We live in a world that glorifies speed, noise, and constant doing. But what if the secret to thinking better, leading better, and living better is actually found in the moments when we stop? In this episode, Dr. Bray dives into the neuroscience of stillness; why your brain needs quiet to perform at its best, and how doing nothing may be the most productive thing you can do. He will share the story of a high-performing executive who thought he was burning out, when in fact, his brain was begging for a break. We'll explore what happens in your mind when you slow down, how silence rewires your focus, and why some of your best ideas appear in the shower, on a walk, or in moments of calm. If your brain feels full but your clarity is fading, this episode will change how you think about rest. Because stillness isn't the absence of work, it's the space where your best thinking begins.   Quotes by Dr. Bray "Rest is not a luxury. Stillness is not a luxury. It's a biology." "Because in all the noise of modern life, stillness is where clarity, insight, and performance are born." "Stillness isn't the absence of productivity. It's the very foundation of it." "Your brain actually performs better when you slow down and stop."

La declaración de Antifa como organización terrorista por parte de Donald Trump abre la puerta a la persecución penal de todo aquel que se oponga y proteste contra la deriva autoritaria de la Casa Blanca. Antifa no es una organización como tal, no tiene estructura ni organización concreta, sino una ideología que lucha contra el fascismo y que, con las políticas autoritarias de Donald Trump en su segundo mandato, ha vuelto a cobrar cierto protagonismo. Con Andrés Gil, corresponsal de elDiario.es en Estados Unidos, conocemos mejor en qué consiste Antifa en Estados Unidos. Escuchamos también el testimonio del profesor e historiador norteamericano Mark Bray, autor del libro Antifa, y que llegó a España huyendo de Estados Unidos en octubre tras recibir amenazas de la ultraderecha. Natalia Chientaroli, subdirectora de elDiario.es, que entrevistó a Bray, nos ayuda a entender mejor las claves de su libro. *** Si te gusta este podcast, necesitamos tu apoyo.

We have all been there. The job that didn't happen, the plan that fell apart, the moment that left you wondering, what now? In this episode, Dr. Bray explores what happens in your brain and body when life doesn't go as planned, and why learning to let go, reframe, and keep moving forward is one of the most powerful things you can do for your mental health and resilience. You will learn why holding onto anger, regret, or comparison quietly drains your brain's energy, how your nervous system responds to disappointment, and how small mindset shifts can rewire your focus and restore clarity. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and real-life stories of growth, Dr. Bray shares why everyone's path looks different and why comparing your journey to someone else's will always leave you behind. If you have been feeling stuck, disappointed, or worn down, this episode will remind you that nothing is wasted. Your brain is still learning, adapting, and building strength with every challenge you face. Sometimes, the things that do not work out are exactly what lead you where you are meant to go. Quotes by Dr. Bray "Resilience isn't about bouncing back. It's about becoming someone new because of what you've been through." "Strength doesn't come from holding on. It comes from releasing what no longer serves you." "Forgiveness and acceptance aren't fluffy emotional ideas — they're biological resets for your brain."

Everyone loves a good personality test. Whether it is the Myers-Briggs, the Enneagram, or that quiz you took online that told you which TV character you are most like, there is something satisfying about seeing yourself neatly described in a few short sentences. But here is the question: are these tests actually telling you who you are, or just giving you a clever label? In this episode, Dr. Bray unpacks the science behind our obsession with personality tests. You will learn why we are wired to love them, how the brain's reward systems light up when we feel recognized, and why the Barnum effect makes even vague descriptions feel spot-on. We will also take a closer look at the history of personality testing, from Hippocrates and the four humors to the modern-day workplace. More importantly, you will hear why taking these tests too seriously can backfire. Neuroscience shows that personality is not fixed. The brain is plastic, meaning it is constantly adapting and capable of change. When you lock yourself into a rigid type, you may be limiting your own growth without even realizing it. Dr. Bray keeps it practical and entertaining, weaving together science, history, and a bit of humor. You will walk away with a fresh perspective on personality tests, knowing when to treat them as fun and when to be cautious about the labels they hand you. So if you have ever wondered whether your four letters define you or if you are destined to always be "the extrovert" or "the thinker," hit play. This conversation will convince you that you are far more than a type, and that the most exciting part of your personality is how it continues to grow and change. Quotes by Dr. Bray "The real danger is not in taking these tests, but in taking them too seriously." "The appeal of personality tests has less to do with their accuracy and more to do with what they promise us." "This is just who I am" — that's the fixed mindset we need to challenge." "Hold those results lightly and treat them as a starting point for exploration."

The New Yorker staff writer Andrew Marantz joins Tyler Foggatt for the latest installment of “How Bad Is It?,” a regular checkup on the health of American democracy. Their guests are the Rutgers historians Mark Bray and Yesenia Barragan, a married couple who recently left the United States after Bray became the target of a right-wing doxing campaign. Bray and Barragan share the events leading up to their decision to leave the country with their family, including the death threats that followed Bray's addition to a right-wing “professor watch list” and the portrayal of his work in conservative media as promoting political violence. Bray, who is the author of “Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook,” also speaks with Tyler and Andrew about his research into militant antifascism and how those ideas resonate in Donald Trump's second Presidential term. They discuss the debates his work has sparked over political violence, free speech, and how his arguments about antifascism challenge conventional ideas of liberalism and academic freedom. This week's reading: “When the Government Stops Defending Civil Rights,” by Eyal Press “What if the Big Law Firms Hadn't Caved to Trump?,” by Fabio Bertoni  “Trump and the Presidency That Wouldn't Shut Up,” by Jill Lepore “Why Biden's White House Press Secretary Is Leaving the Democratic Party,” by Isaac Chotiner “Why Trump Tore Down the East Wing,” by Adam Gopnik Tune in to The Political Scene wherever you get your podcasts.  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

We have all heard it. Someone looks at you with a smile and says, "Just be yourself." Nice idea, but have you ever tried it? It turns out being yourself is not nearly as simple as it sounds. In this episode, Dr. Bray digs into the science of authenticity and why the version of you that shows up at work, at home, or even at dinner with friends is often a carefully constructed blend of performance, prediction, and protection. You will hear how the brain's prefrontal cortex, default mode network, and even the amygdala shape your sense of self and sometimes keep you from showing up as the real you. We will explore why decades of cultural conditioning, family expectations, and even old survival strategies can bury your authentic self under layers of habit. More importantly, Dr. Bray shares the practical side of neuroscience: how neuroplasticity allows you to rewire your brain and excavate the parts of you that feel the most genuine. So whether you are leading a team, building a career, or simply trying to feel at home in your own skin, hit play. Dr. Bray will show you how science can help you do it, and maybe even convince you that the project of becoming yourself is the most worthwhile work you will ever take on. Quotes by Dr. Bray "Just be yourself" sounds easy, but your brain is running layers of predictions, protections, and performances that you may not even notice" "Your sense of self is shaped by repeated neural pathways—the habits of thought and behavior that you practice again and again" "Sometimes you uncover trauma responses—protective adaptations that once kept you safe but no longer serve you"
