LISTEN, LEARN, SHARE IBD

Sinopse

Listen, Learn, Share culminates a lifetime of study, research, and exploration by James R. (Jim) Martin, an Emmy award-winning documentary director, producer, writer, and university professor. He has written this book to share what he believes is a way to live without stress, anxiety, and worry.áLearn to listen to your body, mind, and world. Understand your true nature. Listening is a state of mind that leads to meaningful living. The word 'mindfulness' exemplifies listening, learning, and sharing. This book outlines a path to mindfulness through learning enhanced listening skills. Filters in oneâÇÖs mind influence the process of listening and learning. These filters, acquired through heredity, cultural life experience, and other sources, predispose us to see the world through the past rather than the present.á'Twenty-six centuries after Buddha taught his philosophy, science has begun to recognize that much of what he taught supports their research. Psychologists are now confirming the concept of 'No Self' and the fact that 'I' and 'Me' are constructs of our minds. There is no 'mini-me or self in our minds controlling our actions. Instead, there are thoughts generated by experience and genetic code. Once we can identify these thoughts by listening, we can make decisions based on present conditions. We do not need to be Buddhists to learn these techniques.
