Because the same genes that cause autism enable the pattern seeking that is essential to our species' inventiveness.

Then you'll explore and commit to acting on your values, thereby creating a rich life for yourself—even with the occasional worry.

New hope for those suffering from conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, addictions, PTSD, ADHD, and more. Though incidence of these conditions is skyrocketing, for the past four decades standard treatment hasn’t much changed, and success rates in treating them have barely improved, either.

Brain specialist and best-selling author Dr. Daniel Amen aims to change all that.

Kennst Du auch dieses flaue Gefühl in der Magengegend, wenn uns Zustände übermannen, die zu Kontroll- und Hilflosigkeit, sowie auch höchster Anspannung führen?
