In addition, rave reviews have followed. Reviewer Jason Gibson writes "The only negative aspect of this book is that I wish I had this resource available to me earlier in my life! This is such an excellent description of tested techniques for developing a sound mental awareness, that it should be a staple for everyone to gain access! I genuinely believe Dr. Kotulska-Haskin’s work will be influencing positive outcomes in people’s lives for decades to come.
I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars."
Neuropsychologist Koltuska-Haskin's illuminating debut delineates the elements of neuropsychology and provides a practical model for improving brain health and function.
Two self-help books in one, the first half of this thorough guide touches on the history of clinical neuropsychology, effective evaluation methods, and the importance of a neuropsychological evaluation.
Koltuska-Haskin clearly explains the stages of a neuropsychological evaluation, taking into account differing circumstances. Technical procedures are outlined in unobtrusive detail. The trickier aspects of medical care, such as insurance and the privacy of medical records under HIPAA, is explained.
The second half of the book offers a variety of holistic methods for boosting brain health with a healthy diet, sleep, exercise, meditation, and other practices.
The award of Distinguished Favorite in the Health and Fitness category in the NYC Big Book Award is a tribute to the book’s achievement in combining a wide range of knowledge essential for optimal brain function with practical advice based on the author’s many years experience as one of the nation’s leading neuropsychologists.
How My Brain Works provides the reader with a basic understanding of this unique organ, advice for anyone concerned about the possibility of a cognitive problem, and the wisdom of the author’s experience in helping her many patients keep their brains healthy and functioning at their highest level.
Building on this information, Dr. Koltuska-Haskin offers a wealth of advice and tips on how to build and maintain optimum brain health. Reaching widely into the physical, psychological, nutritional, and spiritual worlds, she pulls together new research as well as age-old treasured learning to create an everyday guide to harnessing our most powerful mental tools in shaping the healthful and successful lives we all seek.
