Cinquenta práticas simples, porém poderosas, para relacionamentos felizes, duradouros e satisfatórios. Os relacionamentos costumam ser a parte mais importante da vida de uma pessoa. Porém, muitas vezes são estressantes e frustrantes, ou apenas estranhos, distantes e isolados. Sentimos o peso das coisas que não foram ditas, das necessidades que não foram atendidas e dos conflitos que não foram resolvidos. É fácil se sentir sem saída. Porém, na verdade, novas pesquisas mostram que você constrói seus relacionamentos todos os dias com suas atitudes e palavras, o que fornece para você a capacidade de começar a melhorá-los agora. Você tem o poder de tornar melhor todos os seus relacionamentos apenas mudando coisas simples que começam dentro de você. "Compostos por amor e uma profunda preocupação pela humanidade, estes breves textos estão repletos de mensagens simples que podem ajudar nossas vidas, de dentro para fora, a florescer e prosperar."— Dr. Daniel J. Siegel, autor de lntraconectodos, best-seller do New York Times

Teoria e pratica si fondono perfettamente in questo libro che è di per sé un toccasana per il nostro benessere psicologico e mentale. Molti di noi si sentono bloccati, se non addirittura intrappolati, nelle relazioni. Magari con un collega difficile o un coinquilino esasperante, con un cogenitore poco collaborativo, un parente disaffezionato, un capo sempre pronto a criticare o un coniuge disamorato. Con parole che infondono grande speranza, Rick Hanson ci mostra in modo semplice e immediato i passi che sono in nostro potere per trovare sostegno e felicità nelle relazioni, e per renderle migliori. Sono nate con questo intento le 50 lezioni pratiche di resilienza raccolte in questo libro, da consultare e seguire secondo le nostre personali esigenze. Ricche di consigli e spunti originali, ci indicheranno la strada per comunicare con efficacia in contesti di ogni tipo, farci valere, esprimere i nostri sentimenti più profondi, restare fuori dai litigi sterili, dire (e ottenere) ciò che vogliamo, ridimensionare le relazioni a seconda delle necessità, perdonare gli altri e noi stessi, prendere le cose meno sul personale, sentirci davvero accuditi.

Zu wahrer Verbundenheit mit sich selbst und anderen finden Beziehungen sind der wichtigste Aspekt im Leben eines jeden Menschen. Doch sie können auch oft anstrengend, enttäuschend oder schwierig sein. Die aktuelle Forschung zeigt, dass wir unsere Beziehungen mit Gedanken und Worten aufbauen. Das verleiht uns die Möglichkeit sie zu verbessern – solange wir wissen wie. New-York-Times Bestsellerautor Dr. Rick Hanson bietet uns in seinem neuen Buch auf seine warmherzige und anschauliche Art praktische Hilfsmittel, um glückliche, dauerhafte und erfüllte Beziehungen aller Art zu pflegen: zu Hause und in der Arbeit, mit der Familie und Freunden, ja, selbst mit herausfordernden Zeitgenossen. Die 50 wirkungsvollen Lektionen, basierend auf den neuesten Erkenntnissen aus der Neurowissenschaft und klinischen Psychologie, sind geprägt von der Praxis der Achtsamkeit.

“50 simple, powerful ways to improve your relationships at home and at work” (Lori Gottlieb, author of Maybe You Should Talk To Someone), based on the latest findings in neuroscience, mindfulness, and positive psychology—by the New York Times bestselling author of Neurodharma and Resilient Relationships are usually the most important part of a person’s life. But they’re often stressful and frustrating, or simply awkward, distant, and lonely. We feel the weight of things unsaid, needs unmet, conflicts unresolved. It’s easy to feel stuck. But actually, new research shows that you create your relationships every day with the things you do and say, which gives you the ability to start improving them now. You have the power to make all your relationships better just by making simple changes that start inside yourself. New York Times bestselling author of Buddha’s Brain and Hardwiring Happiness, Rick Hanson, PhD, brings his trademark warmth and clarity to Making Great Relationships, a comprehensive guide to fostering healthy, effective, and fulfilling relationships of all kinds: at home and at work, with family and friends, and with people who are challenging. As a psychologist, couples and family counselor, husband, and father, Dr. Hanson has learned what makes relationships go badly and what you can do to make them go better. Grounded in brain science and clinical psychology, and informed by contemplative wisdom, Making Great Relationships offers fifty fundamental skills, including: • How to convince yourself that you truly deserve to be treated well • How to communicate effectively in all kinds of settings • How to stay centered so that conflict doesn’t rattle you so deeply • How to see the good in others (even when they make it difficult) • How to set and maintain healthy boundaries or resize relationships as needed • How to express your needs so that they are more likely to be fulfilled With these fifty simple yet powerful practices, you can handle conflicts, repair misunderstandings, get treated better, deepen a romantic partnership, be at peace with others, and give the love that you have in your heart. Making Great Relationships will teach you how to relate better than ever with all the people in your life.

