Podcasts about Neuroplasticity

Relational Healing, Neuroplasticity, and the Power of Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy: An Interview with Dr. Alexa Altman, Ph.D. and Shira Myrow, LMFT In this episode, Curt and Katie chat with Dr. Alexa Altman and Shira Myrow, LMFT, about psychedelic-assisted therapy and how it supports trauma healing, neuroplasticity, and relational transformation. They explore how these treatments work, what integration really means, and how therapists can ethically and safely engage with this emerging field. About our guests:Dr. Alexa Altman and Shira Myrow, MFT, are co-founders of iPsychedelic Therapy. With backgrounds in trauma-informed psychology, spiritual counseling, and relational healing, they offer a holistic approach to psychedelic-assisted therapy that centers ethical care, integration, and transformational growth. Key takeaways: Psychedelics are not shortcuts—they act as amplifiers and accelerants in trauma work. Integration is a crucial part of psychedelic-assisted therapy and often overlooked. Clinicians must examine their own biases and seek robust training. Some clients are not appropriate for these treatments due to fragility or lack of therapeutic background. A safe therapeutic container, rigorous consent, and preparation are essential. Regulatory frameworks are still emerging and need clinician involvement.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks to Greg discuss the impact of diagnoses and labels on people's perception of their problems. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/greg-lawrence      Highlights from today's episode include: Greg said: “A lot of the things people consider to be integration didn't work for me... unless you address those automatic reactions at an unconscious level, things may continue to be the same. Transformation, to me, means personal transformation—transforming my experience of life for the better.” (0:08:18) Greg said: “Mindfulness is the process of noticing things, actively noticing novelty... If you want to be present at any time, you can simply notice what's around you and notice that you have a body... being present, being mindful, is a process that you strengthen by exercising it over and over again.” (0:28:16) Manon said: “You get a diagnosis, which you happen to believe, but then you make the diagnosis almost a second layer of a problem to the problem... it's almost like that has its own speed and life of its own, but you still have the same symptoms otherwise.” (0:12:44) ABOUT GREG LAWRENCE: Transformational and Psychedelic Integration Coach.

Alzheimer's is not inevitable—and it may even be optional. In this groundbreaking episode, you'll learn how to prevent, slow, and in some cases reverse cognitive decline using strategies that also enhance brain optimization, metabolism, and longevity. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey is joined by Dr. Dale Bredesen, a world-renowned neurologist and leading Alzheimer's researcher who has published over 240 peer-reviewed papers. Dr. Bredesen has spent decades proving that Alzheimer's is not a one-pathway disease but a network failure driven by inflammation, toxins, and mitochondrial dysfunction. His protocol has helped thousands of patients regain memory, extend healthspan, and reclaim brain performance. Together, they unpack how biohacking tools like fasting, ketosis, supplements, sleep optimization, cold therapy, and functional medicine can rewire neuroplasticity, protect mitochondria, and keep the brain in “connection mode” instead of decline. You'll hear why the pharmaceutical industry resists these solutions, how toxins like Paraquat and mold fuel cognitive decline, and what young people can do right now to bulletproof their brains for life. This episode is essential listening if you care about hacking human performance, upgrading metabolism, or extending longevity. You'll walk away with practical strategies you can use today—whether that means optimizing your mitochondria with nootropics, strengthening resilience with smarter not harder recovery, or fueling your brain with Danger Coffee. You'll Learn: • Why Alzheimer's can begin as early as your 20s and what biomarkers to track • The seven major drivers of Alzheimer's and how to reverse them with biohacking strategies • How APOE4 genetics, toxins, and inflammation accelerate brain aging—and what to do about it • The role of mitochondria, ketosis, and fasting in restoring brain optimization and neuroplasticity • Why prevention is exponentially easier than reversal and the top three actions you should start in your 20s • How to avoid “learned helplessness” in medicine and reclaim control over your brain span 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. Each episode features cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, hacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. Episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday (audio-only) where Dave asks the questions no one else dares, and brings you real tools to become more resilient, aware, and high performing.

