A Tibetan monk-turned-professor reveals how to use the ancient art of compassion to fuel happiness, manage anxiety and depression, and help us cope in the face of suffering.

Leverage your biology to support the healing of anxiety, isolation, deep sadness and conflict with this research-tested program for actively practicing compassion.

Tasked by the Dalai Lama to find new ways of sharing ancient Tibetan wisdom with the modern world, Lobsang Tenzin Negi has been at the forefront of compassion science for over 25 years. The culmination of this work, his pioneering Cognitively-Based Compassion Training (CBCT) is more effective than mindfulness in reducing anxiety and depression, and helps to nurture kinder, more collaborative societies too.

Guiding us through 8 basic steps, Dr Negi reveals that compassion is a natural instinct, and shows how CBCT can shift our internal wiring to unlock this simple superpower. Each chapter blends traditional Buddhist stories, contemporary anecdotes from across the world, scientific evidence, practical advice, guided meditation and a three-step exercise, to give us a comprehensive and memorable method for improving our lives.
