Acerca de esta escucha
Happiness is the end goal of every human endeavor. It is not so much what happens to us that determines our happiness, but the manner in which our brains make sense of our reality.
Temperament, which represents constitutional differences in reactivity and self-regulation with respect to rewards and punishments, influences the degree to which we are resilient versus vulnerable to the hard knocks of life. Of particular importance are the personality traits of extraversion (the tendency to be bold, assertive, outgoing, talkative, gregarious, and enthusiastic) and neuroticism (the tendency to experience anxiety, irritability, and various other negative emotions). Extraversion predicts higher well-being, whereas neuroticism predicts lower well-being, not only in the present, but also many years into the future, suggesting that personality has a sustained impact on happiness over time.
Interpersonal variation in temperament reflects underlying differences in brain structure and biochemistry. When properly understood, the links between nervous system differences on the one hand, and personality and subjective well-being on the other, have profound implications for enhancing the quality of our lives.
Personality traits may establish our baseline levels of joy, meaning, and contentment. This happiness set point is then pushed and pulled about as good and bad things happen to us. How do personality traits enhance happiness, or undermine it? Do certain life events have the power to permanently modify our happiness set point? What actions can we take to spend most of our lives in the upper half of our biological happiness range? How can we set and adjust life goals to maximize our well-being? Can money buy happiness?
This book is a comprehensive guide to understanding the elements of happiness based on years of groundbreaking scientific research. It also incorporates practical and empowering happiness strategies to help us realize our innate potential for joy, and ways to sustain it in our lives.
Talzoya is a nuclear physicist by education and the author of Of Lovers, Lonely Hearts, and the Psychotic Spell Called Falling in Love and The Traits of Powerful People, as well as numerous scientific publications. Talzoya takes pride in distilling knowledge from fields as distinct as sociology, biology, biochemistry, evolutionary psychology, psychiatry, and neuroscience into a readable format accessible to all, so that we may all benefit from the findings of science.

Depressed or anxious people receive much sympathy, and rightly so, but anger sufferers, not so much. They should. Chronic anger is a stress-related difficulty, too, and anger sufferers deserve compassion as much as anybody else. You didn’t ask to be angry. You won’t be judged here. There are solutions. Using fictional case studies from real-world examples, Anger Management will explain why your subconscious programming may be making it impossible for you to “will” yourself to calm down.

While researching the toxic and addictive properties of sugar for Fat Chance, Robert Lustig made an alarming discovery - our pursuit of happiness is being subverted by a culture of addiction and depression from which we may never recover. Dopamine is the "reward" neurotransmitter that tells our brains we want more; yet every substance or behavior that releases dopamine in the extreme leads to addiction. Serotonin is the "contentment" neurotransmitter that tells our brains we don't need any more; yet its deficiency leads to depression.

Is there a pill for love? What about an "anti-love drug", to help us get over an ex? This book argues that certain psychoactive substances, including MDMA - the active ingredient in Ecstasy - may help ordinary couples work through relationship difficulties and strengthen their connection. Others may help sever an emotional connection during a breakup. These substances already exist, and they have transformative implications for how we think about love.

Aren't we too familiar with the word "addiction"? "You are an addict", this is the most common phrase said by the generation today. But do we know the meaning of being an addict? How is addiction being embedded in our roots, and how is it destroying our lives? Is addiction only related to drugs and alcohol? These are some of the questions which should be known to us in this digital era.

The nature of certain behaviors that are considered destructive can vary from person to person. However, most experts agree that psychological disorders threaten (or damage) the physical integrity, property, space, or daily functioning of a person. In this way, psychological disorders usually affect the rights of others, but you can control it yourself. Candidates most likely to be classified as destructive exhibit behaviors classified as aggressive, especially when the level of aggression is so high that they can be considered verbal or physical violence.

When psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman first discovered Maslow's unfinished theory of transcendence, sprinkled throughout a cache of unpublished journals, lectures, and essays, he felt a deep resonance with his own work and life. In this groundbreaking book, Kaufman picks up where Maslow left off, unraveling the mysteries of his unfinished theory, and integrating these ideas with the latest research on attachment, connection, creativity, love, purpose and other building blocks of a life well lived.
