Mindfulness, Meditation & Gratitude with Dr. Greg Hammer
One cannot truly be happy if he or she does not have gratitude. If you’ve ever wondered how can you embrace more gratitude in your life, then this episode is for you. Teresa talks with Dr. Greg Hammer about mindfulness, the pursuit of happiness, and the GAIN method. The GAIN method (gratitude, acceptance, intention, non-judgment) is a meditation technique that helps people be more present and thus happier in their lives. Pair this with mindfulness and you might just learn the secret of living a happy life. Greg Hammer, MD is a Professor at Stanford University School of Medicine, pediatric intensive care physician, pediatric anesthesiologist, and the author of GAIN without Pain: The Happiness Handbook for Health Care Professionals (May 15, 2020). Dr. Hammer is a health enthusiast and meditator, utilizing a non-duality and mindfulness-based approach, including the GAIN method. In this episode you’ll learn: The importance of being non-judgmental. When you notice yourself in a moment of judgment, catch it and bring yourself back to the present. Course correct and move out of the judgment zone. Now instead of a potentially negative experience, it is a neutral experience and perhaps even a positive one. We can rewire our brains. We have a natural negativity bias that affects our thinking. Luckily our brains also have neural plasticity, which allows us to rewire our brains away from a negativity bias. By practicing a meditation method such as GAIN, we can rewire our brain one decision at a time. Many people believe meditation is sitting still for 30 minutes without moving, without thinking. This is not necessarily true. There are many ways to meditate. Explore and find what works for you.
