Coronavirus Edition: In Case You Didn’t Notice, Attention is Key to Your Well-being The Big Life

This is a moment in history to notice how fractured and vulnerable our attention can be. In today’s economy, everyone is competing for our attention. Because of how triggering the current context is, the links between attention and well-being are more evident and salient. How do we take charge of our attention in a way that benefits our well-being? How can we be more intentional about what we dedicate our attention to? Could we bring purpose and values to our relationship with technology? Just as we reflect on the type of career we want, how we want to raise our kids, or our family values, it’s necessary to reflect about the relationship we want to have with technology. Our guest is Jay Vidyarthi, an attention activist who believes mindfulness can empower individuals to reclaim choice in the attention economy. He leads mindfulness training sessions in organizations of all shapes and sizes. Learn more about him at www.attentionactivist.com. Powered and distributed by Simplecast.
