    How Common People Are Doing the Uncommon

    This book argues that people can go beyond ordinary limits by changing their thoughts, emotions and habits to rewire brain and body chemistry; drawing on neuroscience, epigenetics and interpretations of quantum theory, it presents a model in which focused intention, heart–brain coherence and meditative practices produce measurable physiological changes that enable healing and manifestation.
