How the Brain Works with Neuroscientist Dr. Heather Berlin

from Influencers · host Podgo

During improvisation or spontaneous creativity, the brain enters a state of being completely intertwined with the activity, be it painting landscapes, playing jazz or freestyle rapping. This is called the Flow state, a unique pattern of how the brain works that cognitive neuroscientist and professor of psychiatry Dr. Heather Berlin has been studying. In this state, creativity is flowing through a person and so a sense of self, time and place is lost to them until they become aware of the activity. Learn Dr. Berlin’s definition of creativity and how meditation helps in achieving the Flow state. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
