The publication of this book is an event in the making. All over the world scientists, psychologists, and philosophers are waiting to read Antonio Damasio's new theory of the nature of consciousness and the construction of the self. A renowned and revered scientist and clinician, Damasio has spent decades following amnesiacs down hospital corridors, waiting for comatose patients to awaken, and devising ingenious research using PET scans to piece together the great puzzle of consciousness. In his bestselling Descartes' Error, Damasio revealed the critical importance of emotion in the making of reason. Building on this foundation, he now shows how consciousness is created. Consciousness is the feeling of what happens-our mind noticing the body's reaction to the world and responding to that experience. Without our bodies there can be no consciousness, which is at heart a mechanism for survival that engages body, emotion, and mind in the glorious spiral of human life. A hymn to the possibilities of human existence, a magnificent work of ingenious science, a gorgeously written book, The Feeling of What Happens is already being hailed as a classic.

Keeps you regular as long as you take them regularly
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 300 Count (Pack of 1)
If you take stuff that keeps you from being regular this is a must have. The pill form is the best as the gummies never work for me. Also works great with Miralax.

Great for getting a good night's sleep
After a stressful day (aren't they all) I often have trouble getting to sleep. I keep these on my nightstand and take one before bed. I find it allows me to fall asleep easily and stay asleep all night. There is no problem with being groggy in the morning like other sleep aids. Ashwaganda is an adaptogen and is supposed to be helpful for other things too. Been using these for months!
