Flourish As You Age
BRAIN HEALTH
MENTAL MANAGEMENT
A GOOD DEATH
Let's not just fade away; let's FLOURISH as we age!
The MINDRAMP Podcasts focus on three key components that have been shown to contribute to flourishing in the later years of your life. You will find mini-series of episodes that explore each component.
1) Keeping your brain and body healthy - see The Roots of Brain Health
2) Managing your mental states - see Flourishing
3) Planning the kind of death you want to have - (coming 10/1/24))
You will also find the occasional episodes that focus social concerns that I feel have an impact on our well-being, for example "Elections."
Flourish As You Age
MIND - Our Confused Minds
Comments? Send me a text message.
Our minds become muddled with conflict and confusion when the two hemispheres of our brain fail to collaborate. The MIND OVER MUDDLE podcast series explores a range of historical and contemporary disciplines - from mysticism, to meditation, to psychedelics - that are effective when they are able to restore hemispheric balance and collaboration.
This episode introduces the series, articulating - in broad terms - how our minds get muddled and outline a strategy for effectively managing our minds. To paraphrase Alan Watts, we often need to get out of our heads to come back to our senses!
