In this episode, Dr. Amishi Jha explores how to stop losing your mind (literally) and the surprising science of attention. She shares how mastering your mind isn’t about more effort, it’s about understanding how attention really works. You’ll learn how to train the three systems of attention (the flashlight, the floodlight, and the juggler), why mindfulness isn’t just a trend but a mental upgrade, and how to reclaim your focus—12 minutes at a time.

Key Takeaways:

  • How your attention isn’t broken; it’s just overwhelmed.
  • Understand the three key attention modes
  • Embrace how mindfulness strengthens attention
  • Learn the concept of reframing and deframing and why this is so important
  • Discover the relationship between stress, mood, and attention
  • Uncover the micro-moments in your life and why they matter
