    A significant portion of the population lives with chronic pain, yet its origins and effective treatments remain some of the least understood aspects of healthcare. Pain is inherently subjective—unique to every individual—and rarely attributable to a single cause. It is a multifaceted experience shaped by a combination of physical, emotional, and neurological factors. When we peel back the layers of chronic pain, a compelling truth emerges: neuroscience plays a pivotal role. The deeper we explore its causes and remedies, the more evident the profound connection between the mind and body becomes. In today's episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer are joined by Matt Bush for a fascinating discussion on chronic pain and its intricate ties to nervous system health. Together, they explore how past experiences, unprocessed emotions, trauma, stress, and sensory input shape our perception of pain. They also examine pain as a protective mechanism and discuss how chronic pain impacts quality of life, often leading to avoidance behaviors and other challenges. While chronic pain is complex, this conversation highlights how tuning into our body's signals and understanding the mind-body connection can unlock transformative insights. Even if you've never experienced chronic pain, this episode offers valuable perspectives on the neuroscience behind this connection, providing tools to better understand your own well-being. Don't miss this episode—it's packed with thought-provoking insights and practical takeaways! Topics discussed in this episode: The distinction between pain and injury The "snake or stick" example: how the brain predicts pain The various types of information the brain uses to interpret pain Pain as a protective output of the nervous system Understanding neurotags and their connection to pain The link between complex trauma and chronic pain What is central sensitization (also known as "sprouting")? Protective outputs as distractions from unprocessed emotions How unprocessed emotions manifest as physical pain The deeply personal and unique nature of pain for each individual Exploring the connection between perfectionism and chronic pain How pain contributes to avoidance behaviors     Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the next cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com   Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/   Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com   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 my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired   This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast  is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

    In recent weeks, the United States has suffered several terrible tragedies. The Louisiana Bourbon Street massacre and the Los Angeles California fires. Watching these events, I wanted to share my thoughts on ways to deal with the crisis of life. In a world consumed by uncertainty, where wildfires blaze through cities and lives are uprooted instantly, a more profound truth emerges from the ashes. These moments strip life down to its core, reminding us of what truly matters. What drives us forward when all seems lost? What keeps us anchored amid chaos? In this episode, we explore the profound power of purpose—the guiding force that helps us endure and rise stronger. This podcast explores the essential question: What matters most to you? Through personal stories of resilience, such as rebuilding a life after losing a home to fire, and insights drawn from neuroscience, it explores how purpose can act as a stabilizing force, quieting the fear-driven amygdala and activating the reward systems in the brain that fuel motivation. Discover how, even in the darkest moments, purpose can transform pain into clarity and despair into determination.  But this episode isn't just for those in crisis. Purpose is a tool we can all use in our daily lives. Neuroscience shows that reflecting on what matters most activates self-awareness networks in the brain, helping us make decisions aligned with our values. From tackling life's daily challenges to navigating profound uncertainty, this podcast will challenge you to dig deep and reconnect with your own North Star. Whether you're searching for meaning in the face of adversity or seeking to lead a more intentional life, this episode offers a compelling blend of science, psychology, and personal narrative to inspire you. Don't just wonder about the power of purpose—experience it.  QUOTES BY DR. BRAY “Even in the darkest of times, there is always light.” “Crisis refines our purpose.”

