Brilliant

I listened to this all the way through once and now I go back regularly to do the meditations from it that I’ve bookmarked. The ‘taking in the good’ meditations genuinely work for me, reducing the impact of upsetting memories. Also the sections on relaxation are really useful. It looks a bit woo-woo but it’s all backed up by science and is very well done.

Highly recommended

If like me, you are interested in neural plasticity, limbic training and mindfulness this is a must listen. I have only just discovered Rick Hanson's work and on the basis of this audio book have pre ordered his next book from Audible. What I found unique about this book is the very helpful explanations regarding neural plasticity and the excellent tips to help with rewiring the brain both during meditation practice and in everyday life, combined with short meditations. I have been using these methods and finding them extremely helpful. The only downside of this audio is that if you just wish to use the meditation practices you cannot access them seperately - each one comes with a commentary. However, this is a small criticism as it's an excellent, easily accessible listen.

Clever but approachable , a necessity

A necessity for modern day happiness. Fantastically simple and engaging, you are able to view your own behaviour with objectivity and therefore monitor your own behaviour and thinking because of this.

An exceptional walk through of meditation

This is a wonderful book which tells you about the changes that meditation can create in the brain, and it guides you through each meditation in turn.
It is up to us to use it regularly to create the change we desire

Life changing

I have purchased this audio book couple of years ago and still listen regularly to the meditations as they always calm me down and subsequently help with sleep and remind me about important practices in my life as focusing on the positive things happening as well as gratitude. Feeling this book helped massively to shift into different state of mind which is much kinder on all levels.
