Ep. 26 Greater Culture Podcast ft. Dr. Amishi Jha

Have you wondered why it is so hard to keep your attention in the present moment and focus on the tasks right in front of you? This episode is with Dr. Amishi Jha who is a professor and researcher in the field of attention and mindfulness at the University of Miami. She has spent years studying and trying to figure out how we can stay in the present moment in any environment. Her research and book, "Peak Mind" have impacted the way military, corporate, and athletic teams train the brains of their most important resource, their people. This episode will help build an understanding of what our attention is, why it is so fickle when it is stressed, bored, or fatigued, and what we can do to improve our ability to be present with the moments that matter most to us.
