“Anxiety can be a habit, and if it can be learned as a habit, we can unlearn it.” -Dr. Jud Brewer
In this episode, we dive deep into the intricate relationship between anxiety, addiction, and the neuroscience of self-mastery with renowned psychiatrist and neuroscientist, Dr. Jud Brewer. Join us as we explore how anxiety can become a learned habitual loop and the powerful role of curiosity in breaking this cycle. Dr. Brewer shares insights from his extensive research, revealing how our brains respond to anxiety and addiction, and how we can harness mindfulness and observation to transform our experiences.
About our guest:
Dr. Judson Brewer is a psychiatrist, neuroscientist, and New York Times best-selling author recognized as one of the world's leading experts on habit change and the science of self-mastery. He is Director of Research and Innovation at Brown University's Mindfulness Center, where his lab uses fMRI and EEG to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying mindfulness, addiction, and anxiety—research that has fundamentally reshaped how scientists and clinicians understand behavior change.
Dr. Jud has spent over two decades developing and testing evidence-based programs for smoking cessation, emotional eating, and anxiety—translating rigorous science into tools that are both clinically effective and accessible to general audiences. He has trained U.S. Olympic athletes, coaches, and foreign government ministers, and his work has been featured on 60 Minutes, The New York Times, Time, and beyond. His TED talk on habit change has accumulated over 20 million views.
He is the author of three books—The Craving Mind, Unwinding Anxiety, and The Hunger Habit—and writes the Substack newsletter Inside the Curious Mind. He co-founded MindSciences and MindShift Recovery, a nonprofit integrating digital therapeutics with peer support for addiction treatment. His latest initiative, Going Beyond Anxiety (goingbeyondanxiety.com), is a next-generation program that combines cutting-edge neuroscience with experiential learning to transform how people relate to anxiety at its root.

“Changing yourself is wisdom. Changing others is ignorance."
-Tulku Lobsang
Dr Espen sits down with Tulku Lobsang for a profound conversation on the ancient Tibetan practice of Tummo, the nature of death and reincarnation, and what it truly means to live without regret. Tulku shares his journey from being recognized as a reincarnated Lama at age 13 to becoming a master of inner fire practices, and offers practical tools anyone can use, no monastery required, to access more bliss, presence, and peace in daily life.
About our guest:
Venerable Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche is a high Buddhist master who was born in 1976 in Amdo, Eastern Tibet. At the age of 6, Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche entered the local Buddhist monastic school. At 11, he then moved to the Nangzi Monastery, the largest Bon monastery in Tibet. At that time, the monks of the Sowa monastery were looking for the reincarnation of their lama. At the age of 13, Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche was recognized as the 8th reincarnation of the Nyentse Tulku. In 1993, at the age of 17, Rinpoche left Tibet for South India to deepen and complete his studies in the Gaden Shartse Monastery. After five years in Gaden Monastery, Tulku-la moved to Dharamsala to pass the Tibetan cultural heritage on to both Tibetans and Westerners. Since the year 2000, Rinpoche has been traveling through Europe, America and Asia sharing his deep knowledge in order to reduce suffering in the world. Tulku-la bases his teachings on the ancient knowledge of Tantrayana, which is the foundation of both Tibetan Buddhism and Tibetan Medicine. Rinpoche bridges worlds and translates the ancient wisdom of his venerable transmission lineage into practical advice for the present day. Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche’s organization “Nangten Menlang International” is headquartered in Vienna, Austria. The team there offers Online-Events, Teacher Certification Programs as well as In-Person-Events and takes care of Rinpoche’s Nying Drod Warm Heart Charity Project.
