"A neuroscientist's guide to boosting your brain health by living a more connected life, and thriving in a post-interaction world. How do our brains behave in a world where face-to-face exchanges are growing increasingly rare, often replaced with virtual interactions? Renowned neuroscientist Dr. Ben Rein delves deep into the science of social interaction, revealing how our brains are wired for connection and why modern life is challenging our ancient instincts. Packed with astonishing teachings from the world of neuroscience, Rein uncovers the intricate brain systems that drive our social behaviors with exceptional clarity, sharing how to leverage this wiring to your advantage and adapt in an ever-changing world. Enlightening and empowering, this powerful book explains the impact of social interaction on mind, brain, and body. You'll learn: The hidden dangers of isolation and why it increases the risk of death by any cause; the neuroscience of empathy and deep connections; why the brain experiences virtual interactions differently from in-person encounters; the science-and unexpected benefits-of likeability and the secrets of making a positive impression; how relationships with animals can support our health; how certain drugs like ecstasy enhance social connections, while others like pain killers impair them; practical strategies for improving your social life to maximize benefits to your mental and physical health. Weaving together cutting-edge scientific discoveries, storytelling, and practical advice inspired by data, Rein reveals how our brains and our bodies are made stronger by connection, and why brain health is critical to our wellbeing"-- Provided by publisher.
