Conquer Your Bad Habits

Secrets to Long-Lasting Change

About this book

Habits, whether good or bad, run our lives. What if there's a simple, practical way to get rid of the bad ones and replace them with healthy ones?

If you find yourself habitually overeating, overspending, procrastinating, getting distracted, interrupting, people-pleasing, wasting time, automatically saying no, or drinking too much alcohol, neuropsychiatrist and best-selling author Daniel Amen, MD, has encouraging news for you: Your brain does what you train it to do. So even if you've trained your brain to normalize unhealthy behavior, you can also train it to turn bad habits into good ones in order to experience more joy and contentment.

In Conquer Your Bad Habits, Dr. Amen combines approachable neuroscience and years of clinical research as he reveals:

  • the six most important brain systems that run your life
  • the five basic steps to conquering your unhealthy habits and setting new goals
  • how to overcome ten common bad habits
  • what to do when bad habits become addictions

There's no better time than now to let Dr. Amen show you how to retrain your brain and eliminate your negative behaviors once and for all—so you can live a happier, healthier life.
