    • Gli alchimisti desideravano scoprire la formula della pietra filosofale e trovare così il rimedio che curasse le malattie fisiche e spirituali: allo stesso modo, Tara Bennett-Goleman spiega a tutti noi come possiamo raggiungere la giusta “alchimia emotiva” che ci consenta di vincere i momenti di confusione e dolore e conquistare la felicità. Fondendo le ultime scoperte delle neuroscienze e del cognitivismo con gli antichi insegnamenti del buddhismo, questo testo ci insegna a sottrarci alla morsa delle abitudini che ci impediscono di raggiungere il benessere interiore: per mezzo di agevoli spiegazioni e semplici esercizi pratici, l’autrice ci aiuta a identificare i comportamenti distruttivi e gli schemi emotivi in cui tendiamo a farci imprigionare, e soprattutto ci indica i metodi per calmare la nostra mente e giungere alla serenità spirituale.
