With Dr. Melanie Brown as your guide, you'll recognize your own greatness — understand it, embrace it, and experience it on every level of your life.
Citing dozens of contemporary and historical examples — from Van Gogh to Mary Lou Retton — and drawing on the latest research in physiology and quantum physics, Dr. Brown demonstrates that the enlightened voice you hear within yourself is an expression of the underlying field of all natural laws: the energy and intelligence that enlivens all of life. She teaches you to tap into that energy and access that unified field to become the person you are truly meant to be.
Dr. Brown examines the traditional concept of greatness, redefines it, and dispels the myths surrounding great people. Using quantum physics as a springboard, she introduces "Q thinking" — a way of thinking that, unlike linear thought, gives you the whole picture in every part.
