I spent a fascinating forty minutes talking to the brilliant Richard Gray about the effects of PTSD and addiction, some exciting new ways to eradicate these afflictions, and how we can hack the brain so it can then heal itself.
We touched on the epidemic of addiction and what might be the primary cause for the rise in these patterns. I spoke about this and how it is a major theme in my new book, Martha’s Vineyard Miracles.
Richard and I also ventured into some beautiful spiritual terrain, with him offering some fabulous tips for getting in touch with one’s purpose, and one’s calling, whether through a form of meditation or a simple walk in the woods.
This episode is well worth your time and attention.
