Healing Emotions: Conversations with the Dalai Lama on Mindfulness, Emotions, and Health (edit title)

Shelfari edited the description of Healing Emotions: Conversations with the Dalai Lama on Mindfulness, Emotions, and Health Thursday, August 6 2009.

• Can the mind heal the body? The Buddhist tradition says yes—and now many Western scientists are beginning to agree. Healing Emotions is the record of an extraordinary series of encounters between the Dalai Lama and prominent Western psychologists, physicians, and meditation teachers that sheds new light on the mind-body connection. Topics include: compassion as medicine; the nature of consciousness; self-esteem; and the meeting points of mind, body, and spirit. This edition contains a new foreword by the editor.

• "LEE YEARLEY introduces the conversation with a philosophical and ethical strand, one that becomes tightly woven into the deliberation as it continues."
