| 0:08.8 | permission to slow down and connect to the best part of who you are. In today's guided meditation, |
| 0:18.7 | you are going to explore a breathing technique to improve your brain's health. |
| 0:26.3 | And this week, we launch into a brand new meditation series on brain health. And at the very |
| 0:35.8 | beginning of this series, in episode 482, I interviewed a leading |
| 0:43.2 | neurologist in the field of nootropics, and his name is Dr. Andrew Hill. You can head over there |
