A Wiser Way to Manage Our Mood

     "cultivating one of four qualities of heart: loving-kindness, compassion, empathic joy, and equanimity ... is especially helpful for balancing our emotions and for opening our hearts. If we know how to work intelligently with our emotions, we can avoid many obstacles that might otherwise hinder our pursuit of focused attention."

       B. Alan Wallace. "The Attention Revolution. Unlocking the Power of the Focused Mind." Wisdom, Boston, 2006.
