The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery

Explore the connection between neuroscience, faith, and the patterns of everyday thinking.

In this neuroscience-based, faith-infused guide, Dr. W. Lee Warren, a practicing neurosurgeon, trauma survivor, and writer, explores how reordering the mind can change the brain. He brings together the lessons of a scientist, his own experiences of hardship, and a faith that hope belongs in daily life.

Warren introduces what he calls “self-brain surgery” operations, practical ways to examine limiting thoughts, break old habits, create new ones, and build resilience. His approach considers the relationships between mental patterns, emotional struggles, and a hopeful outlook.

With the skill of a surgeon and the wounds of a trauma survivor, Warren invites readers to consider how neuroscience and Christian faith can inform the way they respond to the challenges they face.
