Brain Wash

Detox Your Mind for Clearer Thinking, Deeper Relationships and Lasting Happiness

De: David Perlmutter

Narrado por: Peter Ganim

The number-one New York Times best-selling author of Grain Brain, and his physician son, explore how modern culture threatens to rewire our brains and damage our health, offering a practical plan for healing.

Contemporary life provides us with infinite opportunities, along with endless temptations. We can eat whatever we want, whenever we want. We can immerse ourselves in the vast, enticing world of digital media. We can buy goods and services with the touch of a button or the swipe of a finger. But living in this 24/7 hyper-reality poses serious risks to our physical and mental states, our connections to others and even to the world at large.

Brain Wash builds from a simple premise: Our brains are being gravely manipulated, resulting in behaviours that leave us more lonely, anxious, depressed, distrustful, illness-prone and overweight than ever before. Based on the latest science, the audiobook identifies the mental hijacking that undermines each and every one of us, and it presents the tools necessary to think more clearly, make better decisions, strengthen bonds with others and develop healthier habits. Featuring a 10-day boot camp program, including a meal plan and 40 delicious recipes, Brain Wash is the key to cultivating a more purposeful and fulfilling life.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Good book, a lot to think about

excellent book, some what heavily relying on correlation, but it can still be useful in your own life

Extremely valuable

A life changing book. I am very grateful that the Perlmutters wrote this book and it all makes such beautiful sense although it's not all easily apparent. There were many 'aha!' moments throughout this book, even to someone who loves reading this genre, there's still lots of new nuggets to be found. Very much worth my time and has changed my life and I am so excited about the information herein that I have started teaching my kids what I have learned - hearing my 4 year old say with such confidence 'prefrontal cortex' is gorgeous and even he understands that there are things he can do to influence the growth and power of his brain and happiness! I will be giving it as gifts and recommending it to friends.

Recommended as an overwiev.

Not a bad book to start with but just a scratch on the surface of multiple deep and interesting topics. This is an overwiev of health topics relevant for the modern human, nothing is in depth and if you have a specific health issue or interest there are other books more suitable. If you want a orientation for further reading this may do the trick. Not for the person who have already read many health related books.