This is a recording of a Live Q & A which has been edited for clarity, length, and helpfulness.Wonderful discussions on Awakening and various traditions as all describing the Infinite as expressing through us, how neurobiology is affected by the path of growth and awakening, neurons that fire together wire together and when they don't they don't. the brain can always heal and change. One was concerned with living in an unkind world controlled by separation, astrological cycles affecting culture, awakening, healing, and miracles, why do people of light suffer with disease, how the rational mind can dismiss intuition, reconciling with an estranged previously toxic parent, etc. These podcasts are here to support your personal path of awakening whatever that might be. I feel they are most powerful when listened to in sequence from podcast one forward because each is built on the last. Though they, also, all stand on their own.

Join my upcoming Positive Intelligence© Program: https://www.vickibaird.com/positive-intelligence-purchase-vicki-baird   In this special episode of Intuition: Your Success Compass, I'm sharing a recording from one of our live Wednesday night workshops, because the conversation was too good to keep to ourselves. We explored what it means to check in with your life before you feel like everything's on fire, how to work with (not against) that inner critic, and why even the most minor changes—what I call micromovements can shift everything. This isn't about overhauling your entire life overnight. It's about listening to your intuitive voice, slowing down enough to actually hear it, and taking one aligned step at a time. You'll hear honest reflections on transitions, mortality (yep, we went there), and the toll of tolerating what no longer fits. Grab a journal, breathe deeply, and join me for a powerful reflection on intentional living, celebrating your wins, and giving yourself permission to want more without shame, guilt, or apology.

In this episode, we're talking about more than just back-to-school shopping and fresh notebooks, we're talking about how to set our kids up for a successful school year and how to set ourselves up for one too. Because if you're a mom like me, you know the school year is as much about resetting our rhythms, protecting our mental health, and staying grounded as it is about helping our kids thrive.We'll explore: • Practical ways to set the emotional tone at home so our kids leave the house feeling calm, supported, and confident • Why rhythms matter more than rigid schedules (and how to create them for both kids and parents) • Managing the invisible mental load so a “successful school year” for them doesn't equal burnout for us • How modeling emotional regulation can help our kids develop lifelong coping skillsYou'll also learn how to use the science of neuroplasticity to rewire your brain in a realistic, sustainable way, no toxic positivity here or emotional bypassing and why this work is more like strength training than instant change.Finally, we'll flip the script and talk about what Gen Z and Gen Alpha can teach us about empathy, boundaries, and emotional intelligence, and why they may be modeling skills we all need to embrace.This episode blends practical tips, mindset science, and a little heart-to-heart to help you start the school year feeling calm, connected, and ready.Rewire Your Thoughts:: Using Affirmations to Build Confidence, Relieve Stress, and Manifest Abundance - https://www.amazon.com/Rewire-Your-Thoughts-Affirmations-Confidence/dp/B0DKCY4L24/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1JEQY2J1NNMKC&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.OkdSKNT19dbvy3qIlZ2tYhehaaVcMaYbmwNj5Ak6OOM.NfZW32BIbzTpST1GEFBx_yJomVtK4gSvbr69GUH9HKw&dib_tag=se&keywords=Nikki+Lanigan+Rewire+Your+Thoughts&qid=1755287581&sprefix=nikki+lanigan+rewire+your+thoughts%2Caps%2C231&sr=8-1Special Offers & Sponsors​Mantra Match – 10% off with code NIKKIWELLNESS: ⁠https://mantramatcha.com/⁠​Neeshi Protein Powder – 20% off your first order with code NIKKIYOGA20: ⁠www.neeshi.com⁠*** This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.Find Nikki online at:www.instagram.com/fitfunandfrazzledpodcastwww.instagram.com/elevate_and_align_

