A concussion isn't just a bump on the head; it disrupts entire networks and can have long term implications when ignored. Unfortunately, even with advances in modern neuroscience, recovery is difficult and sometimes ineffective. In this episode, we discuss how psychedelics may enhance neuroplasticity and what that could mean for concussion recovery with Dylan, a graduate student studying the intersection of psychedelics and traumatic brain injuries. We dive into the biological mechanisms behind neuroplasticity, why concussions disrupt it, and how psychedelic compounds are being investigated as potential tools to support the brain's adaptive processes. We also discuss personal experiences with concussions, current research limitations, and what the next generation of studies aims to uncover. Dylan Graff is a second-year master's student at Queen's University Centre for Neuroscience Studies, where he works under the supervision of Dr. Douglas James Cook. His research focuses on using advanced neuroimaging methods, particularly resting-state fMRI, to understand how mild traumatic brain injuries affect brain connectivity and network function. Driven by a strong interest in both brain injury and mental health, Dylan's work also examines the therapeutic potential of psychedelic-assisted therapies. He aims to bridge findings from psychedelic research in mood disorders with neuroimaging studies in brain injury, exploring whether these emerging treatments may help address persisting symptoms after concussion.

Drawing on her experiences with clients in recovery, Brianne highlights the struggle many face when it comes to sitting in discomfort and resisting the urge for immediate pleasure. She candidly shares her own journey with instant gratification, likening it to a toddler's relentless desire for instant rewards.Throughout the episode, Brianne delves into the neuroscience behind instant gratification, explaining how it drives impulsive behaviors and hinders long-term goals. She contrasts this with the concept of delayed gratification, emphasizing its importance in achieving greater self-control, improved decision-making, and ultimately, a more satisfying life. Listeners will learn practical strategies to combat impulsive tendencies, such as identifying triggers, setting clear goals, and creating personal reward systems.This episode serves as a powerful reminder that true growth often requires patience and the ability to endure discomfort. Join Brianne as she encourages you to lean into the uncomfortability and embrace the journey towards meaningful change, rather than succumbing to the allure of instant satisfaction.

Dr. Amy explains why your brain and body function like a divine antenna that requires high-quality "fuel" to operate at peak performance. We dive into the structural differences between male and female brains, the science behind neuro-feedback training, and how you can reclaim your evolutionary birthright: intuitive intelligence. Whether you are a business leader looking for a strategic edge or a man seeking a deeper connection to his "gut feeling," this episode provides the blueprint for re-wiring your neurology for clarity and alignment.

Deep Dive into the Neurology of Performance 1. Upgrading Your "Wattage" Dr. Amy likens the human body to a high-performance sports car. Many people experience brain fog because they consume a "standard processed food diet," which is the equivalent of putting cheap gasoline in a racing engine. Neurologically, if your brain requires 15 watts of power but only has 13, it will shut down higher functions like empathy, strategic thinking, and connection to default into "survival strategies". By reducing toxic burdens and improving mitochondrial function, you provide the "power" necessary for the brain to function as a whole unit. 2. Male vs. Female Brain Architecture A key difference in neurology is the corpus callosum, the architecture connecting the two brain hemispheres. Women generally have a more robust corpus callosum, allowing them to see multiple points of view and multitask. In contrast, the male brain is often wired for a singular focus (the "hunt the deer" mentality), which is a strength unless it leads to a "bubble" that excludes broader intuitive inputs. 3. Neuro-Feedback: Rewiring the Default Mode Through advanced neuro-feedback, Dr. Amy and her team use EEG mapping to look "under the hood". They can identify hot spots of anxiety or underperforming "dead zones". By playing a "video game" with the brain—where the computer rewards the brain for reaching desired states—clients can physically grow new neurons and connections at a rate of about a millimeter a month. This process can help addictions fall away by fixing alpha wave timing, removing the "need" for substances like alcohol to reach a relaxed state.

