Garnet Dupuis is an integrative healthcare specialist and inventor with a primary focus on consciousness and biophilic technologies. His NeuroVizr headset is designed to generate a neuroplastic sensory enrichment experience known as brain engagement. I have one, and I can’t get enough of it. So a lot of our conversation today takes place in the mind, exploring the benefits of brain exercise, the science behind how we process the wild world around us, and the mystical fourth state of consciousness. Even beyond the mind-blowing tech, Garnet is a deeply thoughtful spirit. The verbal maze we run in this one takes us from his upbringing in Canada, deep into the human psyche, weaves through cosmic concepts like chaos and change, and comes right back around to his fascinating wildlife conservation work in Thailand – where he wraps up on a powerful note of true importance to our species as we know it. I'm so thankful that people like Garnet put their brains and hearts into technologies that can assist all of us in doing just that.
