We are so busy these days that it’s great to have just one thing to focus on to make your life better. And because “neurons that fire together, wire together,” each time you do a practice, it strengthens key neural circuits like building a muscle in the gym.Įach practice is grounded in modern neuroscience, positive psychology, Rick’s background in the very real world of business and raising a family. Each bite-size chapter introduces a new practice, explains why it’s important, and shows you how to do it. The book presents 52 practices – simple actions inside your mind – that light up neural networks of deep well-being and resilience. Developing a buddha brain is foranyone – Christian, Jewish, atheist, etc.

Just One Thing has been praised by leading scholars, psychologists, and meditation teachers – including Jack Kornfield, Ph.D., Tara Brach, Ph.D., Daniel J. That’s the promise of Just One Thing: Developing a Buddha Brain One Simple Practice at a Time – which shows you down-to-earth ways to build up a “buddha brain” for more peace of mind in stressful times, greater inner strength and confidence, and an unshakeable sense of contentment and worth. But now, with the power of modern neuroscience, we can take charge of the brain and gradually change it for the better. Each day we are pushed around by external forces – from the economy to the people we live and work with – and by reactions to these that come from ancient reptile/mammal/primate/caveman circuits inside our own brains.