Amber Abila helps women stop binge eating and overeating by rewiring their brains so they can finally feel normal and in control around any food. Over 3% of the US population struggles with binge eating and so many more do so in silence.For years, Amber struggled with her own relationship with food, trying everything from therapy and calorie counting to weight loss coaching. Nothing seemed to work until she discovered, through coaching and psychology, that there was nothing “wrong” with her at all — she simply needed practical brain tools to break free from the cycle.By learning how her unconscious brain was driving habitual eating patterns, Amber began making dramatic shifts in her habits and her life. Now she shares those same evidence‑based tools with others, showing women that freedom from food obsession is possible and that lasting change doesn't come from more discipline or stricter diets, but from understanding and retraining the brain.In this episode, Amber opens up about her journey, the science behind binge eating, and the strategies that helped her reclaim peace with food. Her mission is clear: to ensure no one feels as alone or broken as she once did, and to empower women everywhere to step into confidence, resilience, and joy in their everyday lives.Amber's Sites:Website: https://theconfidenteater.org/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/amber.abila.77Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theconfidenteater_ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@amberabilaPodcast: Become a Confident Eater: Overcome Overeating, Establish Healthy Eating Habits https://theconfidenteater.org/podcastOTR Sites:Podcast Website: https://bobadleman.wixsite.com/otrmentalhealthReal Plus Community Ko-Fi.com/otrachieving Mail: OvertheRainbowbob@gmail.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/otrachievingmentalhealhfrInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/over_the_rainbow_achieving X: https://twitter.com/overtherain1bowYouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChEYTddPDUaiZbFliit1r5QLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-adleman/This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podder - https://www.podderapp.com/privacy-policyPodtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp

Watch the FULL podcast here: https://youtu.be/ZoyEJ0WD99gDo you feel less connected after time on your phone? I'm exploring why chasing dopamine from short-form content can crowd out the oxytocin we get from face-to-face moments. This clip explores a real-life dinner table moment where parents scroll while a teenager and grandmother wait for conversation, and how that habit can erode connection and leave us feeling flat later. I'm exploring with my guest how oxytocin brings deep fulfillment from human contact, while dopamine drives the urge for “more” with quick hits from feeds and alcohol. We map the brain's dopamine pathway, highlighting the ventral tegmental area as the dopamine factory and the nucleus accumbens as the reward center, then contrast effort-based rewards like cleaning the house with effortless scrolling. You'll hear why effort allows the dopamine system to replenish, while passive hits flood the reward center without refilling the system, which can contribute to irritability, procrastination, and low motivation. As a nutritionist and health communicator, I connect these neuroscience basics with practical choices, like keeping phones out of reach during meals to support oxytocin-rich connection.***This episode is sponsored by: NOWATCH: Health tracking reimaginedKnow your body, trust yourself.15% off with code LWBW15 at nowatch.com***Sign up to Sarah's Compassionate Cure newsletter: Science Simplified, Health Humanised.

In this enlightening episode of the We Are Women Podcast, I speak with Adele Spraggon — an award-winning author, thought leader, and internationally recognized behavioral change expert who is transforming the way we think about the brain and personal empowerment. Adele knows firsthand what it feels like to be stuck in patterns that don't serve us. After experiencing panic attacks and realizing she was running on autopilot, she began a journey to understand how the brain creates, repeats, and holds us in patterns of behavior. What she discovered changed her life — and has since changed the lives of thousands of people around the world. Through her bestselling book, Shift: 4 Steps to Personal Empowerment, and her unique four-step method rooted in neuroplasticity, Adele helps individuals deconstruct old patterns, rewire their brains, and create new, empowering ways of thinking and acting. Her framework — Action, Behaviour, Belief — guides people to: Identify their patterns Own them Deconstruct them Create new ones that support growth and success Our conversation dives into why willpower alone doesn't work, the importance of subtracting rather than adding to overcome challenges, and how we can learn to embrace uncertainty without fear. Adele also unpacks some of the most common behavioral patterns she sees in women — including people pleasing, conflict avoidance, and rescuing — and how to break free from them. Listeners will take away powerful insights, including: why addressing brain patterns is the key to solving life's toughest problems, how to build emotional strength in an uncertain world, and the science behind increasing your confidence levels. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who has ever felt stuck in self-sabotage, frustrated by repeating old habits, or ready to unlock their fullest potential. Adele's blend of neuroscience, compassion, and practical tools will leave you feeling empowered to shift your patterns and step into lasting transformation.

