Moshe Bar | Mindwandering: How It Can Improve Your Mood and Boost Your Creativity | Talks at Google
Neuroscientist Moshe Bar discusses his book "Mindwandering: How It Can Improve Your Mood and Boost Your Creativity", which explores the multi-faceted phenomenon of the wandering mind and presents revelatory and exciting new research that highlights how mindwandering actually plays a vital role in solving problems and inducing happiness.
Research has revealed that our brains are inherently noisy. Certain regions are always grinding away at involuntary activities like daydreaming, worrying about the future, and self-chatter. Daydreaming and ruminating can tug your attention away from the present and contribute to anxiety and depression. Bringing his groundbreaking research to the forefront, Moshe Bar argues that we can become aware of where our minds wander, directing them to stimulate creativity, increase focus and boost our mood. He investigates these benefits and provides the tools and understanding to help harness our wandering minds in order to boost our creativity as well as our moods.
Moshe Bar is an internationally renowned cognitive neuroscientist and the former Director of the Cognitive Neuroscience Lab at Harvard Medical School. His novel research has made revolutionary contributions to our understanding of perception, cognition and issues in psychiatry. He has a PhD in cognitive neuroscience from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. For his outstanding research and academic achievements, he has received many awards and honors, including the prestigious 21st Century Science Initiative Award from the McDonnell Foundation, and the Hebb Award from The International Neural Networks Society. He currently lives in Israel where he heads the Gonda Multidisciplinary Brain Research Center at Bar-Ilan University.
