From the back cover:

Dr. Daniel Amen’s groundbreaking Memory Rescue plan can help you change your brain to improve your memory today-and decrease your risk for memory-related problems in the future!

Your brain’s history is not its destiny. Even if you have brain fog or trouble remembering now, it doesn’t mean you always will. You can start having a better memory today by engaging in the Amen Clinics’ simple Memory Rescue: BRIGHT MINDS program. What’s more, the same plan will improve your energy, mood, sleep, weight, and overall success in life.

Brain-imaging studies prove that the physical changes linked to memory loss actually start in the brain decades before you show any symptoms. Based on an approach that has helped thousands of his patients at the nationally known Amen Clinics as well as the latest medical research, Dr. Amen’s complete Memory Rescue plan-including dietary changes, physical activity, mental exercises, and even spiritual practices-can help you take control of your brain health starting today.

Memory Rescue will enable you to:

identify your risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and memory problems using Dr. Amen’s innovative BRIGHT MINDS approach
create a personalized plan to overcome your own risk factors
develop habits to improve your life by enhancing and retaining memory function
provide constructive support to a family member with dementia or other memory challenges
become the best person you can be in mind, body, and soul

You are not stuck with the memory you have-or the memory loss that threatens your future. Learn the secrets of Memory Rescue, and take steps toward a more vital, satisfying life.

From the flap:

A healthy brain is critical to an amazing life, and one of the most important markers of an unhealthy brain is declining memory.

Although this problem is common as we age, it is not inevitable. And memory loss can be treated most effectively in the early stages. If you or a loved one is struggling with recall or memory, no matter how insignificant it seems, now is the time to get serious about your brain’s health.

Memory Rescue is based on an amazingly simple idea: The best way to sharpen your memory, reverse brain aging, and decrease your risk of Alzheimer’s is to eliminate, prevent, or treat all of the risk factors that steal your mind.

You need this book if:

your memory has never been good and now it’s getting worse
you frequently misplace your keys or phone
you often wonder why you came into a room
you read a book or an article but don’t remember much of it
you notice that a loved one’s failing memory is interfering with everyday tasks
you are concerned about a family member who has been diagnosed with dementia

From diet and supplements to brain exercises and the newest brain-boosting therapies, Memory Rescue shows you how to reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s and improve your memory-beginning today.

Owen frantically seeks a cure for what he thinks are crazed hallucinations, but his delusions become even more sinister. An army of hideous, towering beings, unseen by anyone but Owen, are preying on his girlfriend and classmates, provoking them to self-destruction.

Owen eventually arrives at a mind-bending conclusion: he’s not imagining the evil-everyone else is blind to its reality. He must warn and rescue those he loves . . . but this proves to be no simple mission. Will he be able to convince anyone to believe him before it’s too late?

Owen’s heart-pounding journey through truth and delusion will force him to reconsider everything he believes. He both longs for and fears the answers to questions that are quickly becoming too dangerous to ignore.

To hear Beatrice Agnew tell it, she entered the world with her mouth tightly shut. Just because she finds out she’s dying doesn’t mean she can’t keep it that way.

Determined to help her Granny B mend fences with her far-flung brood, Evelyn turns her grandmother’s heart and home inside out.

The End of Mental Illness

12,99 $

The end of mental illness begins with a revolution in brain health.
Though the incidence of conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorders, addictions, PTSD, and ADHD is skyrocketing, standard treatment and success rates in treating these conditions have barely changed in the last seven decades. Meanwhile, the stigma of "mental illness" prevents many people from getting the help they need.

Based on his brain-imaging work at Amen Clinics, with more than 170,000 scans on patients from 121 countries, neuroscientist and psychiatrist Daniel Amen, MD, has learned that most psychiatric illnesses are not mental health issues at all. Rather, they are brain health issues that steal your mind. This one idea changes everything: Get your brain right and your mind will follow.

In The End of Mental Illness, Dr. Amen challenges an outdated psychiatric paradigm and helps readers improve the health of their own brains, minimizing or reversing conditions that may be preventing them from living full and emotionally healthy lives.

Discover:

what is causing the epidemic rise of mental health issues and how to prevent them
why standard treatments often fail, and why diagnosing and treating patients based on symptoms alone often misses the true cause of those symptoms, resulting in poor outcomes
simple things you can do to heal your brain and improve your mood, focus, energy, and overall sense of happiness

The End of Mental Illness gives you the power to strengthen your brain to improve your mind.

From the flap:
There is new hope for those dealing with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, PTSD, ADHD, and addictions.

An evidence-based revolution in the diagnosis and treatment of these conditions is improving outcomes for the first time in decades, and Daniel Amen, MD, neuroscientist and double board–certified psychiatrist, is helping to lead the charge.

In The End of Mental Illness, Dr. Amen explains why you no longer have to rely solely on standard treatments offered by experts trained according to an old paradigm. While medication and talk therapy are sometimes helpful and appropriate, there is much you can do to improve your own brain health. And more and more practitioners are using evidence-based neuroscience to help their patients.

The End of Mental Illness will:

give you hope that we are on the cusp of a whole new paradigm of treating issues like depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, and even schizophrenia
explain why standard treatment may not have helped you or a loved one be healed, or truly healed for the long-term
teach you how to contribute to your own brain healing and prevent or reverse the problems that are stealing your mind
show you how to keep your brain healthy or rescue it if it’s headed toward a dark place

Get your brain right and your mind will follow!
