<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Over the last 20 years, there has been growing attention in the Western world to mindfulness--paying attention to life in the present moment. A leading neurobiologist investigates the phenomenon of mindfulness as it impacts daily life, offering readers insight into personal relationships, emotional behavior, parenting, and work.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>From the author of the internationally-acclaimed best-selling text <em>The Developing Mind</em>, and esteemed leader and educator in the field of mental health, comes the first book ever to integrate neuroscience research with the ancient art of mindfulness. The result is a groundbreaking approach to not simply mental health, but life in general, which shows readers how personal awareness and attunement can actually stimulate emotional circuits in the brain, leading to a host of physiological benefits, including greater well-being, resilience, emotional balance, and improved cardiac and immune function. For clinicians and laypeople alike, Siegel's illuminating discussions of the power of the focused mind provide a wealth of ideas that can transform our lives and deepen our connections with others, and with ourselves.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[E]xtremely informative and helpful, providing deep insights into the process of mindful awareness....timely and useful.-- "Journal of Clinical Psychiatry"<br><br>Siegel has both a meticulous understanding of the roles of different parts of the brain and an intimate relationship with mindfulness. . . .
