NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Â The New York Timesâ‚¬â€œbestselling author of The Brain That Changes Itself presents astounding advances in the treatment of brain injury and illness. Now in an updated and expanded paperback edition.

Winner of the 2015 Gold Nautilus Award in Science & CosmologyÂ

In his groundbreaking work The Brain That Changes Itself, Norman Doidge introduced readers to neuroplasticityâ‚¬"the brainâ‚¬s ability to change its own structure and function in response to activity and mental experience. Now his revolutionary new book shows how the amazing process of neuroplastic healing really works. The Brainâ‚¬s Way of Healing describes natural, noninvasive avenues into the brain provided by the energy around usâ‚¬"in light, sound, vibration, and movementâ‚¬"that can awaken the brainâ‚¬s own healing capacities without producing unpleasant side effects. Doidge explores cases where patients alleviated chronic pain; recovered from debilitating strokes, brain injuries, and learning disorders; overcame attention deficit and learning disorders; and found relief from symptoms of autism, multiple sclerosis, Parkinsonâ‚¬s disease, and cerebral palsy. And we learn how to vastly reduce the risk of dementia, with simple approaches anyone can use.
Â
For centuries it was believed that the brainâ‚¬s complexity prevented recovery from damage or disease. The Brainâ‚¬s Way of Healing shows that this very sophistication is the source of a unique kind of healing. As he did so lucidly in The Brain That Changes Itself, Doidge uses stories to present cutting-edge science with practical real-world applications, and principles that everyone can apply to improve their brainâ‚¬s performance and health.
