The Neurodharma of Love with Rick Hanson
Inspirations with
Lisa Garr
Most of our greatest joys and sorrows arise from our relationships with others. Our days are made up of a dance that alternates between relating with others and with ourselves. If this is indeed what consumes most of our day, wouldn’t it be great if we could learn to guide our minds to forgive, heal, and find greater happiness in our connection with others? In this fascinating interview, neuropsychologist Rick Hanson teaches how brain science, practical psychology, and Buddhist meditation practices are able to help us achieve greater intimacy and fulfillment in our relationships.
