Mindsight - Mindsight

"The latest results of brain research greatly contribute to our understanding of the deeper connections of our psychological functioning. Thanks to scientific studies, we can now explain internal experiences that were previously difficult to understand, such as why it is difficult for us to get rid of our irrational fears or an upsetting memory; why we get divorced sometimes feeling depressed or irritable for seemingly no reason; why it's so hard to get rid of certain behaviors that we'd like to leave behind; why we run into almost the same conflicts over and over again. Daniel J. Siegel is the author of several popular books, and he's equally at home on how the brain works, in the field of psychology and child-rearing. This work of his not only provides important clues to avoid the traps listed above, but also shows the way to a fuller and happier life. The methods presented to us, which are largely based on mindfulness we can also apply it in our country. Reading the book, we will have many aha experiences, and maybe we will recognize ourselves in one of the stories presented. Siegel creates a new synthesis in our psychological knowledge while bringing the world of psychotherapy close to the reader. Following the described cases, we get an idea of how a therapist works, what a therapeutic relationship based on acceptance and empathy is like."
