Episode notes

In meditation, in psychadelecs, a lot of what goes on there is turning the volume down on the default mo network. We often feel thik consciousness is the pilot, or it is the whole thing, the whole thing is consciousness. When we get curious and we're really open to experience, that feeling slips from close to more of an open, expansive calty of awareness. You can think of awe or flow. This e to flow as selfless, is effortlessand actually pretty pleasurable.

In this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer, a neuroscientist and addiction psychiatrist, discusses bad habits and how to change them.

He is the author of The Craving Mind: From Cigarettes to Smartphones to Love -- Why We Get Hooked and how We Can Break Bad Habits -- and his TED Talk on how to change a bad habit has more than 12 million views.

But...we talk about so many other things in this episode. It's a free association smorgasbord of brain stuff that will rattle your head.
