I was lucky enough to go to this clinic. I was diagnosed with severe bipolar and severe anxiety. I have been treated as crazy my whole life now I’m doing better because of this amazing man. Mental illness is real
I smoked and did drugs as a teen but I stopped when I turned twenty. I hope I didn't do long term damage. Changed my environment start reading books more. Got away from my friends who were taking drugs. I'm 36 now and those friends I hear are still taking drugs.
What I always tell myself is... Take the risk of permanent damage seriously, but also don't underestimate the body's power to heal and adjust, especially the brain. The brain is amazingly pliable if you exercise it like a muscle, take care of yourself, and try to avoid things like stress.
Wow..well done I say. Don't worry..just believe you've done a good thing. Watch Barbara O'neill on the brain. You've actually rewired your brain. Most importantly trust in Jesus & renew your mind by reading the word of God. Scripture says it washes our minds. Read John & take particular note of 1:1-14..its so exciting to find who Jesus actually is..then look at Colossians 1:12-18. After John I suggest Romans. Look up on Google..of you don't have a Bible..KJV & then reread it in NLT.
@@EughhBrothereughhthe doctor was talking about ANT or Automatic Negative Thoughts, so yes, you NEED to question your negative thoughts, it's good for you to do so.
The more I watch these TED seminars the more obvious these connections that pop up between them become. So many different views, so many different studies, all reaching the same conclusions but with a different light. Truly amazing.
I have wondered how to enjoy retirement past what I have already done? Volunteer work, travel, writing poetry, helping others, etc. I have had to face numerous mental and physical problems but my anxiety and depression disorders got controlled and I no longer are bothered by them! It’s my other worries that keep me from being able to enjoy my end life like blood clots, kidney disease, falls, mild dementia, and I take too many pills!! I want to get more exercise but I still have nerve damage problems. Any ideas how I can get through all this? How I spend my time is trying to help others and that helps me!! Anything else I could do? Thank you so very much.
Excellent point! I've spent all of 2012 doing prayers and meditation 3-4 x day, and it definitely changes my perspective, renews my spirit, and restores my compassion. And it does not matter what name I give my creator that day, but it does matter that I do it in a spirit of 1) Love; 2) Gratitude; 3) Kindness.
I was totally agreed with what you mentioned. I come from Hong Kong and have been suffering anxiety for the past two years. I saw the TED talk for healing. Thanks, Daniel Amen.
This Tedx was posted in 2011; I wish I had found it sooner. It is an exceptional talk regarding discovering the health of our brain from looking at images. It is so exciting to learn people can heal from illness or injury of the brain.
Yes I just stumbled across this now myself... And sooo glad that I listened.. I think it gave me a huge wake up call seeing those CT scans! Sadly my ex-husband died from Alzeimers and we put down to bad diet of living off sodas (aspartamine sugar free.. Bad news) and chocolates. Sadly from a brillant mind (he was a Computer Scientist), to his brain capacity totally diminished. Very sad indeed, when it could have been avoided. Died at 63
I'm having a few quiet moments after listening to this wonderful talk. Creating a new plan for my brain, a new plan for my life. Thank you Daniel for this wonderful talk. Johnnie Lawson
All this time I have been so focused on feeding my body when I should have been focused on feeding my brain! Thank you so much. I get it now. This paradigm shift will be life changing.
Very amazing! I just found that why my daughter can't focus on class and always feel sad. It is not mental but physical, she needs more nutrition and sports for her brain. Thank you so much, doctor Amen
This is absolutely amazing stuff, can you imagine if your people were to watch this stuff rather than movies all the time how the world could change? I will ask my kids to watch at least one of these at leas once a week.
My son couldn't focus. After research got him grape seed extract and pine bark and Bacopa. Or you could get Dr. Masqlaires OPC to take. (I couldn't afford it) the grape seed extract and pine bark was in it. Was a big game changer for him.
I'm watching from Turkey. I've listened to many Ted talks so far. But this was the best. Just the facts. The idea of changing our brains got me very excited. And it gave me hope. I listened to it in English but with Turkish subtitles. And I enjoyed it very much.
