Your Survival Instinct Is Killing You: Retrain Your Brain to Conquer Fear and Build Resilience
Autor Marc Schoen Kristin Lobergen Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 mar 2014 – vârsta de la 18 ani
“Outstanding . . . read this book.” —David Logan, PhD, New York Times bestselling author of Tribal Leadership
To ensure our survival, the human brain evolved to react to immediate physical danger. In today’s world we are more comfortable than ever, yet we still find ourselves at the mercy of this ancient fear response. Though mild discomforts such as getting stuck in traffic or dealing with conflict are not real threats to our survival, they trigger the brain’s fight-or-flight fear reaction, causing addictions, overeating, insomnia, phobias, and rapid aging. Dr. Marc Schoen offers eye-opening insights and practical strategies for improving every aspect of our lives.

Recenzii
“This book is outstanding . . . Dr. Schoen is unconventional, and so is this book. Ancient wisdom with new findings in brain research lead to a startling conclusion: What has allowed our species to survive is driving us crazy. There is something you can do about it—read this book, and follow its advice. Reading this book is like having a conversation with Dr. Schoen and that can change your life.”
—David Logan, Ph.D., New York Times #1 bestselling coauthor of Tribal Leadership and The Three Laws of Performance; professor, USC (University of Southern California), Marshall School of Business
“Dr. Marc Schoen knows what it takes to be resilient and healthy in these modern times. It is not, as some would have you believe, to replace feelings of pain and discomfort with feelings of safety and comfort, but rather to allow these seemingly incompatible feelings to sit side by side to inform and shape one another. Grounded in solid theory and evidence as well as engaging stories, including his own, this book is a must-read for anyone facing mysterious physical ailments.”
—Barbara Fredrickson, Ph.D., author of Positivity and Love 2.0
“I know so well how easy it is to fall into the trap of using food, addictions, or other forms of avoidance as protection from my fears of being uncomfortable. Reading Dr. Schoen’s book was challenging. It felt so close to home—almost too close and personal in fact. Yet as I came to understand the message of this book, it became so much more obvious to me. This book is about the unavoidable—being uncomfortable. Dr. Schoen’s book offers a gift: how to successfully manage your discomfort and fears, and equally as important, how to use the discomfort in your life as a vehicle for empowerment.”
—Carnie Wilson, celebrity, singer, TV host, and author of Gut Feelings, I’m Still Hungry and To Serve with Love
“Dr. Schoen puts his attention to the discomfort, disappointment, worry, and impatience that influence the quality of our lives profoundly but about which science and medicine are so often silent. He does a brilliant job of connecting brain research and our everyday coping strategies. Readers will find new ways of understanding and mobilizing the mind-body connection for stress management.”
—Sara Latz, J.D., M.D., clinical professor of medicine, UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior
“The essence of success is age old . . . Work Hard, Work Smart, and Manage Your Fear. Dr. Schoen has unlocked the essence of fear and discomfort management. This is a must-read for any human that has ever started or thought of starting their own business. A fast-paced impact treatise for everyone who wants to win!”
