Your brain is made of cells, chemistry, and electrical signals — yet somehow it creates awareness, memory, imagination, and the feeling of being you.
In this episode of Blossoming Brains, Dr. Vicki Draeger explores consciousness through neuroscience, mindfulness, metacognition, philosophy, and emerging theories about how awareness works.
What creates the experience of self-awareness? Why does attention feel like a spotlight? Could consciousness exist on a spectrum? And how might future AI challenge what we believe about minds and awareness?
This episode explores:
- Conscious vs unconscious processing
- Global Workspace Theory
- Integrated Information Theory
- Quantum consciousness
- Mindfulness and metacognition
- AI and machine consciousness
- The neuroscience of awareness
Listen now and explore one of the most fascinating questions about the human mind.
