Lynn’s scientific research has explored cancer, compassionate love, stress, quality of life, and ordinary spiritual experiences. Her writing and presentations aim to help others better understand how they can flourish, especially in the midst of tough times. She sees the arts as a vital part of a full life.
Her current project, The Human Self in Dire Circumstances, explores how pain, frustration, loss, or disease, terrible as they are, can help us see through various delusions that keep up from realizing our true selves.
A previous book, Spiritual Connection in Daily Life, looks at everyday experiences–awe, joy, gratitude, giving and receiving compassionate love, deep inner peace–can add zest and depth to life. The book helps us to find more of these experiences that can give us renewable resources and enhance our sense of the ‘more than.’
