Book Overview
Fight back against a modern culture that is rewiring our brains and damaging our health with this practical, doctor-approved plan for healing that includes a ten-day boot camp and forty delicious recipes.
Contemporary life provides us with infinite opportunities, along with endless temptations. We can eat whatever we want, whenever we want. We can immerse ourselves in the vast, enticing world of digital media. We can buy goods and services for rapid delivery with our fingertips or voice commands. But living in this 24/7 hyper-reality poses serious risks to our physical and mental states, our connections to others, and even to the world at large.
Brain Wash builds from a simple premise: Our brains are being gravely manipulated, resulting in behaviors that leave us more lonely, anxious, depressed, distrustful, illness-prone, and overweight than ever before.
Based on the latest science, the book identifies the mental hijacking that undermines each and every one of us, and presents the tools necessary to think more clearly, make better decisions, strengthen bonds with others, and develop healthier habits. Featuring a 10-day bootcamp program, including a meal plan and 40 delicious original recipes, Brain Wash is the key to cultivating a more purposeful and fulfilling life.

Legitimately fantastic read
Published by Boogers , 9 days ago
This book has easy to read science explaining our society's problem with depression and disconnectedness. Normally I am critical of those who hate on internet/phone access (because it usually lacks nuance), but the way this book is written is very factual, cut and dry. There is a lot of nuance, and a lot of truth, to the critiques within this book. If you are struggling with depression and feeling stuck in loops of unhealthy choices, I highly recommend giving this a read. There is information as well as action plans and also recipes (I haven't made anything yet lol) to help us slow the heck down and get connected to OURSELF again. It was really nice reading about how our social norms are really dragging our health down, but also that there WERE ways we can combat those pressures; it might not all be our fault, but we definitely have the power to make some really good change for ourselves.
