Dr. Candace Pert is a biophysicist who is best known as the co-discoverer of the "pleasure" receptor and for her discussion of neuropeptides, consciousness, and reality. On this two-and-one-half hour presentation on two CDs, she reveals that human beings are biologically "hardwired for bliss." Pert believes that it is possible to change your life by changing your mind.
Bliss, by her definition, involves feeling a divine connection. She talks about pleasure, joy juice, and the unity of life; the importance of forgiveness in healing us on a cellular level; meditation and endorphins; feeling terrible; our multiple selves; and accepting that we deserve pleasure. Here science and consciousness raising combine to fill out the nature of happiness.