In this enlightening episode, we welcome Loretta Bruning, founder of the Intermammal Institute and author of 'Habits of a Happy Brain.' Loretta delves deep into the intricate relationship between brain impulses and soul growth. Learn about the role of happy chemicals like serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin, and endorphins in shaping our behaviors, and discover how experiences in childhood and adolescence wire our brains. This discussion also explores how we can consciously rewire our brains for better habits, the importance of balancing immediate and long-term gratification, and the profound journey of integrating the physical brain with spiritual growth. Tune in to understand how we can harness our mammalian brain and elevate our lives through intentional soul evolution.00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction01:05 Loretta's Background and Academic Psychology02:35 Animal Behavior and Brain Wiring03:23 Motivation and Soul's Role05:25 Neuroplasticity and Rewiring the Brain08:20 Managing Impulses and Threat Chemicals22:22 Childhood Wiring and Self-Compassion29:32 Social Comparison and Animal Training37:58 Oxytocin and Psychological Safety41:42 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsLoretta Graziano Breuning, PhD, is author of Habits of a Happy Brain: Retrain Your Brain to Boost Your Serotonin, Dopamine, Oxytocin and Endorphin Levels. She's Founder of the Inner Mammal Institute and Professor Emerita of Management at California State University, East Bay. Dr. Breuning's many books, videos and podcasts explain the brain chemistry we've inherited from earlier mammals. It shows that our "happy chemicals" evolved for specific jobs, not to flow all the time for no reason. Our brain is not designed to produce constant happiness, yet Dr. Breuning's work explains the natural way to enhance our power over these chemicals. Her ten books are translated into sixteen languages. Before teaching, Loretta worked for the United Nations in Africa. Today, she gives zoo tours on animals behavior, after serving as a Docent at the Oakland Zoo. The Inner Mammal Institute offers videos, podcasts, books, blogs, multimedia, a training program, and a free five-day happy-chemical jumpstart.

What if understanding how your brain actually works was the key to unlocking higher performance, better decisions, and more resilient leadership? Many leaders focus on strategies and skills without realizing that lasting change starts by rewiring how we think.Fortunately, this week's guest brings decades of experience helping leaders do just that. Larry Olsen is an expert in performance-driven neurology, a best-selling author, and the founder of Aperneo. He works with organizations to harness the power of neuroscience to shift mindsets, break through limiting beliefs, and create sustainable high performance.In this episode, Larry explains the crucial difference between the brain and the mind, why predictability can actually work against leadership growth, and how to identify and replace the beliefs that hold you back. You'll learn about neuroplasticity—your brain's ability to change—and how to apply practical “brain hacks” to transform your thinking and your results.In the extended episode, Larry dives deeper into applying these insights in everyday leadership, including how to coach teams through change and build a culture of mindset mastery.Podcast Plus members get access to the extended episode, guest bonuses, and more.

What if the real reason high-achieving leaders plateau has nothing to do with drive, strategy, or mindset—but something deeper, hardwired into the brain's survival instincts? In this episode, our host Denise Cagan is joined by a fascinating guest, and together they uncover the invisible ceiling that holds leaders back, even when they're doing everything right. Mitch Weisburgh, creator of the Mind Shifting Method, joins the show to discuss his innovative approach to revealing how unconscious survival patterns sabotage success. He explains how leaders can rewire their internal operating system to lead, decide, and scale without burning out.

