The power of positive moments. Relieve stress, burnout and anxiety with meditation in just one minute a day

Captivated by trepidation, we do not even suspect that elation is not the only thing that is happening to us at this moment. Amazing processes also take place in the body at this time: the nervous system calms down, inflammation decreases, the “love hormone” oxytocin is released, and more. Jake Eagle, psychotherapist and mindfulness instructor, and Michael Amster, physical therapist, MD, physician, certified yoga and meditation teacher, talk about all these incredible changes. In this book, they offer a practice that harnesses the healing effects of mindful awe and, unlike long meditations, takes just one minute a day. What changes in the body and mind when we experience awe? What does science know about this? Why exercise the “trembling muscle” and how to do it if you suffer from pain or despair? In this book by Jake Eagle and Michael Amster, you'll learn the power of powerful emotions, how they affect our physical health, mental well-being, and cognitive abilities, and learn how to use the practice of reverence to heal the body and soul in everyday life.