8 Tips & Tricks for Brain Retraining — Rewiring the Brain Out of Chronic Pain & Illness

Your brain can learn safety, and that changes everything about chronic pain and illness. We're pulling back the curtain on brain retraining—what it is, what it isn't, and how to use it day to day without turning healing into a pressure-filled project. If you've ever tried a practice, felt your pain/symptom drop once, and then chased that result like a pain pill, this conversation will reset your approach in the most helpful way.We start by defining brain retraining in clear terms and grounding it in two pillars: safe self-talk and embodiment. You'll hear how confident, kind language reduces threat while curious attention to sensation teaches your nervous system that your body is safe. From there, we unpack eight practical principles: show and tell (reassure, then gently expose), set a short-term goal of safety and a long-term goal of desensitization, spot dysregulation early, reframe control toward your response, practice curiosity on purpose, start with safety signals, take embodiment into daily life, and stay playful so threat stays low. We also add a bonus: be consistent without turning intensity into a new problem.Expect down-to-earth examples you can try today, like tension-and-release breathing, quick drop-ins during daily activities, and using a light touch of humor to soften vigilance. You'll learn why chasing instant relief backfires, how “healing wins” compound, and what it looks like to build resilience with small, repeated reps instead of white-knuckling your way through symptoms. Whether you're new to mind-body work or refining your practice, these tools will help you feel safer, calmer, and more connected as your brain unlearns pain and illness.If this resonates, subscribe, share with someone who needs hope, and leave a quick review to help others find the show.

Before we jump in, I do want to mention that I have a lot of free recovery resources on my website at soberlifeschool.com. There's a guide called “How to quit drinking: 30 tips for your first 30 days” with tips on how to beat cravings, how to answer the inevitable questions about why you're not drinking, how to manage stress, and still have fun! Cuz we are all about having fun, just without the hangover. And one request: If you enjoy this episode, please rate and review on Apple podcasts and share it with a friend. It helps to get the message of hope to those who need it most. Since I started the podcast over 9 years ago, I have talked with hundreds of people, many of them medical experts in a variety of disciplines, about how to heal the underlying issues that cause addiction.  The overwhelming data suggests that psychedelic assisted therapy, done in the right setting with professionals can lead to profound healing. However it is not for everyone and for certain people it's actually contraindicated. These are powerful compounds and the use of them should not be taken lightly.  By way of a disclaimer, I'm obviously not a doctor and I don't play one on the internet, which is why today I am speaking with an actual doctor. This conversation is not to be taken as medical advice. It is for educational purposes only.  The reason I decided to interview Dr Jeff McNairy is because I know compounds like Ayahuasca are being discussed among people in the sober community and I wanted to present information to those considering it, both risks and potential benefits.  In this episode, Dr. Jeff shares his remarkable journey from studying medical anthropology to becoming a licensed psychologist working at the intersection of trauma, neuroscience, and ancient healing practices. We also discuss who should not participate in ayahuasca, what safe preparation and integration really look like, and why this plant medicine is being called “10 years of therapy in one night.”

What happens in your brain after a workplace injury? When physical pain meets anxiety, sleep disruption, and the stress of uncertain recovery, it can trigger a neurological downward spiral that feels impossible to escape. But neuroscience offers powerful insights into breaking this cycle.In this fascinating conversation with Dr. Alex Korb, neuroscientist, anxiety coach at UCLA, and author of "The Upward Spiral," we explore the brain circuits that drive our emotional responses to injury and the science-backed strategies that can reverse negative patterns. Dr. Korb explains how our brains create habitual responses to stress and why self-criticism—a strategy that may have served us well throughout our careers—often becomes our biggest obstacle during recovery.You'll discover why acknowledging emotions is crucial (hint: ignored feelings don't disappear, they manifest physically), how setting tiny goals creates dramatic chemical changes in the brain, and why your emotional sensitivity might actually be your greatest strength. Dr. Korb uses the brilliant analogy of a Ferrari versus a Camry to illustrate why your emotionally responsive brain isn't broken—it just needs different handling techniques.For workers' compensation professionals, this episode offers invaluable insights into supporting injured workers through both physical and emotional recovery. For anyone struggling with anxiety, pain, or setbacks, Dr. Korb provides practical, accessible strategies drawn from cutting-edge neuroscience that can help transform recovery from a downward spiral into an upward one. The journey begins with understanding that your brain's response makes perfect sense—and small changes can create remarkable results.Season 9 is brought to you by Berkley Industrial Comp.

