In this TEDxTalk, Professor Willoughby Britton tells us that happiness
is not about getting what you want. She discusses our mental qualities
as habits we practice and she sheds light on an important link between
neuroscience and contemplative studies.
Britton received a B.A. in Neuroscience from Colgate University in 1996 and a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Arizona in 2007. Broadly speaking, she is interested in the role of variations in conscious states in the intersection between affective neuroscience, clinical science and religion.

"A wandering mind is
an unhappy mind"
By the power of this merit sharing,
may we avoid the
company of
those ignorant of the Dhamma and
who mislead us.
May we be blessed with
wise friends and skillful
teachers.
May we never stray away from
the Path wherever we are.
May we always have the chance
to study and practise the
Dhamma.
