Can psychedelics bridge the gap between mental health, spirituality, and modern medicine? Former Google product manager turned medical researcher Fayzan Rab joins Dr. Charles Raison to explore groundbreaking research on psychedelic therapy, its economic impact, and its unexpected intersections with faith and identity.
As you read this, you are breathing and taking no notice of this. After listening to this podcast, we think you may never completely ignore breathing again. In fact, like us, you might become fascinated with the potential breathing holds for changing how we think about ourselves and the world around us.
Few scientists understand this better, both professionally and personally than Don Noble, our guest for this podcast. Dr. Noble has devoted his research career to understanding how breathing–especially slow deep breathing–contributes to the benefits of meditation and yoga techniques. Many people study meditation, but Dr. Noble has done so with a twist, having developed an animal model for the physical benefits of meditation by training rodents to slow their breathing, as happens when humans meditate. In addition to his research, Dr. Noble has been at the forefront of developing novel experiential classes that explore mind-body wellness practices for the Emory Center for the Study of Human Health.
Join us as we explore with Dr. Noble how to harness the mysteries of breath to improve our mental and physical health.
