Lisa Miller Bücher

Jeder von uns verfügt über die Ressourcen, um tiefen inneren Frieden zu empfinden, sich verbunden zu fühlen und ein sinnerfülltes Leben führen. Denn Spiritualität ist von Geburt an im Gehirn angelegt. Diese bahnbrechende Erkenntnis verdanken wir Lisa Miller, Neurowissenschaftlerin, Psychologin und Professorin an der Columbia University: Erstmals konnte sie wissenschaftlich nachweisen, in welchem Gehirn-Areal die Gefühle von Einssein und Erwachen lokalisiert sind und auf welche faszinierende Weise Gene und Neurotransmitter hierbei zusammenspielen. Ganz praktisch zeigt sie, wie sich dieses Areal aktivieren lässt, um unser ureigenes spirituelles Potenzial voll auszuschöpfen – für Resilienz, Zuversicht und Freude.

'We can live chasing goals and rewards, lost in worries and regrets. Or we can awaken to the true fabric of the world, an evolving tapestry that we both behold and help to create, in which every thread matters and no strand stands alone' Lisa Miller has spent decades researching the effects of spirituality on the brain. In this book she draws on her clinical experience and award-winning research to show how an active spiritual life can transform our physical and psychological wellbeing. Bringing scientific rigour to the most intangible aspect of our lives, Miller offers insights into the neurological basis for the increased resilience that comes with nurturing spirituality and highlights its measurable positive effects- decreasing the likelihood of depression and substance abuse, and shifting the course of recovery in many other clinical settings. Woven throughout is Miller's personal story of how, while confronting her own challenges, her professional pragmatism gave way to a greater appreciation of insights that are important to so many people and yet so often dismissed as unscientific. Brimming with inspiration and compassion, this landmark book will revolutionize your understanding of spirituality, mental health and how we find meaning and purpose in life.
