The Neurobiology of 'We'

How Relationships, the Mind, and the Brain Interact to Shape Who We Are

De: Daniel J. Siegel

Narrado por: Daniel J. Siegel

If you think your brain and mind are one, think again. According to the interpersonal neurobioligy pioneer Daniel J. Siegel, the mind actually emerges out of the interaction between your brain and relationships. Now, with The Neurobiology of "We", Dr. Siegel invites you on a journey to discover this revolutionary new model of human development - one that can positively transform trauma, move you from stress to calm and equanimity, and promote well-being for you, your family, or even your community.

I Want Everyone to Listen to This!

Dan Siegel does such thorough, thoughtful, and mindful (:^)) job of explaining how the brain, mind, body processes information, and how past "trauma" can influence your relationships with loved ones, and everyone else. Because I'm a therapist, and I do Past Life Regressions, (I was trained by another psychiatrist, Brian Weiss, MD) I especially loved the part of Dan's lecture where he talks about the "healing" mechanism of turning the events of your life into a meaningful narrative, a story, so that a person heals fast. In Past Life Regression people see their lives from a different perspective, and that help them to "re-do" the event in their brain. And thus helps them heal their present life "traumas," because they experience them as "soul-directed" learning opportunities. Thank you, Dan! I love all your work, and ask all my clients to listen to this!!

Exactly what I was looking for!

Easy to understand. Daniel Siegel shares his knowledge about how the brain and mind work. It is an excellent book. I bought this to help better my understanding of others, mainly children.

Fascinating and profound

I learned so much through this book, starting with the technical aspects of neurobiology that the author goes into, followed by the reasoned and insightful connections he makes to the fields of psychology, education, sociology, and more. Daniel presents deeply complex topics and technical information into consumable insights through his conversational tone, his humility when making careful connections, and also through his ability to translate ideas into clear examples and practical models. I’m hungry to learn more about this topic and look forward to exploring more of his books!

One of the best books I've listened to

This recording brings it all together; the mind, psychology and integration. Siegel has a unique ability to bring it all together seamlessly. When I got to the end I was ready to listen again from the beginning.

Amazing and life changing.

If you want to have a fuller and happier life don't miss this course. A complicated subject made understandable.

1 night binge!!

so engaging I decided to sleep on it. literally dreamed of being read to...Daniel is engaging and passionate

Fabulous overview and exploration of brain/mind

Would you listen to The Neurobiology of 'We' again? Why?

If you are interested in understanding the underpinnings of the brain as it relates to the mind this book is fabulous. It is beneficial to have a foundation in therapeutic language as it relates to the functions of the brain. At times, my previous understanding of the brain was indispensable. Still, the content is relative and useful to anyone.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Neurobiology of 'We'?

Exploring the relationship of the brain and the mind has been incredibly helpful. It is somewhat like nature vs. nurture. How silly to separate one from the other or credit more attention to either. We are complex creatures equipped with the structure of our being made full by the intricacies of our individuality. This book beautifully marries both.

Have you listened to any of Daniel J. Siegel’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have read other books by Daniel Siegel. This is the first I have listened to. His presentation is engaging. Humor is appropriate and content is relevant. "The Whole Brain Child" is, perhaps, one of my favorites.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

A Journey to Discovering the Mysteries of Self.

Any additional comments?

This book is certainly relevant to everyone. It is beneficial to have a working knowledge of the brain, its functions, and structure. Outside of that, Seigel does a competent job of exploring neurobiology, making it relevant to most.

Wow!

As a lifelong armchair student of psychology, I have to say that the format and delivery of this book has truly resonated with me. There's still so much to learn, but now I feel more peaceful about it all. By "it," I mean life, learning, processing, relationships, patience with myself and others, processing my past, and so much more. Thank you, Dr. Siegel! I wish I could be a client of yours!!!

Really delightful and thought provoking.

A wonderful addition to the great titles I've been consuming of late. I think he does about the best job of tying together so much of the dispirite research in so many different disciplines. Loved the ending.

Fabulous

Must read — thorough and accessible for clinicians and all humans to get to a life of higher consciousness