FIRE TO RE-WIRE!!! Re-wiring those old bad thoughts with positive affirmations keep it simple think of just one good thing about yourself and every time you have a bad thought repetitively repeat that good affirmation mentally and in time you will have more positive affirmations and at the same time you’ll be re-wiring for healthy thoughts!!🙏
I question my religion From time to time but today I am believing more. I am suffering from high anxiety and overweight and am lost. This just happened to come up on my recommended videos and I watched it. I will be watching this once a day. No idea how this showed up but I am glad it did.
I’ve lost 30lbs and in therapy. I am working toward a healthier lifestyle. I try and limit my self to 2300 calories a day. Many days I am at 2000. Some days I am over. Overall, I credit this video.
Absolutely fantastic talk. Factual, motivating and direct. This was really moving to me because I am someone with a TBI and actually damaged some of the grey matter in my right hemisphere. Alot of the things he says can improve your brain I do, sleep well, am sober, but there are somethings that are not the same and never will be. At one point I couldnt tie my own shoes let alone put my shirt on, now Im working a Part time job nearby. Gotta dream but man, I can get DOWN.

This is one of my favourite talks. Because the informations are so helpful and practicable at a daily basis. Prioritise to take care of yourself, which means your mental and physical self. In a praticable way on a daily basis means: take sleeping seriously. Which means, sleep enough. Pay attention to what you eat. Which means eat fresh fruit. Go out into fresh air. Do sports. Look around you. Are the people around you, making you feel happy, feel appreciated? You are able to live the life you want :)

If any one has the gift of compassion would you please pray for me! 200 lb's, high blood pressure, diabetes, depression, problems with memory, hard to get a good job, problems with money for good Dr., no friends, my family not involved. Thank You most kindly for your prayers I want to be well & be heal.
gloria guerra prayer isa lazy persons way to do nothing and think they did something. for real change get a bike ride 5 miles a day on level terrain do it in the morning before breakfast , you will lose 50 lbs in a year
+gloria guerra Prayers are with you Gloria. However not even the most sincere ones would alone change any of the conditions you mentioned above. Your will to change on the other hand will pay off but only if you worked hard toward your goals. Now I can keep telling you this motivational crap the whole day, it will be just that, merely a motivation. But, what if instead of just reading this comment from a random guy that clearly can't just mind his own business and going on with your life, you took a second to think. I want you Gloria to find a moment and a place where you're alone and think about what you can do , think about actions that you can take to solve your problems. I can probably give you some as working out so that you lose weight or adopting a healthy diet for your blood and diabetes problems but those are my ideas and my guess is that they won't work out with you. Rather than that you have to search for actions and habits or even passions that YOU like, that you can do almost daily and that will help you become a better Gloria. Decide and commit yourself to do them. Thank you for reading this comment, I know it's long, I know I need serious help to shut my mouth but I hope I have been a help to you. Have a wonderful day and good luck young lady !
+gloria guerra God bless, please look into why not to drink fluoridated water and whole food organic non-gmo nutrition :) It could really help you. Avoid high fructose corn syrup at all costs!
Wonderful man I hope people listen and he gets his message across to millions. School and hospital food is dreadful.There is so much that needs to change.
My depression forced me to learn more about the thought patterns , meditation, deep breathing and the functioning of amygdala and prefrontal cortex...... thank you sir for sharing all these information with everyone... May god bless you n bring lots n lots of happiness in your life...
I got PTSD as a small child and I was given medications and behavior classes and it was repetitive nightmares everyday and praying for death and ask god to help me and finding people and information like this has been a miracle in my life. I found a hernia been blocking blood flow and the signals for me to breathe and stuff and I kept saying my brain was broken and it took many doctors to get a scan and not more bad diagnosis medications being pushed. I thought my doctors are out to kill me. I'm not there yet but my thoughts and moods and inner life have gotten better. Thanks for understanding and putting this out there. Reform should be a priority even the foods in the stores aren't as healthy as the once were. Some ingredients are so toxic there banned in other countries. I'm 45 and even before having any surgery to relieve the pressure I been doing some of these healthy techniques and I was awake and not as afraid anymore. I believe many people who have generational PTSD from hard lives and bad health , military, anyone could use this way of thinking then how it's been. Pay doctors outright get rid of the insurance companies. I see people out here just not themselves and it's to do with the media and the drug pushers and old ways of doing things. Thanks. Many blessings. I'm trying to find a program to be in near Fargo ND. Codependency and huge issues with some who are in oppression or slavery type situations and many feel caught between the system then messes them up and the streets and I been there but doing some research and find a therapist or doctor that helped me get out of survival mode after 40 years of trying everything. I think this has alot of truth in it and Amen God answers prayers. Thank you.
