BOOK DESCRIPTION = Inspired by the revolutionary “MindUP” program (developed under the auspices of the Hawn Foundation), the book offers easy-to-grasp insights from current behavioral, psychological, and neurological studies to show how our thoughts, emotions, and actions — including our ability to focus, manage stress, and learn — are all exquisitely interconnected.
