Hey there, this is Ari. Welcome back to the Energy Blueprint podcast. With me now is Dr. Evian Gordon,

who is an MD and a PhD and is a world leading brain expert. He's the founder and chief medical

officer of My Brain Solutions,

the world's first digital brain tracking and optimization platform. He has more than 30 years

of experience in human brain research and is considered one of the originators in the field

of integrative neuroscience. And he's authored more than 300 peer-reviewed publications.

And he's a mutual friend of my good friend, John Asarraf, who introduced us.

When I asked John, I said, hey, I really want to talk to somebody who's an expert in cognitive biases

and how our brains work to process information, which I feel is right now amidst this

pandemic more important than ever to talk about and really understand.

And John, without hesitation, said, Dr. Gordon is the man to talk to.

So it's a pleasure to meet you.

I've also read your book.

I'm a big fan of your work.

It's really nice to connect with you in person for the first time. It's a great pleasure to meet you. I've also read your book. I'm a big fan of your work. It's really nice to connect with you in person for the first time.

John has spoken very highly of you and I appreciate the connection.

Yeah.

So first to start us off, I would love for you to do kind of a big picture overview of your perception

of what is going on right now with this pandemic from a cognitive, from a neuroscience,

neurological perspective, what's going on in our brains as we're processing this pretty

unprecedented event and unprecedented response to an event like this.