I just come ascross this gentleman .Thank you for being here .You talks are motivating me .Allowing my brain to help me naturally .I do have less than 5 hours sleep I can't switch off but I'm trying my best with your talk .
Hang in there buddy, I hope you’re feeling better, 3 years later I’m in the same position and it’s been improving for me, be you my man, feel yourself ❤
This should become widespread public knowledge --especially in the government sectors of mental health, the department of corrections, and also department of education....please keep promoting this information!
One of the best TED talks I've ever heard, and this includes regular TED talks too. Great use of humor. Feeling motivated to improve now. I don't even mind the religious aspects that crop in occasionally...looking at that as a form of communal spiritualism. Not a churchgoer myself but a camper. In the great outdoors, I admire and ponder the creations of God / universal energy there. 🙂 ☮
Wired sent me here. I watched his "Brain Support" absolutely amazing. I'm recently free of depression but have a long way to go with anxiety, PTSD etc. I'm trying to change my life with positive people. This guy is definitely one of them. How amazing! He blows my mind!
I’m a functional nutritionist and 100% agree with everything Dr Amen is preaching! He is keeping it real and a doctor that is telling the truth about nutrition!
Dr 👏👏you speak so well, I wish I could listen to your talks forever and following your advice one can get really healthy,most I loved is ANT ( avoid negative thoughts),stay blessed always
Thank You Dr Amen all of the work you are doing is making such a difference in our society and in myself I appreciate the additional data that helps me make better choices keep up the good work
I am so unbelievably lucky to have come across you , Sir...& I honestly believe that countless other souls across the globe ought to feel similarly, too , if not exactly...& so much more, that I am falling short of words to express it. And I am no way flattering or exaggerating a bit.
I am convinced that up to the moment I tuned in to this lecture, I had not heard a more comprehensive (within the given time limits) guide of how to have a happy life. Because a healthy body and mind (and this means healthy habits also within the branch of one's psyche = e.g. avoid ANTs) are the basis which allows to stay stable even during hard times. And to all of you, who depreciate this man for the reason he hold to a certain faith: did he mention anything about it during the core segment of the lecture? It seems to me, that there was not a mention of it until he went on to show how one can change the lives of a community. So please be more rational and do not over-react. Thank you Sir for such an inspirational and wise word!
The fact that he does have a faith in Love and good is why he does his good work and wants to help humanity. That's his motivation. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. People commenting on here have no idea what God is so they speak out of pure ignorance. Dr Amen speaks from what he KNOWS to be true. :-)
I happened to take some notes, so just in case Healthy Habits for a Healthy Brain: + Positive social connections (including social media) + New Learning + Great diet; Food is Medicine + Sleep; cravings also go out of control + Exercise / Physical Activity + Healthy Anxiety; Care about health! + Meditation; activates front part of brain, most human part + Gratitude (write 3 a day) + ANT Killing (Keep positive thoughts, great attitude)
I am very grateful to this man who made me proud of my culture and the Islamic education I received, I chose to leave everything that harms my mind and behavior towards myself and others, and this is the secret of self-satisfaction and overcoming all obstacles in life. Thank you for your efforts.
I really am so worry about this new generation, it is so sad to see how much sugar is everywhere, every special occasion to be celebrate is full of poison! People is acting just like nobody really cares about it. This is so bad! Dr Amen, I appreciate and I am so thankful having you helping to the humanity, hopefully this channel is reaching to many people. 🙏
It is unfortunate that such interesting talks, and of so much content, innovative, cannot be heard or translated into Spanish, for those of us who do not have knowledge of that language. Dr. Daniel Amen is an eminence in the new brain imaging psychiatry. It is very enriching, knowing about their experience. It is a pity that FED does not have a translation into Spanish.
