Episode Two Hundred and Twenty Three – On Override: My Quest To Go Beyond Brain Training And Take Control Of My Mind

In her new book “Override: My Quest to go Beyond Brain Training and Take Control of my Mind“, science journalist Caroline Williams went off on a world-wide mission to find the answer.
