Description: xi, 289 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm Summary: Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor closed her famous TED talk by stating that we have the power to choose, moment by moment, who and how we want to be in the world. Dr. Jill will show people how they can tap into the present moment to shift out of anxiety and stress circuitry and gain the sense of deep inner peace. Drawing on up-to-the-minute brain science, she explains how different groups of cells in each hemisphere function as distinct "characters" that we can get acquainted with in ourselves and recognize in others - and how these characters hold the key to choosing who and how we are in each moment.
