DR. DAVID SMITH / Unchain Your Brain
Dr. David Smith, the founder of the Haight Ashbury Free Medical Clinic, asks, along with his co-author Dr. Daniel Amen, “Are you chained to your addiction to smoking? Drinking? Sugar? Drugs? Good? Prescription painkillers? Caffeine? Internet porn? Gambling? Sex?” – and answers everyone who says “Yes”: with tools to optimize one’s brain.
Smith says brain dysfunction is the number-one reason why people fall victim to addiction, why they can’t break the chains of addiction, and why they relapse. He and Amen offer strategies to find lasting motivation to changes, ways to lock up the craving monster, tips for eating right, thinking right, and healing from an addiction, and ways to prevent relapse (including brain science). They offer 7 steps parents can take now to help prevent addictions for their children; 10 daily behaviors that will enhance brain function; 15 strategies for dealing with the people who try to sabotage recovery; 5 natural supplements that can soothe the brain and reduce craving; 4 areas of life one needs to address to prevent relapse; and 1 decision that will change one’s life.
Join the discussion about rediscovering the pleasure of developing satisfying relationships with family and friends, regaining health, finding greater energy, and exploring the amazing world in which we live.
As if founding the Haight Ashbury Free Medical Clinic wasn’t
enough, Dr. Smith is a Fellow and Past President of the American Society for
