As we traverse the digital age, our bond with technology continues to intensify, reshaping the landscape of our neural pathways and deepening our collective dopamine addiction. It's a symbiotic relationship that challenges our mental resilience and calls for a deeper understanding.

On Friday, October 20th, we will learn how to counterbalance this narrative by harnessing the power of mind-training, mindfulness, mind-body practices, meditation, and more. Together with experts in the neural correlates of concentration, flow states, meditative states, mind wandering, and creativity, we will discuss how to nurture a balanced mind amidst the pulsing energy of the digital world. We will be combining the best of 5,000 years on mind training tradition with the cutting edge of modern neuroscience research and technologies.

This half-day dialogue on mind-training in the digital age will convene world-renowned scientists and technologists who will navigate previously uncharted territories of mind training, dissect the dopamine dilemma, and offer innovative strategies for harmonizing our technological interactions.

Unlock a state of cognitive equilibrium where technology serves us, not the other way around. Join us to empower yourself, your family, your community, and society with the best that science has to offer to face an increasingly dopamine-driven world.