Voor wie denkt dat mindfulness moeilijk is, is er nu ''Eén ding tegelijk''. Bestsellerauteur Rick Hanson geeft in dit handzame boek eenvoudige oefeningen die goed in het dagelijks leven in te passen zijn. Ze beschermen tegen stress, verbeteren de stemming en versterken het brein. De oefeningen zijn gegroepeerd rond thema''s als ''goed voor jezelf zorgen'', ''van het leven genieten zoals het is'', ''beter functioneren thuis en op het werk'' en ''vrede sluiten met je emoties''. Rust in je hoofd vinden was nog nooit zo eenvoudig.

When anxiety and stress feel too intense to handle, readers need quick, in-the-moment relief—not psychological jargon. Written by a dream team of mental health experts and grounded in evidence-based therapy, The Anxiety First Aid Kit offers simple tools for triaging stress and anxiety in a crisis.

Wir leben in stürmischen Zeiten: von der globalen Situation bis hin zu unserer seelischen Balance in einem komplizierten Alltag. Nachhaltig begegnen können wir diesen Herausforderungen, indem wir innere Stärken wie Mitgefühl, Dankbarkeit und Entschlossenheit entwickeln - die Schlüssel zu Resilienz und anhaltendem Wohlbefinden in einer sich verändernden Welt. Resilienz bedeutet weit mehr, als Widrigkeiten aller Art zu ertragen. Wir brauchen Resilienz jeden Tag, um Kinder aufzuziehen, unserem Beruf nachzugehen, mit Stress zurechtzukommen, gesundheitliche Probleme zu bewältigen, gute Beziehungen mit anderen Menschen aufzubauen, von alten Schmerzen zu genesen - oder manchmal, um einfach weiterzumachen. Mit seiner einmaligen Verbindung aus Neurobiologie, Achtsamkeit und positiver Psychologie zeigt Rick Hanson, wie Sie die Negativitätstendenz des Gehirns bewältigen: Lassen Sie schmerzvolle Gedanken und Gefühle los und ersetzen Sie sie durch Selbstmitgefühl, Selbstwertgefühl, Freude und inneren Frieden. Dann werden Sie - ganz gleich, was das Leben für Sie bereithält - besser in der Lage sein, sich weniger gestresst zu fühlen, gute Entscheidungen zu treffen und ruhig und zentriert zu bleiben.

LOS ANGELES TIMES BESTSELLER • “An easy-to-follow road map for creating day-to-day inner peace in today’s increasingly complex world.”—Lori Gottlieb, MFT, New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone Throughout history, people have sought the heights of human potential—to become as wise and strong, happy and loving, as any person can ever be. And now recent science is revealing how these remarkable ways of being are based on equally remarkable changes in our own nervous system, making them more attainable than ever before. In Neurodharma, the follow-up to his classic Buddha’s Brain, New York Times bestselling author Rick Hanson, PhD, not only explores the new neuroscience of awakening but also offers a bold yet plausible plan for reverse-engineering peak experiences, sense of oneness, and even enlightenment itself. And he does so with his trademark blend of solid science and warm encouragement, guiding you along this high-reaching path with good humor, accessible tools, and personal examples. A groundbreaking yet practical book, Neurodharma shares seven practices for strengthening the neural circuitry of profound contentment and inner peace—qualities that offer essential support in everyday life while also supporting the exploration of the most radical reaches of human consciousness. Step by step, this book explains how to apply these insights in order to cultivate unshakable presence of mind, a courageous heart, and serenity in a changing world. The breakthroughs of the great teachers are not reserved for the chosen few. Dr. Hanson shows how we can embody them ourselves in daily life to handle stress, heal old pain, feel at ease with others, and rest in the sense of our natural goodness. The Buddha didn’t use an MRI to become enlightened. Still, 2,500 years after he walked the dusty roads of northern India, neuroscientists are discovering the mechanisms of the brain that underpin the Buddha’s penetrating analysis of the mind. With deep research, stories, guided meditations, examples, and applications, Dr. Hanson offers a fascinating, inspiring vision of who we can be—and an effective path for fulfilling this wonderful possibility.

