Dr. Henslin provides practical tips February 25, 2009
Reviewer: Kristine from Oregon
In his book This is Your Brain on Joy, Dr. Henslin provides practical tips to help people regulate their emotions and promote a healthy brain balance. Dr. Henslin has had extensive experience using SPECT brain imaging to help people who weren’t making progress through psychotherapy. These scans can actually pinpoint where a brain may be dysfunctioning so that the correct medication or treatment plan can be prescribed.
However, Dr. Henslin further asserts that there is no such thing as a perfect brain, and we could all use a little help being happy sometimes. His book includes a checklist that readers can fill out to pinpoint potential problems. From here, readers could simply read the chapters that may be relevant to them, or they could read the book as a whole.
My favorite section is chapter five, where Dr. Henslin describes “Joy Boosters”. He categorizes these boosters into three parts: First, enrich your outer world through, beauty, music, or smells. Secondly, enrich your inner world through movies, books, prayer, or meditation. Lastly, enrich your body-mind chemistry through nutrition and exercise. He expands on these three areas throughout his book with specific strategies that may help with anger, depression, anxiety, ADHD, etc. His advice is extremely practical and easy to apply while remaining scientifically based. I found his joy boosters to be very helpful, both personally and as a parent.
