Download or read book Altered Traits written by Daniel Goleman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two New York Times–bestselling authors unveil new research showing what meditation can really do for the brain. In the last twenty years, meditation and mindfulness have gone from being kind of cool to becoming an omnipresent Band-Aid for fixing everything from your weight to your relationship to your achievement level. Unveiling here the kind of cutting-edge research that has made them giants in their fields, Daniel Goleman and Richard Davidson show us the truth about what meditation can really do for us, as well as exactly how to get the most out of it. Sweeping away common misconceptions and neuromythology to open readers’ eyes to the ways data has been distorted to sell mind-training methods, the authors demonstrate that beyond the pleasant states mental exercises can produce, the real payoffs are the lasting personality traits that can result. But short daily doses will not get us to the highest level of lasting positive change—even if we continue for years—without specific additions. More than sheer hours, we need smart practice, including crucial ingredients such as targeted feedback from a master teacher and a more spacious, less attached view of the self, all of which are missing in widespread versions of mind training. The authors also reveal the latest data from Davidson’s own lab that point to a new methodology for developing a broader array of mind-training methods with larger implications for how we can derive the greatest benefits from the practice. Exciting, compelling, and grounded in new research, this is one of those rare books that has the power to change us at the deepest level.

Download or read book The Diseases of Personality written by Th?odule Ribot and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 1887-01-01 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By '' person " in psychological language we under- stand generally the individual, as clearly conscious of itself, and acting accordingly : it is the highest form of individuality. To explain this attribute, which it reserves exclusively for man, metaphysical psychology is satisfied with the hypothesis of an ego, absolutely one, simple, and identical. Unfortunately, however, this is only illusive clearness and a semblance of solu- tion. Unless we attribute to this ego a supernatural origin, it will be necessary to explain how it is born, and from what lower form it proceeds. Accordingly, experimental psychology must propound the problem differently, and treat it by different methods. Experi- mental psychology learns from natural scientists that in the majority of cases it is difficult even to establish the characteristics of individuality, which are far less complex than those of personality. Hence it mistrusts simple solutions, and, far from regarding the question as solved at the outset, it looks for the solution at the close of its researches, as the result of long and labor- ious investigations. Therefore, it is but natural that the representatives of the old school, slightly be- wildered at the situation, should accuse the adherents
