1. Diane Rehm interviewed Sharon Begley, author of Train Your Mind, Change Your Brain. Sharon is a columnist for the Wall Street Journal - who was invited by the Dalai Lama to record a summit he held at his home {which became the catalyst for her book}. The interview is about her book and how through proper and extensive meditation and cognitive training, the human mind can transform itself. Parts of the brain can learn to function in a different capacity, possibly giving hope to anyone who has lost brain function due to a stroke or injury. Very interesting!
2. Radio West with Doug Fabrizio interviewed Daniel Levitin, author of This is Your Brain on Music. Daniel and Doug discussed the different ways in which music can effect us both biologically and neurologically. For anyone who has an acute love for music, this interview will definitely hold your attention!
