Bøger af Dr. Rachel Barr

In today's increasingly anxious age, it's easy to be wooed by multi-step methods that promise us ultimate fulfilment. But what if society's obsession with self-optimization actually stands at odds with the way we are wired?For neuroscientist Dr. Rachel Barr understanding mental health is not merely a professional endeavor but one that is immensely personal. Having witnessed her own mother struggling with her mental health, Rachel took to social media to share the simple steps that we can all take to better our own mental wellbeing.In stark contrast to the relentless effort and productivity of the self-optimization movement, Rachel offers a refreshing alternative: by simply aligning with our brain's natural rhythms - from its need for sleep to rewiring its tendency towards negativity bias - we can all experience more peace in our day-to-day lives.Offering a scientifically backed guide to harnessing what should come naturally (were it not for the success-driven society surrounding us), Rachel invites you to discover that true wellness might be less about pushing ourselves harder, and more about tuning into our own inherent patterns and becoming better friends with our brains.
