“When medical doctors or psychiatrists entertain incoherent ideas about the mind and body, they make bad decisions about how to assist us in being well.” - Diane O'Leary. Understanding how the mind and body are connected in mental health and medicine is critical, especially considering that when we fail to do so, many are harmed. Despite drawing on the Biopsychosocial model for the last few decades, psychiatry hasn't gotten much closer to elucidating the connections between the mind, body, and society. Today, Diane O'Leary explains to us psychiatry's big philosophy problem and how it leads to huge ethical concerns. In an effort to ‘not be dualists' psychiatry often tries to lump the mental and physical together, but in doing so, fails to approach clients as ‘holists'. Here's how we can bring the person back into mental health. In this episode we discuss: why medically unexplained physiological symptoms get labeled as ‘in your head' why the way to be a ‘holist' is not about eradicating dualism or separating mind and body why the biopsychosocial model is incoherent and doesn't do justice to patients the roots of bad philosophy in psychiatry women's health and the history of manipulation in psychosomatic medicine why psychiatry needs to reevaluate its bioethics and respect patients' rights and personhood Bio Diane O'Leary, PhD is a philosopher whose research focuses on medicine and psychiatry.

Despite centuries of study, Schizophrenia and its causes remain complicated to comprehend. The current methods of treatment target primarily the brain's dopamine pathways, and while they suffice in resolving acute psychosis, only 13.5% of patients with Schizophrenia fully recover enough to live a "normal" life.To understand the nature of severe mental illness and to hopefully move towards a better prognosis for our patients, a more multidisciplinary approach is needed. Dr. Adonis Sfera is a Professor of Behavioral Health at Loma Linda University, a Forensic Psychiatrist par Excellence, and one of the leading researchers into potential immunogenic causes of Schizophrenia and other mental illnesses. In surveying the myriad contributors to this fearsome illness that range from interleukins to social isolation, we can start to see the fundamental interconnectedness of all aspects of medicine: that the body, the mind, and the social environment, usually seen as separate, are merely parts of a cohesive system.Music: https://pixabay.com/music/id-112777/ Episode Team:Guest - Adonis Sfera, MDHost - Peter Bota (MS2)Script Writer - Peter Bota (MS2)Audio - Katrina Kao (MS2), Kristen Masada (MS1), Justin Yan (MS1)Producers - Peter Bota (MS2), Yuu Ohno (MS2)Director - Vy Han, MD

I am currently in a secure relationship with a baby and a loving Fiancé and I really, truly owe a lot of it to the painful, heart-wrenching, life changing lessons of the break-ups I had experienced prior to this partnership. This however took years of work that I have condensed into this podcast (and some more resources on the @vertue_podcast instagram page). I do think that I have too much experience with painful break-ups (of which I only blame myself for), however all that being said they were truly the source so much transformation that no formal education could have ever taught me and because of that I am almost in favour of them. If you are going through it right now please remember at the heart of this pain is the gift of emotional resilience that will enhance every aspect of your life moving forward.

Come along for a fascinating conversation with Dr. Tomer Anbar and Duane Johnson with the Institutes of Health. We caught up with them during the WCI Conference in Orlando, Florida. Duane Johnson obtained his Bachelor of Science degree in Health Services management from Indiana University Bloomington. Dr. Anbar studied clinical psychology,  psychodynamic psychiatry, and group psychotherapy.  While conducting research in Mexico City, he stumbled upon an interesting phenomenon during a specific time of the year: hospitalizations spiked at the same time birds started showing up dead. He discovered an interesting correlation. We learn that Dr. Anbar was among the first to study the biopsychosocial model of care and grew up learning from his dad in therapeutic communities. What do we want in workers' compensation? Proven clinical outcomes, accelerated MMI, and decreased claim costs. For more information about Institutes of Health: https://institutesofhealth.org/¡Muchas Gracias! Thank you for listening.

In today's episode, we're delving into a topic that's close to my heart: the incredible power of the nervous system and how it shapes our experiences of pain and healing. As a nervous system coach, I've witnessed countless transformations in people's lives as they embark on the path of healing through understanding and harnessing the incredible wisdom of their nervous systems. In this episode, we're going to explore the mind-boggling world of the biopsychosocial lens and how it can empower us to conquer chronic pain. Key Takeaways from Episode 66: -We dive deep into the biopsychosocial approach and how it revolutionizes our understanding of pain. -I explain phantom limb pain and how it explains how pain can be created without physical damage. -How pain perception is much more than just physical sensation. -How your emotions influence your pain perception. We explore how shifting from fear to joy can impact your physical experience of pain -Negative thought patterns, catastrophizing, and perfectionism can amplify chronic pain. We'll uncover how these tendencies are often trauma responses and can be reshaped. -I discuss the incredible power of reprogramming your subconscious mind. When you change your beliefs, you change your life, and yes, that includes your experience of pain. Understanding the biopsychosocial lens isn't just about healing your pain; it's about evolving your brain and taking charge of your life. Dive into the literature, educate yourself, and remember: you have the power to reprogram your subconscious mind.

