Bioinsperationalist Jeff Karp | How To Harness Nature Through Science To Free Your Mind & Take Action

Most of us think we are driving through our lives with automatic shifting, like almost all cars nowadays. But in truth, our life is a stick shift and we must manually shift gears. And most of us habitually live in first to third gear. We go about living in our minds with a lot of limitations, blind spots, and ignorance. So I bring you, Jeff Karp. Jeff started life with some big struggles. Amidst some undiagnosed issues, he did so poorly in school they wanted to hold him back in second grade. Teachers literally put blinders on him and embarrassed him in front of class for not paying attention. He was labeled a troublemaker. But at age eight a teacher asked him about how he was thinking, and it opened up such a new world for Jeff that he cites it as his first spiritual experience. He went on to adjust how he learned and today is a member of the National Academy of Inventors. He is a Professor at Harvard Medical School and MIT and a Distinguished Chair at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Dr. Karp has dedicated his research laboratory to bioinspired medical problem solving, which he explains at the top of the show as studying phenomena in nature and replicating them through science. His lab’s technologies include a nasal spray to neutralize pathogens, a tissue glue that can seal holes inside a beating heart, targeted therapy for osteoarthritis and inflammatory bowel disease, needles that automatically stop when they reach their target, and more. His new book however is focused on you and your brain and the vast, untapped potential he says you can ignite with some tools. And you can upshift in your life. Drive further and faster with less effort. The book is called LIT, which stands for Life Ignition Tools: Use Nature’s Playbook to Energize Your Brain, Spark Ideas, and Ignite Action. Some would call it brain hacks but it’s not. It’s just brain ability we generally are unaware of. So join me in a conversation to learn more about how you can utilize some tools to get your brain…LIT. You can learn more at Dr. Karp's website here: www.jeffkarp.com.
