About this listen

TRAIN YOUR MIND TOWARD LASTING CONNECTION AND JOY

Eager to share the life-enhancing benefits he found in Buddhism, skeptic Scott Snibbe presents this 8-step programme that allows anyone to build positive mental habits. Inspired by the ancient Buddhist path to enlightenment yet firmly grounded in modern science, How to Train a Happy Mind is the first mainstream book to show how you can achieve happiness using analytical meditation. Working in much the same way as cognitive behavioural therapy, analytical meditation goes beyond the calm-inducing practice of mindfulness to actively train the brain through easy-to-follow narrative visualizations.

Breaking the path down into concise steps and written in a relatable tone with plenty of references to popular culture, this is the ideal book if you recognize your mind as both the source of your problems and the source of your solutions.

This book really helped my realization. I too don't subscribe to supernatural beliefs, and I love that someone has taken the time to plant the practices of the lam-rim in the ground of what we have learned it science. The beliefs of Tibetan mythology were not the crucial ingredient, but a tool for reflection to realize nonconceptual truths. Using scientific findings works just as well in a recipe that is more to the taste of the secular world.