So awesome to get neuroscience proof finally, on something I got revelation from and did in my life - daniel meal plan. Thanks Doc loved your presentation.❤❤❤
this is GREAT!! this information is invaluable ! and quite innovated too! love his spirituality. I wouldn't expect nothing less from such a extraordinary person.
What about Medical Schools? They overload doctors-to-be with studying leaving them to time to sleep, we don't want to know what these kind eat, we only know they live of coffee and soda and when they go to internship they can go without sleep up to 36 hours. I wonder how their brain scan looks when they are done with internship and become REAL DOCTORS...
That might explain why so many doctors end up so narrow-minded, completely uncurious and resistant to any new information. Their brain has been damaged...
I would like to say thank to Doctor Daniel Amen too. I live in Malaysia and didn't have the chances to have my brain scan. But I do intensive study of his work (Book, Change you Brain, Changes your Live), watch many of his others video online, and taking his brain health assessment - which, I could not appreciated more, that all it is all free / related cheap provide with the benefit I earned back. The info it share, practically save me from mild depression I am a middle aged, male despite professionally appear successful - with a wife that have the same issue and a kids with ADHD - where it is not really that open to accept kids with this symptom in my Culture. Trust me, what this Doctor share - do work. Take your brain message seriously - and take all your best effort to taking care of your brain and health (which I believe it work hand in hand, advice that good for your brain, most likely do good for your body as well). Hope my message can spread some kind influence to those who needed. Thanks.
One of the best statements he made involved the fact that physicians use X-rays and other tests to analyze injury, however, how many psychiatrists or psychologist use PET scans to analyze a patients/client's brain for their mental health treatment ?!? I would totally agree with this ! The treatment should consist of a PET scan, analyzing behavior, diet, lifestyle, and counseling to get to the core of the issues ! 👍👍
I was lucky enough to go to this clinic. I was diagnosed with severe bipolar and severe anxiety. I have been treated as crazy my whole life now I’m doing better because of this amazing man. Mental illness is real
Glad to hear ur doing better. I wish I could afford to go to his clinic. Heard they dnt accept

This is exactly what yoga teaches us...
Someone who cares and works genuinely for a cause bigger than themselves seems to get all the help they need which is beautiful
This is one of the best speeches for me. I feel so close with idea. But very often feeling alone about this idea of healthy eating, fresh air and every day exercises. Thank you so much to talk about it 🙌
A board certified psychiatrist on a TED stage giving this sort of advice is pretty amazing
Te quiero.Te admiro.Gracias Infinitas
He is amazing. So is his wife Tana. They have many ways they work to teach people what is best for them.
Psychiatry has maintained integrity & not sold out to commodification of medicine (for now).
If any one has the gift of compassion would you please pray for me! 200 lb's, high blood pressure, diabetes, depression, problems with memory, hard to get a good job, problems with money for good Dr., no friends, my family not involved. Thank You most kindly for your prayers I want to be well & be heal.
gloria guerra Gloria- my prayers are with you. Wanting to be well is the first step.
N Huf
gloria guerra prayer isa lazy persons way to do nothing and think they did something. for real change get a bike ride 5 miles a day on level terrain do it in the morning before breakfast , you will lose 50 lbs in a year
+gloria guerra Prayers are with you Gloria. However not even the most sincere ones would alone change any of the conditions you mentioned above. Your will to change on the other hand will pay off but only if you worked hard toward your goals. Now I can keep telling you this motivational crap the whole day, it will be just that, merely a motivation. But, what if instead of just reading this comment from a random guy that clearly can't just mind his own business and going on with your life, you took a second to think. I want you Gloria to find a moment and a place where you're alone and think about what you can do , think about actions that you can take to solve your problems. I can probably give you some as working out so that you lose weight or adopting a healthy diet for your blood and diabetes problems but those are my ideas and my guess is that they won't work out with you. Rather than that you have to search for actions and habits or even passions that YOU like, that you can do almost daily and that will help you become a better Gloria. Decide and commit yourself to do them. Thank you for reading this comment, I know it's long, I know I need serious help to shut my mouth but I hope I have been a help to you. Have a wonderful day and good luck young lady !
