychiatrist and neuroscientist who has also authored abook on attention deficit disorder, Change Your Brain containsdozens of brain scans of patients with various neurological problems,from caffeine, nicotine, and heroin addiction to manic-depression toepilepsy. These scans, often showing large gaps in neurologicalactivity or areas of extreme overactivity, are downright frighteningto look at, and Dr. Amen should know better than to resort to suchscare tactics. But he should also be commended for advocating naturalremedies, including deep breathing, guided imagery, meditation,self-hypnosis, and biofeedback for treating disorders that are sofrequently dealt with by prescription only.

- Understanding people's actions
I think this book help me understand why people do what they do based on what's happening to their body, or what they have put into their body. It gave me the knowledge to have compassion whereas before I would not, and what can be done to start the healing process, if they are willing.

Rating: - I can't say enough!!!
My husband had a brain scan at the Amen clinic in 2006 on the recommendation of his doctor. Wow is it bad. After recently seeing the video as part of my school classes at Goodwill, I have come to understand his behavior changes. We are that couple that got an "F". I have been telling him some of the things Dr. Amen talked about, but to no avail. I ordered the DVD and book for him to see and read. This is an answer to prayer in improving our relationship.God bless you Dr. Amen. I will be forever grateful ... Read More
