Benson and Proctor apply science to what many of us have discovered quite by accident without the help of books. For me, the "break-out" moments often occur during a long and brisk walk in a park across the street from my house. Or during a kayak adventure on a lake or river near my cottage. The authors explore how biological triggers can help spur creativity and problem-solving. In my estimation, the book dwells just a bit too much on the "inside baseball" scientific/biological principles. And I must confess that I didn't quite make it to the end when "transcendence" and the "power of intrinsic belief" were explored. In all candor, I believe these chapters would have lost me. But I do think "The Break-Out Principle" broaches -- or at least reinforces -- some helpful strategies for fostering creativity and problem-solving. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Would it surprise you to learn that to solve a seemingly unsolvable problem, you need to get up and leave the room? A walk in the woods will help you finish your novel? Humming can make you a better tennis player? Or completely giving up is the way to succeed? In The Breakout Principle, the bestselling author of The Relaxation Response delivers the ultimate self-help principle -- simple instructions to activate a powerful biological trigger that converts conflict and confusion into clarity and extraordinary performance, a state athletes refer to as "the zone." More than three decades ago, Dr. Herbert Benson of the Harvard Medical School began research into why some people are devastated by stress while others thrive, turning it into brilliant achievement. Now The Breakout Principle reports the discovery of an easy-to-access inner switch that increases mental function, enhances creativity and productivity, maximizes athletic performance, and enriches spiritual life. The same internal mechanism that improves a tennis serve or golf putt strengthens your speaking skills, makes you a better negotiator, and fosters inner peace and belief. Dr. Benson and coauthor William Proctor explain the cutting-edge science behind the phenomenon in accessible language, clearly describe the four distinct phases of the Breakout, and provide simple, step-by-step instructions on how to activate the Breakout "trigger." Compelling case histories and information on how to incorporate Breakouts into daily life are woven throughout the book. Dr. Benson's previous discoveries have helped millions reduce the harmful effects of stress. The Breakout Principle now reveals how to maximize your untapped abilities and powers.
