EP#100 - The Positive Influence of Technology

By Dr. Vic Manzo Jr.

The Mindful Experiment Podcast

13/05/19·54m 10s

In our Part 1 interview, Robert and I discussed the effects of what technology is doing to affect our lives, interfere with being present, mindful and so much more. Since we discussed a few of the negative aspects of tech, we decided to talk more about the positive aspects to how technology can influence our lives for the very same thing it is doing to interfere with it.

Robert will discuss apps, ideas, concepts to help improve your overall life and share simple, basic techniques to help you say in a mindful place. I truly enjoyed this episode and received many great ideas that I have implemented in my life which has made a big impact.

Tune in below!

Who is Robert Plotkin?

Robert is the Founder of Technology for Mindfulness, a leading blog and Top 40 iTunes podcast on science, technology, and mindfulness. 

In his Tap Into Mindfulness program, he teaches people how to be less distracted by their smartphones and how to retake control over their time to be more focused, productive, and creative. His unique approach to technology and mindfulness stems from his combination of expertise in technology (as an MIT-educated computer scientist), decades of experience with Japanese martial arts, and training in Mindfulness- Based Stress Reduction (MBSR).
