Summary

"Mind Over Hunger" explores the surprising link between fasting and mental well-being, arguing that controlled abstinence from food can enhance cognitive function and emotional resilience. It challenges the notion that constant consumption is necessary for optimal brain function, presenting fasting as a tool for self-improvement. The book highlights how strategic fasting impacts neurotransmitter production, influencing mood, and how ketogenesis can boost cognitive performance. This book uniquely focuses on the psychological aspects of fasting, rather than just the physical benefits.

 
Delving into neuroscience, psychology, and nutrition, it explains how periods of food restriction trigger physiological and neurological changes that can improve mental clarity and willpower. The book examines the processes of autophagy and mitophagy and how they promote cellular health, with practical guidance on safely implementing fasting protocols.

 
Beginning with the core concepts of fasting and its effects on the body and brain, the book progresses to explore the impact on neurotransmitters and cognitive performance. It culminates in demonstrating how fasting can be integrated into a holistic lifestyle for long-term mental and physical health, offering a fresh perspective on this ancient practice and its modern applications in self-help and cognitive enhancement.

Nancy Hendrickson

“Hendrickson takes readers on a magical journey where they learn how to construct a personal Book of Shadows filled with ancestral wisdom.” —Theresa Reed, author of Twist Your Fate   Most of us know our immediate family and maybe even a generation or two beyond, but few of us are attuned to those who lived earlier. Many of us have forgotten how to keep our own stories alive. This is where the ancestors come in and where this book begins.Ancestral Grimoire is a guide to reconnecting with your ancestors. It will show you how to access their unique wisdom—their magic!—and create your own personal ancestral grimoire, a spell book or Book of Shadows, unique to you and your heritage. Through divination, intuition, and sometimes a little luck, you will learn the magic of each ancestor and how you can use their gifts to make your life richer and more fulfilling. As you go through this book, you’ll save your ancestral work in a journal or loose-leaf binder that will become the place to store the stories, spells, rituals, and everyday life, lore, and legend of twelve of your ancestors. At the end of a year, you will hold a personal Book of Shadows with every bit of ancestral knowledge within its pages unique to you. No two will ever be alike.
