This is Your Brain on Joy Book Review

brain-joyThis book was a joy to read! It was like reading an “Idiots Guide to the Brain.” My mother has a rare brain disease, and now I understand which parts of the brain are controlling (or not controlling in her case) different parts of her.

I loved how Henslin incorporated the spiritual with the physical, without excuse, and with great enthusiasm. He has a way of making the hard-to-understand simple, yet not simplistic.

I can now read my mom’s MRIs and understand what I’m seeing, and I feel I can help her with some dietary changes and my own new awareness of how she “ticks.”

Henslin’s writing style is not condescending, and comes across as friendly and helpful. I have never read a book like this from cover to cover and understood what I’ve read. Now I have.
