Evolve Your Brain: The Science of Changing Your Mind by Joe Dispenza

hopeful informative slow-paced

3.5

As a cancer survivor, I resent the idea that my thoughts and psyche may have caused my disease. I also find it a bit offensive to hear that my mind may be the cause of my related physical pain and suffering. I believe that this is a dangerous way of thinking that could cause some to forgo conventional medicine. While the author  lucky was fortunate in his health outcomes and I’m happy for him, I’m not sure that this is a practice for most.  Additionally, I didn’t feel like he gave really specific and great methods for actually doing mental rehearsal and “changing your mind.” Parts of the book, especially those about neurplasticity,  were intriguing.   The story about the friend John visiting his huge family really resonated with me. Many other sections were very slow.
