The FitMind Podcast: Mental Fitness, Neuroscience & Psychology
Health & Fitness:Mental Health
Delson Armstrong is a meditation teacher and author of A Mind Without Craving.
He trained for extended periods in the Himalayas and mastered several systems of yoga, including the ten levels of samadhi (meditative states of absorption). Delson has recently collaborated with leading neuroscience research labs interested in studying his brain.
On this episode, we discuss how to conquer a craving mind, cessation and its benefits, the unique way he experiences his inner world, and the studies being done on his brain.