+gloria guerra God bless, please look into why not to drink fluoridated water and whole food organic non-gmo nutrition :) It could really help you. Avoid high fructose corn syrup at all costs!
Wonderful man I hope people listen and he gets his message across to millions. School and hospital food is dreadful.There is so much that needs to change.
Hi
My depression forced me to learn more about the thought patterns , meditation, deep breathing and the functioning of amygdala and prefrontal cortex......
thank you sir for sharing all these information with everyone... May god bless you n bring lots n lots of happiness in your life...
Stop owning the depression.
@@mwamsonge ooo sorry...... 😀😀😀🙏🙏🙏
what did he say that makes you think he owned his depression@@mwamsonge
How do you feel right now
@@aymaneoulahyane6803 feeling happy right now 😁😁😁😁😁
I got PTSD as a small child and I was given medications and behavior classes and it was repetitive nightmares everyday and praying for death and ask god to help me and finding people and information like this has been a miracle in my life. I found a hernia been blocking blood flow and the signals for me to breathe and stuff and I kept saying my brain was broken and it took many doctors to get a scan and not more bad diagnosis medications being pushed. I thought my doctors are out to kill me. I'm not there yet but my thoughts and moods and inner life have gotten better. Thanks for understanding and putting this out there. Reform should be a priority even the foods in the stores aren't as healthy as the once were. Some ingredients are so toxic there banned in other countries. I'm 45 and even before having any surgery to relieve the pressure I been doing some of these healthy techniques and I was awake and not as afraid anymore. I believe many people who have generational PTSD from hard lives and bad health , military, anyone could use this way of thinking then how it's been. Pay doctors outright get rid of the insurance companies. I see people out here just not themselves and it's to do with the media and the drug pushers and old ways of doing things. Thanks. Many blessings. I'm trying to find a program to be in near Fargo ND. Codependency and huge issues with some who are in oppression or slavery type situations and many feel caught between the system then messes them up and the streets and I been there but doing some research and find a therapist or doctor that helped me get out of survival mode after 40 years of trying everything. I think this has alot of truth in it and Amen God answers prayers. Thank you.
I just come ascross this gentleman .Thank you for being here .You talks are motivating me .Allowing my brain to help me naturally .I do have less than 5 hours sleep I can't switch off but I'm trying my best with your talk .
Hang in there buddy, I hope you’re feeling better, 3 years later I’m in the same position and it’s been improving for me, be you my man, feel yourself ❤
This should become widespread public knowledge --especially in the government sectors of mental health, the department of corrections, and also department of education....please keep promoting this information!
Hello beautiful Wendy how are you doing
One of the best TED talks I've ever heard, and this includes regular TED talks too. Great use of humor. Feeling motivated to improve now. I don't even mind the religious aspects that crop in occasionally...looking at that as a form of communal spiritualism. Not a churchgoer myself but a camper. In the great outdoors, I admire and ponder the creations of God / universal energy there. 🙂 ☮
Have watched and rewatched. Cleary the best I've ever watched on Ted. Keep up the good work Dr.
Wired sent me here. I watched his "Brain Support" absolutely amazing. I'm recently free of depression but have a long way to go with anxiety, PTSD etc.
I'm trying to change my life with positive people. This guy is definitely one of them. How amazing! He blows my mind!
I’m a functional nutritionist and 100% agree with everything Dr Amen is preaching! He is keeping it real and a doctor that is telling the truth about nutrition!
Thank you Dr. Amen. I've never been drawn to anything more than this in my whole life. You completely changed my perspective ❤️
I think this makes so much sense and now when I think of certain people and their behavior I feel more compassion and also feel hopeful for them.
I like the point about gratitude!!! My life has changed when I started working with my mind.
