About this listen

A scientist's exploration into the mysteries of the human mind.

Neuroscience studies the brain, but what does science have to say about the mind? A full examination of what we mean by the term "mind" has traditionally been the province of philosophers, but what might neuroscience teach us about it? How does the mind differ from consciousness? And how do we know who we really are?

In this book, noted neuroscientist and New York Times bestselling author Daniel J. Siegel, M.D., brings his characteristic sensitivity and interdisciplinary background to this most perplexing of topics. He explores the nature of the who, how, what, why, and when of your mind - of your self - from the perspective of neuroscience. Mind is the essence of our true nature, our deepest sense of being alive, here, right now, in this moment. How science explains it is truly one of the most exciting journeys into knowledge we can take.

Transformation through clarity!

If you ever wondered if there could be a clear and consilientbreading of the teachings of ancient wisdom and the findings of modern science, neuroscience/brain science then you have found it here with Dr. Dan’s book on Mind. In my experience, this is the most brilliant reading and explanation of systems theory and the implications of the findings of modern science and their ancient roots in the teachings of the wisdom of liberation. I deeply appreciate and love Dr. Dan’s heart/mind and vision for us, all of us.

Deep and Thought Provoking

I truly enjoyed this book. If we, as a species could convert the theory of this book into common practice, then we will be living in paradise.

Good, but

Some good stuff, but it’s overly repetitive. The book could’ve been shorter and more concise if he didn’t repeat himself so much. Overly repetitive … overly repetitive … overly … well, you get the idea.

But what if mind/consciousness isn’t emergent, as he assumes, but instead is fundamental? Given that physicalism or materialism (the dominant paradigm in much of the mind/body debate, and obviously the author’s position) is continually being called into question, what happens when we see mind as fundamental? Wish he’d spoken to this question.

love

this book is amazing! I learned so much and feel a deeper connection with myself and our planet. I've never been great with Physics so it did get a bit complex for a little bit. I can say that I understand more than when I began this book! I recommend this to anyone and everyone looking for a better connection with our world.

A scientific view of wellness.

This book helps explain what influences the mind and offers a scientific view of wellness. It identifies links between science and spirituality. I highly recommend.

Too scientific

The subject was interesting but it was intended for academics. However if examples of real life situations were more maybe would have been good for normal people like me.