    Join Andrea Samadi in Episode 353 of the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast as we explore the intricacies of empathy, guided by Grant Bosnick's tailored approaches to self-leadership. Delve into the foundation of empathy as a vital leadership tool, capable of strengthening relationships and achieving better outcomes. Learn about the neuroscience behind empathy, focusing on the role of mirror neurons and the three different types of empathy: cognitive, emotional, and empathetic concern. We also reflect on personal experiences where assumptions led to misunderstandings, highlighting the importance of seeing through another's eyes. Discover practical tips for deepening empathy, cultivating empathetic concern, and applying these insights both personally and professionally to make meaningful connections. This episode calls us to consciously choose empathy, fostering trust and compassion in our interactions. Prepare for our final chapter on the Neuroscience of Presence in the upcoming episodes as we continue to enhance our understanding and application of neuroscience in our daily lives. Welcome back to SEASON 13 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, an author, and an educator with a passion for learning and launched this podcast 6 years ago with the goal of bringing ALL the leading experts together (in one place) to help us to APPLY this research in our daily lives. On today's episode #353 we continue with the second last topic of our 18-Week Self-Leadership Series based on Grant Bosnick's “Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership: A Bite Size Approach Using Psychology and Neuroscience” that we first dove into with our interview on EP #321[i] the end of January 2024. The goal was that each week, we focused on learning something new, (from Grant's book) tied to the most current neuroscience research, that builds off the prior week, to help take us to greater heights this year. It honestly shocked me that this series took the entire year. Our final topic will be the neuroscience of presence, and then stay tuned for a review of the entire series to help us to move forward in 2025 with a new lens.   Now we have not yet covered empathy as an entire topic on this podcast, (yet) but we did mention it on EP 340[ii] with mediation expert John Ford on “Navigating Workplace Conflicts” with his “The Empathy Set”[iii] Card Program. I also included the topic of Empathy within the Character Education program I created for schools, so I know why Grant would think this topic to be important enough to include on his “roadmap” for success. When I looked back to what I had written over 15 years ago on empathy, I found an image that said “empathy is seeing with the eyes of another, listening with the ears of another, and feeling with the heart of another” which is right in line with how Grant Bosnick opens up Chapter 18 of his book. Grant reminds us that “empathy is the capacity to understand or feel what another person is experiencing from their frame of reference, the capacity to place ourselves in another person's position, to put ourselves in their shoes, see it from their eyes, their perspective, their way of thinking and feeling.”. ((On today's EPISODE #353 “The Neuroscience of Empathy” we will cover)): ✔ A review of previous episodes where we covered empathy. ✔ The Neuroscience of Empathy ✔ Three Kinds of Empathy (Cognitive, Emotional and Empathetic Concern). ✔ Tips for becoming more empathetic in our daily life to deepen our relationships and improve our outcomes personally and professionally. If you've taken the leadership self-assessment[iv], look to see if Empathy (in Pathway 6, our final pathway in this book study) along with biases, relationships/authenticity and trust is of a low, medium or high priority for you to focus on this year. I was not surprised to see this pathway is a high area of focus for me. I often think “I wonder what this person is thinking and feeling” and try to see a situation from their viewpoint. Do you do this? Think and feel from another person's point of view? That's the first step at putting empathy into action in our daily life. Now let's take this deeper with Grant's book. In Chapter 18 of Bosnick's Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, he asks us to remember a time we felt conflict or tension with another person, and asks us to look at the problem from the other person's perspective. I remember Dr. Maiysha Clairborne from EP 289[v] talking about the “3 Positions of Listening” where she informs us we can look at the conflict through our own eyes first, and then step out of our shoes, and into someone else's (she calls this position 2 to see what they see, hear what they hear, and feel the feelings they might be feeling. And finally, the third position, which she says is the most valuable, is the observer position where you can go above and look down at the conflict, outside of each person involved, to see the entire dynamic, or bigger picture. Grant talks about the importance of stepping into another person's shoes, the minute we sense tension or frustration coming up with another person. Feeling empathy for others is an important leadership tool Grant reminds us, as it will help us to “build trust, develop relationship(s) and achieve better outcomes” but he cautions us against making assumptions that can influence our decisions and actions. (Chapter 18, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 235) REFLECTION QUESTION: Grant asks us to reflect on when we might have been wrong about the thoughts or motivations of another person, and what behavior did you take, intentionally, or unintentionally?  