I think VR technology and the technology for time was created in such a way that it can actually kind of tap into this same response that we would tap into as if the situation or event is happening in real life.
Imagine stepping into a world where technology doesn't just entertain but also heals. In this episode of 'Brain Shaman', Michael Waite sits down with Sid Desai, co-founder and CEO of NovoBeing (formerly Rocket VR Health), to discuss how virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and artificial intelligence (AI) can revolutionize mental well-being. Sid's journey began with witnessing the profound impact of VR on hospital patients, particularly those battling cancer.
This experience, combined with his brother's mental health struggles, ignited his passion for exploring how these technologies can help us live more fulfilling lives. Sid and Michael dive into how our vision influences our mental state, the therapeutic uses of VR, and how immersive tech can reduce stress and boost relaxation. They also touch on how viewing distances affect our brain, the differences in perceiving 3D versus 2D content, and the connection between VR and our natural ways of living.
Additionally, they explore how redesigning your home environment and daily habits can improve mental health, and how VR can broaden your understanding of identity, life, and reality. This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone curious about the future of mental well-being through the lens of cutting-edge technology.
