Dr. Judson Brewer: Everybody's Everyday Addictions




Healthy Human Revolution show

Summary: Dr. Jud Brewer (MD PhD) is one of my favorite people to interview because I learn so much with every conversation. Dr. Brewer is a cofounder of MindSciences, and his work is focused on the field of habit change and the “science of self-mastery”, combining over 20 years of experience with mindfulness training and a career in scientific research. He is passionate about understanding how our brains work, and how to use that knowledge to help people make deep, permanent change in their lives — with the goal of reducing suffering in the world at large. Dr. Jud is the Director of Research and Innovation at the Mindfulness Center and associate professor in psychiatry at the School of Medicine at Brown University, as well as a research affiliate at MIT. Before that, he held research and teaching positions at Yale University and the University of Massachusetts’ Center for Mindfulness. In this conversation we talk about everybody's everyday addictions...yes you read that right...you have addictions as do I and Dr. Brewer has a brilliant way for us to identify them and conquer them.
