In this episode, we welcome Dr. Norman Farb and Dr. Zindel Segal, two leading researchers in mindfulness and mental health, to explore the science behind mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) and the emerging concept of sense foraging. They discuss how the brain actively seeks and processes sensory experiences, shaping our perception of reality and emotional well-being. By understanding sense foraging, we gain insight into how attention and curiosity influence mental health, resilience, and the ability to navigate stress. Dr. Farb and Dr. Segal dive into the neurological and psychological mechanisms that underpin mindfulness, shedding light on how meditation can rewire the brain and enhance emotional regulation. They also discuss how cultivating awareness of our sensory environment can create new pathways for healing and self-discovery. It’s a fascinating episode, hope you enjoy.
