How God Changes Your Brain: Breakthrough Findings by a Leading Neuroscientist

Mark Robert Waldman therapist and co author of How God Changes Your Brain: Breakthrough Findings by a Leading Neuroscientist in which they use their state-of-the art brain-scan technology and research surveys to document how different forms of spiritual practice, secular meditation, intensive prayer, and positive affirmations change the function and structure of the brain. They show how these changes improve memory, cognition, and compassion while simultaneously suppressing activity in those parts of the brain that generate stress, anxiety, depression, and anger. Their book features a dozen simple exercises that anyone can do to achieve these neurological and psychological benefits, and it only takes a few minutes a day focusing on your innermost values and goals.
