About This Book
"May this very important and enticing book find its way into the
hearts of readers near and far so that it can perform its mysterious and
healing alchemy for the benefit of all." --John Kabat-Zinn, author of
Wherever You Go, There You Are and Professor of Medicine, University of
Massachusetts Medical School
The Transformative Power of Mindfulness
Alchemists sought to transform lead into gold. In the same way, says
Tara Bennett- Goleman, we all have the natural ability to turn our
moments of confusion or emotional pain into insightful clarity.
Emotional Alchemy maps the mind and shows how, according to recent
advances in cognitive therapy, most of what troubles us falls into ten
basic emotional patterns, including fear of abandonment, social
exclusion (the feeling that we don’t belong), and vulnerability (the
feeling that some catastrophe will occur). This remarkable book also
teaches us how we can free ourselves of such patterns and replace them
with empathy for ourselves and others through the simple practice of
mindfulness, an awareness that lets us see things as they truly are
without distortion or judgment. Emotional Alchemy provides an insightful
explanation of how mindfulness can change not only our lives, but the
very structure of our brains, giving us the freedom to be more creative
and alive.
Here is a beautifully rendered work full of Buddhist wisdom and stories
of how people have used mindfulness to conquer their self-defeating
habits. The result is a whole new way of approaching our relationships,
work, and internal lives.
"A wonderfully clear, compassionate, and insightful guide to freeing
ourselves from difficult emotions."
-- Sharon Salzberg, author of Lovingkindness
"A wonderfully wise book, one that is down to earth and immensely
practical. I know I will be using it as a resource in my own life for a
long time."
-- Susan Griffin, author of A Chorus of Stones and What Her Body Thought
"May this very important and enticing book find its way into the hearts
of readers near and far so that it can perform its mysterious and
healing alchemy for the benefit of all. Tara Bennett-Goleman has done a
great service in describing in such inspiring and precise ways how
meditative practices can liberate us from the patterns of emotional
reactions that, unexamined, lead invariably to suffering and harm."
-- Jon Kabat-Zinn, author of Wherever You Go There You Are and professor
of medicine at University of Massachusetts Medical School
"A rare accomplishment, bringing the synthesis of Western psychology and
Buddhist mindfulness practice to an entirely new level. Much more than
theory, it is a wise and pragmatic guide to emotional freedom. Tara
Bennett-Goleman weaves together with consummate skill the wisdom
teachings of the East, the latest understandings of cognitive therapy
and neuroscience, and the innumerable personal stories that bring all of
it to life."
-- Joseph Goldstein, author of Insight Meditation
