    Unlocking the mind's potential by understanding how it works | Dr. Aaron Turner

    Unlocking the mind's potential by understanding how it works | Dr. Aaron Turner

    My guest on Brand New Thought, Dr. Aaron Turner, makes a powerful case that it has less to do with managing our state of mind and everything to do with how we understand how the mind works, to begin with.



    Dr. Turner is the co-founder of One Thought and the president of the board of directors of Three Principles Global Community.



    He is one my most respected figures in the industry of personal development and well-being, having worked with businesses, couples, individuals and even the military.



    What I love most about Aaron's style is that he provides a simple and working understanding of our natural ability to live and work in a clearer, healthier state of mind, going beyond short-lived techniques.

    Transcendental Meditation, Armenia and PTSD | David Shapiro

    Transcendental Meditation, Armenia and PTSD | David Shapiro

    In this bonus episode of Brand New Thought, we speak with David Shapiro, Director of the Alliance for PTSD Recovery, a charitable, educational and research organization that studies and implements evidence-based treatments for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), including the Transcendental Meditation (TM) program.

    We discussed what the research on TM reveals about the nature of consciousness, what TM is and how it contributes to PTSD treatment, increased productivity for individuals and organizations.

    David shared the history of TM in Armenia, how it was brought to help overcome the suffering that unfolded after the earthquake of 1988. After the Nagorno-Karabakh war of 2020, TM is, once again, being used in Armenia to overcome the mental health crisis.

    We  also discussed the so-called Maharishi effect. The research demonstrates that when 1% of the population practices TM or if the more advanced techniques of group meditation are used, it leads to a decrease on in overall level of violent incidents thereby affecting the nation more massively, including people who do not meditate. 

    You can find out more on the research on TM at https://aptsdr.org and https://www.tm.org.
