This book is a much-requested follow-up to Brain over Binge (2011, 2022), in which the author shared how she used a basic understanding of neuroscientific principles to overcome bulimia. In this sequel and companion volume, with the help of fellow specialists and authors Amy Johnson, PhD, Katherine Thomson, PhD, and others, Kathryn Hansen lays out those same principles—and many more—in a self-help format that encourages and enables binge eaters to recover efficiently and effectively.

This audiobook is a story of recovery and self-discovery with ups and downs, struggles, and successes. The journey starts with an introduction that sets the context for a series of chapters describing the physical and emotional aspects of the recovery.

You've quit before. Maybe more than once. This time, the part of your brain that actually runs the habit gets addressed—while you sleep. Willpower was never the missing piece. The urge to smoke doesn't live in the part of your mind that reads self-help books and makes resolutions—it lives deeper, in automatic circuitry built by years of repetition, which is exactly why reasoning your way out of it keeps not working, no matter how badly you want it to.

The 7 Sacred Meditations of the Vagus Nerve activate ...

Two habits. One root cause. One system to end them both — using the hours you already spend asleep. You've probably tried to quit smoking, or cut back on drinking, or both, using the same tool every time: willpower. And it probably worked, for a while, until stress or just an ordinary Friday quietly pulled you back. That's not a character flaw. The part of your brain that makes resolutions and the part that reaches for a cigarette or pours a third drink are not the same part, and no amount of wanting it badly enough closes that gap.

Stop Managing Defiance. Start Navigating Autonomy. What if the "defiance" you’re fighting isn't a choice, but a biological mandate for safety? For parents and professionals supporting PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) individuals, traditional behavioral strategies don't just fail—they often backfire, leading to "Hull Breaches," burnout, and fractured relationships. In Pilot’s Drive for Autonomy, Dr. Jennifer Huffman—a clinical neuropsychologist with twenty-five years of experience and a PDAer herself—reveals why the "Imperative Hack" of traditional parenting triggers a ...

If you've tried everything and you're still burning out, you have the wrong manual. Standard burnout advice — rest, boundaries, self-care — assumes a brain with steady energy and reliable executive function. ADHD brains have neither. Which is why the advice keeps failing you. This book starts somewhere else. It treats ADHD burnout as what it actually is: a high-cost system that broke from running too long without enough maintenance. And it gives you protocols built for the brain you actually have. You'll learn: A 5-minute triage you can do in bed when you're already crashing How to read...

What happens when the long-term effects of a brain injury meet the realities of aging? For many survivors of traumatic brain injury, concussion, mild TBI, repeated head impacts, or acquired brain injury, the most difficult questions may not appear until years later. A memory lapse becomes more noticeable. Fatigue is harder to manage. Word-finding problems, slower thinking, balance concerns, sensory overload, or emotional changes begin to affect daily life in new ways. Is this normal aging, a long-standing brain injury effect, or a sign that something new deserves medical attention? Aging ...