I just enjoyed Receiving all the informations and writing it on my Note book ! I'm 17 and I'm scared to lose my brain's health
You are 20 now
Dr 👏👏you speak so well, I wish I could listen to your talks forever and following your advice one can get really healthy,most I loved is ANT ( avoid negative thoughts),stay blessed always
What a brilliant Ted Talk. You are a true outlier. Thank you. May you inspire generations of psychiatrists
👏👏👏 O Brasil precisa de profissionais psiquiatras assim, como o Dr. Daniel Amen.
😍🥰
I came here to learn English, Now learning about brain 🧠😅
Yep😂

Shi h
Lucky you!
Same haha
Wonderful ! I pray some day the Daniel Plan reaches to all the Churches and Schools in India !
Amen !
Thank you! After 13 years this video still is relevant!
Thank You Dr Amen all of the work you are doing is making such a difference in our society and in myself I appreciate the additional data that helps me make better choices keep up the good work
My quit smoking date is June 15/2023 by Gods grace 🇨🇩🌍🌍🙏🏽❤️
Never fall in the trap again
May god give you double everything for what he has taught us!!!
"Best antidepressant..GRATITUDE "💜💋💜
💯
With positive attitude
It´s not a coincidence that your surname is Amen. Thanks God:) I´m so happy and excited for what you do for people!
I am so unbelievably lucky to have come across you , Sir...& I honestly believe that countless other souls across the globe ought to feel similarly, too , if not exactly...& so much more, that I am falling short of words to express it.
And I am no way flattering or exaggerating a bit.
This information provides hope no matter what your age, an indispensable part of a healthy lifestyle (right along with gratitude). Thank you Dr. A
Hello beautiful jan how are you doing
best tedtalk I've ever seen. I feel blessed and I'll definitely pray for you Mr. Daneil Amen 😊
oh my goodness, this ted talk literally changes my mindset forever
wow, this is the best TED Talk, after watching this video, I realized I'd been hurting my brain for a long time and now I'm going to start healing it.
I give up on smoking 💔😭❤️i wish i've Come across this since my 14ans🤲❤️May Allah bless you Sir 🎉
Read easy ways to quit smoking. - by Allen Carr,
Trust me it's one of the best books I have ever read,
Absolutely fantastic! Such positivity! So committed! Loved every word of all your talks! Thank you for your dedication Dr. Daniel Amen! 🙏🏻
I am convinced that up to the moment I tuned in to this lecture, I had not heard a more comprehensive (within the given time limits) guide of how to have a happy life. Because a healthy body and mind (and this means healthy habits also within the branch of one's psyche = e.g. avoid ANTs) are the basis which allows to stay stable even during hard times. And to all of you, who depreciate this man for the reason he hold to a certain faith: did he mention anything about it during the core segment of the lecture? It seems to me, that there was not a mention of it until he went on to show how one can change the lives of a community. So please be more rational and do not over-react. Thank you Sir for such an inspirational and wise word!
The fact that he does have a faith in Love and good is why he does his good work and wants to help humanity. That's his motivation. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. People commenting on here have no idea what God is so they speak out of pure ignorance. Dr Amen speaks from what he KNOWS to be true. :-)
Lllll
One of the best videos I have ever watched.
I had to tell my wife to watch it with me.
Just the awareness of me being bigger than my mind and my circumstances is enough for you to deal with more than 99% of the problems.
I happened to take some notes, so just in case
Healthy Habits for a Healthy Brain:
+ Positive social connections (including social media)
+ New Learning
+ Great diet; Food is Medicine
+ Sleep; cravings also go out of control
+ Exercise / Physical Activity
+ Healthy Anxiety; Care about health!
+ Meditation; activates front part of brain, most human part
+ Gratitude (write 3 a day)
+ ANT Killing (Keep positive thoughts, great attitude)
Worths watching!
I believe that everyone can change his life by thinking different and by controlling the way his/her brain works out.
He is really a great speaker and has inspired me to do more on my overall to work on brain health
Great great great speech ! Thank you Dr Amen
I am very grateful to this man who made me proud of my culture and the Islamic education I received, I chose to leave everything that harms my mind and behavior towards myself and others, and this is the secret of self-satisfaction and overcoming all obstacles in life.
Thank you for your efforts.
Is he Muslim?
