b'Today we\\u2019re going to nerd out about what enlightenment (or, if that word is triggering, let\\u2019s just call it \\u201chigh doses of meditation\\u201d) can do to your brain \\u2014 and, more practically, how we can derive these benefits even if we don\\u2019t plan to spend decades living in a cave. My guest is Rick Hanson, Ph.D., psychologist and author of the new book Neurodharma. We go into the deep end, yes, but we also get very down-to-earth, talking about how anyone, including you, can \\u201creverse engineer enlightenment,\\u201d and have \\u201cNirvana operationalized in your nervous system.\\u201d Quick note that this was recorded right before the pandemic, but enlightenment is evergreen.\\nWhere to find Rick Hanson online:\\xa0\\nWebsite: https://www.rickhanson.net/\\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/drrhanson\\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/rickhansonphd\\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/rickhansonphd/\\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickHanson\\nBook Mentioned:\\nNeurodharma by Rick Hanson: https://www.rickhanson.net/books/neurodharma\\nYou can find meditations from our world-class teachers and more wisdom from Rick Hanson on our app. Visit tenpercent.com to download the Ten Percent Happier app and kickstart your meditation practice.
