CIHM introduces Founder Davidson’s new book, ‘The Emotional Life of Your Brain’
Due out March 1, 2012, Founder Davidson’s new book will offer readers a new model for understanding our emotions – their origins, their power and their malleability.
In his book, co-authored with well-known science writer and editor Sharon Begley, Davidson outlines six basic emotional styles, each based upon neuroscientific evidence, that define our personality - resilience, outlook, social intuition, self-awareness, sensitivity to context and attention. He then illuminates our brain's ability to change and how simple strategies can help people shift along the continuum of each style.
Echoed in the mission and research here at CIHM, Davidson hopes readers come away understanding that they are the true architects of their Emotional Style. And like CIHM, Davidson’s book reinforces that positive qualities of mind – compassion, happiness and attention – are within our mental grasp and inherent skills that we all can learn.
