Episode 078 :: Dr. Judson Brewer :: Eating Mindfully

Dr. Judson Brewer

Dr. Judson Brewer joins us to speak about eating mindfully with the Eat Right Now app.

Chances are today, yesterday, and just about every day of your life you’ve eaten. Chances are also good that most of those dining experiences were done while not entirely aware of the process; like me, you may have been on autopilot for much of the time. So what happens when this thing we do, that we have to do, is done with intention and awareness?

Jud Brewer is a psychiatrist and internationally known expert in mindfulness training for addictions, having developed and tested novel mindfulness programs for addictions, including both in-person and application based treatments. He h as also studied the underlying neural mechanisms of mindfulness using standard and real-time fMRI, and is currently translating these findings into clinical use. He has published numerous peer-reviewed articles and book chapters, spoken at international conferences, presented to the US President’s Office of National Drug Control Policy, been featured at TEDx, Time magazine (top 100 new health discoveries of 2013), Forbes, Businessweek, NPR, and the BBC among others.
