Learnability

Maria Sundell is a clinical neurologist with experience in cognitive medicine. After realizing that healthcare is largely focused on the brain when something goes wrong, she wanted to learn more about what a truly healthy, happy brain looks like and has since pivoted into more research-based work and launched the podcast; Brain Observations. Similar to her work there, this episode explores what factors related to brain health, cultivating the mind, and psychological well-being that contributes to a truly healthy, happy life, and why.When you understand yourself better it is easier to find what makes you as an individual thrive and feel joy. When you understand the mind better it is easier to find peace. When you understand the brain better you see the possibilities.Resources:Find her podcast here: https://brainobservations.com/Book, Ultralearning by Scott H Young: https://www.scotthyoung.com/blog/ultralearning/Book, Atomic Habits by James Clear: https://jamesclear.com/atomic-habitsFind clips from this conversation here: https://www.instagram.com/learnability.online/Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/learnability.
