WEBVTT - Maya Is Chris Hemsworth’s Brain Coach! 

0:00:02.640 --> 0:00:07.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm diving headfirst into cutting edge science to uncover three

0:00:07.320 --> 0:00:11.160
<v Speaker 1>secrets to living better. We got a lot of work.

0:00:11.039 --> 0:00:16.040
<v Speaker 2>Today, hasekee changers. That was actor Chris Hemsworth talking about

0:00:16.040 --> 0:00:20.360
<v Speaker 2>his experience on his TV show Limitless. One of the

0:00:20.400 --> 0:00:22.880
<v Speaker 2>best ways to boost your brain is to learn a

0:00:22.920 --> 0:00:25.040
<v Speaker 2>new skill. You should be here and that was me

0:00:25.720 --> 0:00:28.960
<v Speaker 2>because I was featured as a neuroscience expert on the series.

0:00:29.480 --> 0:00:33.440
<v Speaker 2>The show premieres tomorrow, Friday, August fifteenth on Hulu and

0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:37.360
<v Speaker 2>Disney Plus. In the premiere episode, I serve as Chris's

0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:41.560
<v Speaker 2>brain coach and teach him about the powerful science of neuroplasticity.

0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:44.960
<v Speaker 2>I then encourage him to pick up a new skill,

0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:47.920
<v Speaker 2>which research shows as one of the best ways to

0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:51.600
<v Speaker 2>keep our brain sharp and stave off age related decline.

0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:55.160
<v Speaker 2>Chris ends up choosing to learn the drums and commits

0:00:55.200 --> 0:00:59.120
<v Speaker 2>to performing live with Ed Sheeran in front of seventy

0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:03.040
<v Speaker 2>thousand pace. You won't want to miss what happens. This

0:01:03.120 --> 0:01:06.919
<v Speaker 2>show is beautifully produced and manages to combine the thrill

0:01:07.000 --> 0:01:10.640
<v Speaker 2>of adventure with scientific principles that will help you live

0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:14.319
<v Speaker 2>a healthier, happier life. If you enjoy a slight change

0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:18.040
<v Speaker 2>of plans. My guess is that you'll probably enjoy Limitless too.

0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:21.480
<v Speaker 2>If you're curious to hear more about my experience filming

0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:24.200
<v Speaker 2>a TV show with Chris, I'll be doing a live

0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:27.800
<v Speaker 2>Instagram Q and A this Friday, August fifteenth at ten

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:31.640
<v Speaker 2>thirty am Pacific time. You can find me at Doctor

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:36.320
<v Speaker 2>Maya Schunker. That's d r m a ya Sha n Kar.

0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:40.120
<v Speaker 2>I'd never filmed a TV show before because I'm a

0:01:40.160 --> 0:01:43.520
<v Speaker 2>normal person, and so I found it fascinating to see

0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:46.399
<v Speaker 2>what goes on behind the scenes to make these kinds

0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:49.520
<v Speaker 2>of productions happen. I cannot wait for you to see

0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 2>this show. We had so much fun making it again.

0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:57.840
<v Speaker 2>It premieres tomorrow, Friday, August fifteenth, on Hulu and Disney Plus.
