Chapter 13: Growing, Wiring, Pruning: The Cultivation of Our Marvelous Mind.Chapter 12: It’s Never Too Late to Change Your Brain.Chapter 9: Practice: Intention Practice.Chapter 8: In Search of the Science-and a New Model of Mindfulness.“It is never too late to rewire your brain for positivity-for calm, clarity, and joy,”. It turns out that we are hardwired to be self-critical and negative! And this negativity is constantly undermining our experience of life. Shauna Shapiro brings alive the brain science behind why we feel the way we do-about ourselves, each other, and the world-and explains why we get stuck in thinking that doesn’t serve us. We live in a steady state of “not good enough.” It does not have to be this way. We judge ourselves for being no good at emptying our minds (as if one ever could) or compare ourselves with yogis who seem to have it all together. We have tried meditation and found it too difficult. Many of us yearn to feel a greater sense of inner calm, ease, joy, and purpose. “This brilliant book offers us both the science and practice of how self-kindness is the secret sauce of fulfillment, transformation, and joy.” -Lorin Roche, meditation teacher and author of The Radiance Sutras Discover the Transformative Effects of Being Kind to Yourself