@@mariamtee I don't know, but I mean that everything he said was mentioned in the teachings of Islam
I have started to keep a diary: "three things I am grateful for". I hope I can see the results. Thank you Daniel!!
my son suffered heartbreak trauma and its been a year and he believes in healing himself without meds he is holding strong. thank you doctor
Dr Amen, you are amazing. I have been following you for some time and read a few of your books. Thank you for what you do.
I have learned more about life watching Tedtalks than my 61 years of life.
Me too!
You’re 64 now
I really am so worry about this new generation, it is so sad to see how much sugar is everywhere, every special occasion to be celebrate is full of poison! People is acting just like nobody really cares about it. This is so bad! Dr Amen, I appreciate and I am so thankful having you helping to the humanity, hopefully this channel is reaching to many people. 🙏
It is unfortunate that such interesting talks, and of so much content, innovative, cannot be heard or translated into Spanish, for those of us who do not have knowledge of that language. Dr. Daniel Amen is an eminence in the new brain imaging psychiatry. It is very enriching, knowing about their experience. It is a pity that FED does not have a translation into Spanish.
Are you able to translate it for the Spanish speaking community?
@@Take_a_breath208 Perhaps there is a transcript of the talk that could be translated
So awesome to get neuroscience proof finally, on something I got revelation from and did in my life - daniel meal plan. Thanks Doc loved your presentation.❤❤❤
Amazing video on how to develop a healthier, happier brain. Definitely inspired me to make some changes in my life!

Daniel Amen Cares And He Is Sincere
Wow.. God bless you Doctor
I have his "Change Your Brain, Change Your Life" book on CD....and I LOVE it!!!
This is SO powerful; LOVING this talk! He's showing Proof that PMA - positive mental attitude - DOES improve your life!
yes so long as you're not lying to yourself. Don't try to convince yourself something that isn't real or happening.
Daniel Amen - this was amazing - God Bless all your efforts
I'm was going through homesick...youtube recommended this video..Great video..thank you so much for this🙏
Very motivated to start a NEW life. I will be more grateful from here on out and watch what I eat! Thank you, Daniel!
this video includes very clear messages. Mr. Amen has a strong knowledge in his career. Respect him..
Greetings from Turkey !!
this is GREAT!! this information is invaluable ! and quite innovated too! love his spirituality. I wouldn't expect nothing less from such a extraordinary person.
What about Medical Schools? They overload doctors-to-be with studying leaving them to time to sleep, we don't want to know what these kind eat, we only know they live of coffee and soda and when they go to internship they can go without sleep up to 36 hours. I wonder how their brain scan looks when they are done with internship and become REAL DOCTORS...
I know. Could you imagine airline pilots training like that?
Nursing school too! It’s ridiculous!
Yes. Then add another layer if you are female to that, or brown skinned and the amount of trauma these people go through is not healthy.
That might explain why so many doctors end up so narrow-minded, completely uncurious and resistant to any new information. Their brain has been damaged...
You're a real worry-wart,aren't ya?
I would like to say thank to Doctor Daniel Amen too. I live in Malaysia and didn't have the chances to have my brain scan. But I do intensive study of his work (Book, Change you Brain, Changes your Live), watch many of his others video online, and taking his brain health assessment - which, I could not appreciated more, that all it is all free / related cheap provide with the benefit I earned back.
The info it share, practically save me from mild depression
I am a middle aged, male despite professionally appear successful - with a wife that have the same issue and a kids with ADHD - where it is not really that open to accept kids with this symptom in my Culture.
Trust me, what this Doctor share - do work.
Take your brain message seriously - and take all your best effort to taking care of your brain and health (which I believe it work hand in hand, advice that good for your brain, most likely do good for your body as well). Hope my message can spread some kind influence to those who needed.
Thanks.
One of the best statements he made involved the fact that physicians use X-rays and other tests to analyze injury, however, how many psychiatrists or psychologist use PET scans to analyze a patients/client's brain for their mental health treatment ?!? I would totally agree with this ! The treatment should consist of a PET scan, analyzing behavior, diet, lifestyle, and counseling to get to the core of the issues ! 👍👍
