Healing Emotions: Conversations with the Dalai Lama on Psychology, Meditation, and the Mind-Body Connection (Book 11 - Core Teachings of the Dalai Lama)

Healing Emotions: Conversations with the Dalai Lama on Psychology, Meditation, and the Mind-Body Connection (Book 11 - Core Teachings of the Dalai Lama) Paperback – 20 Oct. 2020 by Dalai Lama (Author), Daniel Goleman (Author).

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. Edited by Pulitzer Prize nominee and best-selling author Daniel Goleman.

Can the mind heal the body? The Buddhist tradition says yes--and now many Western scientists are beginning to agree. These discussions between the Dalai Lama and this group of prominent physicians, psychologists, philosophers, and behaviorists could not be more timely. The book is a record of the third Mind and Life Conference, a meeting that took place in Dharamsala, India, gathering Buddhist teachers and Western scholars to discuss questions that provide a framework for an ongoing dialogue between psychology and Buddhism. Edited with a new foreword by Daniel Goleman, this exploration of stress, death, meditation, self-compassion, and much more underscores the timeliness and significance of working together--across scientific and religious aisles--for the greater benefit of humankind.
