Book description
AARP Digital Editions offer you practical tips, proven solutions, and
expert guidance. AARP Rewire Your Brain shows you how to rewire
your brain to improve virtually every aspect of your life using the
latest research in neuroscience and psychology on neuroplasticity and
evidence-based practices.
Not long ago, it was thought that the brain you were born with was
the brain you would die with, and that the brain cells you had at
birth were the most you would ever possess. Your brain was thought to
be “hardwired” to function in predetermined ways. It turns out that's
not true. Your brain is not hardwired, it's "softwired" by
experience. This book shows you how you can rewire parts of the brain
to feel more positive about your life, remain calm during stressful
times, and improve your social relationships. Written by a leader in
the field of Brain-Based Therapy, it teaches you how to activate the
parts of your brain that have been underactivated and calm down those
areas that have been hyperactivated so that you feel positive about
your life and remain calm during stressful times. You will also learn
to improve your memory, boost your mood, have better relationships,
and get a good night sleep.