I always go back to an example that I would share in the classrooms, working with teens on this topic, as this has happened to all of us in some capacity. I'm going back now to when I was in high school, (Don Mills Collegiate in Toronto, Canada) and I was walking along a pathway, outside of my school, and saw my good friend Yolanda (real name). I waved at Yolanda, and looked forward to catching up with her on our way to our classes, but Yolanda didn't wave back to me. I went straight in my head to “hmmm…I wonder why Yolanda is angry with me” and I went another route, so we would miss each other and didn't end up walking together. I had made the assumption that Yolanda was angry with me, and the action I took, was that I avoided her. I can think of countless other times in my life where I've made assumptions like this, and missed opportunities with friends. At a later date, Yolanda asked me why I was avoiding her, ( I was surprised she noticed) and I told her about how I had waved and that she hadn't waved back, and it was then that she told me she wasn't wearing her glasses that day, and never saw me. In fact, she didn't see anything at all that day (the chalkboards included)! I was disappointed that I had made this assumption, and it was a valuable lesson to see through Yolanda's eyes, with how incorrect I was when I made this assumption. The Neuroscience of Empathy So how does empathy work in our brain? Grant reminds us of “the activation of mirror neurons in our brain which help to explain the process of empathy.” In our brain, “empathy is a spontaneous sharing of a person's feelings or thoughts by witnessing and being affected by their emotional state” (Chapter 18, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 236) and that “we mirror or mimic the emotional response that we would expect to feel ourselves if we were in that same context.” I always think of those emotional Hallmark Card commercials that get me every time, or movies where I relate to the character, and wipe away tears, reminding myself “it's just a movie.” The movie Ghost with Whoopi Goldberg, comes to mind, with a memory I'll never forget, from many years ago. As the movie ended, one of my friends wasn't ready to leave the theater, and I remember him not wanting to talk about it, as he wiped tear away from his eyes, hoping none of us would notice. The movie had triggered his mirror neurons and like Grant Bosnick mentioned in his book, movies can do this to us! Grant gives us the origin of these mirror neurons by sharing that “they evolved in the human brain to facilitate and understand the actions we need to take in response to others as, at least in human history (he says) our survival would depend on it.” (Chapter 18, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 237). My friend didn't want to “feel” what Patrick Swayze was feeling in the movie, Ghost, but his mirror neurons wouldn't give him much choice. I remember reading in National Geographic, about the origin of our “mirror neurons” and learned that “humans communicate through facial gestures. Control of these expressions lies in the brain stem and amygdala, beyond consciousness.”[vi] This makes sense to me, since when you try to control it, or not feel these emotions, (like my friend in the movie theater) it's very difficult, and almost impossible. Do you relate to mirror neurons, and feeling empathy for others in this way? Three Kinds of Empathy Bosnick goes on to share that there are three kinds of empathy: cognitive empathy, emotional empathy and empathetic concern. Cognitive Empathy is “taking another person's perspective and understanding the situation as they see it” (Chapter 18, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 237) like we learned from Maiysha Clairborne with the three positions of listening. “Through their words and body language, we process it logically, taking their perspective, without experiencing it.” The mirror neurons do not fire here. Emotional Empathy is “feeling someone's pain or emotion by seeing it in them and simulating/sensing it in ourselves.” (Chapter 18, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 237). In this case, mirror neurons fire as we experience the situation like it were our own, like my friend in the movie theater. Grant points out that “different parts of the brain are activated during emotional empathy and cognitive empathy. As a result, we process it differently within our brain. It has also shown (that we just mentioned from the quote from National Geographic) that we can control cognitive empathy much more than emotional empathy because it uses a logical part of our brain rather than an emotional center.” (Chapter 18, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 238). He does urge us to work on using both at the same time “to understand the other person's perspective AND experience their emotions” to come at the most accurate conclusion to how they are thinking and feeling. Grant pointed out that in the workplace, he usually defaults to using more cognitive empathy, and just by adding more emotional empathy, he is able to truly understand those he works with, and empathize with them on a deeper level. Empathetic Concern is “the feeling that if I can do something that can help you, I will…when I see you are in trouble, I want to help you out…It is being genuinely concerned with others and experiencing other-oriented emotions to help them.” (Chapter 18, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 