Thibaut Meurisse
Thibaut Meurisse argues that your brain evolved to keep you alive, not to make you happy, which is why negative emotions hijack your attention while joy slips away unnoticed. Drawing on John Milton's insight that the mind can make a heaven of hell, Amy Cuddy's power-pose experiments showing testosterone spikes and cortisol drops, and Hale Dwoskin's Sedona Method for releasing stored feelings, this guide offers a concrete formula for emotional mastery: Interpretation + Identification + Repetition = Strong Emotion. Remove any one element, and the grip loosens.
You'll learn:
- Why suppressed emotions sink into your subconscious identity
- How two-minute posture shifts alter your hormonal state
- The three-tier control model for dissolving chronic worry
