Publisher's summary
Change Your Brain, Change Your Life (Before 25) is based on Dr. Jesse Payne's and Daniel Amen's work together with young people and parents and educators who work with young people. It is an owner's manual specifically written for the developing brain, packed with interesting information, relatable stories and easy-to-follow brain prescriptions and enhancement strategies. Its step-by-step instructions are tailored to optimize brain power while minimizing brain interference. The goal is to show listeners how to unlock the miraculous potential of the developing brain and rewire the young mind for a lifetime of real world success. Change Your Brain, Change Your Life (Before 25) will empower young listeners and the parents, educators, coaches and professionals who work with young people.
A young brain is more than an adult brain with a few less miles on it. Its unique structure and chemical composition is constantly changing, growing and reshaping itself until around the age of 25. In fact, Jesse's work has shown people under the age of 25 can transform their brains and change their lives in as little as two weeks' time.
And let's face it. The teen years are grueling. Twenty-somethings today are struggling more than ever. Parents' concerns and frustrations are heightened. Times are especially tough for this age group. Just look at the press:
- Generation Screwed: With unemployment, the economy and a myriad of social issues, many young people graduating from high school and college today feel like Generation Screwed. This audiobook shows them how they can use their brain's superpowers to rise above these challenges and succeed in the real world.
- Technology: As Digital Natives, this generation is more plugged in and exposed than any in history. I'll show young people how to stay wired in without getting wired up and provide them the skills to understand and bridge the gap that often alienates them from the older generation most often responsible for their success in the real world.
- ADD, Depression, Anxiety: Hundreds of thousands of kids are hit with what I call the "Young Person's Trifecta": ADD, Depression, and Anxiety. This program tackles these neuro-obstacles and offers frustrated families and young people hope and solutions for a thriving, productive and happy life.

We want our children to succeed, to be their best, and to do their best, but what if they are not on board? A few years ago, Ned Johnson and Bill Stixrud started noticing the same problem from different angles: even high-performing kids were coming to them acutely stressed and lacking any real motivation. Many complained that they had no real control over their lives.

The emotional trauma we suffer as children not only shapes our emotional lives as adults but also affects our physical health and overall well-being. Scientists now know on a biochemical level exactly how parents' chronic fights, divorce, death in the family, being bullied or hazed, and growing up with a hypercritical, alcoholic, or mentally ill parent can leave permanent, physical "fingerprints" on our brains.

Story
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.

Story
The emotional trauma we suffer as children not only shapes our emotional lives as adults but also affects our physical health and overall well-being. Scientists now know on a biochemical level exactly how parents' chronic fights, divorce, death in the family, being bullied or hazed, and growing up with a hypercritical, alcoholic, or mentally ill parent can leave permanent, physical "fingerprints" on our brains.

It is the tenth anniversary since the first publication of Daniel Goleman's groundbreaking bestseller, Emotional Intelligence, which maps the territory where IQ meets EQ, where we apply what we know to how we live. Spending over a year on the New York Times bestseller list, Emotional Intelligence provided the evidence for what many successful people already knew: being smart isn't just a matter of mastering facts; it's a matter of mastering your own emotions and understanding the emotions of the people around you.

It's not a surprise that our fast-paced, overly analytical culture is pushing people - especially women - to spend countless hours thinking about negative ideas, feelings, and experiences. Renowned psychologist Dr. Susan Nolen-Hoeksema calls this "overthinking". Her groundbreaking research shows that an increasing number of women - more than half of those in her extensive study - are doing it too much and too often, hindering their ability to lead a satisfying life.

The Brave Athlete solves the 13 most common mental conundrums athletes face in their everyday training and in races. You don't have one brain - you have three; your ancient Chimp brain that keeps you alive, your modern Professor brain that navigates the civilized world, and your Computer brain that accesses your memories and runs your habits (good and bad). They fight for control all the time and that's when bad things happen. What if you could stop the thoughts and feelings you don't want? You can.

Story
A veteran clinical psychologist exposes why doctors, teachers, and parents incorrectly diagnose healthy American children with serious psychiatric conditions. In recent years there has been an alarming rise in the number of American children and youth assigned a mental health diagnosis. Current data from the Centers for Disease Control reveal a 41 percent increase in rates of ADHD diagnoses over the past decade and a forty-fold spike in bipolar disorder diagnoses. Similarly, diagnoses of autism spectrum disorder has increased by 78 percent since 2002.

Every parent must read!
For parents that are battling with children with behavior issues, it would be beneficial to read or listen. Although, directed toward youths, it is very insightful on the way the brain works and how to understand youths' behavior. It is not their fault they behave that way. And, understanding particularly how your child, teenager or young adult's brain works, will help lighten up some of the stress and frustration. Plus, provide an action plan to address it in a holistic manner. But, I recommend also the teenager and young adult to read this to understand and learn about themselves, becoming more conscious of their behaviors and allowing there physiology to develop to the best of their ability.
