This workbook requires some digging to make it work. Definitely not plug and play. If you're looking for something really simple and easy to use this is not it. However, once you dig, the stuff is great!!!

Good Book for someone new to the sport.

Training the Brain: Cultivating Emotional Skills (Wired to Connect, 5)
Richard Davidson, Daniel Goleman

More Than Sound Productions, 2008

Neuroscientist Richard Davidson explains how the brain's social and emotional circuitry becomes shaped to give each of us a unique "brain style" in reacting to life: hair trigger or slow to react, feeling strongly or weakly, recovering quickly or slowly. Davidson's research on meditators suggests we can take a more active role in reshaping our brains, and our emotional response, for the better.

Part Writing and Analysis is now easy to understand
Many theory textbooks complicate part writing and analysis. I had the oppotunity to review and study this book as well as a commonly used theory textbook. This textbook is far superior to the others. I recommend it highly
