The bestselling author of Undoing Depression offers a brain-based guide to help us finally get rid of the bad habits that plague us
We humans tend to get in our own way time and time again-whether it comes to not speaking up for ourselves, going back to bad romantic partners, our umpteenth diet, or engaging in any of a range of bad habits we just can't seem to shake. In Rewire, renowned psychotherapist Richard O'Connor, PhD, reveals why our bad habits die so hard. We have two brains-one a thoughtful, conscious, deliberative self, and the other an automatic self that does most of the work without our attention. Using new research and knowledge about how the brain works, the audiobook clears a path to lasting, effective change for behaviors that include:
¿ procrastination
¿ overeating
¿ chronic disorganization
¿ staying in bad situations
¿ excessive worrying
¿ risk-taking
¿ passive aggression
¿ self-medication
¿ and more
Bringing together many different fields in psychology and brain science, Rewire offers a refreshing, science-based new paradigm for readers of Charles Duhigg and Frank Lawlis.
