Richard O’Connor – Rewire:Change Your Brain to Break Bad Habits,Overcome Addiction,Conquer Behavior

The bestselling author of Undoing Depression offers a brain-based guide to help us finally get rid of the bad habits that plague us

We humans tend to get in our own way time and time again-whether it comes to not speaking up for ourselves, going back to bad romantic partners, our umpteenth diet, or engaging in any of a range of bad habits we just can’t seem to shake. In Rewire, renowned psychotherapist Richard O’Connor, PhD, reveals why our bad habits die so hard. We have two brains-one a thoughtful, conscious, deliberative self, and the other an automatic self that does most of the work without our attention. Using new research and knowledge about how the brain works, the audiobook clears a path to lasting, effective change for behaviors that include:

? procrastination
? overeating
? chronic disorganization
? staying in bad situations
? excessive worrying
? risk-taking
? passive aggression
? self-medication
? and more

Bringing together many different fields in psychology and brain science, Rewire offers a refreshing, science-based new paradigm for readers of Charles Duhigg and Frank Lawlis.
