In the new episode of Where It’s At, Jefferson Hack sits down with influential thinker Deepak Chopra for a conversation spanning stress, meditation, and consciousness

This week on Where It’s At, Jefferson Hack talks to Deepak Chopra. In a sprawling, dreamlike conversation, the Indian-American author, guru and one of the most profound thinkers of our time talks about evolutionary consciousness, collective dreaming and quantum biology, offering an immersion into the many maps of Chopra’s revolutionary mind. He emphasises the importance of meditation and self-inquiry in accessing the “core consciousness”, as well as the need for creativity.

In part two of the conversation, the pair expand on the topics that have guided Chopra’s life’s work – this time through the lens of his own personal experience. From his addictive personality as a young doctor to the life-changing moment he met the Maharishi Yogi, who inspired him to study consciousness and write his first book – the first of 90 – Chopra reveals his coping strategies, and much more.
