"Solidly grounded in the latest neuroscientific research, and supported by a deep understanding of contemplative practice, this book is accessible, compelling, and profound--a crystallization of practical wisdom!" --Philip David Zelazo, PhD, Nancy M. and John E. Lindahl Professor at the Institute of Child Development, University of Minnesota

Synopsis
If you change your brain, you can change your life. Great teachers like the Buddha, Jesus, Moses, Mohammed, and Gandhi were all born with brains built essentially like anyone else's--and then they changed their brains in ways that changed the world. Science is now revealing how the flow of thoughts actually sculpts the brain, and more and more, we are learning that it's possible to strengthen positive brain states. By combining breakthroughs in neuroscience with insights from thousands of years of mindfulness practice, you too can use your mind to shape your brain for greater happiness, love, and wisdom. Buddha's Brain draws on the latest research to show how to stimulate your brain for more fulfilling relationships, a deeper spiritual life, and a greater sense of inner confidence and worth. Using guided meditations and mindfulness exercises, you'll learn how to activate the brain states of calm, joy, and compassion instead of worry, sorrow, and anger. Most importantly, you will foster positive psychological growth that will literally change the way you live in your day-to-day life. This book presents an unprecedented intersection of psychology, neurology, and contemplative practice, and is filled with practical tools and skills that you can use every day to tap the unused potential of your brain and rewire it over time for greater well-being and peace of mind., In Buddha's Brain, a clinical psychologist and a senior neurologist explain how the brain benefits from contemplative practice and show readers how to develop greater happiness, love, and wisdom by drawing from breakthroughs in modern neuroscience.

    Calming and peaceful energy

    Arrived in a few days very well wrapped. Budda has a calming energy, and a slight smile. I keep it nearby when doing yoga practice. A good purchase

  • Read a little, learn a lot

    Expand your horizons and learn how to be a better person with little effort. A must read for close minded conservatives. Teach how to be a compassionate human being instead of a bigoted bitter person.

  • This goes well with psychologists!

    For those who interest themselves in positive psychology, I would recommend this book to see how neuroscience can be used to talk about positive aspects of behavior and mental processes.

  • Awesome!

    My book came in 4 days early and it’s practically in like new condition except for a few highlighting marks in the first 13 pages. Apart from that, pages are not damaged and front and back cover are intact.
