Boosting Mindfulness: Dr. Jay Sanguinetti on Brain Stimulation

So right now my research is focused on using non-invasive brain stimulation, so some form of energy, to modulate the brain while people are meditating.
Imagine being able to enhance your meditation practice with the help of cutting-edge technology. In this episode of The FitMind Podcast, host Liam McClintock sits down with Dr. Jay Sanguinetti, a scientist who’s breaking new ground in the field of non-invasive brain stimulation. Dr. Sanguinetti's work at the SEMA Lab is all about finding ways to boost cognitive function and overall well-being through innovative neuromodulation devices.
One fascinating project involves collaborating with renowned meditation master Shinzen Young to create a device that can deepen mindfulness meditation practices. The conversation covers a wide range of intriguing topics, from the science behind how non-invasive brain stimulation works to the neural changes that occur during mindfulness. Dr. Sanguinetti also shares some surprising discoveries that came from studying rare disorders, shedding light on how our brains adapt and change.
Plus, you'll hear about the multi-layered system of motivation and goals within the brain, and how this technology can modulate brain activity during meditation. The episode wraps up with a discussion on the practice of loving-kindness and a thought-provoking look at the impact of capitalism on climate change. If you're curious about how technology can take your mindfulness practice to the next level, this episode is a must-listen.