240). This is “when we express care, tenderness, compassion…about another person, supporting them, showing trust, allowing them space.” Bosnick says empathetic concern takes “emotional empathy” to a deeper level. REFLECTION QUESTION: When have you experienced empathetic concern? Think of one personal and one business example where you have genuinely felt concern for another person and wanted to help them. Reflect on what how empathetic concern deepened the levels of trust, helped to develop a better relationship, with improved outcomes. Bosnick warns us that “although empathy is a natural biological process within our brains, it is not automatic” and shares that “feeling empathy is a choice we make.” (Chapter 18, Bosnick, Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, Page 241). His book does dive deeper into situations where people may consciously, or unconsciously choose not to be empathetic with tips on how to develop habits for effective empathy that include listening to others, standing up for others, reading more books, and even how to raise empathetic children. You can dive deeper into the topic of empathy in chapter 18 of Grant's book. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION To review and conclude this week's episode #353 on “The Neuroscience of Empathy” we covered: ✔ A review of previous episodes where we covered empathy (John Ford's episode and also with Dr. Maiysha Clairborne) that are excellent to review. ✔ The Neuroscience of Empathy, our mirror neurons, and a warning to watch making assumptions in this process. ✔ Three Kinds of Empathy (Cognitive, Emotional and Empathetic Concern). ✔ Tips for becoming more empathetic in our daily life, and practice Empathetic Concern where we can, to deepen our relationships and improve our outcomes personally and professionally.  I hope this episode has provided you with a deeper understanding of ways to practice being more empathetic in your personal and work life. I know that the world can be a better place if we all can learn to think and feel from another person's point of view, and finally, if we have solutions that can genuinely help others, to lean in and offer some ideas to support those that are close to you. It can only work to bring you closer. With that thought, we will close out this episode, and we will see you next time with our final chapter, The Neuroscience of Presence, before reviewing the entire book. Have a great week.

    Chapter 1 What's In The Realm Of Hungry Ghosts by M.D. Mate, Gabor"In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction" by Dr. Gabor Maté is a profound exploration of addiction, examining the complex interplay between psychological, social, and biological factors that contribute to this condition. Dr. Maté draws from his experiences working with drug addicts in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside, as well as his background in psychology and neuroscience. The book introduces the concept of 'hungry ghosts' as a metaphor for individuals struggling with addiction—living in a state of craving for something they can never satisfy. Dr. Maté emphasizes that addiction is not just a personal failing but a response to trauma, environmental influences, and an unmet desire for connection. Through personal stories and scientific insights, he advocates for a compassionate, understanding approach to treatment that addresses the root causes of addiction rather than merely focusing on abstinence. The book serves as both a poignant commentary on the failures of traditional treatment methods and a call to adopt more humane, integrative strategies in addressing addiction.Chapter 2 In The Realm Of Hungry Ghosts by M.D. Mate, Gabor SummarySummary of "In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts" by Dr. Gabor MatéIn "In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction," Dr. Gabor Maté, a physician specializing in addiction, mental health, and trauma, explores the complex realities of addiction through a compassionate lens. Drawing from both his clinical experience in treating drug addicts in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside and personal anecdotes, Maté delves into the psychological, social, and neurological underpinnings of addiction. Key Themes:Addiction as a Response to Pain: Maté argues that addiction is not merely a biological or moral failing but a response to deep emotional pain and trauma. He emphasizes that understanding the context of an individual's life is essential to comprehend their addiction.The Role of Childhood Trauma: The author highlights how early life experiences, particularly adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), significantly shape an individual's susceptibility to addiction. He illustrates how trauma can lead to patterns of behavior aimed at self-soothing or escape.The Neuroscience of Addiction: Maté explains the brain's role in addiction, discussing how substances modify brain functioning and the reward system. He stresses that addiction is a disease of the brain that can also be understood through a biopsychosocial perspective.Compassionate Approach: The book advocates for a compassionate approach to treatment, emphasizing empathy and understanding over criminalization and stigma. Maté calls for a shift in public policy regarding addiction, favoring treatment and social support over punishment.Connection and Belonging: Central to recovery from addiction, according to Maté, is the need for authentic connection and a sense of belonging. He argues that supportive relationships can be crucial for healing from trauma and addiction. Conclusion:Dr. Gabor Maté's "In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts" is not only a profound exploration of addiction but also a call for empathy and understanding towards those who suffer from it. By sharing stories of individuals entrenched in addiction, the book humanizes these experiences and urges readers to reconsider societal views on addiction, focusing on the underlying causes rather than the symptoms alone.Chapter 3 In The Realm Of Hungry Ghosts AuthorGabor Maté is a Canadian physician, author, and speaker known for his work on addiction, stress, and child development. He was born on March 6, 1944, in Budapest, Hungary, and is widely recognized for his compassionate approach to understanding mental health and addiction.

