Description

Our interactions with people are where we experience most of our greatest joys and tragedies. What if you could train your mind to forgive, heal, and find more joy in your relationships with others? Rick Hanson advises, “The astonishing reality is that you can.”

This esteemed clinician and teacher demonstrates how brain science, practical psychology, and Buddhist meditation techniques are now combining to support us in achieving greater intimacy and fulfillment in our close relationships, our relationships with family and friends, as well as in our larger circles of work and community, in The Neurodharma of Love. This audio program encourages us to learn by doing:

How to lay the neuropsychological groundwork for enduring love, develop a healthy balance of intimacy and independence, open our hearts, and strengthen the neural circuits that underlie empathy, compassion, kindness, and love at the deepest levels. Meditations to help us heal childhood wounds and break free from fight-or-flight reactivity.
These concepts—”compassion,” “love,” and “open-heartedness”—go beyond mere sentiment. They are real brain states that we may develop and amplify. With its insightful practices and potent teachings, The Neurodharma of Love teaches us how to improve every relationship in our lives.

Goals of the course:

Explain how to establish the neuropsychological basis for enduring love, strengthen our underlying neural circuits of empathy, compassion, kindness, and love at the most fundamental levels, practice meditations to help us heal childhood scars and let go of fight-or-flight reactivity, and create a healthy balance of intimacy and independence.

So what is NLP?
NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Neuro refers to your neurology;
Linguistic refers to language; programming refers to how that neural language functions.
In other words, learning NLP is like learning the language of your own mind!

NLP is the study of excellent communication–both with yourself, and with others.
It was developed by modeling excellent communicators and therapists who got results with their clients.
NLP is a set of tools and techniques, but it is so much more than that.
It is an attitude and a methodology of knowing how to achieve your goals and get results

About Author

Rick Hanson

I am a psychologist and have written and taught about the essential inner skills of personal well-being, psychological growth, and contemplative practice – as well as about relationships, family life, and raising children.

I grew up in a loving and stable family, mainly in the suburbs of Los Angeles; my mother was a homemaker and administrator, and my father was a zoology professor. A shy and bookish kid who loved the outdoors, I entered UCLA at 16 and graduated summa cum laude in 1974 (and was honored to be one of four “outstanding seniors” chosen by the UCLA Alumni Association). Over the next several years, I founded a successful seminar company, worked for a mathematician doing probabilistic risk analyses for things like the odds of a nuclear power plant melting down, and did management consulting. After working on a Masters in developmental psychology at San Francisco State University, I received a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the Wright Institute in 1991, with a dissertation titled, “Gratifying control: Mothers offering alternatives to toddlers.”

My clinical practice (now closed to new clients) has included adults, couples, families, and children, as well as psychological assessments of children and adults. I have worked in several independent schools, and have given many talks to meetings of parents or child development specialists. I served on the Board of FamilyWorks, a family resource agency in Marin County, and chaired it for two years. I am a former Trustee of Saybrook University.
