A few episodes ago, episode 212, I conversed with John Beggs about how criticality might be an important dynamic regime of brain function to optimize our cognition and behavior. Today we continue and extend that exploration with a few other folks in the criticality world. Woodrow Shew is a professor and runs the Shew Lab at the University of Arkansas. Keith Hengen is an associate professor and runs the Hengen Lab at Washington University in St. Louis Missouri. Together, they are Hengen and Shew on a recent review paper in Neuron, titled Is criticality a unified setpoint of brain function? In the review they argue that criticality is a kind of homeostatic goal of neural activity, describing multiple properties and signatures of criticality, they discuss multiple testable predictions of their thesis, and they address the historical and current controversies surrounding criticality in the brain, surveying what Woody thinks is all the past studies on criticality, which is over 300. And they offer a account of why many of these past studies did not find criticality, but looking through a modern lens they most likely would. We discuss some of the topics in their paper, but we also dance around their current thoughts about things like the nature and implications of being nearer and farther from critical dynamics, the relation between criticality and neural manifolds, and a lot more. You get to experience Woody and Keith thinking in real time about these things, which I hope you appreciate. Shew Lab. Hengen Lab.

Send us a textToo many transformational programs focus on individual breakthroughs and ignore the collective. But true evolution doesn't happen in isolation—it happens in community. It creates a ripple. And if your personal growth doesn't ripple out into the world, it's not transformation. It's performance.In this unfiltered, truth-telling episode of The Cosmic Valkyrie Podcast, Lynn Louise challenges the self-help industry's obsession with “solo healing” and spiritual bypassing—and invites you into something far more powerful: real, embodied, collective evolution.You'll hear why “just focus on yourself” is an outdated survival mechanism rooted in privilege, not empowerment. And why authentic transformation must engage with the world around you—not escape from it.

You've been told your hormones make you irrational.That menopause means cognitive decline, your emotions are just chemistry gone wrong, and your brain is simply too complicated to understand.Science says otherwise.This week's guest, Dr. Sarah McKay, is a neuroscientist, author, and brain health expert who's spent her career dismantling the myths we've been told about women's brains. From the idea that we're slaves to our hormones to the fear that menopause means inevitable decline, Sarah brings data, nuance, and hope to conversations that have been shaped by outdated stereotypes for far too long.We explore:Why male and female brains are more similar than different, and how cultural context shapes the differences we do seeThe surprising truth about PMS: how rates vary from 12% in France to 90% in IranWhy the stereotype that women are "more emotional" isn't backed by scienceHow your brain actually changes during menopauseThe real relationship between hormones, sleep, and brain fogWhy early puberty affects girls and boys so differentlyWhat brain networks do when estrogen declinesThe truth about HRT and brain health: what the data actually showsHow expectations and cultural narratives create the experiences we haveSarah doesn't dismiss women's struggles or minimize real symptoms. Instead, she offers something more powerful: the understanding that our brains are not broken, fragile, or at the mercy of our biology. They're sophisticated, adaptive, and capable of remarkable reorganization throughout our lives.This isn't about toxic positivity or dismissing genuine challenges. It's about recognizing that the stories we've been told about women's brains, that we're irrational, unstable, or declining, aren't just wrong. They're actively shaping our reality.Love,Sarah Ann

Supercharge your mitochondria, slash inflammation, and boost energy with one of the most overlooked hacks in human performance. This episode reveals how just 15 minutes of oxygen-based exercise can radically improve metabolism, brain optimization, and even reverse chronic conditions, without expensive gear or endless protocols. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Brad Pitzele, founder of One Thousand Roads and creator of the LEO System, an affordable and science-backed way to do Exercise With Oxygen Therapy (EWOT) at home. After nearly dying from autoimmune illness and failed functional medicine treatments, Brad used this oxygen-based biohacking tool to fully reboot his health. His story and system offer breakthrough potential for anyone facing fatigue, inflammation, or looking to upgrade energy, resilience, and longevity. You'll learn: • How EWOT works differently from hyperbaric oxygen and why it's faster • Why brain fog, poor sleep, and chronic inflammation all trace back to oxygen supply • How oxygen hacking activates neuroplasticity, detox pathways, and energy production • When to stack with ketosis, red light, nootropics, and mitochondrial supplements • How elite athletes and chronically ill patients both use this protocol • Why “Smarter Not Harder” starts with oxygen-fueled mitochondrial upgrades This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, functional medicine, brain optimization, metabolism, fasting, supplements, and longevity. Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade is the top podcast for people who want to take control of their biology, extend their longevity, and optimize every system in the body and mind.

