Exploring Blue Mind with Dr. Wallace J. Nichols

In the first episode of At the Interface, I speak with Dr. Wallace j. Nichols, author of Blue Mind: the surprising science that shows how being near, in, on, or under water can make you happier, healthier, more connected, and better at what you do. In my conversation today with Dr. Nichols, we discuss what Blue Mind is in contrast to red and gray mind. How tension doesn't serve you in the water. The privilege and access required to learn to swim, and how as water based beings on a water based planet, that's not okay. Gifting water or music for the holidays, and the benefits of water and music on the brain. And so much more. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Dr. Nichols.
