Is it possible to heal by thought alone - without drugs or surgery? The truth is that it happens more often than you might expect. In You Are the Placebo, Dr. Joe Dispenza shares numerous documented cases of those who reversed cancer, heart disease, depression, crippling arthritis, and even the tremors of Parkinson’s disease by believing in a placebo. Similarly, Dr. Joe tells of how others have gotten sick and even died the victims of a hex or voodoo curse - or after being misdiagnosed with a fatal illness.

For half a century, we have been trained to believe that our right brain hemisphere is our emotional brain, while our left brain houses our rational thinking. Now neuroscience shows that it's not that simple: In fact, our emotional limbic tissue is evenly divided between our two hemispheres. Consequently, each hemisphere has both an emotional brain and a thinking brain. In this groundbreaking new book, Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor presents these four distinct modules of cells as four characters that make up who we are.

Publisher's Summary
Joe Dispenza, DC, has spent decades studying the human mind - how it works, how it stores information, and why it perpetuates the same behavioral patterns over and over. In the acclaimed film What the Bleep Do We Know!?, he began to explain how the brain evolves - by learning new skills, developing the ability to concentrate in the midst of chaos, and even healing the body and the psyche. Evolve Your Brain presents this information in depth, while helping you take control of your mind, explaining how thoughts can create chemical reactions that keep you addicted to patterns and feelings - including ones that make you unhappy. And when you know how these bad habits are created, it's possible to not only break these patterns, but also reprogram and evolve your brain, so that new, positive, and beneficial habits can take over.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Too long for the message
The amount of real science and hard evidence is hard to separate from his personal stories and one-off examples. The summary of the science was excessive and repetitive.
No instruction's about how to change self, just some assumptions. Not worth the credit.
If you want to learn how to change yourself the best of these books I have ever read is 'Your Brain at Work' by David Rock.

Great message, long book
There is an excellent message to this book and the author goes in to explicit detail regarding how the brain works and functions. Many may find it slow and hard work to get through a couple chapters but I assure you it is well worth the money. You will be better for having read this book and be armed with some great knowledge

Mostly basic biology and "Practice makes perfect"
I'm on chapter 9 of what appears to be the same free basic ideas being paraphrased paragraph after paragraph.
If you have a high School level understanding of the brain, the first 9 chapters can be skipped.
When does this start book give me something I can use?
I get it. I'm a creature of habit. How do I use that knowledge to my advantage?
Get to the point, please. -- the point is apparently, "Practice Makes Perfect".

Edit, edit, edit.
The book explores some very interesting and inspiring aspects of mind, brain and neuroplasticity. It's based on newest research on the field. Unfortunately, the author seems to draw a bunch of far reaching conclusions that aren't quite within the laws of cause and effect, and it is often hard to decipher whether what is written is based on research or author's own pseudo-religious beliefs.
My biggest peeve, though, is the structure and writing of the book. The author constantly repeats himself and the topics come in somewhat haphazard fashion. Language used is often hard and stuffed with technical words and lacks punctuality. This is exacerbated by the placid reader who lacks good emphasis and tonality. I found myself zoning of constantly because of these short comings. In short, the book needs a good editor to make it in to an enjoyable listen.

This audiobook was both informative and enlightening in regards to concepts that I was unaware of. It also confirmed elements in which I have thought. It is clear that the information could not have been done in less time. I look forward to listening multiple times to absorb and to implement many of the suggestions and concepts presented. Excellent, excellent material.

loved the content but not the narrator
I much preferred the narrator of Dr Joe's two later books. Maybe I would have enjoyed it more if I had listened to this one first. The content was great - it is more of the science behind changing your thought patterns and how the brain works. Of his three books, this was my least favorite, although I still think it has some incredible information in it and is definitely worth the investment.

A dangerous brew of pseudoscience.
This is the most dangerous type of "course," as it has some legitimate science mixed in with a gigantic amount of spiritualist pseudoscientific nonsense of the "if you just think differently and positively enough, you can cure any disease" variety. This should be nowhere near anything labeled educational. I'll seek a refund.

