I am so glad you could join us. I'm your host Mo Gaudette. This podcast is nothing more than a conversation between two good friends sharing inspiring life stories and perhaps some

nuggets of wisdom along the way.

This is your invitation to slow down with us.

Welcome to Slo-Mob. Welcome to Slo-Mob. Welcome back. In part one of this conversation with Rick Handsome, we discussed what the mind is, how we truly can enrich and absorb good experiences,

and how to look at the human mind as the ultimate lab for experimentation.

We also learned about neuroplasticity and how far this can take us.

Dr Rick Hansen is a psychologist,

a senior fellow at the UC Berkeley

a Greater Good Science Center.

He began meditating in 1974 and never turned back.

He followed a spiritual pass since and combined that with his scientific background to become the founder

of the Wellspring Institute for neuroscience and contemplative wisdom.

Rick is a New York Times best-selling author.

His books include

Neurodarma, resilient, hardwiring happiness, the Buddha's brain, just one thing, and Mother Nature.

He's been published in 29 languages and sold close to a million copies in English alone.

His free weekly newsletter has 180,000 subscribers, to whom he distributes wisdom for free,

and his programs online have scholarships available for those with financial needs.

Rick is an expert on positive neuroplasticity, but in my view, he truly is an expert on positive change for our world.

Okay, can I'm to attempt to do a tough experiment here because, so I, again, I mean, I think you and I are talking and referring to certain things, they make the learn,

or this all and so on and so forth.

Maybe it would be not a bad idea
