Modern gives
the illusion that it is easy. But we suffer from more mental stress and illnesses
than ever before. This book is an insight into how technology has become the
center of our world and its harmful repercussions for our psychological and
overall well-being. Dr. Rego asks readers why safe citizens of first-world
countries with ample supply of good food, housing, and medical care still seem
to be increasingly dissatisfied with their lives and themselves. He expertly
explains the neuroscience of the brain, and how the excessive information
available to our brain 24/7 contributes to the fatigue our brain’s frontal
lobes experience. The widespread use of technology has overwhelmed our
computing capacity to the point that we are at risk of being
neurologically drained.
Frontal
Fatigue: The Impact of Modern Life and Technology on Mental Illness by Mark D
Rego, M.D. is a practical approach to dealing with the stress in our lives
through proper and conscious body maintenance exercises. Our emotional and
mental capacities are being challenged by the influx of information and
societal expectations of the 21st century. Our lives at this point are so
different from what our brains have evolved to handle. This book offers tools
for readers to not only understand the nefarious effects of contemporary and
advanced technology but the ability to create balance and to create a lifestyle
that handles the stress resulting from overwhelming information.
An intensive
yet insightful book about the psychology of the minds of today, Frontal
Fatigue offers a compelling and timely message to a larger audience
than just those in the medical profession. The book also proposes remarkable
conscious practical efforts to improve the health of the mind, body, and
spirit. Dr. Rego provides extensive and ample neuroscientific research to
support his hypotheses about the detrimental effects of technology on our
well-being. If you are looking for crisp insights about collective
deteriorating mental health in modern times and how you can take active steps
to better your perspective, Frontal Fatigue: The Impact of Modern Life
and Technology on Mental Illness by Mark D Rego, M.D. is the perfect
book for you to read. Expertly written and replete with must-know
information.
