The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast Am I Just My Brain? with Dr. Sharon Dirckx
Does Your Mind Exist Outside of Your Brain? Or Are "You" Really Just A Bunch of Neurons?
Join me for a fascinating conversation with author and brain imaging scientist Dr. Sharon Dirckx to answer the question. It's a great talk that's full of awe, wonder, and hope!
This is the final episode of season 9, and we're going to take a two-week break after this. You'll still get episodes, but they will be curated old episodes to get you ready for season 10, and for the launch of our brand-new second podcast, Spiritual Brain Surgery with Dr. Lee Warren!
Book mentioned: Am I Just My Brain? by Sharon Dirckx, Ph.D.
