Contemporary psychology has rediscovered many of the timeless insights of Buddhist psychology and validated the healing benefits of its contemplative methods. This half-day workshop focuses on two recent breakthroughs that shed light on the Buddha’s crucial discovery: that the root cause of our suffering is our fixation on the traumatic sense of being a separate, disconnected self, alone in an uncaring world. The two recent breakthroughs—the neuropsychology of attachment and attachment trauma—shed light on the deeper meaning of that root cause, and help us understand and apply the wisdom of selflessness in a way that frees us to develop wiser and more caring relationships with ourselves, others and the earth we share with all life. Joseph Loizzo, M.D., Ph.D. is a contemplative psychotherapist, clinical researcher, and business consultant who integrates ancient contemplative science and technology with contemporary breakthroughs in neuroscience and optimal health. Workshop is online only, with the registrant option to Stream Later.
