Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess
By Caroline Leaf
About Book
Do you need a mental detox? In Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess, Caroline Leaf presents her approach to healing your mind from trauma and toxic thinking. This approach, which she calls neurocycling, teaches you to exercise mental self-control and leverage neuroplasticity—your ability to literally rewire your brain for the better. Leaf argues that neurocycling is both innovative and effective: While traditional mental health treatments ignore the power of the mind over the body, neurocycling takes full advantage of that relationship, enabling you to become happier and healthier.

In our guide, we’ll first discuss mental toxicity, its sources, and its effects; then, we’ll dive into the science behind neurocycling and explain how you can practice it. In our commentary, we’ll explore evidence for and against Leaf’s approach and discuss ideas about mental health treatment from experts in anthropology, philosophy, psychology, and other disciplines.