Did you know that your daily habits directly affect the speed at which your brain is ageing and your risk of getting Alzheimer's disease in the future?   This week, I'm delighted to welcome Dr Darshan Shah to the podcast. Darshan is a medical doctor, a board-certified surgeon, an expert in preventive health and the founder of Next Health, the first health optimisation and longevity centre to offer life-extending and enhancing technology and treatments.   Whilst working as a surgeon, Darshan became seriously ill with type diabetes, hypertension, an autoimmune condition, and he was told he had a 50% chance of dying in the next 25 years. This wake-up call came just as his first son was born. Rather than accepting a life dependent on medications, he immersed himself in functional medicine and completely reversed his conditions in just eight months.    During our conversation, you'll discover:  The 5 things you could start doing today that would actually increase your chances of getting Alzheimer's The 80/20 principle for health and how focusing on just 20% of interventions can deliver 80% of the results Why sitting for more than four hours increases your risk of death by 15% Why becoming the "boss of your own biology" through tracking key biomarkers could be life-saving How inflammation from your gut and mouth can directly impact your brain health decades later Darshan's top supplement recommendations for longevity This conversation challenges the notion that we can simply live intuitively in today's environment and expect to stay healthy. Darshan argues that in our current toxic world, taking an active role in monitoring and optimising our health isn't just beneficial, it's essential.  Whether you're interested in detailed health tracking or just want to learn the basics of staying well, this conversation is packed with practical advice that could transform how you think about your health.

Andy Woodhull! Comedian! Friend! Delight! More! Andy has a new special out now called "Beach Brain"! We have a great chat and you can have a great listen! ABOUT BEACH BRAIN: Two decades into his comedy career, Andy still has as much fun on stage as he did at his first open mic in 2003. All seven of his albums are time capsules of where Andy was in his life when they were written. His jokes have played over 50 million times on Pandora and are on rotation on Sirius Radio. His DryBar comedy special on YouTube has over 12 million views. The name Beach Brain was inspired by fellow comedian Dave Waite who joked that Andy (originally from Elkhart, Indiana) developed a perpetually positive attitude after moving by the beach.  This hour of comedy was crafted during one of the happiest periods of Andy's life, and features his signature style of clean humor with a sharp edge, while adding a Beach Brained optimistic spin. Calling it his silliest album yet, Andy says “My hope is it will appeal to like-minded Beach Brains, and give non Beach Brains a little taste of life by the water.” On the album, Andy explores the humor in second marriages, gaslighting, and buying toilet paper in bulk. . ABOUT ANDY: Los Angeles-based stand-up comedian, writer, and television host Andy Woodhull was the first comedian to make his network television debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. He has also appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Conan, Live at Gotham, and Comedy Central. He has written for SYFY's The Movie Show, was featured in two episodes, and currently hosts Totally Funny Animals on the CW Network. And this is only the FIRST half of our chat.

Lonely? Your Brain's Begging for Connection   How Dr. Paul Zak Decoded the Neuroscience of Trust and Human Connection What if the secret to happiness, purpose, and even financial success lies in your brain's chemistry—and in how often you hug others? Have you ever wondered why we trust some people instantly and others not at all? Why love feels so healing—and why certain leaders inspire loyalty while others trigger fear? At the heart of these mysteries is a powerful brain chemical: oxytocin. “Oxytocin is a gift you have to give to somebody else.” – Dr. Paul Zak In this Richer Soul episode, Dr. Paul Zak, affectionately known as Dr. Love, reveals how understanding our brain's biology can transform the way we lead, parent, connect, and even build wealth.

Send us a textEver wonder why your postpartum clients feel like they're in a fog, forgetful, or just plain different? It's not just "mom brain" as we know it. In this eye-opening episode, we're completely shifting the conventional understanding of the postpartum brain and diving deep into the profound neurological rewiring that happens after birth. Forget surface-level fixes; we're talking about real, lasting solutions for postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and maternal burnout by understanding the biological brilliance behind a mother's transformation. This isn't about "fixing" women; it's about seeing their bodies and brains with the reverence they deserve, and equipping postpartum providers with the holistic care practices to truly heal their clients at the root.Check out this episode on the blog HERE. Key time stamps: 0:48: Postpartum brain is rewiring, not broken. 3:23: What happens to the brain in postpartum? Neurological transformation explained. 4:25: Increased diligence, heightened emotional sensitivity, disrupted memory & focus, decreased self-prioritization.5:30: Biologically appropriate functions without proper support lead to burnout, anxiety, rage. 6:46: The role of stress in brain rewiring – adaptive vs. chronic. Chronic stress creates maladaptive programming. 10:40: Mom brains prioritize survival and baby's needs, not broken. 11:29: Oxytocin strengthens memory of emotionally charged events. 12:24: Understanding intrusive thoughts: protection, not pathology. 15:28: How to support postpartum brain recovery: nutrition, nervous system regulation, repletion. 16:05: Why holistic approaches are crucial and why single strategies fail. 17:44: Body-based trauma release techniques like TRE therapy. 18:11: The importance of safe co-regulating relationships. 19:59: Consistent nutritional repletion is biochemical reality. 20:25: Sleep rhythm and restoration for active brain repair. 24:08: Reclaim mom brain: it's a superpower, not a problem. Postpartum rewiring makes mothers more intuitive, protective, efficient. NEXT STEPS:

What if the key to personal growth wasn't radical transformation—but tiny, consistent experiments? In this full-spectrum conversation, neuroscientist and Ness Labs founder Anne-Laure Le Cunff joins me to explore how to rewire our brains for curiosity, resilience, and sustainable growth. We talk about how our brains are hardwired for safety (and why that gets in the way of change), why embracing uncertainty is a learnable skill, and how to overcome the “insight trap”—where we understand a concept but still fail to appl y it. Anne-Laure shares tools from her book Tiny Experiments, including how to approach daily life more scientifically, balance structure with flexibility, and develop an identity rooted in exploration - not perfection. We also touch on creativity, burnout, goal-setting, and the neuroscience behind procrastination and decision-making.

