Editorial Review
Ever wonder why most women can handle the kids and careers and the renovation but men can concentrate on either the newspaper or a game on TV? This is because female brains have more interconnections that allow them to multi-task and split their attention.
The New Feminine Brain is the first book by a medical doctor, who is also a psychiatrist and a brain expert, to show how modern life challenges are physically rewiring the brain and to address the particular challenges that women face as a result. The female brain today is not your grandmother's brain - it has even more connections and skills, but with that can come more physical problems, including an increase in attention and memory deficits and chronic mood and health conditions.
The New Feminine Brain combines the insights of Dr Schulz's research and stories of clinical experience as a neuropsychiatrist treating people with tough brain disorders with unique self-help and expert health advice. Readers will discover and cultivate their special genius and intuitive style with provocative self-tests, so they can hear and heal their depression, anxiety, attention, memory, and other brain problems. 'Rewiring' exercises, herbs and nutritional supplements will improve their physical, psychological and emotional health.

It's NOT As Advertised 
2008-10-09
I picked this title because its subtitle is "developing your intuitive genius" and the cover promises readers will "discover how to use your intuition to improve your physical, emotional, and relationship health" but in fact the VAST majority of the book is autobiographical. This is not a self-help book for anyone but the author. A far more accurate subtitle would be "one woman's journey" because the advice was slim, and applicable only to the author and a few of her circle of friends. Which reminds me, she's a bit of a name-dropper. Bottom line: pick it up from the library before you waste your money; I rather doubt it's what you'll expect- or want - to read.
doesn't deliver the promise 
2008-07-13
Apart from relatively well known facts about difference between women's and men's brain (nothing you can't find on internet) the "New feminine brain" is dedicated to pms(just couple pages), depression, phobias, anxiety, obsessions etc. If you do not suffer from above listed alignments and prefer natural treatment to drugs and daily supplements there is little in this book for you. Please rent a book form a friend or the library prior to purchase to make sure its what you want.
Run, don't walk, to this book... 
2008-04-16
Wondering why you are constantly sick, tired or just unhappy in general? If so, I command you to RUN, not walk, over to your local library or bookstore and pick up this brilliant piece of work by Dr. Mona Lisa Schulz. Two of the biggest issues I see with women and self-esteem are a) that they aren't taking good care of themselves (not exercising, eating well, taking vitamins, etc.) and b) that they stuff their emotions by not acknowledging the fact they feel powerless, lonely or just plain angry. I realize the book looks like a tome but it's very easy to skim around for just what you need. Don't be surprised, however, if you end up reading the whole thing.
The New Feminine Brain 
2008-04-07
I love this book b/c it explains so much about me, each day or month that I feel different. It explains why I get it, and on another day I don't. Why my husband thinks the way he does, and it helped me to understand that I must let some things go. It gives me tools I need to eleviate my Arthritis, and my Menopausal aches and pains. Thank you, Tammy
You are a Masterpiece 2007-11-05
No matter what your brain style, no matter what type of anxiety or
emotion you may feel, it is all part of your intuitive type and its OK.
Instead of criticizing yourself, read this book and find out how it is
you really work and process information and see how it is part of your
GENIOUS!! This book is a must for western health care professionals,
counsellors, etc. but it is also a book for the total woman of the 21st
century because this is how health care is going to be talking. And if
you read this, you have to read Doc Schulz's book on Intuition. I've read
both and I feel empowered and I feel validated of all that is me.

a lot of good information here 2007-08-28
The writing style Mona Lisa uses feels somewhat academic. It's not a quick read, but it is worth the effort.
Using our own brain to make the mind our best friend 2007-03-16
Mona Lisa is a double doctor and still remains board-certified and licensed. This tells you alot about her integrity and credibility from the start. Female brains differ from woman to woman and the unique constructions are what Mona Lisa works with. This book really is about working with your own wisdom and harnesing your own brain power to access intuitive genious. No two people are the same. Intuition and the intellect are together a powerful suportive force. Follow Mona Lisa's instructions on your brain style and see what unfolds. This is a winner.
FASTEN YOUR SEATBELT! 2006-10-15
Exhilerating and fast-paced with life changing information contained in each paragraph on every page. Mona Lisa Schultz has a keen, marvelous, and wicked sense of humor that radiates healing energy from cover to cover. I look forward to reading it again and remembering even MORE after implementing her plan for menopausal memory loss and improving attention span. I highly recommend this transformational book.
To long LIFE! 2006-04-20
Such a unique approach to life. Loved it. Yes, using our inner voice/intuition brings us closer to long-term physical and emotional health.
Also a good addition are great services such as the Health Club for the Mind Agogus.com, which keep you mentally stimulated, healthy and confident. Now that we can live older, we have no other choice than to make use of all those great tools. To long LIFE!
