Description
A life-changing guide to understanding your brain and how to change it-for good.
Break Through the Limits of the Brain explores the neuroscience of sacred, superconscious experience. It offers proven ways to break through the brain's limits into a life-changing, life-enhancing awareness that is beyond our everyday consciousness; an awareness that is intuitive, creative, energized, joyful, and spirit-filled.
Selbie explains how and why the brain's neural circuits reinforce thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that keep us immersed in limited conscious awareness-and how radical neuroplasticity enables our innate ability to rewire the brain to break through to unlimited superconscious awareness.
The book offers many practices: the Hong Sau technique of meditation for deepening concentration, energization exercises for increasing life-force and vitality, methodical introspection techniques for identifying neurally reinforced negative patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior and affirmations for directly rewiring them. These practices will help you bring superconscious awareness into your life that enables, awakens, and supports success, vitality, creativity, health, peace of mind, and lasting, fulfilling happiness.
Break Through the Limits of the Brain provides strong scientific support for superconscious awareness; scientific support provided by quantum physics and M-theory for the existence of a subtle, nonlocal reality; a reality in which we exist simultaneously with physical reality; a reality of which we can become aware by breaking through the limits of the brain.
The book debunks scientific materialism's brain-based explanation for consciousness and intelligence-the brain-as-supercomputer model-and explains the view of many prominent and open-minded scientists that an all-pervading intelligent consciousness is not only the source of our own consciousness but also the foundation of reality-an age-old sacred belief shared by saints, sages, mystics, and those who've had near-death experiences.
Meditation is a central theme of the book-what it is; how to do it; why it works; its physical, mental, and emotional benefits as measured by neuroscientists; and how it rewires the brain for us to experience superconscious awareness and to achieve whatever we put our mind to.

"A user's manual for superheroes. Joseph Selbie's well written trifecta provides (1) an inspiring collection of stories about real-life super abilities, (2) a rational scientific framework for understanding how these abilities are possible, and (3) practices to help you achieve your superconscious potentials. An exhilarating read." -Dean Radin PhD, Chief Scientist, Institute of Noetic Sciences and author, Real Magic* Reviews * "Joseph Selbie's book on the brain is another welcome addition to the growing post-materialist literature on the brain and consciousness. Selbie makes the important point that the normal brain filters out most of what is superconscious in us. You will especially like that he makes a good case that rewiring the brain can help expand the brain's ability. So what are you waiting for? Learn to rewire the brain." -Amit Goswami, theoretical quantum physicist and coauthor of The Quantum Brain and Quantum Spirituality
* Reviews * "I loved this groundbreaking book. Break Through the Limits of the Brain joyfully guides us to sacred oneness. Joseph Selbie beautifully describes the high states of spiritual awareness, and more importantly, tells us how to personally achieve these exalted states. The book's time-proven practices are extraordinary in their effectiveness." -Joseph Bharat Cornell, author, Flow Learning and Deep Nature Play, Founder & President, Sharing Nature Worldwide
* Reviews * "If you have any interest in the brain and consciousness this book is a gem. It starts with a thorough examination of the latest scientific information on how our brains function. But then it goes beyond the current limitations of scientific materialism to pursue the higher realms of awareness, especially the limitless potential of superconscious. Selbie has a clear, lucid engaging style that allows the information to sink in and expand our understanding. Selbie then goes on to practical techniques of meditation to calm, focus, and expand our minds. All in all, one of the finest books I've ever read on this subject."-Jyotish Novak, author of How to Meditate
* Reviews * "Great hatchet job on Reality! What I used to think of as 'me,' I now understand is just a cascading series of habitual brain synapses. After fifty years of meditation, I have a whole new perspective of what it is and why it works. A brilliant, original, life-changing, and entertaining read. Well done!" -Asha Nayaswami, author of Lightbearer
* Reviews * "Selbie shows us how to 'rewire' our brains to live at our peak capacity; dancing fluidly between the 'heaven' and 'earth' of our nature. He integrates insights from cutting-edge vanguard science to reveal the emerging science of super-consciousness." -Dana Lynne Andersen, artist, author, and founder of The Academy of Art, Creativity and Consciousness
