Weaving together ancient wisdom and scientific research, Dr Shauna Shapiro formulates the most potent practices for living a happy, meaningful life. Individually, these practices will help you sculpt neuropathways of clarity and calm. Collectively, they will help us live in a more connected, compassionate world.

The practice of mindfulness works. It's good for you. It strengthens immune function, reduces stress, improves sleep, and offers countless other benefits. It primes the mind for joy, it creates a roadmap for strengthening the brain's circuitry of deep calm, contentment and clarity.

Dr Shapiro offers the science and the practice of mindfulness, showing the reader how to rewire and re-balance their own individual negativity bias, create new pathways for curiosity, joy and focused attention.

This is ultimate training for the monkey mind.
