Prescription for Happiness

How to Eat, Move, and Supplement for Peak Mental Health

By: Robin Berzin

Narrated by: Emily Tremaine, Robin Berzin

A “compassionate, authoritative, and wise” (Mark Hyman, MD, New York Times bestselling author of The Pegan Diet) 30-day program that “will shift the way you think about your body and your health” (Gabrielle Bernstein, #1 New York Times bestselling author and international speaker) based on a paradigm-shifting idea: You have to change your body to change your mind and mood.

Prescription for Happiness offers a 30-day program for reaching a new level of energy, clarity, and calm. Too often, conventional medicine treats the mind as separate from the body. However, science shows that physical issues, such as chronic illness and weight fluctuation, are oftentimes intricately entwined with mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, fatigue, and more. This must-read book explores the new science of optimizing the body in ways that will help anyone attain a new baseline for energy, calm, and optimism.

Dr. Berzin draws on cutting-edge research and her work with thousands of patients to tell the complete story of how our physical health influences our energy level, mood, focus, and emotional wellbeing. This builds on her work at her nationally renowned holistic health service Parsley Health, where Dr. Berzin and her team of over 100 highly trained medical providers focus on treating the whole patient, yielding extraordinary results for those dealing with gastrointestinal, hormone-related, autoimmune, and mental health conditions. Leveraging Parsley’s unique patient data and successful proprietary protocols, Prescription for Happiness is the ultimate gateway to creating your new baseline for peak physical and mental health.

Practical and Encouraging

The audio was easy to listen to and the information was well organized. The author presented each area in a way that provided practical bite size changes to consider while remaining encouraging and understanding of how difficult change can be. I found her style to be motivational for continual improvement throughout life and this is definitely a book that I was listen to again and again over time.

Amazing book - eye opener for me

I started listening yesterday and am so excited to keep listening. I actually bought the hard copy today too to go back and reference later. I am loving the narrator’s delivery, and really feel the author/doctor cares about patients actually improving their overall life quality, as opposed to treating just an ailment that many western medicine doctors focus on. I realize that going to a functional doctor can be expensive - and people may be turned off by feeling that the book is only for the privileged, but I disagree. She is trying to empower readers and listeners to be more in-charge if their own health and empowered.

Couldn’t get through it

A lot of facts about how different products affect your mind and body. Suggestions for testing that you should be asking your doctor for. Not exactly what I was hoping/expecting.
