EFR 114: How Meditation Can Improve Every Area of Your Life with Ariel Garten

Have you ever thought about meditation as something only level 5000 yoga instructors or Buddhist monks practice? Today's guest, Ariel Garten (@ariels_musings), is here to enlighten us all about not just best practices when it comes to meditation but also the true science behind what goes in our brain and the myriad of benefits it can bring our everyday lives! Ariel is a co-founder of Muse: the brain sensing headband. Muse is the award-winning headband that makes meditation easier. During guided exercises, Muse senses your brain activity and sends that information to your phone or tablet, giving you real time audio feedback to help take the guesswork out of meditation. Ariel studied neuroscience at the University of Toronto and worked in labs at Toronto's Krembil Neuroscience Centre researching Parkinson's disease and hippocampal neurogenesis. No mere science nerd, Ariel is a fashion designer whose clothing opened Toronto Fashion Week in '03, and has had her work displayed at the Art Gallery of Ontario. Ariel's uncommon combination of science and art is integral to the design of Muse and to InteraXon's unique approach to brain sensing technology. Ariel was also a therapist in private practice. Ariel and her team are merging technology, neuroscience, art and design. As well as her full time position at Muse, Ariel keynotes around the world on technology, mindfulness and entrepreneurship and supports and advises a variety of start-ups.