Rick Hanson laat in ''Veerkracht'' zien dat innerlijke krachtbronnen als lef, dankbaarheid en mededogen onmisbaar zijn in een wereld zonder zekerheden. Daarmee ontwikkelen we de veerkracht, waarmee we onze kinderen grootbrengen, ons werk doen, omgaan met stress, problemen oplossen en oude wonden genezen. Met zijn kenmerkende mix van neurowetenschap, mindfulness en positieve psychologie toont Rick Hanson hoe we twaalf innerlijke vermogens kunnen ontwikkelen en opnemen in ons zenuwstelsel. Hierdoor voelen we ons minder gestrest, kunnen we uitdagingen met vertrouwen aangaan en blijven we rustig in tegenspoed.

Hoe word je gelukkig op eigen kracht? Volgens neuropsycholoog en meditatieleraar Rick Hanson kan je leren om meer tevreden, gelukkiger en blijer (met jezelf) te zijn. Zijn nieuwste boek `Geheugen voor geluk helpt je hierbij. Ons brein onthoudt van nature negatieve gevoelens en ervaringen, terwijl de hersenen positieve gevoelens juist uitwissen. Dit is tijdens de evolutie zo gegroeid. In de oertijd moest het brein namelijk zo werken om de mens voor gevaar te waarschuwen. Maar in deze tijd van welvaart en voorspoed is dat totaal overbodig. Praktische oefeningen voor een gelukkig(er) leven In `Geheugen voor geluk geeft Rick Hanson oefeningen om ons brein te herprogrammeren: positieve gevoelens en ervaringen blijven er langer door hangen, negatieve ervaringen verdwijnen. Kortom: Er zijn successen om te vieren en overwinningen om ons te herinneren. Eerder verschenen van Rick Hanson - `Boeddha s brein; Hoe mindfulness je hersens en je leven kan veranderen'' - ''Eén ding tegelijk; 52 eenvoudige oefeningen voor een boeddhabrein''

Gehirnstrukturen positiv verändern Der Neuropsychologe Dr. Rick Hanson beschäftigt sich mit dem Zusammenwirken von Achtsamkeit, Hirnforschung und Psychologie. Was wir denken und fühlen hat Einfluss auf die Struktur unseres Gehirns. In seinem Bestseller »Das Gehirn eines Buddha« erklärt er die Grundlagen seines neurowissenschaftlichen Ansatzes. In seinem neuen Buch steht die tägliche Praxis im Vordergrund. Hanson stellt vor allem drei Wege vor zu heilen und zu wachsen: Achtsamkeit, das Loslassen problembehafteter Ereignisse und Strukturen und das Ersetzen dieser durch positive Gedanken, Erfahrungen und Emotionen.

De neurowetenschap van mindfulness. Met oefeningen en tips voor meer rust en vreugde Hoe krijgen we meer zelfvertrouwen en een rijker leven? Dat leert ons de Amerikaanse neuropsycholoog en meditatieleraar Rick Hanson aan de hand van eenvoudige meditatieoefeningen en praktische tips, ontleend aan de oude boeddhistische traditie. Hij leert hoe we bepaalde delen van de hersenen kunnen stimuleren die rust, levensvreugde en compassie brengen in plaats van gepieker, verdriet en woede. Hanson toetste zijn oefeningen en tips aan de laatste inzichten uit de hersenwetenschappen.

You’ve heard the expression, “It’s the little things that count.” Research has shown that little daily practices can change the way your brain works, too. This book offers simple brain-training practices you can do every day to protect against stress, lift your mood, and find greater emotional resilience. Just One Thing is a treasure chest of over fifty practices created specifically to deepen your sense of well-being and unconditional happiness. Just one practice each day can help you: Be good to yourself Enjoy life as it is Build on your strengths Be more effective at home and work Make peace with your emotions

Jesus, Moses, Mohammed, Gandhi, and the Buddha all had brains built essentially like anyone else''s, yet they were able to harness their thoughts and shape their patterns of thinking in ways that changed history. With new breakthroughs in modern neuroscience and the wisdom of thousands of years of contemplative practice, it is possible for us to shape our own thoughts in a similar way for greater happiness, love, compassion, and wisdom. Buddha''s Brain joins the forces of modern neuroscience with ancient contemplative teachings to show readers how they can work toward greater emotional well-being, healthier relationships, more effective actions, and deepened religious and spiritual understanding. This book will explain how the core elements of both psychological well-being and religious or spiritual life-virtue, mindfulness, and wisdom-are based in the core functions of the brain: regulating, learning, and valuing. Readers will also learn practical ways to apply this information, as the book offers many exercises they can do to tap the unused potential of the brain and rewire it over time for greater peace and well-being.
