Hay House has just printed a new book entitled “Power up your Brain: Spirituality meets Neuroscience” in which neuroscientist David Perlmutter, Ph.D. , M.D. and medical anthropologist and Shaman Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D. discover commonalities among their specialties, making lasting change possible for all.Excerpt:

Neuroplasticity is the link between contemplative practices and enlightenment. You train your brain to open the portal to wisdom when you turn your attention away from the everyday world and gaze within. In the past, it was thought that this ability belonged only to a few enlightened individuals, a belief system perpetuated by priests and religious hierarchies who had a vested worldly interest in protecting their privileged status.In truth, every human being has the brain hardware needed to take this giant leap in consciousness. Our brains evolved to provide us with this equipment long ago. And if we look to the past, we can see the extraordinary feats of creativity and innovation that humankind has achieved by relying on the software that came preloaded in the prefrontal cortex.

Interesting partnership. Both authors have written several books in the past – so, guess what I’m going to be reading as soon as it arrives? Here’s where you can find out more information: http://www.powerupyourbrain.com/about.html
