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, educators, and military leaders who have used these codes to transform their lives.

You will learn how to:

Recognize the neuroelectrical energy that powers your brain and emotions.

Harness the power of positive emotions to create change and build relationships.

Overcome negative emotions and stress through mindfulness and self-regulation.

Develop resilience and cope with challenges and setbacks.

Build stronger connections with others through empathy and communication.

Energy Rising is a powerful and practical guide for anyone who wants to live a more fulfilling and powerful life. Whether you're facing personal challenges or seeking to enhance your professional performance, this book will show you how to harness the energy in your brain to achieve your goals and live a life of impact.
