The Emotional Life of Your Brain: How Its Unique Patterns Affect the Way You Think, Feel, and Live--and How You Can Change Them by Richard J. Davidson
2.0
Davidson shares about his research journey on the relationship between emotional styles and areas of the brain, and how our practices can change the neurotic connections in our brain in which direct us to a desired emotional styles.
I found it a waste of time because I thought there's some surprising findings when it's about the more you practise something, your neural connections become stronger in those areas.
Half of the 'strategies' to shift our emotional styles are about doing mindful meditations. I don't feel particularly inspired in any way.
Apart from raising my awareness of different emotional styles that could have been condensed into a chapter, that's about it.
This book is for you if you are interested in Davidson's research journey or deeply interested in neuroscience or don't know much about the study of emotions.
