From the Publisher
A manual for relating to the brain in a revolutionary new
way, Super Brain shows you how to use your
brain as a gateway for achieving health, happiness, and spiritual
growth. The authors are two pioneers: bestselling author and
physician Deepak Chopra and Harvard Medical School professor
Rudolph E. Tanzi, one of the world''s foremost experts on the
causes of Alzheimer's. They have merged their wisdom and expertise
for a bold new understanding of the "three-pound universe" and its
untapped potential.
In contrast to the "baseline brain" that fulfills the tasks of
everyday life, Chopra and Tanzi propose that, through a person's
increased self-awareness and conscious intention, the brain can be
taught to reach far beyond its present limitations. "We are living
in a golden age for brain research, but is this a golden age
for your brain?" they ask.
Super Brain explains how it can be, by combining
cutting-edge research and spiritual insights, demolishing the five
most widespread myths about the brain that limit your potential,
and then showing you methods to:
-Use your brain instead of letting it use you
-Create the ideal lifestyle for a healthy brain
-Reduce the risks of aging
-Promote happiness and well-being through the mind-body
connection
-Access the enlightened brain, the gateway to freedom and
bliss
-Overcome the most common challenges, such as memory loss,
depression, anxiety, and obesity
Your brain is capable of incredible healing and constant reshaping.
Through a new relationship with your brain you can transform your
life. In Super Brain, Chopra and Tanzi guide you on a
fascinating journey that envisions a leap in human evolution. The
brain is not just the greatest gift that Nature has given us. It's
the gateway to an unlimited future that you can begin to live
today.
