From Fight or Flight to Relax and Release
Do
you ever feel like you’re not in control of your fears, anger,
or desires—or even as though you’ve been “hijacked” by
strong emotions? Do old habits of protecting yourself from
painful feelings sabotage your relationships, make you feel
trapped, or hold you back from reaching your full potential?
Bold new advances in psychology
have determined that our one hundred billion brain cells (or neurons)
organize themselves into neural paths that produce our every thought,
emotion, word, and action. Based on this research, Neural Path
Therapy provides a series of easy-to-understand explanations
and entertaining exercises to help you quite literally change your
brain’s reaction
to fear, anger, pain, and desire.
In this simple and down-to-earth book, you’ll learn to:
-
Identify and change those neural paths that often control your negative
behavior, while strengthening useful or pleasurable ones
-
Discover
and unleash the power of the “relax-and-release
response”
-
Build the “mental muscle” needed
to take control of your own moods, thoughts, and emotions
-
Become
more compassionate and aware,
with increased mental focus
Best of all, once you learn the
tools, tricks, and techniques of NPT (pronounced “nipped”), you’ll be able to nip “unfriendly” neural
paths in the bud—anywhere, anytime, and in any situation.
