In this episode, I speak to Asma Arslan, professor in UX Design and Mindfulness instructor about connecting with oneself through nurturing your internal environment. We discuss how students might utilize meditation practices to connect with themselves so that they might enhance creativity, cognition, and develop a deeper sense of empathy for users through design. Asma explains the building blocks of people centered design, how our emotions drive cognition and creativity, optimizing our internal environments through meditation, the process of letting go and being present, finding motivation through your life's purpose versus serving your ego, and much more.
