Research scientist & author, Richard Davidson, whose prolific neuroscience work studying meditation and the brain at the Center for Investigating Healthy Minds… talks about his new groundbreaking book entitled, “The Emotional Life of Your Brain”, co-authored with Sharon Begley. This work broadens our understanding of how the brain and emotions work- why each of us responds so differently to the same life events and what we can do to change and improve our emotional lives.
He and his research team show just why and how we are all so different. Just as we all have our own DNA, so we each have our own emotional ‘style’ depending on our individual levels of dimensions like resilience, outlook, self-awareness, etc. Helping us to recognize our own emotional style, Davidson also shows how our brain patterns can change over our lives – and, through his fascinating experiments, what we can do to improve our emotional responses through contemplative practices like meditation.
