Join Curt Thompson, M.D., on an amazing journey to discover the surprising pathways for transformation hidden inside your own mind. Integrating new findings in neuroscience and attachment with Christian spirituality, Dr. Thompson reveals how it is possible to rewire your mind, altering your brain patterns and literally making you more like the person God intended you to be. Explaining discoveries about the brain in layman’s terms, he shows how you can be mentally transformed through spiritual practices, interaction with Scripture, and connections with other people. He also provides practical exercises to help you experience healing in areas where you’ve been struggling. Insightful and challenging, Anatomy of the Soul illustrates how learning about one of God’s most miraculous creations—your brain—can enrich your life, your relationships, and your impact on the world around you.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Curt Thompson, M.D., is a psychiatrist in private practice in Falls Church, Virginia. He graduated from Wright State University School of Medicine and completed his psychiatric residency at Temple University Hospital. He is board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. His clinical focus has been the treatment of adults, adolescents, and families. He is actively engaged in learning and education as he supervises clinical employees and facilitates ongoing education groups for patients and colleagues. Throughout his career, his main focus of clinical and research interest has been the integration of psychiatry, its associated disciplines, and Christian spirituality. He is a frequent speaker on the topic at workshops, conferences, and retreats.

For the past several years that interest has taken a more specific turn as he has gained expertise in the emerging field of interpersonal neurobiology. Thompson believes that the findings in interpersonal neurobiology reflect important tenets of Christian faith that enable us to reflect on, understand, and experience that same faith in fresh, trustworthy ways. He is now training other clinicians in the same material.

He and his wife, Phyllis, are the parents of two adult children and reside in Arlington, Virginia.

Well written, great balance of spirituality and neuroscience, until you hit a Rob Bell endorsement

Reviewed in Canada on January 24, 2020

If only the last few pages of the book weren't included. Up until I read the epilogue I was quite happy with my purchase. Dr. Thompson explores our spirituality through neuroscience, and it is a worthwhile read. I was quite enamoured with this book until I read his endorsement and recommendation of Rob Bell and his warped view of the Bible. The evaluation of attachment styles, methods to grow and integrate your brain, and conversations to help those aspects were all well written and researched. Thankfully, all truth is God's, and the book does have some great insights, just don't read the epilogue and it would be a five star book. Shame about the Rob Bell thing.

I didn't expect this book to be so insightful, inspiring and practical, but it is. The complicated design and function of the brain is explained in simple language.

So So good. Understanding the way your brain works, and how, if you allow yourself to be open, honest and in need of healing, then God works miracles by rewiring your brain.

I felt that the title was very misleading. A better title could be a Christian's guide to the brain.

Great book. I used it for my dissertation, it was very insightful. A good place to start if you do not know a lot about Neroscience, but are looking to apply some of the theory of it.

very interesting insights

I enjoyed Curt's medical approach at the beginning of the book and give me some really new ways of looking at why I do some behaviors. His relating my brain functions to my spirituality was very helpful and encouraged me to look more into using the spiritual disciplines and how they actually do change the way I think and react to situations. Very helpful and well worth the time.
