Hey, this is Ari. Welcome back to the Energy Blueprint podcast. With me in this episode is

Ariel Garten, who blends her expertise in neuroscience and psychotherapy and shares insights on

happiness, meditation, brain function, and women's empowerment.

She's the founder of Interrazon, a Silicon Valley-backed brain computer interface tech

startup that birthed the award-winning Muse headband, which is what we're going to be talking about

in this episode, which is hailed by the Mayo Clinic and NASA and many other leading institutions.

the many, many, many science-backed benefits of meditation. I think you're going to get a lot of

insight, a lot of value from this podcast. I think you're going to be very impressed by what

Ariel has to say. So with no further ado, enjoy this podcast with Ariel Garden.