    One of our most profound capacities as humans is the ability to re-story our lives. In this final episode of the storytelling series, we explore the movement from shame to compassion/self-compassion. This is primarily a somatic or embodied process, allowing our bodies to release the stored vital energy that may have become stuck in our system, with groaning, yelling, and whatever else creates emotional flow. With practice, we can release our bodies into new stories, for our sake and for the sake of the world around us.

    On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I discuss the importance of "slow learning" - especially in a culture that's become so focused on “fast outcomes” and “quick results”. I share about my own experiences of needing enough time to truly understand and integrate new information, rather than just quickly consuming it. I make the case that true learning, comes from first-hand experience and the process of acquiring knowledge through implementation and not just passively ingesting other people's content. I also reflect on how some learning methods have changed over time - and I contrast this modern approach with traditional apprenticeship models. I believe that true knowledge requires effort and patience - the willingness to spend time with material, think deeply about it, and allow it to percolate. Which is one of the reasons why I'm not a fan of the “TLDR” culture that we seem to find ourselves in.This is an invitation to forgo the instant gratification and superficial understanding that so often dominates today. Ultimately, I encourage people to adopt a more "vertical" approach to learning and personal growth - going deeper rather than wider, and being willing to invest the time and attention required for true learning and understanding.KEY POINTS:•​ Embracing slow, deep learning•​ Resisting cultural obsession with speed•​ True knowledge requires patience + effort•​ Regurgitation does not equal understanding•​ Cultivating long-term learning relationships•​ Prioritizing Depth over Breadth• The Nest - Group Mentoring Program BIO:Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Writer, Integrative Change Worker, Coach and Hypnotist.

    The American healthcare system is dealing with more mental health issues than ever before. What is the root of the uprising in anxiety and mood disorders? Why are more young people, children and teenagers, receiving this diagnosis and what can we do as a society to help understand? Today's guest, Susan Swick, MD, MPH is the Executive Director of Ohana, the integrated program for child and adolescent mental and behavioral health and healing at Montage Health, and the Vice President and Chief Mental Health Officer at Montage Health. She began her career at Rikers Island, studying the mental health needs of the incarcerated, which led her to studying younger patients, specifically the field of child psychiatry and how these children can be helped at an earlier age. How much is environmental and how much is the neurology of the brain? There is a rise in mental health issues in children. Childhood, from a brain perspective, ends closer to age 25. Skills like socialization, communication, and bonding are still forming until approximately this age. We develop skills prior to this age which can affect our mental health for the rest of our lives. But, there's good news and treatment is available! It can be corrected using a type of supportive mental health technique using skill-building so children learn to manage anxiety – it's like a type of mental health “tutoring” so they can manage something new and challenging, even if frightening. It is possible to build skills toward stronger health and mental fitness.  Dr. Swick also talks about social media and how children become addicted to being online with a dopamine hit, especially in teenagers. Many compare themselves to others and eating disorders may start here. The reward part of the brain also does not mature until approximately age 26.   Over a distinguished 20-year career as a clinical psychiatrist and educator, Dr. Swick has helped transform how American healthcare systems meet the escalating demand for pediatric and adolescent mental and behavioral healthcare treatment and services. A graduate of Columbia University Medical School, she previously served as Chief of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at Newton Wellesley Hospital and as an instructor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital.    In addition to her clinical expertise, Dr. Swick is an advocate for the importance of mental fitness and has developed nationally recognized neuroscience strategies to help young people build and maintain a state of emotional health and positive self-awareness throughout their lives.

