{"product_id":"9781401951290","title":"The MindBody Self: How Longevity Is Culturally Learned and the Causes of Health Are Inherited","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn these turbulent times, just about every solution you can think of has been put forth by someone, somewhere, as a way to calm the waters and live with more happiness and ease. But the fact is you cannot \u003ci\u003ethink\u003c\/i\u003e your way to a better life. Change isn’t something your mind can accomplish alone. It calls for mind and body to work together in a deeper unity than you may ever have imagined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeuropsychologist Mario Martinez is a pioneer in the science of the \u003ci\u003emindbody\u003c\/i\u003e—his term for that essential oneness of cognition and biology—and a passionate advocate for its power to reshape our lives, if we work with it consciously. In \u003ci\u003eThe MindBody Self\u003c\/i\u003e, he builds on the foundation he laid in the critically acclaimed \u003ci\u003eMindBody Code\u003c\/i\u003e to explore the cultural conditions that coauthor our reality and shape every aspect of our lives, from health and longevity to relationships and self-esteem. Then he offers practical tools we can use to shed outworn patterns and create sustainable change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou’ll read about:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow our cultural beliefs affect the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of disease\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe difference between growing older (which we all do) and “aging” by our culture’s standards (which we can learn not to do)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat happens when we move “beyond the pale” of our tribe’s expectations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to navigate adversity using uncertainty as a guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiocognitive tools for a healthy life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe MindBody Self\u003c\/i\u003e presents groundbreaking ideas derived from rigorous scholarship—but you don’t need a background in science to use what you find here. Each chapter concludes with exercises and experiential processes that make complex scientific discoveries not only accessible, but applicable. The result is a paradigm shift in which the myths of doom are shattered by the science of hope, survival takes a back seat to meaning, and fear gives way to love.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hay House, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47125696643312,"sku":"9781401951290","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781401951290_p0.jpg?v=1763714851","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781401951290","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
