More about "The Brain at Rest"
We are constantly told to make the most of every precious moment - but when we let our brains rest and our minds wander, something magical happens...
In The Brain at Rest, Dr Joseph Jebelli shares the transformative neuroscience that shows why doing nothing will change your life for the better. Drawing on ground-breaking new research, you will learn how to achieve a happier, healthier and more balanced life.
Why we chose it: “Offers practical, science-backed solutions for reclaiming your life.” - Nir Eyal
Inspired by our monthly non-fiction reads, our mix of part cocktail party, part creative classroom is a recipe that builds your reading habit while connecting with like minded people.

Your hosts for the evening
Paige Eager
Paige joined Rebel Book Club in London in July 2018. She loves how RBC encourages her to explore new subjects and perspectives she might not have discovered otherwise.
After moving across the pond and missing the events and connections she made with fellow RBC'ers, she wanted to recreate that experience in vibrant Vancouver.
Top RBC Reads:
- Bad Blood, by John Carreyrou
- Life 3.0, by Max Tegmark

Amirali Sharifian
Amirali is a programming language designer for AI computers. Having made Vancouver his home, he found himself missing a like-minded community—one that thrives on curiosity, deep conversations, and a shared passion for learning. Rebel Book Club offers just that, and Amirali is excited to help grow a space where diverse perspectives come together to challenge ideas and expand horizons.
Amirali's nonfiction recommendations:
- The User Illusion: Cutting Consciousness Down to Size, by "Tor Nørretranders"
- Factfulness, by Hans Rosling
