O'connor, Richard (Psychotherapist)

We humans tend to get in our own way time and time again—whether it comes to not speaking up for ourselves, going back to bad romantic partners, dieting for the umpteenth try, or acting on any of a range of bad habits we just can’t seem to shake. In __Rewire__, renowned psychotherapist Richard O’Connor, PhD, reveals exactly why our bad habits die so hard. We have two brains—one a thoughtful, conscious, deliberative self, and the other an automatic self that makes most of our decisions without our attention. Using new research and knowledge about how the brain works, the book clears a path to lasting, effective change for behaviors that include:* Procrastination * Overeating * Chronic disorganization * Staying in bad situations * Excessive worrying * Risk taking * Passive aggression * Self-medication Bringing together many different fields in psychology and brain science, Dr. O’Connor gives you a road map to overcoming whatever self-destructive habits are plaguing you, with exercises throughout the book. We can rewire our brains to develop healthier circuitry, training the automatic self to make wiser decisions without having to think about it; ignore distractions; withstand temptations; see ourselves and the world more clearly; and interrupt our reflexive responses before they get us in trouble. Meanwhile, our conscious minds will be freed to view ourselves with compassion at the same time as we practice self-discipline. By learning valuable skills and habits—including... Leer más…

By William M. Struthers

Pornography is powerful. Our contemporary culture as been pornified, and it shapes our assumptions about identity, sexuality, the value of women and the nature of relationships. Countless Christian men struggle with the addictive power of porn. But common spiritual approaches of more prayer and accountability groups are often of limited help. In this book neuroscientist and researcher William Struthers explains how pornography affects the male brain and what we can do about it. Because we are embodied beings, viewing pornography changes how the brain works, how we form memories and make attachments. By better understanding the biological realities of our sexual development, we can cultivate healthier sexual perspectives and interpersonal relationships. Struthers exposes false assumptions and casts a vision for a redeemed masculinity, showing how our sexual longings can actually propel us toward sanctification and holiness in our bodies. With insights for both married and single men alike, this book offers hope for freedom from pornography. Leer más…

Breaking bad habits and overcoming addiction is challenging enough, but what if your bad habit is pornography or masturbation addiction? Society is so overly sexualised that addiction recovery can be hard to achieve in this area, to overcome pornography we need to understand the mechanics behind why we do it in the first place, and also look at the benefits of addiction recovery. Exploring this abstention-what it means, and how it can help us become better men is the first step on the journey to healing ourselves. We are so conditioned to believe that masturbation is just a normal thing to do that nobody ever questions it. Nobody looks at how damaging it can be to our mind, body, and spirit. In a way maybe we have all become a bit addicted! Pornography is so easily accessible these days is it any wonder many people have now developed an addiction? I first started looking into abstention around two years ago and I have never looked back. The techniques and ideas within this book have enabled me to break free from the conditioning and find not only my purpose but my power in life. It has enabled me to work on getting rid of other bad habits and increase my willpower to harness strength in all areas of life. This journey is a fascinating one with twists and turns along the way, some easier than others, but ultimately it has been so worth it. I hope this book will motivate you also to break free and step into a more authentic version of you free from the chains of pornography... Leer más…

Wilson, Gary

When high speed internet became widely available a few years ago, growing numbers of people began to worry that their porn use was running out of control. Far from preparing them for fulfilling relationships, viewing an endless stream of porn videos led to unexpected symptoms. Perhaps most surprisingly, for the first time in history erectile dysfunction was becoming a significant problem for young men. This led to one of the largest informal experiments in the history of science. Tens of thousands of people have tried abstaining from sexually stimulating material in a process they call 'rebooting'. Many of them reported startling changes, from improved concentration and elevated mood to a greater capacity for real-life intimacy. Gary Wilson has listened to the stories of those who have tried giving up internet porn and related them to an account of how the reward system of the brain interacts with its environment. And now a growing body of research in neuroscience is confirming what these pioneers have discovered for themselves - internet pornography can be seriously addictive and damaging. In Your Brain on Porn Wilson provides a concise introduction to the phenomenon of internet porn addiction that draws on both first-person accounts and the findings of cognitive neuroscience. In a voice that is generous and humane, he also offers advice for those who want to stop using internet pornography. The publication of Your Brain on Porn is a landmark in our attempts to...
