THE PROGRAM The Brain-Smart Approach to the Healthiest You: The Life-Changing 12-Week Method

Cassandra Campbell’s mature-sounding tone and understated authority work well with this cutting-edge guide to developing better health habits. Sounding both serious and mysteriously inviting, she delivers an informed discussion of the core principles of lasting behavioral change. The introductory information on brain mechanisms, which is both lucid and memorable, is brought back into focus repeatedly as the authors discuss strategies for dealing with health challenges like overeating, excessive stress, low energy, mood problems, cardiovascular health, and age-related illnesses. The authors’ kind and gentle approach reassures us that resistance to change is human but easy to overcome if we respect the way our neurological circuitry handles change, stress, pleasure, success, and failure.
