A Groundbreaking Brain-Based Approach to Healing Physical and Emotional Pain

If you’re living with chronic pain whether physical, emotional, or both Change Your Brain, Change Your Pain will transform how you think about healing.

In this revolutionary new book, world-renowned psychiatrist and brain health expert Dr. Daniel Amen reveals that pain is not just a body problem—it’s a brain problem. Drawing on the latest neuroscience and over 250,000 brain scans, Dr. Amen shows how pain rewires your brain, trapping you in a vicious “Doom Loop”—a self-perpetuating cycle where physical and emotional pain feed off each other, keeping you stuck in suffering, sadness, and stress.

But you don’t have to stay stuck. With the insights in this book, you can get out of the Doom Loop and into a Healing Loop that activates your brain’s natural soothing pathways, so you can experience less pain and more peace.

• Calm overactive pain circuits in the brain
• Heal emotional trauma and release trapped feelings
• Reduce inflammation that fuels pain and mental anguish
• Use your thoughts and habits to flip the switch on your brain’s natural healing power
• Escape the pain cycle and create a new path toward resilience, energy, and joy.
