Born To Flourish - Richard Davidson - 11/18/2025

CONSCIOUSNESS & REALITY 2025-26 SERIES Colloquium by Richard Davidson, William James and Vilas Research Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry, University of Wisconsin (UW)-Madison and Founder of Healthy Minds Innovations Inc., delivered on 11/18/2025. DESCRIPTION This talk will consider scientific evidence that suggests that we can change our brains by transforming our minds and cultivate habits of mind that will improve well-being. These include happiness, resilience, compassion, insight and emotional balance. Each of these characteristics is instantiated in brain circuits that exhibit plasticity and thus can be shaped and modified by experience and training. Mental training to cultivate well-being has profound implications for understanding consciousness and the nature of reality. ABOUT THE SERIES The Consciousness & Reality (C&R) colloquium series promotes interdisciplinary investigations on mind, cognition, consciousness, and the nature of reality.
