“One of the pre-eminent cognitive neuroscientists of his generation” explores the proven benefits of letting your mind wander and the positive impact it can have on your mood and creative potential (Daniel Gilbert, author of Stumbling On Happiness). Our brains are noisy; certain regions are always grinding away at involuntary activities like daydreaming, worrying about the future, and self-chatter, taking up to forty-seven percent of our waking time. This is mindwandering—and while it can tug your attention away from the present and contribute to anxiety and depression, cognitive neuroscientist Moshe Bar is here to tell you about the method behind this apparent madness.\nMindwandering is the first popular book to explore this multi-faceted phenomenon of your wandering mind and introduces you to the new, exciting research behind it. Bar combines his decades of research to explain the benefits and the possible cost of mindwandering within the broader context of psychology, neuroscience, psychiatry and philosophy, providing you with practical knowledge that can help you: Develop your sense of self, better relate to others, and make associations that help you understand the world around you Increase your ability to focus by understanding when to wander—and when not to Magnify and enrich your experiences by learning about full immersion Stimulate your creativity by combing through the past and making predictions about the future Boost your mood by unleashing your mind.

Our brains are noisy; certain regions insist on involuntary activities such as daydreaming, worrying about the future, or conversing with oneself. These activities occupy up to 47% of our waking time. While it can distract from the present and contribute to anxiety and depression, cognitive neuroscientist Moshe Bar reveals the potential benefit behind this apparent neurosis. Wandering is the first book to explore the multifaceted phenomenon of mind wandering and present the new research that underpins it. Bar combines decades of his research to explain the benefits and potential costs in the broader context of psychology, neuroscience, psychiatry, and philosophy, offering us practical and helpful insights.
