Overview
For many of us, daily life has stopped making sense. Super-efficient routines that once served us well now stress us out. Patterns of judgment and negative thinking lead to downward emotional spirals. For others, life has simply lost its spark. Where does change come from when habit lets you down?
Whether weāre struggling with a problem, a bad habit, or life in general, we often think we need to be resilient by ātoughing it outā or ātrying harder.ā But when we do that, our brains double down on the thinking patterns that got us stuck in the first placeāeven when they clearly arenāt working for us. Fortunately, the science of sensation provides the key.
In Better in Every Sense, neuroscientist Norman Farb and clinical psychologist Zindel Segal explain that the brain has two networksāthe rapid problem-solving (habit) network and the sensory network, which is devoted to fresh insight. By tuning into new and everyday sensationsāfrom the feeling of our feet on a crowded street to the sound of birdsong in the parkāwe can engage the sensory network. When weāre stressed or stuck, we can pause to notice and feel the dynamic, vibrant world around us and boost our resilience, well-being, health, and creativity wherever we are, in the moment.
Grounded in decades of scientific research and filled with simple exercises and practical mental techniques for mastering āsense foraging,ā Better in Every Sense explores the power of sensory experiences to liberate us from our ruts and dead endsāand help us successfully handle all of lifeās challenges.