Could the brain rewire itself for lasting transformation? Are we missing the root cause of attention, anxiety, and learning challenges?   In this episode of Kaleidoscope of Possibilities – Alternative Perspectives on Mental Health, Dr. Adriana Popescu sits down with Dr. Connie McReynolds, licensed psychologist, certified rehabilitation counselor, and expert in neurofeedback. With decades of experience in helping clients address ADHD, trauma, learning challenges, and more, Dr. Connie introduces a radically different way to look at these issues—not as permanent disorders, but as patterns that can be changed. Together, they explore how understanding auditory and visual processing—and training the brain to function differently—can offer real and lasting transformation for children and adults alike. Dr. Connie's work is helping change the narrative around mental health, empowering people to recognize their potential and reclaim their lives.   In this episode: • What neurofeedback is and how it works to rewire the brain • The root causes of ADHD and why they are often misunderstood • How trauma, anxiety, and learning disabilities relate to brain processing • The importance of a personalized assessment to find hidden challenges • Why the brain can continue to improve and heal—even decades later • Real-life client success stories, from children with dyslexia to veterans with PTSD • How neurofeedback can reduce the need for medication and improve daily functioning • The crucial role of empowering clients beyond diagnostic labels   Resources mentioned in this episode: • Dr. Connie's website: https://www.conniemcreynolds.com • Dr. Connie's book: Solving the ADHD Riddle • Dr. Bessel van den Kolk's Book: The Body Keeps the Score   About Dr. Connie: Dr. Connie McReynolds is a Licensed Psychologist & Certified Rehabilitation Counselor with over 35 years of experience in rehabilitation counseling and psychology. She is the founder of neurofeedback clinics in Southern California, helping children and adults reduce or eliminate ADHD, anxiety, anger, depression, chronic pain, learning challenges, and trauma.

Her work equips individuals, parents, and educators with powerful strategies to transform learning, focus, and daily life. A sought-after speaker, she is dedicated to lasting change.   “The implications are so vast and the possibilities are endless for how this work could really help people—and help our society as a whole.” – Dr. Connie   Would you like to continue this conversation and connect with other people who are interested in exploring these topics?

What if reprogramming your brain after quitting drinking could transform your entire emotional experience?  That's what Fran and Carol are discovering in this powerful episode with Coach Lisa. Fran, the youngest of eight, grew up associating alcohol with love, celebration, and anxiety. Her emotional wiring around alcohol began in early childhood and has run the show for decades—until now. Carol, a longtime health coach, used alcohol to unwind and cope with anxiety and depression. After 13 weeks alcohol-free, she's realizing the emptiness she once filled with wine is now an invitation to feel deeply and live authentically. Through coaching, reflection, and resilience, both women are proof that our emotional landscape isn't fixed—it can be rewired. In Fran's session: How childhood experiences with alcohol shaped Fran's identity Unpacking the dual associations of celebration and fear tied to drinking How early panic sensations created a pattern alcohol numbed out Reprogramming your brain after quitting drinking through micro-disruptions Fran's experiment with being sober around family and staying present How the narrative of alcohol as “connection” can be replaced with real joy The role of curiosity, compassion, and repetition in lasting change and other topics… In Carol's session: Navigating major life events like surgery without reaching for alcohol Feeling “empty” in early sobriety and learning to sit with discomfort Finding joy through nature, faith, and relationship with her husband Why being alcohol-free opened the door to emotional clarity How Carol is learning to design joy without relying on external substances Realizing that joy is a choice, not just a feeling and more… Lisa Kwiatkowski is a Certified Senior This Naked Mind Coach and Designing Your Life Coach. After breaking free from daily drinking in 2018, she now helps high-achieving women overcome anxiety and disconnection through intentional, alcohol-free living.

