Your brain may be stuck in survival mode. That could be why fatigue, brain fog, and poor sleep refuse to budge no matter what you try. People with Long COVID, ME/CFS, and chronic fatigue often do everything right: clean up their diet, run labs, try every supplement, and they still don't recover. In this conversation, Patrick Porter, PhD, founder of BrainTap, explains why nervous system regulation may be the piece that keeps getting skipped. We cover how stress recovery, brainwave training, sleep quality, and brain fitness affect energy production, mental clarity, and the body's ability to heal. In this episode, you'll learn: Why chronic stress is often less of a problem than a lack of recovery How nervous system dysregulation can keep the body stuck in fight-or-flight mode The connection between brainwaves, energy production, and brain fog Why sleep quality matters more than simply spending more hours in bed How light, sound, and brainwave training are used to support neuroplasticity Practical strategies that may help improve focus, resilience, recovery, and sleep Guest: Patrick Porter, PhD is an award-winning author, speaker, and founder of BrainTap, a neuroscience-based platform specializing in brain fitness, neuroplasticity, and brainwave entrainment technology. Backed by 30 plus clinical studies and trusted by over 120,000 users and 3,000 health clinics worldwide, his work has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, CNN, and the Joe Rogan Experience.

The Brain Fitness Coach: Judy Hahn's Science of Stress Recovery On this episode of the Make Mental Health Matter Show with host Kelli Melissa Reinhardt, with special guest Judy Hahn. Little bit about Judy's story from her: My fascination with brain health and entrainment began over 37 years ago. Today, that passion is my primary focus. I now help individuals and practitioners support brain fitness, stress recovery, and nervous system regulation using non-invasive, science-based tools that spark real, measurable change. I work with two core technologies: ~ A brain fitness device that uses light and sound to gently guide the brain into optimal states for relaxation, focus, deep sleep, and emotional regulation. It supports neuroplasticity, cognitive performance, and long-term brain health. ~ NeuralChek, an HRV-based tool that measures the variation between heartbeats to assess the health of the body's regulatory systems. It provides real-time insight into stress load, recovery capacity, and overall adaptability — making it ideal for personalized wellness plans and tracking long-term progress. Together, these tools offer a comprehensive approach to brain-body balance, stress management, and nervous system optimization. What excites me most is how seamlessly they complement the work of chiropractors, integrative doctors, and other holistic practitioners, but so many individuals use the in-home device for anxiety, PTSD, ADD/ADHD, autism, concussion recovery, poor sleep, cognitive decline, addiction, and more. It's also widely used by peak performers seeking an edge in focus, clarity, and recovery. Short bio: Judy Hahn was trained as an Integrative Nutritional Health Coach and has spent 7 years as a Functional Wellness Coach, often addressing the gut-brain connection of her clients' conditions. She is known as The Brain Fitness Coach working with an innovative in-home brain health device that reduces stress & anxiety, and better sleep, mood & mental clarity. She is currently working with many medical professionals, chiropractors and mental health providers to be able to offer this device to a greater number of individuals and clinics.

Most people cannot use their full potential, because they are limited by (mental & emotional) straitjackets. They are overwhelmed, feel not good enough and are not making a difference. This Brain Sickness is the consequence of living someone else's life. You can dismantle the straitjackets by unleashing and using your uniqueness. Brain Fitness trains you to live your own life. Your wellbeing, performance and creativity will significantly improve.See videos explaining what I do as well as masterclasses to purchase.https://braingym.fitness/masterclass/Website: https://braingym.fitness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/arnold.beekesYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BrainGymFitnessInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/arnold.beekes/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@podcastercoach
My guest, who is a Dutch citizen talked to me from his space in Romania where it was about 3 p.m. while I sat in Florida in in the morning at a bout 8 a.m. Notwithstanding the time difference, we had an interesting conversation that you would not want to miss. My guest had written somewhere: “Conformity was an integral part of my upbringing. My father was a military officer, both in his work and at home. Still, I was very different from my fellow students at primary school. I was complying with my father's norms and not with those of my friends or school. I was different in the sense that I always had a short haircut (remember: military coup) and was not allowed to wear jeans. This was hard, especially in the sixties. Also, I wanted to play football, but that was not allowed, I had to play (field) hockey. If I complied in every area of my life (school, gardening, polishing shoes, sports etc.), he would not be angry, then it was sort of okay…This means that from a very young age, I was conditioned to meet the expectations of others (parents, teachers, professors, or bosses). I was conditioned to live someone else's life. To fit in is the holy grail of our society. It is very likely that you also are expected to fit in. It is time to dismantle the straitjackets.” Now, he will tell us how to ‘dismantle the straitjackets' in our lives as he talks with Dr. Canute White on Canyouth's Exploration: “your topic in a podcast” Guest's Link: https://braingym.fitness/masterclass/ Now, subscribe to our YouTube channel ( https://youtube.com/channel/UCoc-QGLBLQxIYRa7N-OaRqA).

In this weeks episode I interview founder of the The Quiet Mind Foundation Dr Marvin Berman Ph.D., C.B.T., he is specialised in Photobiomodulation psychology and EEG Biofeedback expert. Alzheimers is set to become one of the biggest health issues Key Projections: World Health Organization (WHO): Estimates suggest that the number of people living with dementia, including Alzheimer's disease, will reach 65.7 million by 2030. Alzheimer's Association: Projections indicate that the number of Americans age 65 and older with Alzheimer's disease may grow from 6.2 million in 2021 to 8.5 million by 2030. Global Prevalence: By 2030, it is expected that there will be around 76 million people worldwide living with dementia, primarily Alzheimer's disease. These estimates highlight the growing public health challenge posed by Alzheimer's disease as populations age. Efforts in research, treatment, and prevention are critical to addressing this impending increase in cases. In this episode we fight back against this coming tide. We discuss the history of PBM and it's application in a wide range of neurodegenerative diseases from Alzheimers and dementia to Parkinsons, stroke and aneurysm to traumatic brain injury to brain fog and the effects of long covid and beyond. If you have a brain and you want to preserve it then this is a must listen to episode. We now have the technology and the research to reverse cognitive decline, no longer is the diagnosis of one of these terrible diseases, a death sentence. We can proactively address many of the underlying issues. We discuss the thesis of the 36 holes in the roof approach that Dr Dale Bredesen (a previous guest on the show) teaches in addressing cognitive decline and how PBM covers off 34 of these and how combined with lifestyle interventions and supplementation etc we have the power to save our brains. BIO Dr. Marvin Berman earned his Master's and PhD in Psychoeducational Processes from Temple University, where he studied group and organizational behavior. He obtained certification in Bioenergetic Analysis at the Philadelphia Institute for Bioenergetic Analysis in 1983. He has participated in extensive post-graduate training and in Systems-Centered Therapy, and the Feldenkrais Method. He was certified in EEG biofeedback in 2003. Dr. Berman is a recognized thought leader in the application of photobiomodulation and EEG biofeedback and related technologies to better understand neurodegenerative, neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders. Dr. Berman consults with academic neuroscience researchers, healthcare providers, and integrative healthcare clinics on the application of photobiomodulation and neurofeedback.
