Recent scientific breakthroughs have revealed that what we think and feel changes the brain. Dr Rick Hanson's Hardwiring Happiness is the first book to show how to transform the simple positive experiences of daily life into neural structures that promote lasting health, contentment, love and inner peace. To keep our ancestors alive, our brain evolved a 'negativity bias', which allows positive experiences to flow through it like water through a sieve. Yet positive experiences are the building blocks necessary for health, happiness and fulfilling relationships. Drawing on neuroscience and wisdom from the contemplative traditions, Hardwiring Happiness shows us how to overcome that negativity bias and get those good experiences into the brain where it can use them. Revolutionary yet profoundly practical, this important book offers us the tools we need to heal old wounds, increase our motivation, handle stress, develop our inner resources and, ultimately, transform our lives.
