With the revolutionary brain conditioning technology, we can liberate ourselves from our limitations. This advanced technology allows the brain to see itself—to recognize where it's out of balance and not functioning well. Once our amazing brain discovers how it has learned to limit itself, it knows just how to readjust itself. As the brain network comes on line in the manner it's meant to exist in, no part of our life remains unaffected. As our emotions stabilize and our mental acuity picks up, our health and physical wellbeing advance also. Gone is our insecurity, our anxiety, our anger. Gone is our inexplicable sadness, depression, and thoughts of helplessness. Gone is our dependence on alcohol or mind-altering drugs. Life no longer feels as if we are stepping on the gas while someone else is stepping on the brake. In fact, by optimizing our brain, we optimize our entire life. We can at last be the limitless individuals we were born to be.

Darrell Gurney  and his new book NEVER APPLY FOR A JOB AGAIN

An eye-opening, paradigm-shattering examination of what makes us fat. In the New York Times best seller Good Calories, Bad Calories, acclaimed science writer Gary Taubes argues that certain kinds of carbohydrates—not fats and not simply excess calories—have led to our current obesity epidemic. Now he brings that message to a wider, nonscientific audience in this exciting new book. Persuasively argued, straightforward, practical, and with fresh evidence for Taubes’s claim, Why We Get Fat makes his critical argument newly accessible. Taubes reveals the bad nutritional science of the last century—none more damaging than the “calories-in, calories-out” model of why we get fat—and the good science that has been ignored, especially regarding insulin’s regulation of our fat tissue. He also answers key questions: Why are some people thin and others fat? What roles do exercise and genetics play in our weight? What foods should we eat or avoid? Concluding with an easy-to-follow diet, Why We Get Fat is an invaluable key to understanding an international epidemic and a guide to improving our own health.
