Editorial Review: Product Description: Most of us who meditate have probably wondered, "Is this really helping me?" On The Mindful Brain, the co-director of UCLA's Mindful Awareness Research Center offers conclusive evidence that it does, and why meditation can become the single greatest source of equilibrium and clarity in your life. Weaving new scientific studies with insights from his direct experience, Daniel J. Siegel presents a four-CD audio course to help listeners understand the profound influence that a focused mind offers for physical, mental, and social well-being. Listeners join this pioneer of the neurobiology of human consciousness to explore: * How mind training and the long-term states it creates radically affect our physiology and inner life * Attunement and mindfulness: how meditation transforms not only you, but your friends, co-workers, and even entire communities * Curiosity, Openness, Acceptance, and Love--the extraordinary effects of experiencing these four essential qualities simultaneously * How to foster greater emotional balance, physical health, body-based empathy, and deeper self-understanding The Mindful Brain is an enlightening program for clinicians, therapists, educators, and anyone interested in the powerful effects of mindful living.
