Annaka Harris Bücher

Was ist Bewusstsein? Wie entsteht es? Warum existiert es? Tut es das überhaupt? Oder handelt es sich womöglich um eine bloße Illusion? In diesem wunderbar geschriebenen Buch gibt uns Annaka Harris eine ebenso kluge wie erhellende Einführung in das komplexe Konzept des menschlichen Bewusstseins, das die Wissenschaften seit der Antike beschäftigt. Sie erörtert gängige und überraschende Erklärungsansätze und formuliert diese neu im Lichte des Zeitalters der künstlichen Intelligenz. Denn längst geht es nicht mehr nur darum, wer Bewusstsein besitzt und auf welche Weise, sondern auch was – seien es Maschinen, Computer oder Rechensysteme.

Eva walks with her mother and wonders about the things they see, from gravity to the universe, and learns that it is normal to not know the answer to questions.

Playing games is a great way for kids to develop their focusing and attention skills and to become more mindful. This card deck helps parents, caregivers, and teachers cultivate these qualities at home or in a school setting. The games develop what Susan Kaiser Greenland calls the "new A, B, C's" for learning and for a happy and successful life: Attention, Balance, and Compassion. In a playful way, the games introduce kids to breathing practices and techniques for developing focus, concentration, and sensory awareness, and identifying and self-regulating emotions, among other skills. They include "anchor" games that develop concentration; visualization games that encourage kindness and focus; analytical games that cultivate clear thinking; and awareness games that develop all of these qualities and give greater insight into ourselves, others, and relationships. The deck contains 55 5X7 illustrated cards, each devoted to one game or activity, and comes in a sturdy, beautifully designed box
