Publisher Description
A prescriptive guide to restoring cognitive calm, based on Amen Clinics chief psychiatrist Dr. Joseph Annibali’s three decades of treating patients who suffer from overloaded, overstimulated brains.
Dr. Joseph Annibali has treated thousands of people with overloaded, overstimulated brains. Some people describe their brain as being “in chaos”; others feel that their brain is “on fire.” But whether they are ultimately diagnosed with anxiety, disabling OCD, depression, bipolar disorder, or even substance abuse, the underlying problem is a Too-Busy Brain, a great irritant that interferes with attention, concentration, focus, mood, and often much more. It may even be a sign of undetected damage to either the brain or the body itself. But through practical strategies, understandable explanations, and prescriptive mind-management techniques, Dr. Annibali will help readers finally reclaim their brains and get back in control of their lives.

“This plainspoken audio describes how to improve the overactivity in our brains, which wastes mental energy and makes it harder to focus and be productive. The author/narrator, a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, writes with remarkable lucidity. His confident, relaxed pacing and clear baritone voice make listeners curious about this information and hopeful about their symptoms. Like a lot of neuroscientists who study mental functioning, he anchors his descriptions of typical brain malfunctions to specific locations in the brain. The mechanical clarity of these explanations helps listeners focus on concrete causes and solutions instead of feeling helpless or blaming themselves. And though the solutions offered here still require initiative and effort, his vivid writing and healing vocal tone will help listeners want to put these strategies into action.”
