Author Description

Always adapting and trying to protect you, the brain is in a constant state of change, with an incredible ability to heal and rewire itself -- though it doesn't always get things right. In How to Make Your Brain Your Best Friend, Rachel Barr shares her personal journey through loss and uncertainty, and how neuroscience sparked her belief in the brain's power to change. Drawing on the science of neuroplasticity, she shows that it's never too late to build new habits, learn new skills, and shift your thinking. Whether you're curious about how your brain works or just need a comforting, evidence-based guide to care for your mind, this book offers insight, warmth, and practical tools to help your brain take better care of you.
