An Exploration of Why We Dream and the Neuroscience Behind the Phenomenon with Brain Surgeon Dr. Rahul Jandial, M.D., Ph.D

The Blonde Files Podcast

Dr. Rahul Jandial, M.D., Ph.D., is a dual-trained brain surgeon and neuroscientist at City of Hope in Los Angeles, California, and international bestselling author with his books translated into over twenty languages. He joins the show for a second time to discuss his latest book, This is Why You Dream, and his fascinating insights into dreaming, informed by his research and experience as a brain, spine and spinal cord cancer surgeon. We explore the science and neuroscience of dreams, what meaning dreams have in our waking lives, how to think about our dreams, the difference between a dream state and meditative or psychedelic state and the intersection of religion and science. He explains why dreaming is like high intensity interval training for the brain, why our bodies actually need sleep, how our bodies and brains are governed by the earth’s rotation and so much more.
