[Summary] In “Buddha's Brain," two neuropsychologists, Rick Hanson and Richard Mendius, combine modern neuroscience with Buddhist teachings to explain how to achieve happiness, love, and wisdom. They explore the brain's functions related to suffering, stress, and anxiety, and how these are affected by emotions, thoughts, and relationships. They discuss practices like mindfulness and loving-kindness as ways to strengthen positive neural pathways and cultivate greater well-being. The book also includes a section on nutritional neurochemistry, suggesting how specific nutrients can support brain health and enhance the benefits of mindfulness practices.
