Description
The Balanced Brain: The Science of Mental Health by Camilla Nord Discover the intricate, self-regulating process of mental health and how it affects us all. Neuroscientist Camilla Nord explores the latest scientific and technological developments that are revolutionizing our understanding of mental wellbeing. She examines a range of treatments, from therapy and medication to recreational drugs and electrical brain stimulation, to show how they work and why they sometimes don't. In this book, Nord reveals how everyday actions, such as enjoying a piece of chocolate or chatting with a friend, can have a significant impact on our mental health. She shows that, with so many factors at play, there are more possibilities for recovery and resilience than we might think. This book is an invitation to discover what makes each of us feel better and why.
