Description
"Moving effortlessly between science and scripture, Kingsland charts Siddhartha?s spiritual journey and explains how new research by leading neuroscientists and clinical psychologists?many of whom are interviewed in these pages?suggests that mindfulness practice reconfigures our brains to make us sharper, smarter, healthier, and happier, and that it can help treat stress, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, hypertension, and substance abuse. There have even been hints that meditation can enhance immune function, slow cellular aging, and keep dementia at bay. Featuring six guided meditations, Siddhartha?s Brain is a practical and inspiring odyssey of mind and spirit."--Amazon.com.
