• We’ll explore how to use these methods to lower anxiety and stress, lift mood, grow confidence, calm, and contentment, and fundamentally, hardwire happiness into the brain.
• The mind shapes the brain: neurons that fire together, wire together.
• Positive experiences are the main source of the neural structures underlying positive mood, resilience, feeling loved, the executive functions, and other inner strengths.
• Unfortunately, most positive experiences are wasted on the brain because it evolved a negativity bias to help our ancestors survive.