Life Changing
Would you consider the audio edition of Evolve Your Brain to be better than the print version?
Personally due to my learning & life style I prefer audio books as you can exercise, be on the bus or doing housework and "read a book" I also like to make notes and refer back to them on occasion.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Evolve Your Brain?
Is that I have seen direct results within a very short space of time. Firstly I came the author on You Tube - I then went on holiday and then after shopping one day thoughts I really need a good book, then next thing I was walking past a book shop and the very 1st book I saw Mind Power of the 21st Century and it says in there "nothing happens by coincidence"
Have you listened to any of Sean Runnette’s other performances? How does this one compare?
no
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Changing your mind
Any additional comments?
I have really benefited from this book and I love the neuroscience part and the best part for me was having the bonus material to refer to and really understanding what is going on from a biological point of view.

The Theory Behind "The Secret"
I don't want to downplay this book by giving this review a potentially fluffy title, but I've been curious about the idea of mind over matter for some time now. I've created change in my own life through focused thinking but wanted to take things a stage further.
By learning about the neuroscience behind thought and hearing of real life examples, I now have renewed enthusiasm to see where this takes me. I've just finished this audio book and intend to listen to it all over again, to make sure I haven't missed anything during my 4 hour daily commutes to London and back.
There's just one chapter that I struggled with, that goes into the science behind each part of the brain, bit the rest of this book kept me engaged. I'm looking forward to the second time around, which I think I'll start straight away.

Neuroscience and magic
There are been plenty of great books that take a proven scientific approach to self improvement. This is not one of them. A confusing mismash of basic neuroscience, psychology and magical thinking. The basic premise that self reflection and a concerted effort to change automatic responses can help improve us is sound, but the author then claims a whole host of other super powers ranging from curing cancer to bestowing physic powers. The book covers some genuinely useful research on neuroscience and human behaviour, but it's often warped so badly to match the authors preconceived ideas, it's hard to know what you can trust. Even well understood theories such as Evolution are painfully misrepresented, and the chapter on Quantum physics is predictably fantastical. Aside from the content, one of the worst aspects is how painfully slow the book is. It is scattered with unnecessary repetition, meaningless passages and long and unhelpful analogies. Save yourself your money, and you time and pick up Peak, Habit, Grit, Deep Work, or any of the other quality titles that can back up their claims.

Densely scientific language, short on practicality
This is a fascinating book, looking at how we can change our brain from a neurological and evolutionary perspective. There’s a lot of explanation of neurological processes, but at the end there’s little clear structure on how to change. A bit less of the textbook stuff and more on the practicality would have made this a book to return to. As it is, I don’t think I’ll ever read it again.

Extremely repetitive
The author makes a compelling argument for thinking in the present, and aligning thoughts with intentions and actions. The book also provides good insights into the effects of stress on the brain. My main criticism of the book is that it’s extremely repetitive, it could easily have been half the length and still addressed all the content. Ironically, the repetition made it difficult to concentrate on the content, which is the key outcome he’s promoting. Hours and hours are spent convincing the reader to practice mindfulness, but there’s almost no practical content on how to do this. I also struggled with a few bizarre suggestions that were not well referenced (I.e that you can stop your heart or influence a coin toss with thought). Finally, I found his views on ADHD offensive and inconsistent with modern medical science

An excellent read for those wanting to change.
This audio book goes into great detail on how the human brain functions and why it works the way it does. This book is a major key for anyone wanting to completely transform their being and become a new person.

ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ
This book is amazing. It covers all aspects of psychology in the first half of the book and then goes into how to make change in our lives in a way that is lasting. I have read his books before, but this one is by far the best. Great narrator also.

Great theory but lacks actual life solutions.
Very in depth, excellent details about how the mind works, so it was very interesting. But I was really hoping for more instructions on how to apply it to my life.

Extremely Insightful and interesting
Provides a good understanding of how the brain works and opens up a whole new set of options by enabling/introducing an evolutionary thinking pattern that helps utilize that understanding.

Amazing!
Highly recommend this along with Dr Dispenza’s follow up “Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself”. These books have changed my life!