Talking points: traumaThis week, I sit down with Tim Fletcher to explore the deep and often misunderstood world of complex trauma. We unpack how subtle childhood experiences like emotional neglect or identity suppression can shape our nervous systems, relationships, and sense of self for decades. Tim breaks down the science and psychology behind trauma and its complexity, and offers insights into how healing actually happens. If you've ever struggled with anxiety, emotional reactivity, or feeling disconnected, this one is for you.(00:00:00) – Introduction to Tim Fletcher and What Is Complex Trauma?(00:06:20) – Subtle Forms of Childhood Trauma(00:12:00) – Simple vs. Complex Trauma(00:19:20) – Adult Symptoms of Complex Trauma(00:28:10) – How Trauma Shapes the Brain(00:37:50) – Recovery and Co-regulation(00:54:00) – Presence, Addiction, and ConnectionTim Fletcher started helping people as a pastor over 30 years ago. When he experienced some significant personal trauma, he transitioned into the addiction treatment sector. Over the last 15 years through countless hours of counselling sessions, training in the various treatment programs and building on the research of Gabor Mate, he started to correlate the connection between Complex Trauma and life problems. Tim was guided by statistics that over 90% of people with addiction challenges suffer from Complex Trauma.

Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification: https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/ What if perfectionism isn't ambition, but a nervous system reflex for survival? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we're joined by returning guest Piper Rose of ShadowPlay Coaching to explore perfectionism and rejection sensitivity through a neuroscience and trauma-informed lens. We reframe perfectionism as a high-cost survival strategy rooted in complex trauma, societal conditioning, and early nervous system adaptations. Together, Elisabeth Kristof, Jennifer Wallace, and Piper unpack how perfectionistic behaviors can emerge as reflexive responses to rejection sensitivity dysphoria (RSD), relational trauma, and the need for social safety. You'll learn the neurobiology of rejection, the health costs of chronic perfectionism, and how to shift from performance and people-pleasing into embodied wholeness. The episode offers practical tools and empowering frameworks for understanding the somatic roots of perfectionism and reclaiming your internal safety and authenticity. This is a deeply validating conversation for anyone who's ever felt like they had to earn love, approval, or belonging through being “perfect.” Topics discussed in this episode: Why perfectionism is a survival response, not a personality trait How rejection sensitivity forms in the nervous system The difference between perfectionism and growth-oriented excellence Why our brains respond to social rejection like physical pain The “garden” metaphor for complex trauma and coping How societal systems reinforce performance-based self-worth Chronic illness and the cost of emotional suppression The link between self-sacrifice and autoimmune conditions Why the nervous system must be regulated before healing perfectionism How somatic work shifts self-rejection into self-acceptance The paradox of people-pleasing and codependency Reclaiming energy and creativity from high-resource coping mechanisms Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching program: https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/ To learn more about Piper Rose and Shadow Play coaching, head to https://piperrosecoaching.com/  Connect with Piper on Instagram by heading to https://www.instagram.com/shadowplaycoaching/ Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Find Trauma Rewired on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TraumaRewired Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use our exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

BGMania B-Sides #27 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bedroth is diving deep into Brain Lord, a lesser-known action RPG developed by Produce! and published by Enix for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System back in 1994. While Brain Lord may not have reached the same heights of popularity as some of its Enix brethren, its soundtrack, composed by Masanao Akahori, offers a surprisingly rich and varied experience that deserves more recognition. From somber dungeon melodies to upbeat overworld themes, this score captures the tone of the game's puzzle-heavy journey with nuance and charm.

Angela talks to Stuart Sandeman about the profound impact of breath on our emotional and physical well-being. They explore how trauma and life experiences can manifest in our bodies, particularly through breathing patterns, and discuss the importance of breathwork in releasing stored tension and emotions. Stuart also shares his personal journey of grief following the loss of his girlfriend and how breathwork helped him process his emotions. KEY TAKEAWAYS Breath and Emotion Connection: The way we breathe is closely linked to our emotional state. Short, shallow breathing often correlates with feelings of anxiety or fear, while deeper, more expansive breathing is associated with feelings of calm and joy. Breathing Archetypes: Individuals have different breathing patterns or archetypes that reflect their emotional and psychological states.  Impact of Trauma on Breath: Traumatic experiences can lead to physical tension and altered breathing patterns. This tension is often held in specific areas of the body Breathwork for Emotional Release: Engaging in breathwork can facilitate the release of stored emotions and trauma TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS [00:02:01] Breath and emotional release.
