Rewire the brain processes that cause obsessions and compulsions, and take back your life. This book offers a groundbreaking approach to understanding and managing obsessive thoughts, using cutting-edge neuroscience and evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). By exploring how neurological functions in your brain lead to obsessions, compulsions, and anxiety, you'll gain the tools to short-circuit these responses and get your symptoms under control. You'll find practical coping strategies to help manage your worst symptoms, including relaxation, exercise, healthy sleep habits, cognitive restructuring, cognitive defusion, distraction, and mindfulness. The brain is powerful, and by working to change the way you respond to obsessive thoughts, you'll become more resilient. With this book, you'll be equipped to rewire the brain processes that lie at the root of your obsessive thoughts and start making positive changes today.
