What Customers Say About Change Your Brain, Change Your Life: The Breakthrough Program for Conquering Anxiety, Depression, Obsessiveness, Anger, and Impulsiveness:

is the professional opinion explained by Dr. Amen in plain English. It is like you have a doctor appointment at your convenience.

If you are not a doctor but want to learn about potential reasons for behavioral abnormalities, emotional volatility, depression, emotional disconnection from others, impulsivity, attentional deficits and the like, this book has a myriad of examples that expand your thoughts on possibilities and then possible treatments. The actual photos of brain scans are educational and create a powerful expression of what is possible when a correct diagnosis is made.Rena ReeseFounder, Soul Salon International and author of The Soul Salon, among other titles

This is a CD that everyone should own. A lot of good infomation that will make you think. I saw the author on our local PBS station and was impressed.

It's a bit of a catch-22 in that if you can practice this stuff you probably don't need it, and if you need it you probably are going to find it hard to practice. I wasn't that smart, and it's only after wading through it two times that I realized that was the wise way to use the book.

That may speak as much to the book as to me- it may have been better as a little less of an ambitious work, especially if the reader is meant to follow through with any of it.As self-help books go it is interesting, and seems to have some pretty good (if not revolutionary) ideas. Get rid of automatic negative thoughts, that sort of thing.

I usually put forth a pretty decent effort when I bother to write a review, but I'm just going to be honest and warn you ahead of time that this is will be a marginal critique.To begin with, while I have actually read the book through twice, complete with underlining and marking important items, I have forgotten nearly everything I read. Again, this seems to me the book's weakness, but if you are smart enough to pull out the handful of things that really seem to apply to you and ignore the rest, you can probably derive some benefit.

Most of the ideas are easier said than done, and it's probably the rare person who is going to undo twenty, thirty, or forty years of habituation (not to mention hundreds of generations of genetics) and create a new way of living life. I tend to fall into default patterns, as do most people, and unless the reverse course has some kind of fairly immediate benefit/reward for behavior modification the behavior isn't going to modify much.

I will probably get back to it one of these days and see what jumps out at me, but it is an intimidating thought.Like most self-help books, it is at best as good as the reader, and the average reader who is desperate enough to dive into a tome like this probably has more than one issue, and those issues have probably found a pretty good home and don't want to be messed with. Again, my advice is to pick out two or three key chapters and concentrate and them and don't try everything at once.

The book will give the reader many insights into the depths of the human brain. Change Your Brain, Change Your Life by Daniel G. It's a prescription drug culture. Don't be afraid trust in God where there life there's hope.By the way, I see from reading the reviews on this site some people have recommend my book, "The Enlightenment, What God Told Me After One Million Prayers: A Message for Everyone," and again I just want them to know how much I appreciate their recommendation, especially at such a excellent site. Amen tries to help people through meditation not medication. Other remedies he suggests are self-hypnosis and biofeedback, herbal remedies and dietary supplements among others. I wrote this book out of love and for the glory of God and Jesus, not for my own fame or fortune. I welcome people to read my book, I'm sure you'll find this non-fiction account of a loving God just as and inspiring.
