Welcome to the next installment of Paying Attention to Attention, the video-mostly portion of the “John Medina’s Brain Rules” substack. This entry discusses the role a brain region called the thalamus plays in helping you pay attention to your world. We start with comments about getting a good night’s sleep, then move to a story about a growling bear.
As ever, there are both uncaptioned and captioned (cc) versions of this video.
Here is a reference for Entry 058:

Forgive me for being late to the game. I'm trying to find the article that John wrote/mentioned all the way back in Entry #1, "A Golden Ticket to Amazing." How may I access that?
