FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Find clarity, happiness and resilience with this stunning scientific evidence that shows how, in just eight weeks, you can produce measurable changes in your brain.We all know that our brains are capable of rewiring themselves. But what science is now showing is that this neural plasticity isnt just happening over the course of months or years. Its occurring quickly, and can remodel entire networks in the brain over time. In Bliss Brain, famed researcher Dawson Church digs deep into leading-edge research and finds stunning evidence of rapid and radical brain change. In just 8 weeks of practice, 12 minutes a day, using the right techniques, we can produce measurable changes in our brains.When we cultivate pleasurable flow states regularly, they become traits. We dont just feel more blissful as a temporary experience; the changes are literally hard-wired into our brains, becoming stable and enduring personality traits.The startling conclusions of Churchs research shows that neural remodelling goes much further than scientists have previously understood. In meditation adepts, stress circuits begin to shrivel. Simultaneously, the Enlightenment Circuit - associated with joy, compassion, productivity, creativity and equanimity - expands.Church shows how during deep meditation, the seven neurochemicals of ecstasy are released in our brains. These include anandamide, a neurotransmitter thats been named the bliss molecule because it mimics the effects of THC, the active ingredient in cannabis. Meditation boosts serotonin and dopamine; the first is an analog of psilocybin, the second of cocaine. Church shows how cultivating elevated emotional states literally produces a self-induced high.While writing Bliss Brain, Church went through a series of disasters, including escaping seconds ahead of a California wildfire that consumed his home and office and claimed 22 lives. A painful injury and financial disaster followed. Through it all, Church steadily practiced the techniques of Bliss Brain while teaching them to thousands of other people. This book weaves his story of resilience into the fabric of neuroscience, producing a fascinating picture of just how happy we can make our brains, no matter the odds.

Review "This book is a masterwork by a meditation adept who is also a scientist. Dawson captivates the reader with unforgettable stories and leading-edge neuroscience that open the mind, warm the heart, and elevate the spirit. His eloquent descriptions of meditative ecstasy and fact-based explanations of what brings it about provide big-picture understanding of the evolution of consciousness. This book shines with lucidity and caring. It most convincingly beckons readers to the heights of human awareness."~ Judith Pennington, president, Institute for the Awakened Mind"This book is so superior to the dozens of popular books on meditation Ive seen over the years that I want to shout about it from the rooftops! It will make a beautiful difference in peoples lives! I opened it with the skepticism that its ambitious title invites, and I completed it surprised by how many fascinating insights Id come to about the topic of bliss brain. At a minimum, readers who sense the potential benefits of meditation but feel they dont have a sustainable bridge into its practice will have lost that excuse. Dawson Church has brilliantly synthesized the vast literature on the neural, behavioral, lifestyle, and subjective benefits of meditation. He then systematically applies the principles derived from this analysis and from the fruits of his 50-year journey as a practicing and sometimes struggling meditator in formulating a disarmingly simple program. But unlike most self-help programs, this one has been tested scientifically, and it reliably brings participants into states of consciousness and neurochemistry that previously required years of long, diligent practice. Bliss Brain is a potent and urgently needed antidote to a culture in turmoil."~ David Feinstein, PhD, co-author of The Energies of Love"Science and love embrace in this incredible book. Its more than a clear and inspiring description of how radically our brains change in response to spiritual experiences; it shows us how to master the evolutionary quirks that sidetrack us in our quest for enlightenment. From one of todays most brilliant scientists and accomplished authors, Bliss Brain is a gift to us all."~ Dianne Morrison, president, Effective Action Consulting"This brilliant book is a road map for turning tragedy into bliss. In my many years of knowing Dawson Church, Ive found him to be a beacon of positivity and joy, a living example of the values he teaches. His research into how meditation activates the happiness centers of the brain puts Bliss Brain within the reach of everyone. Dawson shows how you can grow resilience even in the face of great personal loss, using adversity to remodel your brain for bliss. This book will rock your world, and show you that happiness is truly achievable, no matter how far away it seems today."~ Lisa Garr, host of The Aware Show"Science has known for decades that the brain is changed by consciousness. Until now, weve never before had a truly practical guide showing how to put this knowledge to work. This comprehensive and accessible book integrates research from a dozen scientific fields and translates it for our everyday lives. It clearly shows us how to apply neural plasticity while giving us an evidence-based path to creating a happy, peaceful and resourceful brain. Its a must read."~ Marilyn Schlitz, PhD, Dean of Transpersonal Psychology,Sofia University"Stunning! Bliss Brain is a masterpiece of science, inspiration and possibility; opening doors to each one of us about whats possible in our lives and unraveling the true meaning of human potential. Ill be reading this again and again and sharing it with those I love!"~ Nick Ortner, author of The Tapping Solution"As The Secret meets the scientist in Dawsons work, the boundaries of what youve believed possible will be stretched far beyond your existing picture of reality."~ Jack Canfield, co-author of #1 New York Times best-selling Chicken Soup® series and featured teacher in The Secret"The pace of change and the pressure to perform often leads professionals to the edge of burnout.

It leads to massive increases in productivity, creativity, happiness, and problem solving ability. The techniques Dawson offers us provide us with the leverage to address the challenges confronting organizations and society. These are the secrets that make companies and teams thrive, both personally and professionally."~ Dr. Ivan Misner, founder of BNI and New York Times best-selling author"Accumulating evidence suggests that meditation training yields improved emotional regulation and enduring changes in brain function, even outside meditation sessions, both in clinical and non-clinical populations. Dawson Church succinctly reviews all the neural evidence to date in this comprehensive yet relatable book, and shows how all of us can achieve states of bliss through meditation. Beautifully interwoven is his own story of loss and heartache, and recovery and resilience. This is a MUST read for everyone from all walks of life."~ Associate Professor Peta Stapleton, PhD, author of The Science Behind Tapping"Four billion years of evolution have conditioned us to make safety & survival our brains default Operating System. But now were in the midst of an epoch change in which Enlightenment is emerging as the new Operating System. Were in the early stages of that transition and Bliss Brainis the catalyst we need to speed up the process.
