Description: Rewire by Richard O'Connor "The bestselling author of "Undoing Depression "offers a brain-based guide to permanently ending bad habits"-- FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The bestselling author of Undoing Depression offers a brain-based guide to permanently ending bad habits Richard OConnors bestselling book Undoing Depression has become a touchstone in the field, helping thousands of therapists and patients overcome depressive patterns. In Rewire, OConnor expands those ideas, showing how we actually have two brains—a conscious deliberate self and an automatic self that makes most of our decisions—and how we can train the latter to ignore distractions, withstand temptations, and interrupt reflexive, self-sabotaging responses. Rewire gives readers a road–map to overcoming the most common self-destructive habits, including procrastination, excessive worrying, internet addiction, overeating, risk-taking, and self-medication, among others. By learning valuable skills and habits—including mindfulness, self-control, confronting fear, and freeing yourself from mindless guilt—we can open ourselves to vastly more successful, productive, and happy lives. Author Biography RICHARD OCONNOR, PHD, is a practicing psychotherapist with offices in New York and Connecticut, where he currently lives.
