Reviews"A testament to mind over brain ... It's the truth of the matter that sheer willpower can truly make you break free." --Leonardo DiCaprio "Operating on the highly rational perspective that we are not our brains, but rather, substantial free agents who exercise control over our brains, Schwartz and Gladding develop a simple, yet profoundly insightful approach for developing a flourishing life. The result is truly life-giving, and it will bring healing and hope to all who read it and practice its wisdom." --J.P. Moreland, author of The God Question "How can the brain, which is just a complex network of interconnected nerve cells, give rise to consciousness and to thought? Dr. Jeffrey Schwartz and Dr. Rebecca Gladding argue, persuasively, that the mind actually has massive causal effects on the functioning of the brain. In other words, you can not only change the way you think, feel and behave through conscious effort when you're upset, but you can also change the programming and chemistry of your brain. A compelling and important message." --David Burns, M.D., author of Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy "The idea that we can deliberately and systematically change our brains with our minds was once thought ridiculous. But now, largely due to Jeffrey Schwartz and his UCLA research on neuro-plasticity and OCD, this once revolutionary idea is well accepted. Rebecca Gladding and Jeffrey Schwartz adapt Schwartz's extraordinarily successful program for a mainstream audience giving simple, self-directed tools to help achieve greater happiness, emotional balance, and overall well-being." --Susan Kaiser Greenland, author of The Mindful Child

SynopsisTwo neuroscience experts explain how their Four Step method can help break free of unhealthy thoughts and actions-and change bad habits for good. You Are Not Your Brain is the book that readers of Jeffrey Schwartz's bestseller Brain Lock have been asking for. Schwartz and Rebecca Gladding have refined a program that successfully explains how the brain works and why we sometimes feel as though we've lost control of our own thoughts and feelings. This uncomfortable sensation, whether it rears its head as anxiety, self-deprecating thoughts, panic attacks, or compulsive overindulgence, is actually false. Those negative reactions are not representative of you and no longer need to control your life. You Are Not Your Brain not only breaks down why we're plagued by habits that aren't in line with our ultimate goals but also provides the guidance and support for change. The key to getting the life you want is to make your brain work for you, and Schwartz and Gladding supply the necessary tools in their Four Step method. While scientifically founded in cutting-edge brain research, this easy-to-follow program will teach you how to find your loving, smart inner guide and lead a more fulfilling and empowered life.
