In this episode I talk with Natalie Baker. Natalie is a psychotherapist and Buddhist teacher, with more than 30 years of personal practice and 2+ decades of teaching experience. She is the founder of Neurofeedback Training Co. and a practicing psychotherapist in New York City, Natalie blends the wisdom of Buddhist psychology with modern therapeutic techniques, empowering individuals to navigate life's challenges with mindfulness, compassion, and resilience.

Natalie teaches from the strength of her own Buddhist practice, sharing the transformative power of mindfulness and meditation with others.

In addition to her psychotherapy practice, Natalie has been instrumental in bringing neurofeedback—a cutting-edge brain training technology—into the mainstream. Neurofeedback is often described as "meditation for the limbic brain", helping individuals achieve greater mental clarity and emotional stability by training the brain to self-regulate.

Stay tuned as we talk about some of my favorite subjects, including:

Mindfulness and meditation
Buddha Nature as basic goodness or fundamental sanity
Finding the brilliance in the energy of fear
Fearlessness and gentleness as key tools for self-healing and self-discovery
Connecting with our warm heart

And more!