Today, we are joined by Susan Winchester.Susan Schmitt Winchester is a former Chief Human Resources Officer of Applied Materials and co-author of Healing at Work, Susan brings more than 35 years of senior HR experience—and a deeply personal mission to help professionals transform workplace pain into personal growth. Drawing from her own experience as an Adult Survivor of a Damaged Past, she combines science, storytelling, and strategy to help us turn our triggers into triumphs.In this episode, we explore how our past experiences, particularly childhood wounds, show up in workplace behaviors and how leaders can transform these patterns into sources of strength and resilience. Susan introduces the concept of ASDP (Adult Survivors of a Damaged Past) and reveals how nearly 67% of adults have experienced significant adversity before age 18, yet many remain unaware of how these experiences drive their professional reactions. Through real-world examples and research-backed strategies, we discover how workplace conflicts—what Susan calls "bumper car moments"—can become powerful opportunities for healing and growth rather than sources of ongoing pain.Key topics include:Understanding ASDP (Adult Survivors of a Damaged Past) and how childhood experiences manifest in workplace behaviors like perfectionism, people-pleasing, and fear of criticismThe difference between the unconscious wounded career path and the conscious healing career path, and how to make the shiftHow "bumper car moments" - workplace conflicts and triggers - can become catalysts for transformation rather than sources of sufferingThe Rapid Power Reclaim method for pausing, creating choice, and responding from strength rather than reacting from old woundsPractical strategies for managers to support team members while maintaining appropriate boundaries and focusing on performanceLearn from Susan's insights how to recognize when past experiences are driving current workplace behaviors and gain practical tools for creating psychological safety in your organization. Discover why celebrating small wins is crucial for rewiring neural pathways, how to interrupt negative self-talk with simple questions like "Am I sure?", and why vulnerability in leadership creates stronger, more resilient teams that perform at higher levels.Susan Winchester's Website: https://susanwinchester.comSusan Winchester's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/susanschmittwinchester/Healing at Work Book: https://healingatwork.com/about-the-book/-Website and live online programs: http://ims-online.comBlog: https://blog.ims-online.com/Podcast: https://ims-online.com/podcasts/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlesagood/Twitter: https://twitter.com/charlesgood99Chapters:(00:00) Introduction(01:00) Susan's Journey and What Inspired the Book(03:45) Understanding ASDP - Adult Survivors of a Damaged Past(06:45) How Childhood Wounds Show Up in Workplace Behaviors(12:00) Moving from Unconscious to Conscious Career Paths(16:45) Bumper Car Moments as Catalysts for Growth(19:00) The Science of Neuroplasticity and Positive Change(22:00) Supporting Employees While Respecting Boundaries(27:00) The Power of Celebrating Small Wins(33:00) Interrupting Negative Self-Talk and Limiting Beliefs(39:00) Integrating Healing Principles into Organizational Culture(44:00) Handling Feedback When It Triggers Old Wounds(50:00) Red Flags of the Unconscious Wounded Career Path(55:00) Conclusion

Your brain is constantly scanning your body and environment, deciding in split seconds whether you're safe or unsafe, and those decisions shape everything from your emotions to your physical health. In this episode, we dive into Applied Neurology and Neuro Somatics, revealing how targeted sensory training can rewire your nervous system for greater safety, resilience, and growth. You'll discover the science of neuroplasticity, the impact of sensory deficits, and how trauma reshapes the brain's interpretations. We break down the Inputs–Interpretations–Outputs framework, the Stress Bucket model, and the concept of “neuro tags” that keep old patterns alive, plus practical, high-payoff tools to shift your state in real time. From understanding how systems like vision, balance, proprioception, and interoception influence your thoughts and emotions, to applying daily practices for regulation, this episode blends deep science with actionable strategies.   Whether you're a practitioner seeking to integrate nervous system work into your practice or someone ready to move from survival mode into growth and performance, you'll find a clear, practical guide to retraining your brain for safety, adaptability, and lasting change  Topics discussed in this episode: How to rewire the nervous system for resilience and growth The Inputs–Interpretations–Outputs framework for nervous system health How sensory deficits impact pain, anxiety, and emotional regulation Using neuroplasticity for trauma healing and behavioral change The Stress Bucket model for understanding overwhelm and shutdown Higg-payoff tools to shift nervous system states instantly How to train vision, balance, proprioception, and interoception Why clear sensory data creates emotional safety How neuro tags keep you stuck in survival mode Daily nervous system training for long-term regulation

