Synopsis

Most of us don't realize we have a surprising amount of control over our own thoughts and behaviors. While unconscious feelings and reactions from our past can unintentionally influence our behaviors negatively, we also have a great capacity to call upon the parts of our brain responsible for intentional choices in order to end destructive cycles. The ReWired Brain shows readers how to reframe their negative experiences, overcome their fears, experience emotional and spiritual healing, and ultimately rewire their brains, empowering them to be free and to live fearlessly.

From the Back Cover

What if unleashing the power of your mind could help you live your best life?

"The creative and brilliantly wired mind of scientist and author Dr. Ski Chilton again boldly explores human behavior potential in his insightful latest book, The ReWired Brain--a provocative mental journey."--Charles (Cash) McCall, MD, professor of translational science and molecular medicine, Wake Forest University School of Medicine

"Change--honest, God-honoring change--is difficult! It seems at times the Christian community oscillates between two extremes: religious denial or the insanity of just trying harder to be better. The ReWired Brain instead gives hope and practical insights into how we can get 'unstuck' in life. Having spent over thirty years counseling, I would strongly recommend this creative contribution to the battle for wholeness and holiness."--Dr. Ted Roberts, bestselling author, pastor, and certified sexual addiction counselor
