Merging science and meditation help conflict resolution by increasing mindful communication and decreasing suffering.
In this episode of the Beauty of Conflict, CrisMarie has a conversation with Nicole Tetreault, neuroscientist, author, researcher, and meditation teacher, about the benefits of meditation in reducing suffering and how it can rewire the brain and build new neural pathways. They touch upon the importance of compassion and self-acceptance, highlighting no right or wrong way to approach life. Their conversation explores the challenges of striving executives in corporate environments and offers insights on mindful communication, listening, and conflict resolution. Nicole also talks about her book, “Insight Into A Bright Mind,” which promotes a new dialogue about neurodiversity, focusing on strengths rather than weaknesses.