    Setting big goals can be overwhelming, which is why many people fall short and eventually give up on them. But by breaking your bigger goals into smaller goals, you create momentum, which leads to daily dopamine releases (the “feel good” chemical) that generate perpetual feelings of motivation.  In today's episode, I'm sharing four (4) proven strategies that will help you rewire your brain and stay on track to make it easier to achieve whatever goals you've set for yourself. You'll learn how being aware of your brain's neuroplasticity can help you close the gap between your desires and reality. So whether your biggest goals are to earn more money, get healthier, or level up your relationships with friends and family, putting these steps into action will help keep you motivated, overcome mental blocks that get in your way, and visualize what it will feel like to accomplish your goals by creating daily habits that create small wins to keep you motivated. KEY TAKEAWAYS The psychology of setting goals and triggering dopamine releases by achieving them Setting and visualizing specific goals helps rewire your brain with neuroplasticity How visualization helps close the gap between a vision and reality The power of focusing on tiny wins to create momentum Overcome mental blocks like procrastination or fear of failure with implementation intentions Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/568 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

With a focus on bridging the gap between the world within us and the rapidly evolving modern world around us, I break down the fundamental principles of how our bodies and brains are designed to function under "normal conditions"—a concept that feels increasingly distant in today's fast-paced, convenience-driven lifestyle.From the role of intermittent fasting in tapping into evolutionarily conserved mechanisms to the power of hormetic stressors like exercise, cold exposure, and mindful breathing, this episode unpacks how intentional, evidence-based lifestyle choices can support neuroplasticity, resilience, and overall well-being. I emphasize the importance of understanding key biomarkers like heart rate variability (HRV) to track and optimize our nervous system's adaptability and share actionable insights to help you integrate progressive, sustainable practices that elevate both mental clarity and physical performance.Whether you're navigating a health plateau, looking to build healthier habits, or simply aiming to deepen your connection with your body and mind, this episode offers a practical roadmap to reclaiming control over your physiology and psychology.

    Scientist Gregg Braden is back on Know Thyself today for a deeper dive into the inherent beauty of humanity and the technology that threatens it. Pulling on the threads of our last conversations, Gregg opens up about the current state of the world: from transhumanism to artificial intelligence, giving a warning message about these innovations. He provides a reframe on what we've been told about human potential: revealing that we are far greater than we know and these technologies threaten that very greatness.   Our discussion encompasses a range of critical topics, including the ongoing struggle between good and evil on Earth, the pivotal Year 2030, and the Future of Humanity. Furthermore, Gregg draws intriguing parallels to popular culture, exploring how films like "The Matrix" serve as allegories for deeper truths about our reality, prompting us to question the nature of existence itself.  Sleep Better with the Birch Mattress -  Save 25% Off Sitewide + 2 Free Eco-Rest Pillows with Mattress Purchase: http://birchliving.com/knowthyself André's Book Recommendations: https://www.knowthyself.one/books ___________ 0:00 Intro  1:59 Technology is Evolving Faster than Our Morality 11:41 Is Transhumanism an Inevitable Phase of Evolution? 19:30 Who's Really Controlling the Show? 26:13 Why We Can't Manufacture Consciousness 31:00 The Neuroscience of Our Divinity  36:50 How Our Neurons Atrophy from Technology  44:13 Science's Attempt at Cloning (and why it won't work) 50:25 Ad: Sleep Better with the Birch Mattress & Save 25% 53:32 Earth's Battle Between Good & Evil 1:09:24 How Love vs Fear Creates our Reality  1:13:11 Year 2030 & The Future of Humanity  1:26:04 Why We're Drawn to Wholeness  1:33:44 Embracing the Truth of Who You Are 1:40:55 Conclusion  ___________ New York Times best-selling author and scientist Gregg Braden is internationally renowned as a pioneer in bridging science, spirituality and the real world.

