Meditation, Emotions and the Brain with Philippe Goldin, Ph.D.
In this workshop, we will focus on experiencing a variety of specific meditation practices that are related to training attention, enhancing emotional awareness and increasing psychological flexibility. Additionally, we will relate these practices to current neuroscience perspectives on specific brain systems involved in emotional reactivity, cognitive and attention regulation, and self-referential processing. We will also discuss how mental health practitioners are working on integrating meditation practices into cognitive-behavioral therapies for a variety of specific psychological problems, where such hybrid clinical interventions may or may not be helpful, and how clinical scientists are examining the underlying mechanisms of change related to different meditation and cognitive practices. Philippe is currently a research scientist and directs the Clinically Applied Affective Neuroscience group in the Department of Psychology and serves as Director of Clinical Research for the Center for Compassion and Altruistic Research and Education at Stanford University.
