Dr. Sara Mednick: Step Off the Hampster Wheel

The traditional pattern in life is to hit the ground running when the alarm sounds in the morning, go full speed ahead all day with the possibility of a short break over the lunch hour, cap it off with a session at the gym, kids activities or errands before – if we’re lucky – crashing on the couch for a bit of mindless TV before crawling into bed and then starting the whole process over the next day. What if there was a better approach available? A way to recharge our lives through a natural restoration process that wasn’t based on some hokey-pokey song and dance but rather established, evidence-based practices? 

Welcome to the Catalyst Health, Wellness & Performance Coaching Podcast. Today’s guest is Cognitive Neuroscientist, Dr Sara Mednick, author of the exciting new book The Power of Downstate, which takes the reader through the research-based strategies to tap into the opportunities provided by purposeful downstate extension and enhancement to make the most of our personal and professional lives.
