Brain Training: Secret Techniques To: Improve Memory, Focus & Concentration

What if achieving peak performance in terms of appearance, feeling, and performance wasn't just a pipe dream but rather something everyone could do?

Sure, some of us manage to perform at our absolute best in one or more areas. For example, there are professional card counters, computer programmers, and race car drivers who spend their days hunched over their keyboards, cards, and steering wheels. They have optimized minds. They also have optimized bodies. Monks and meditators wander the earth with optimized spirits.

But in an ideal world, you could have everything: total improvement of the mind, body, and spirit.

Ben Greenfield, an expert in health and fitness and the author of Beyond Training, presents a ground-breaking roadmap for overall human improvement in Boundless.

This ground-breaking book investigates the cultural norms that prevent resilience in America, particularly our societal propensity to ignore the need for recovery and to detach stress from its potentially severe consequences. It teaches the science behind how to focus our attention so that we may function well under pressure and heal from trauma. Even in high-stress situations, we may obtain agency with training. In truth, any maladaptive habit or response that has been conditioned by stress or trauma can be reconditioned and healed with intention and knowledge. The secret is to employ techniques that engage both the thinking and survival brains. We can increase the window in which our thinking brain and survival brain collaborate by focusing our attention in specific ways. We may access our greatest, most distinctively human traits-our compassion, boldness, curiosity, creativity, and connection with others-when we utilize consciousness to control our biology in this way. By strengthening our resilience, we may teach ourselves to choose wisely and make decisions even in the face of extreme stress, uncertainty, and change.