Neurologist Michelle Monje studies the close relationship between cancer and the nervous system, particularly in an aggressive brain cancer that often strikes in childhood. Her research shows that the cancer cells are electrically integrated into the brain itself and these connections actually help the cancer to grow. Monje and collaborators have now developed an immunotherapy that has shown great promise in mice and early human trials. One patient had a “complete response” and is cancer-free four years after treatment, Monje tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

After being labeled “the boy with the broken brain” as a child, Jim transformed his life through functional medicine, nootropics, cold therapy, neurorehab, and smart supplementation. He's now the go-to expert on learning how to learn, with cutting-edge insights on memory, speed reading, focus, and cognitive recovery. Together, they reveal the most effective supplements for brain optimization, how to stack smart drugs with sleep optimization, the surprising downside of alpha GPC, and why things like ketosis, mitochondrial support, and even Danger Coffee are essential for modern cognition. You'll also hear why your brain speed depends on your metabolism, the forgotten science of post-traumatic growth, and how to combine breathing, fasting, and cold therapy for massive neuroplasticity gains. Jim also shares his Brain Animal system, a new way to personalize your learning, decision-making, and communication based on your unique cognitive style. From performance to parenting, he shows how your “brain type” influences every part of life and how to hack it for focus, clarity, and flow.

Dr. Caroline Leaf takes us on a journey through the science of the mind–brain connection. You'll learn powerful tools to manage moments of anxiety, overwhelm, and panic—based on neuroplasticity and her signature Neurocycle method. Highlights include: How to reframe your inner narrative with intentional breathing, validation, and cognitive shifts. The difference between mind vs. brain, and why your mind drives 99% of your experience. The importance of the five-step Neurocycle, practiced over 63 days, to rewire toxic thought patterns and build lasting resilience. Why “it's okay to not be okay,” and how healthy acknowledgment, not suppression, leads to transformation.

What is Herbal Ecstasy—and why does it matter? This might be one of the most insane episodes we've ever recorded, and we had to bring it back because the story is too wild, too relevant, and too packed with real lessons in biohacking, brain optimization, and supplement hacking to miss. Host Dave Asprey sits down with Shaahin Cheyene, the renegade teenage entrepreneur who built a billion-dollar supplement empire before he could legally drink. As the creator of Herbal Ecstasy, Shaahin hacked natural compounds into high-performance nootropics that boosted energy, neuroplasticity, and metabolism—long before biohacking was a movement. He faced seven federal investigations, never spent a day in jail, and went on to pioneer the vaporizer industry and dominate Amazon with advanced supplement marketing. This episode explores how Shaahin reverse-engineered functional medicine principles, used ancient plant medicine to upgrade human performance, and scaled a controversial brand using raw hustle and hacking tactics. You'll hear how Herbal Ecstasy worked, why it was banned, and what it teaches us about supplements, mitochondrial function, dopamine regulation, and the dark politics behind wellness innovation. You'll learn: • Why Herbal Ecstasy became a billion-dollar underground supplement • How Shaahin used nootropics and adaptogens to hack energy, focus, and neuroplasticity • What his clash with the FDA reveals about supplement regulation and functional medicine • How dopamine, mitochondria, and metabolism drive human performance • The difference between hacking systems vs conforming to broken ones • How storytelling, podcasting, and controversial supplements build legacy brands Whether you're optimizing your sleep, hacking your brain, experimenting with ketosis or fasting, or upgrading your stack with supplements that actually work—this channel delivers strategies, cautionary tales, and insight you won't find anywhere else. lt is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, brain optimization, supplements, mitochondria, metabolism, functional medicine, nootropics, longevity, dopamine, cold therapy, sleep optimization, emotional regulation, neuroplasticity, fasting, podcasting, RFK-era health freedom, ketosis, entrepreneurship, and building influence smarter not harder—with or without Danger Coffee.
