Learning to Heal: Hypnotherapy, Neuroscience, and the Inner Life - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A neuroscientist with a Buddhist meditation practice walks into a hypnotherapy training. Over ten weekends, in a converted hospital in northern England, something keeps happening that none of his frameworks can fully explain: people change.Learning to Heal is an honest investigation into how the mind transforms - told from the inside of three disciplines that rarely speak to each other. Computational neuroscience, Ericksonian hypnotherapy, and Tibetan Buddhist practice each have rigorous accounts of what the mind is and what can be done with it. Pressed against each other, they converge on observations none of them states plainly: that attention changes experience, that the ordinary mind is not what it appears to be, and that the technique is never the thing.This is not a self-help book. It is an inquiry - precise, sceptical, and willing to sit with what remains unresolved.
