Publisher's summary

A manual for relating to the brain in a revolutionary new way, Super Brain explains how to use your brain as a gateway for achieving health, happiness, and spiritual growth. The authors are two pioneers: best-selling author and physician Deepak Chopra and Harvard Medical School professor Rudolph E. Tanzi, one of the world's foremost experts on the causes of Alzheimer’s. They have merged their wisdom and expertise for a bold new understanding of the “three-pound universe” and its untapped potential.

In contrast to the “baseline brain” that fulfills the tasks of everyday life, Chopra and Tanzi propose that, through a person’s increased self-awareness and conscious intention, the brain can be taught to reach far beyond its present limitations. “We are living in a golden age for brain research, but is this a golden age for your brain?” they ask.

Super Brain explains how it can be, by combining cutting-edge research and spiritual insights, demolishing the five most widespread myths about the brain that limit your potential, and then showing you methods to:

  • Use your brain instead of letting it use you
  • Create the ideal lifestyle for a healthy brain
  • Reduce the risks of aging
  • Promote happiness and well-being through the mind-body connection
  • Access the enlightened brain, the gateway to freedom and bliss
  • Overcome the most common challenges, such as memory loss, depression, anxiety, and obesity

Your brain is capable of incredible healing and constant reshaping. Through a new relationship with your brain you can transform your life. In Super Brain, Chopra and Tanzi guide you on a fascinating journey that envisions a leap in human evolution. The brain is not just the greatest gift that Nature has given us. It’s the gateway to an unlimited future that you can begin to live today.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Manual for the Brain.

If you could sum up Super Brain in three words, what would they be?

Manual for the Brain

What was one of the most memorable moments of Super Brain?

That I am not my brain and I need to take charge of my brain; use it as a tool to help me fulfill the goals I want to reach, for a full and happy life.

What does Shishir Kurup bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He gives the words a texture and emotion for a richer experience. I actually felt like I was connecting to the author.

Any additional comments?

Everyone should read this book to get a better sense of themselves. Learn all about the unconscious brain and how it controls almost everything we do!

life changing

From the moment I have red this book which was about 6 years ago, I felt enlightened and as a result had much deeper understanding of causes of the issues we deal with every day and sometimes for years. I also have audible version available just to listen when ever I want to remember some of the facts Deepack Chopra clearly and basically defined. I think every single person on earth should read this book at least one time. Thank you Deepack Chopra for putting all this together and Amazon for making it available for humanity.

Forgetable for me, but, we're all different.

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I listened to his book a few months ago. Nothing about it sticks in my brain except that there was nothing to it that I had not heard before. Which may be good because I don't recall any glaring errors either. Still hours spent listening to something that was neither memorable nor contributed to my knowledge or well being was not a good use of my time.

That said. If you are a geek and tend to know a lot about spiritual well being, neuroscience, plasticity, integrative medicine, and such, this is not the book for you. If, however,this sounds like something that you might be interested in but don't know where to start, this might be a good intro.

Did Shishir Kurup do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Can't remember

Incomparable, Though Provoking and Insightful

The best explanation for life, religion and spiritualism that I have had the pleasure of hearing and listening to in my 61 years. So much more that I expected when I started listening a week ago.
