Enlightenment for Grown Ups is a consequence of what happened to me a number of years ago when I started practicing mindfulness meditation to change how I saw the world. I really didn t expect anything to happen, but to my lasting surprise it did. Little by little at first, and then with flashes of insight as mindfulness practice changed and developed. Eventually, I reached a tipping point from which there was no return. The book is a reverse-engineering of what I ultimately did to myself. We live in exciting, and scary, times for the brain. Neuroscience is making huge advances in both mapping the brain and in explaining how its wiring dictates how we perceive and interact with the world. It shows the brain to be not a fixed structure, but a plastic one, changing throughout our lives. Evidence shows how new brain cells form in parts of the brain and then migrate to other parts, changing the very wiring that makes us us. This rewiring can be aimed at specific medical conditions such as anxiety, or can be used for other things such as accelerating learning, or insight. Medical research is rapidly approaching a time when this rewiring can be done to us, hopefully for the best possible reasons, using drugs or other external stimuli such as focused electromagnetic pulses. We will soon come to see it as a normal type of treatment done to us by medical practitioners. However, research also shows that we can undertake such changes ourselves, at our own pace and in our own homes just by sitting quietly, using some ancient meditation practices. Practices I just happened on by chance in my own experiments. The book is written for anyone who wants to explore changing their lives, for whatever reason. It is a step by step guide to rewiring the brain using tried and tested techniques, but based on my own experiences of insight meditation. It can be used as a dipping-the-toe-in experience, maybe for relaxation or to reduce anxiety, or can be taken all the way to f.