To find out more, Ian Sample hears from Guy Leschziner, a consultant neurologist and sleep physician at Guy's and St Thomas' hospital in London. His new book, Seven Deadly Sins: The Biology of Being Human, looks at the neurological basis of behaviours often dismissed as evidence of bad character or lack of willpower.

Contact Bryan Barley for coaching at bryan@vothcenter.com.    This new podcast series, “Twelve Movements of a Man's Life,” is not going to be exclusively for men. We want women to learn and have confidence in seeing and expecting men to be who they are created to be.    I created these twelve movements over 15 years ago when I was in my early 50s. I knew that I was not old enough to present them with assurance, because I had not witnessed them as a “lived experience” yet—even though I knew they were true.    I am now more of a witness to how extraordinarily true and vital they are for our society, for families, for marriages, for mission, for men in community with other men, and for a man with God.    I learned these truths and concepts from the thousands of men, couples, and families that I have worked with while running my treatment center and in my own  consulting/mentoring practice that I started in 2019. This material is the culmination of work that began in 1988, if not before!   These twelve movements are not a list that a person checks off, completes the next step, and then gets his diploma. These movements are actually real processes, or interlocking circles that expand over a lifetime. They are never completed. They only end when the man's life ends.   This episode lays the foundation for the twelve movements to follow:   We are all feeling creatures. We feel, need, desire, long and hope; and we imagine our lives being fully lived related to our feelings. We are all emotionally and spiritually created to do one thing in this life, to live fully (all purpose in life begins from the desire to live fully). We are literally born to find full life in relationship with ourselves (our own hearts and heads connected), with others, and with God. We are not created to “do” life alone. Neuroscience has “caught up” enough to verify and validate what has always been true. We are connection seeking creatures. We come out of the womb looking for who is looking for us. We find fulfillment through connection. Unlike all other mammals, we as human beings can attempt to run from or deny how we are created. We can attempt to use our “heads” to deny our heart's makeup—to avoid vulnerability. We can use our minds to avoid engagement with the feelings, needs, desire, longings, and hopes of the heart. When we do so, we isolate ourselves from each other, our own makeup, and God. We all look to connect in three ways: (a) we all need to belong and matter; (b) we all seek safety and care; (c) we all crave the experience of being fully alive.   Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.

    What do kink, dopamine and addiction reveal about the human experience? In this fascinating conversation, Dr. Anna Lembke, Stanford Psychiatry Professor and author of Dopamine Nation, unravels the secrets of addiction and the delicate balance between pleasure and pain. We explore topics such as the neuroscience of kink, the psychology of addictive personalities, and how contemporary issues have reshaped our culture. With thought-provoking insights, Dr. Lembke examines the hidden forces driving our behaviours - from the "drugification" of modern life to the surprising connections between shame, spirituality, and recovery. We delve into the psychology of craving, the lessons addicts can teach us about resilience, and practical steps anyone can take to avoid falling into dopamine traps. This episode might challenge some of your conventional thinking (hello pain) while offering grounded, science-based advice for living a more balanced and intentional life - to make sure you get a bit of aftercare to ease the journey.
