Interviews
“David Behrens specializes in the clinical applications of mindfulness and meditation in the treatment of mental illness and addiction. He spent 27 years living as a monk in India before moving to England to become a homeopath in 2007. He spoke to Live For More about how his personal spiritual journey led him to insights about mindfulness that have allowed him to help others.”
“Dr. Richard Berger, professor emeritus for the School of Medicine, developed his mindfulness practice 12 years ago. As his personal practice evolved, he became interested in teaching mindfulness to others. Today, he is a certified mindfulness facilitator, having studied at the Center for Mindfulness at the University of Massachusetts, and receiving his certification from the Mindfulness Awareness Research Center at UCLA five years ago.”
“Sara Lazar, a neuroscientist at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, was one of the first scientists to take the anecdotal claims about the benefits of meditation and mindfulness and test them in brain scans. What she found surprised her — that meditating can literally change your brain.”
