There is an unvisited oasis inside the brain – that neuroscience has begun to chart for those interested in deeper pools to scoop out new solutions. Daniel Siegel – who helps to direct the Mindful Awareness research Center at UCLA, calls it The Mindful Brain in his latest book … and claims it’s available to those interested in cultivating more well-being.
Siegel shows how we transform the brain to promote well being.
Science may be still bringing together what we know and what we’ve yet to learn about mindful awareness – yet those who follow the monthly steps into this uncharted territory are coming back with stories that change lives.
Siegel speculates that mindful awareness engages parts of the brain in ways that lead to permanent neurological changes. His research shows why….
1. Some people become victims while others live impossible dreams
2. A gray sky to one person becomes a day for friendships and fun for another
3. Conflict to some workplaces offers a challenge to engage more voices in another
In earlier posts we discussed the plasticity to show how it works and how we’re more at the helm of choices for well-being in spite of problems … than most people realize. What do you think?
Ellen, you share great solution strategies everyday right here on your blog that add feet to the science.
When is your next book coming out?
