Seven Deadly Sins : The Biology of Being Human. by Leschziner, Guy.;
Gluttony. Greed. Sloth. Pride. Envy. Lust. Wrath. These are The Seven Deadly Sins, the vices of humankind that define immorality. But do these sins really represent moral failings, or are they important biological functions that humans need to survive? Instead of being acts of immorality, are they just a result of how our bodies, our psyches, and our brains are wired? In 'Seven Deadly Sins', Guy Leschziner explores the underlying nature of the seven deadly sins, their neuroscientific and psychological basis, and their origin in our genes.Library Bound Incorporated

Clearing emotional clutter : mindfulness practices for letting go of what's blocking your fulfillment and transformation / by Altman, Don,1950-;
Includes bibliographical references."Many have pointed out the psychological benefits of clearing out the clutter in our surroundings. But what do we do with our emotional clutter - the psychological versions of the jam-packed closet or impenetrable garage? As we shut away and try to hide old pains and traumas we create toxic patterns. Author Donald Altman uses modern neuroscience to outline how habits and patterns can be modified with only a few minutes of attention daily. Altman first helps readers realize what their baggage consists of and how to transform or jettison it. He then shows how to avoid accumulating new emotional clutter. With these practices, readers address their pasts, learn to deal with the present, and cultivate the best possible futures for themselves"--Provided by publisher.LSC
