Therapist and author Sam Jolman joins Dr. Glenn and Phyllis Hill to discuss the topic of masculine sexuality. They discuss the ways men's sexual identities are shaped by early experiences, cultural messages, and religious teachings. Sam shares stories and insights on how men can reclaim their sexuality by embracing vulnerability, addressing shame, and learning to see sex as a form of play rather than performance. The conversation also touches on common challenges in sexual relationships, the importance of open communication, and how better sexual education can lead to deeper emotional connections.

In this special episode of Brain in a Vat, Brad Duchaine from the Psychological and Brain Sciences Department at Dartmouth discusses prosopometamorphopsia (PMO) – a condition where individuals see distorted faces. The episode explores various manifestations of PMO, including seeing demonic features, dragons, or entirely different faces, and distinguishes it from prosopagnosia (face blindness). It delves into the neurological basis of PMO, touching upon structural and functional differences in the brains of those affected. We discuss the significant impact PMO and prosopagnosia have on individuals' social interactions and quality of life, as well as potential management techniques such as using glasses or colored lights to reduce distortions.   00:00 Introduction and Guest Presentation 00:20 Exploring the Case of Face Distortion 03:19 Understanding the Nature of Distortions 05:49 Comparing Prosopagnosia and PMO 07:17 The Role of Visual System in Face Recognition 10:01 Impact of Face Recognition on Social Interactions 14:16 The Spectrum of Face Recognition Abilities 16:20 The Role of AI and Hallucinations in Face Recognition 23:48 Understanding the Diagnosis of Face Recognition Disorders 30:20 Understanding Prosopagnosia: Prevalence and Characteristics 31:59 The Mystery of PMO: Prevalence and Need for More Research 32:46 Exploring the Impact of Prosopagnosia and PMO on Social and Sexual Relationships 33:23 The Intersection of PMO and Other Psychiatric Conditions 37:03 The Struggles and Challenges of Living with Prosopagnosia and PMO 41:02 Potential Treatments and Coping Mechanisms for PMO 51:22 The Neurological Basis of PMO and Prosopagnosia 54:51 Testing and Characterizing PMO: A Deep Dive into Research Methods 59:54 Understanding the Perception and Processing of Faces in PMO

How is it possible that so many people believe that Donald Trump won the 2020 presidential election? How is it humanly possible? How is it possible that some still believe that getting vaccinated for COVID-19 is a bad thing? After all the information published, all the data available, how is it possible that there are people walking about who fervently believe such things? And I am not talking about just a few. Sadly, I am talking about a whole bunch of people.This podcast examines the neurological basis of how it is that people can believe things that are so unbelievable.

So we know how trauma works - but how does it impact our brain structures to elicit semi-rigid trauma reactions that are intricate enough to be considered full "personalities?" Today, we're talking neural networks, Schema Theory, and Healing the Fragmented Selves of Trauma Survivors by Janina Fisher. If you've been wondering why you keep failing at trauma recovery, you might want to tell your Git Shit Done self to listen up.

Reflex arcs, lower motor neurones, upper motor neurones, the cerebellum, basal ganglia, the frontal cortex and even decussations get a mention.

I love Paul’s curiosity about mental health, psychology, and neuroscience. We sat down at the Centre for Social Innovation, which is where we met, on the upstairs patio of the Regent Park location. He is prepping for his new book to be released, which will be a very interactive journey populating the content around the book in curious ways, through public story telling events and conversations with others (like me) about mental other. It was a privilege for me to have this conversation with him about depression. We veer into a few different directions because, like I said, he is so curious, and just being around him and his curiosity gets me all fired up to talk about this. There are some basic conversations out there about mental health and then there are conversations that are more holistic and nuanced. This, I think, is more of a nuanced conversation about anxiety and depression.

Summary: Dr. Cano is a Navy veteran and licensed psychologist in the states of Colorado and Hawaii. She is the founder and clinical director of Neurofeedback Colorado Springs. In the Navy, she served with VF-101, a fighter squadron based in Virginia Beach, VA. After leaving the Navy, she returned to Colorado Springs to finish her education. She received her Bachelor’s in Sociology/Criminology from From CSU-Pueblo. In addition, she holds a certificate in Forensic Criminology. Her Master’s and Doctorate are in Clinical Psychology from the University of the Rockies. She spent 3 years (5,000 hours) working with and being trained by a Board Certified Pediatric Neuropsychologist in Colorado Springs. This gave her experience in neuropsychological assessment and rehabilitation of highly complex children and adults, most of whom suffered from an array of DSM diagnoses. This is also where she was introduced to and trained in neurofeedback. As a retired Navy veteran, she works extensively with the veteran population and their families, advocating for a holistic assessment and treatment approach for our veteran population. Additionally, she serves as the founder and president of the Neuro-Therapy Foundation; a 501c3 created to raise funds for the rehabilitation of PTSD and mTBI through a combination treatment of neurofeedback and psychotherapy.   In This Particular Episode You Will Learn: Blair's background and military experience Internal and external stigma against seeking mental health counseling in the veteran and military population Need for education about what PTSD is in the veteran population The neurological changes that occur with PTSD Neuroplasticity and the brain's ability to adapt and regenerate The change in identity of a transitioning service member Interventions for PTSD and their effectiveness Neurofeedback and Biofeedback explained Types of brainwaves and how they impact veteran mental health Links and Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Blairs guest posts on the Head Space and Timing Blog: What Really Happens During and After a Traumatic Brain Injury?
