Benevolent Brainwashing

“The Mind-Body Connection”

Benevolent Brainwashing with Glenn Ostlund, MA, MS, LAC

In this calming and science-informed meditation, Glenn Ostlund invites you to experience the power of sound as a catalyst for healing. Designed to gently soothe the nervous system, this episode explores how binaural beats can lower stress hormones like cortisol while boosting dopamine, serotonin, and oxytocin—your body's own mood-shifting messengers. Through the metaphor of a living, layered pie, Glenn introduces the mind-body connection as a vital but often invisible ingredient in your overall well-being. Let this soft recalibration unfold inside you—no effort required. Just sit, breathe, and allow the journey to begin.
