Neurodharma : new science, ancient wisdom, and seven practices of the highest happiness / by Hanson, Rick(Psychologist),author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Building on his classic bestseller Buddha's Brain, New York Times bestselling author and senior fellow of the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley Rick Hanson uses his Buddhist analysis of the mind as a roadmap for strengthening the neural circuitry of deep calm, contentment, kindness, and wisdom--qualities we all need to succeed in the face of adversity. Most books about transformations of consciousness are theoretical or religious, typically full of jargon, pep talks, and calls to believe on faith alone. Instead, this is a book of practice, immediately actionable with simple, powerful guided meditations--and despite this grounded approach, its promise is radically life-changing. This book is nothing short of a path to transcendence, a method for liberating the mind and heart, discovering freedom from suffering, and engaging life with a kind heart and inner peace. A step-by-step path of practical ideas and tools, Dr. Hanson guides readers with his usual encouragement, good humor, and personal examples"--

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
