Mind Training: The Science of Self-Empowerment - Paperback

by Ravinder K. Taylor (Author), Eldon Taylor (Author)

"I am often skeptical when considering reading a self-help book about how to train your brain. Most are trite and devoid of science. Mind Training does an excellent job of blending psychology and brain science, in an easily readable fashion, making real change possible."

Mind Training-the art of tweaking formerly subconscious brain processes to eliminate self-destructive behaviors, enhance health and vitality, and supercharge success potential.

We know that exercising regularly will bring numerous benefits, from improved health and wellness to enhanced creativity, but most do not know that training the mind will bring a host of benefits too.

Mind Training examines how the brain works, including how it can create mechanical like habits, employ self-destructive behaviors, reward failure and more. It shows how consciousness is built upon unconscious processes and the kind of impact this can have. This mind exploration is carried out with a keen focus on how this information can be used to improve the quality of life by maximizing natural talents and abilities.

Mind Training presents a way of life that promotes a process of conscious living. Having an awareness of the 'whys' behind some of our behaviors will reduce many of the self-destructive patterns that all of us are subject to in certain areas of our lives. Understanding some of our brain chemistry mechanisms allows us to take some manual control to increase our successes and overall feelings of well-being. Discovering some of the automatic mind mechanisms makes it possible to offset the ability for others to exploit them.

Life educates your mind to accept less, thereby limiting and defining you. You can do it better. Drawing on over 200 solid scientific studies, Mind Training is the self-help workout regimen that will enhance every corner of your life.

Areas examined include Psychology, Self-Help, Self-Actualization, Self-Sabotage, Personal Power, Subliminal, Hypnosis, Meditation, Mindfulness, Affirmations, Happy Brain Chemicals, Illusions, Pygmalion Effect, Optimism vs Pessimism, Gratitude, and Spirituality.
