In this clip Shamil Chandaria explains the science behind how we construct our sense of self, and why we don’t notice it happening

This four-week course offers a comprehensive science-informed guide to navigate the many styles of meditation, spiritual practise and philosophy aimed at liberation & human flourishing.

Blending lectures with guided meditations, the course introduces the latest neuroscience on how our minds construct reality — and how this understanding can be used to systematically reshape your brain’s predictive processes, reduce suffering, and open towards multidimensional human flourishing.

Shamil Chandaria, PhD, is a meditation researcher and thought leader in consciousness studies with academic ties to Oxford, Cambridge, and Imperial College London.
