In our recent Facebook Live event on May 30, Megan McDonough, CEO of Wholebeing Institute, spoke with Rick Hanson, PhD, about the power of resilience for human flourishing. Their lively conversation explored how to hardwire the good into your nervous system, ways of addressing anxiety and rumination, and Rick’s HEAL approach to positive neuroplasticity (Have, Enrich, Absorb, and Link).

Rick is a neuropsychologist and author of Resilient: How to Grow an Unshakable Core of Calm, Strength, and Happiness, Hardwiring Happiness, Buddha’s Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love, and Wisdom, and Just One Thing: Developing a Buddha Brain One Simple Practice at a Time. He’s also the founder of the Wellspring Institute for Neuroscience and Contemplative Wisdom, an affiliate of the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley.
