Book Description
Self Sustain Your Brain. Grow A Positive Mind. A positive mind is absolutely your most important comprehensive health resource. Your brain has an inherent optimism bias. Consider how much negativity it takes to undermine that bias and the effect of changing our basic nature so that we are more negative than positive. Do you think this could affect the health of your memory? Your brain runs most efficiently on positivity. Our greatest waste of energy is the poor use we make of psychic energy. The greatest energy crisis is the non-use and misuse of the energy of the brain. Self sustain your brain. It is a vast resource that is continuing to evolve. How we cooperate with the evolution of our brain determines our health on a primal level. If negativity is in the way of that evolution by narrowing the options and choices of the brain and rigidifying, the lean toward disease is far greater. If it is the job of your brain to "get the larger picture" as you grow older, if you dig in and become rigid and narrow, why wouldn't the loss of wasted energy express itself in the loss of the capacity for memory? Half of your brain, the entire right hemisphere, is for the purpose of novelty, of integrating and organizing so that new information can be lateralized, passed over to the left hemisphere. You will learn how to live in an UpSpiral that actually raises the level of your moods, your emotional states, and your everyday experience of "feeling good." This UpSpiral increases your openness to new information, to novelty. As you increase in growing your positive mind, it will move in the direction of increasing the meaning in your life. At the core of positivity is the way we make meaning, called our meaning-making system. New developmental stages of meaning-making emerge throughout our entire life span. Growing a positive mind greatly enhances the move into and through these stages of meaning-making. When that growth is thwarted, aliveness is dulled and negativity takes its toll on health. Our brains are meant to evolve into higher and higher stages of more complex reasoning. This book is about the growth that enhances those developmental stages of meaning-making. A positive mind also enhances the ability to navigate the transitions that exist between these stages. This is not just theory, it is not simply insight, but the "how to" in language anyone can understand. "Growing The Positive Mind" is a guide to becoming emotionally more agile and flexible. It helps you recover from the learned non-use of positive emotion which affects everyone. We learn not to be positive by the small and large traumas of our lives. It is something like a stroke where we discover that what we thought was not workable is still there ready to spring to life. That is the potential for higher and higher levels of positive emotion that you learn in Dr. Larkin's Emotional Gym. Growing positive emotional muscle is actually something you can learn. and learning helps you manage your moods, your states of mind, and puts the control of positive emotion back into the hands of the reader rather than in the events of life outside the person. You can feel positive emotions simply because you decide you can. You don't have to have a reason. You can grow positive emotional muscle that is at your control, and this book tells you how. Each chapter is a strategy that is a "how to" of an overall process of change, that creates both a more positive mind but also creates the potential for deeper and more significant meaning-making in life. Your brain can always grow new neurons, your brain is always evolving and a positive mind insures the healthiest and easiest use of the energy of the brain to grow and evolve. Learn how from a book grounded in science and translated so simply that anyone can understand it. The research that grounds the book is contained in the rich bibliography.

Book Description
From the renowned psychologist who introduced the world to “growth mindset” comes this updated edition of the million-copy bestseller—featuring transformative insights into redefining success, building lifelong resilience, and supercharging self-improvement. “Through clever research studies and engaging writing, Dweck illuminates how our beliefs about our capabilities exert tremendous influence on how we learn and which paths we take in life.”—Bill Gates, GatesNotes “It’s not always the people who start out the smartest who end up the smartest.” After decades of research, world-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol S. Dweck, Ph.D., discovered a simple but groundbreaking idea: the power of mindset. In this brilliant book, she shows how success in school, work, sports, the arts, and almost every area of human endeavor can be dramatically influenced by how we think about our talents and abilities. People with a fixed mindset—those who believe that abilities are fixed—are less likely to flourish than those with a growth mindset—those who believe that abilities can be developed. Mindset reveals how great parents, teachers, managers, and athletes can put this idea to use to foster outstanding accomplishment. In this edition, Dweck offers new insights into her now famous and broadly embraced concept. She introduces a phenomenon she calls false growth mindset and guides people toward adopting a deeper, truer growth mindset. She also expands the mindset concept beyond the individual, applying it to the cultures of groups and organizations. With the right mindset, you can motivate those you lead, teach, and love—to transform their lives and your own.

Book Description
From the millions-strong audiences of Oprah and The Secret to the mass-media ministries of evangelical figures like Joel Osteen and T. D. Jakes, to the motivational bestsellers and New Age seminars to the twelve-step programs and support groups of the recovery movement and to the rise of positive psychology and stress-reduction therapies, this idea--to think positively--is metaphysics morphed into mass belief. This is the biography of that belief. No one has yet written a serious and broad-ranging treatment and history of the positive-thinking movement. Until now. For all its influence across popular culture, religion, politics, and medicine, this psycho-spiritual movement remains a maligned and misunderstood force in modern life. Its roots are unseen and its long-range impact is unacknowledged. It is often considered a cotton-candy theology for New Agers and self-help junkies. In response, One Simple Idea corrects several historical misconceptions about the positive-thinking movement and introduces us to a number of colorful and dramatic personalities, including Napoleon Hill and Norman Vincent Peale, whose books and influence have touched the lives of tens of millions across the world.

Book Description
The tenth-anniversary edition of the book that changed lives in profound ways, now with a new foreword and afterword. In 2006, a groundbreaking feature-length film revealed the great mystery of the universe—The Secret—and, later that year, Rhonda Byrne followed with a book that became a worldwide bestseller. Fragments of a Great Secret have been found in the oral traditions, in literature, in religions and philosophies throughout the centuries. For the first time, all the pieces of The Secret come together in an incredible revelation that will be life-transforming for all who experience it. In this book, you’ll learn how to use The Secret in every aspect of your life—money, health, relationships, happiness, and in every interaction you have in the world. You’ll begin to understand the hidden, untapped power that’s within you, and this revelation can bring joy to every aspect of your life. The Secret contains wisdom from modern-day teachers—men and women who have used it to achieve health, wealth, and happiness. By applying the knowledge of The Secret, they bring to light compelling stories of eradicating disease, acquiring massive wealth, overcoming obstacles, and achieving what many would regard as impossible.
