    S1/E10 TRAILER: Beating the Odds: How One Doctor Is Defying His Alzheimer’s Genes

    When Dr. Kevin Tran learned he carried two copies of the APOE4 gene — putting him in the top 1% of Alzheimer’s risk — he refused to accept his genetic fate. Instead, he made it his mission to help others rewrite their brain health story. In this episode of Think Shift, host Mantazh Khanna (Brain Coach, PhD cand., MBA, MS) speaks with Dr. Tran about: • The science behind APOE testing and what genetic risk really means • Lifestyle interventions that can protect your brain — even with high-risk genes • The role of sleep, movement, and gut health in cognitive longevity • How mindset and stress reframe our relationship with aging and disease • The power of community in prevention and healing Actionable Takeaways: – Understand your risk, but don’t let it define you – Prioritize restorative sleep and anti-inflammatory nutrition – Move daily: aerobic + coordination exercises build brain reserve – Practice mindfulness to reduce fear and improve cognitive resilience – Build a community of support — connection protects cognition Guest: Dr. Kevin Tran — Founder, The Phoenix Community Host: Mantazh Khanna — Brain Coach, Neuroscience Researcher, Cancer Survivor, PhD cand., MBA, MS 👉 If this episode sparked reflection, follow, rate, and share to support more meaningful conversations on neuroscience, mindfulness, and conscious living. #ThinkShiftWithMantazh #BrainHealth #Alzheimers #Genetics #APOE4 #CognitiveHealth #Longevity #Neuroplasticity #MindsetMatters #LifestyleMedicine #Neuroscience #MentalResilience #DementiaPrevention #BrainLongevity #HealthOptimization

    S1/E9 TRAILER: What does mindfulness really mean—beyond the buzzwords and meditation apps?

    In this episode of Think Shift, host Mantazh Khanna (Brain Coach, PhD cand., MBA, MS) sits down with Tsewang Norbu Vivek, a former monk from Ladakh and founder of Dama House, to rediscover mindfulness through its original purpose—awareness, compassion, and presence. Drawing from years of monastic practice, Vivek reveals how mindfulness isn’t about escaping thought or “emptying the mind,” but about being fully awake in every moment. Together, they explore how to live mindfully in the modern world, manage emotions through awareness, and reconnect with a sense of calm that comes from clarity, not control. You’ll learn: ● What true mindfulness means (and how it differs from relaxation) ● Simple ways to practice mindfulness in daily life ● How to manage anxiety, anger, or sadness through awareness ● The one principle that keeps mindfulness grounded in compassion 👉 If this conversation sparked reflection, follow, rate, and share the podcast to support more meaningful content on neuroscience, mindfulness, and conscious living. #ThinkShiftWithMantazh #Mindfulness #Meditation #Compassion #Awareness #Presence #Neuroscience #Wellbeing #EmotionalHealth #Consciousness #PersonalGrowth #Podcast

    S1/E8 TRAILER: What does your brain say about you?

    In this special episode of Think Shift, host Mantazh Khanna (Brain Coach, PhD cand., MBA, MS) speaks with Santiago Brand, neuropsychologist and founder of MindLab Applied Neuroscience, as they walk through a live qEEG brain scan and discuss what it really reveals Santiago explains how brain mapping exposes hidden patterns in focus, mood, and stress — and how neurofeedback trains the brain to rebalance itself. Together, they unpack the promise and misconceptions of this growing field and explore how self-awareness is still the most powerful tool for change. Actionable Takeaways: – Consider qEEG mapping if you want personalized insight into your brain health. – Use neurofeedback as a training method, not a quick fix. – Monitor your progress through focus, sleep, and energy changes. – Reinforce results with sleep, movement, nutrition, and mindfulness. – Technology can guide you — but your awareness creates lasting change.

    S1/E7 TRAILER: Understanding Brainwaves: What They Are & Why They Matter

    Your thoughts, emotions, and focus are all shaped by your brain’s invisible electrical rhythms — your brainwaves. In this episode of Think Shift, host Mantazh Khanna (Brain Coach, PhD cand., MBA, MS) speaks with Santiago Brand, neuropsychologist and founder of MindLab Applied Neuroscience, to decode what brainwaves really are and how they shape our daily lives. From creativity to anxiety, Santiago reveals how we can train our own brainwave patterns for better focus, emotional balance, and mental performance. Actionable Takeaways: – Use mindful breathing to slow down overactive beta waves – Prioritize sleep to restore delta and theta rhythms – Create mental “recovery” moments during busy days – Experiment with meditation or sound to reach alpha flow – Think of brainwave training as fitness for your mind Guest: Santiago Brand — Neuropsychologist, Founder of MindLab Applied Neuroscience Host: Mantazh Khanna — Brain Coach, Neuroscience Researcher, Cancer Survivor, PhD cand., MBA, MS 👉 Follow, rate, and share to support more science-backed insights on neuroscience, mindfulness, and conscious performance. #ThinkShiftWithMantazh #Brainwaves #Neuroscience #Focus #Mindfulness #PeakPerformance #CognitiveHealth #Neuroplasticity #StressResilience #Neurofeedback

    S1/E6 TRAILER: The Science of Mindfulness: Harvard Neuroscientist Explains How Meditation Rewires Your Brain

    Harvard neuroscientist Dr. Sara Lazar was among the first to prove that mindfulness changes the brain. Her research shows meditation can increase grey matter, strengthen memory & attention, and even shrink the amygdala, the stress center. In this Think Shift episode, host Mantazh Khanna explores how mindfulness boosts emotional regulation, resilience, and cognitive health—with real insights on what works, what’s hype, and how to start. Takeaways: ● 8 weeks of practice can create measurable brain changes ● Mindfulness helps you react less, recover faster, and think more clearly ● Meditation may slow age-related brain decline Guest: Dr. Sara Lazar (Harvard Medical School, MGH) Host: Mantazh Khanna — Brain & Wellness Coach, Neuroscience Researcher, Cancer Survivor, PhD cand., MBA, MS If you enjoyed this podcast, please follow, rate, and share to support the show! #ThinkShiftWithMantazh #Mindfulness #Meditation #Neuroscience #BrainHealth #StressRelief #AnxietySupport #CognitivePerformance #Longevity #HarvardResearch
