Publisher's Synopsis
Every day we are faced with one of the most important human activities: making decisions. The first thing we do when we open our eyes can influence the rest of the day. The attitude we take will activate our genes, favoring or harming our health. The discovery of this fact was a turning point in the world of science. Can we affirm that our mood or our attitude affects our genes? How does lack of love affect our health? Why does lack of love make us sick? What happens in our brain if we are treated as objects that have to meet the expectations of others? These realities and processes, intimately related to our health and, in the medium term, also to our happiness, are the subject of these pages. So, let's stop and think about whether we have the right tools to face the different daily challenges. The good news that comes from the hand of neurobiology is that our brain is able to learn and change constantly, adapting to the challenges of life because it has a great plasticity, is malleable and ductile, and has the ability to accommodate to new circumstances. This book has a single purpose: that we learn to live a full and healthy life.
