Switch On Your Brain: The Key to Peak Happiness, Thinking, and Health (Includes the 21-Day Brain Detox Plan)

This is an incredible book! Dr. Leaf supports all her science with Biblical principles, which again aligns with the belief that science doesn't disprove the Bible, it supports it! She is clear and concise. I've purchased this book via Audible and listened to it in its entirety, but decided I'd like a hardcopy to read and in which to make notes. THEN I found out there is a workbook for this book! I haven't started the workbook yet, but the book is a MUST for every one of every adult age! I have started listening to her on YouTube! She is a phenomenal preacher/teacher!

Great book. Lot of insights into how your thought life affects your whole person.

The book provided me with a beautiful way to change my thought life. As a Christian, I can see a better way to focus my thoughts and transform my life!

Wish I had known of this book sooner. One if not the best books written to help you cure your anxiety/depression. Also look up author Dr. Caroline Leaf on YouTube.

I struggled through the first half of this book as the author seem to belabor, a few simple concepts over and over, with a lot of self promoting Content and excessive pseudoscience. I pressed on though, and was rewarded with a useful framework for tearing down strongholds with the five step process. While The book is full of scripture, it seems at times to be cherry-picking to support the thesis, without enough appreciation of the relationship with God in this process real time. Likewise, the discussion of the neuroscience seems to be just enough to support the thesis, without really adding value or insights. To speed read, you could just go to the very useful chapter summaries, or simply read the last five chapters, which have all most all the meat the entire book in 50 pages.

Very good for your mind & heart to be free

I need to read this about 20 more times till I truly understand it and "get it"! But I know it will be worth it not only for me but for my faith community.

This is a fabulous follow up to Dr. Leaf's first book, Who Switched Off My Brain? This book isn't pop psychology! The truth is anyone can literally change the structure of their brain through neuroplasticity as they replace negative thoughts with life giving thoughts.Dr. Leaf does a marvelous jog of combining the science if the brain with Biblical truth. Now there is scientific proof that you can live out the truth of 2Timothy 1:7 "God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind." You really can experience the power of renewing your mind and rewire your life.The ability to capture thoughts and examine them in light of God's word is powerful. The thoughts we have and the things we imagine have the power to change the structure and function of our brain. Every thought literally occupies mental real estate. It's vitally important to guard against negative, fearful or inappropriate thoughts that not only affect the body physically, but can also produce destructive changes in the brain.Dr. Leaf encourages readers that they are not hopelessly bound to "bad genetics" and that genes can be turned on or off based on the meaning that is intentionally assigned to facts, experience and life events. Positive changes in the thought process will result in positive choices and actions in daily living. The quality of life can be drastically improved physically, mentally and emotionally by proactive processing of the thought life.For optimum quality of life, get rid of the brain fog of toxic thoughts such as, bitterness, fear, anger and complaining.
