Energy Rising

Your success in life-at work and at home-rises when you harness the energy that powers your brain. A neuropsychologist explains how.

Your drive to create change, catalyze impact, and build relationships all come from neuroelectrical energy-real, electrical impulses-firing in your brain. Who you are as a person depends on how you work with this energy. When this energy rises within you, you feel empowered and dynamic. But when this energy falls, you feel down, stressed, and defeated.

You may feel as if you don't control your emotional energy, that it's an inevitable consequence of the world around you and the forces bearing down on you. But that's not the case. To reach your full potential, you can learn to recognize and harness the energy in your brain. Leading neuropsychologist Julia DiGangi will teach you how through eight "codes." Some of the codes will surprise you. All will fortify you. You will learn why these codes work and how to apply them to your own challenges through exercises and reflections.

When you start viewing your life less about the activities you do and more about the natural energies within and around you, your power to live and lead with impact grows exponentially. Energy Rising offers you a provocative and neuroscientifically accurate path to greater emotional power, influence, and connection, both at work and at home.

DiGangi's lab and clinical work have been conducted at Harvard, Columbia, Georgetown University, the University of Chicago, DePaul, and the University of Illinois Chicago. Her fMRI and EEG research has helped business leaders, parents, couples, educators, and military leaders. Her work, rooted in resilience after extreme stress, will show you how to effectively deal with struggles you currently face. She tells the stories of business leaders, parents, couples-and even combat veterans and trauma survivors-who used the eight codes to rise.

Klappentext

"Your drive to create change, have impact, and solve problems all comes from the energy-the real electrical impulses-firing in your brain. On good days, this energy rises in you. It makes you feel empowered and dynamic. And on bad days, this same energy hurts. It leaves you depleted and defeated. Who you become-how dynamic and powerful you are as a person and a leader-depends on learning to work with this energy. You may feel as if you don't control this energy, that it's just a product of the world around you and the forces bearing down on you. But that's not the case. You can learn to recognize your brain's energy in the moment, harness it, and transform it from painful to powerful. Julia DiGangi will teach you how through eight "codes," or principles, to follow. Some of them may surprise you, suggesting you do the opposite of what you want to do. You will learn why they work and how to apply them through exercises and reflections. A deeply experienced neuropsychologist, DiGangi has conducted research with colleagues at Harvard, Columbia, Georgetown, the University of Chicago, and elsewhere. For many years, she's worked with individuals who have endured the worst traumas, from survivors of domestic abuse to combat veterans, and helped them transform their energy and rise to powerful new heights. Their stories and those of business leaders enduring their own struggles bring the eight codes to life. When you shift to this mindset and start viewing your life and work less as activities you do and more as natural energies within and around you, you can harness this energy more effectively, and your power to lead-both yourself and others-will grow exponentially.
