Rick Hanson: Cultivating Your Inner Garden

Who we become is a result of what we grow inside of ourselves.
Picture your mind as a garden. What would you plant to ensure it flourishes? In this engaging episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer chats with Rick Hanson, PhD, a neuropsychologist and author, about the importance of nurturing positive qualities within ourselves. Hanson, known for his insightful work on resilience and well-being, uses the analogy of gardening to explain how our inner lives can be enriched by the experiences we cultivate.
Drawing from his book 'Resilient: How to Grow an Unshakable Core of Calm, Strength, and Happiness', Hanson offers practical advice on managing challenges and protecting our vulnerabilities. He emphasizes that who we become is deeply influenced by what we choose to grow inside ourselves. By developing habits that foster calmness, strength, and happiness, we can transform our lives from the inside out.
Hanson also touches on the role of the unconscious mind in shaping our behavior and the evolutionary benefits of creativity and art. He critiques the education system for not addressing the real needs of students, suggesting that personal growth should be a fundamental part of learning. Whether you're looking to build resilience or simply curious about the science behind personal development, this episode provides valuable insights and actionable tips.
Get ready to take notes as Hanson shares how small, consistent efforts can lead to significant personal growth.
