Practical Neuroscience for Transformation

For the first time, we now have scientific evidence that we can consciously rewire our own brain to cultivate compassion, kindness, and love. With The Compassionate Brain, neuropsychologist Dr. Rick Hanson, author of Buddha’s Brain, presents a FREE eight-part video series that explores the most powerful and effective ways you can create positive, lasting changes in your brain—and your life.

What You Will Receive:

Each session, Dr. Hanson joins a leading scholar or teacher to investigate our growing understanding of the way meditation practice can affect our neurobiology. Together they discuss the research behind neuroplasticity—our natural capacity to change the neural pathways in our brain—and examine which meditation practices seem to have the most positive effect on the human nervous system. Dr. Hanson and his guests will explore valuable insights, discoveries, and techniques—with a focus on practices that help us to create lasting changes in the way we react to and perceive the world.

The Compassionate Brain Topics and Guests:

Discover the Power of Self-Directed Neuroplasticity

“Perhaps the most valuable result of our new discoveries about neuroplasticity,” says Dr. Rick Hanson, “is that it helps us bring our brain into harmony with the greatest virtues of our heart.” With The Compassionate Brain FREE video event series, Dr. Rick Hanson invites you to join him and his seven guests to explore the profound implications of this cutting-edge science—and how you can use it to guide your own transformation.
