In this groundbreaking book, neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett challenges conventional wisdom about emotions, proposing that they are not universal reactions but rather constructed by the brain based on predictions, bodily sensations, and concepts. She explains how our brains create our emotional experiences and how this understanding can lead to greater emotional intelligence and well-being.
And to borrow from the great psychologist and neurobiologist Lisa Feldman Barrett who says you know we are not just individuals we are nervous systems influencing other nervous systems and their nervous systems are influencing us.

"Lisa Feldman Barrett, a renowned psychologist and neurobiologist, was quoted by the speaker to emphasize the interconnectedness of nervous systems, stating, 'we are not just individuals we are nervous systems influencing other nervous systems and their nervous systems are influencing us.' This quote directly reflects the core themes of her work on how the brain constructs emotions and interacts with the environment and other individuals, making this book highly relevant to the discussion on social bonding and inter-personal influence."
