The Modern Science of Mindfulness, with Dr. Richie Davidson

What if you could improve your health and wellbeing, not only for yourself but for generations to come, just by practicing mindfulness? The modern science of mindfulness took a turn with the discovery of neuroplasticity - the simple fact that our brains can change. Now, we’re learning more about the mind-body connection and how meditation influences not only our brain, but our physiology and the expression of our genes. In this episode, Dr. Richie Davidson, a pioneer in mindfulness and meditation research, highlights the breakthroughs of modern science which have helped us to better understand both meditation and ourselves.