Stress: We've all felt it, but have you ever wondered about the real toll it takes on your body over time? Today, we delve deep into the under-discussed health topic of 'Allostatic Load.' In simpler terms it refers to the accumulated effects of stress on your body, the balance between our fight-or-flight reactions and the relaxation processes. Ever felt extra jittery after an emotional upheaval, even when you thought a workout would help? Well, there's a reason for that. I'll discuss how stress, from various sources, stacks up in your system. I also touch on how to measure this "stress load" - from the rhythm of your heartbeat (HRV) to the general state of your immune function. Why should you care? The implications of a high allostatic load are immense, spanning from chronic diseases, and cognitive challenges, to unexpected weight gain and more. But don't jump off the treadmill just yet! I'm not advocating quitting exercise. Instead, I will walk you through the strategies to ease this load using the Biopsychosocial model. In today's episode, I'll also share personal stories (hint: stress-triggered acne), practical relaxation breathing techniques, the significance of our mindsets and appraisals, and the influence of our social circles. Dive in with us as we help you transform big stressors into little ones and smaller stressors into non-issues. After all, understanding stress is the first step in managing it. Keep calm and carry on listening

In this introductory episode of The Vertue Podcast, I, unpack the concept of wellness beyond the familiar narrative. I introduce you to the biopsychosocial model—a holistic way of understanding health. But, we go beyond that, venturing into ‘my' unique BPSES model which includes the economic and spiritual dimensions of well-being. We'll reflect on why our society often sees health in a purely physical light, even making snap judgments based on someone's physical appearance, and I'll challenge you to shift this perspective. By the end of this episode, I hope you'll start seeing wellness as more than just gym sessions or diets, but as a combination of our physical, mental, social, economic, and spiritual lives. Also, there's a bit of homework! I want you to reflect on where you might be emphasising one aspect of the BPSES model over others. Prepare for a journey of understanding health in a holistic and interconnected manner, and don't forget to send in your questions for future episodes! Join me as we redefine what it truly means to be well. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thevertuepodcast/message

He is also a member of the General University Ethics Panel, a Chartered Scientist and a BASES Accredited Sport and Exercise Scientist (support & pedagogy). Andrew has worked as a sport physiologist and coach developer at British Cycling and supports others in developing performance environments. Andrew's research philosophy is driven by impact and translation of research into practice. Specifically, he uses Implementation and Behavioural Change Science to explore mental health in sport, 'merging' his practical experience with evidence-based practice with the aim of helping others to develop more effective sporting systems. We discuss a range of topics related to Andrew's research and experience, including biopsychosocial factors influencing engagement and performance and the mental health of athletes.

In this episode, I'm delighted to be joined by Prof Marc Jones, Dr Carla Meijen and Dr Martin Turner. We discuss The Theory of Challenge and Threat States in Athletes (TCTSA) which provides a psychophysiological framework for how athletes anticipate motivated performance situations. Marc led the original research, along with Carla, in 2009 proposing this theory. Marc, Carla and Martin have conducted many years of research on Challenge and Threat states within a number of competitive environments, including sporting environments. Marc is a Professor of Psychology at Manchester Metropolitan University. He is interested in stress, health and performance and particularly how people perform under pressure. Marc is a registered Sport and Exercise Psychologist and a Chartered Psychologist. Carla is a registered Sport and Exercise Psychologist and Associate Professor in Applied Psychology at St Mary's University, London where she also leads the MSc in applied Sport Psychology. Carla's research focuses predominantly on the psychological demands of endurance performance, stress in sport and Challenge and Threat states. Martin is a Reader in Psychology at Manchester Metropolitan University specialising in stress and emotion in performance situations. Martin is particularly interested in the psychophysiological reactions to pressured performance and how research can be used to help individuals reach their potential.

I heard Brendan Mouatt speak at a recent conference I attended and from the moment I heard him speak, I had to get him on the podcast.His talk detailed how common approaches to pain, chronic pain in particular, were failing patients and how many of those patients felt lost and experienced years of unnecessary pain.In this weeks podcast, I had the opportunity to sit down with Brendan 1 on 1 and to dive deeper into the idea around treating pain through a Biopsychosocial model and how doing so could and often did help people remove long held beliefs around their pain and ability and see them move forwards pain free.