Send us a textStep into the raw, powerful journey of Justin, a guest returning to the Self Reflection Podcast, as he joins host Lira Ndifon for an unvarnished conversation on mental health. Justin Witte, author of "The Shadowed Soul" and "A Vicious Cycle," shares his extraordinary experience navigating a life marked by profound childhood abuse, chronic suicidal depression, and a litany of diagnoses including schizoaffective bipolar type, ADHD, dyslexia, PTSD, and an organic brain disorder. Now 19 years sober, Justin reveals how self-reflection, a radical shift in perspective, and the ancient practice of meditation (specifically Chautaka or single-pointed concentration) became his roadmap to rewiring his brain and finding inner peace, even when traditional medications failed.This episode fearlessly confronts the escalating mental health crisis, particularly among men. Lira cites jarring statistics: in 2022, men died by suicide 3.85 times more often than women, with white men accounting for 68.46% of these deaths. Suicide was the 11th leading cause of death in America, with 49,476 lives lost and an estimated 1.6 million attempts. Justin unpacks complex societal factors contributing to this crisis, including the isolating impact of technology, shifting gender roles, economic pressures requiring higher education, and the often-unacknowledged struggles of men in modern society. He argues that the increasing disconnect from genuine human interaction and the curated realities of social media exacerbate feelings of worthlessness and contribute to the alarming rise in depression and anxiety. Justin offers profound insights into the nature of suffering, panic attacks, and the illusion of external reality, drawing from his unique blend of personal experience, Western science, and Eastern philosophies like Vedanta. He vividly describes the terrifying grip of panic attacks and how he overcame them through focused meditation, emphasizing the neuroplasticity of the human brain. This conversation is a vital call for empathy and action, urging listeners to seek support if struggling, and to embrace the transformative power of self-expression and connection.

Dr. Jill Carnahan invites Ashok Gupta, an expert in neuroplasticity, to discuss how we can harness the power of the brain to heal from chronic illnesses. This conversation is crucial for anyone interested in understanding how our mental and physical health are interconnected.  Throughout the episode, Ashok Gupta shares his groundbreaking insights on rewiring the brain, explaining how certain thought patterns can perpetuate inflammation and lead to an autonomic imbalance. Using his Gupta Program, Ashok discusses strategic approaches to break these cycles and promote healing and resilience. Join us for this informative and inspiring discussion on Resiliency Radio with Dr. Jill Carnahan. Whether you're struggling with chronic conditions or simply looking to enhance your mental health, this episode with Ashok Gupta is packed with valuable insights and actionable advice. Key Points: ① Neuroplasticity as a Healing Tool: Limbic retraining harnesses the brain's neuroplastic potential to interrupt maladaptive stress and threat responses originating from the amygdala, insula, and anterior cingulate cortex—pathways often implicated in chronic illnesses such as ME/CFS, long COVID, mold toxicity, and chronic Lyme disease. ② Rewiring Dysregulated Threat Perception: The Gupta Program helps patients identify and disengage from unconscious fear-based patterns that perpetuate inflammation, autonomic imbalance, and HPA axis dysregulation—restoring homeostasis through self-directed neurocognitive techniques like visualization, mindfulness, and vagal tone activation. ③ Integration with Functional Medicine: Brain retraining serves as a critical adjunct to biochemical and physiological interventions by addressing the top-down influence of trauma, stress, and limbic system over activation, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of gut-healing, detoxification, and immune-modulating protocols.

Meeting Jason McKeown was like watching someone quietly change the future of healthcare. I first met him through the Rosenman Innovators program—where his company, Neurovalens, was honored in 2022—and it quickly became clear that his vision goes beyond ordinary medicine. A UK-trained doctor with a PhD in non-invasive neurostimulation, Jason is not only a doctor or a researcher; he's a forward-thinking leader who has spent more than a decade combining brain science with technology to help people manage anxiety, insomnia, and metabolic disorders. As the founder and CEO of Neurovalens, Jason has developed devices like Modius Sleep and Modius Stress. Both devices have received FDA approval and work by using gentle electrical signals to adjust the brainstem—the part of the brain that controls stress and sleep. His journey wasn't easy, though. In our conversation, Jason explained how he balanced working as a doctor in the UK with building a startup until 2017, when he made the big decision to focus entirely on Neurovalens. What began as a project inspired by NASA research at UC San Diego has now grown into a mission to make advanced brain therapies available worldwide. What impressed me most was Jason's determination to challenge the norm. Whether he was sharing how veterans can now access Modius devices through the VA or describing how his team's use of remote clinical trials sped up FDA approvals, his work is all about changing the way patient care is delivered. In this episode, Jason explains the science behind non-invasive neurostimulation, discusses the challenges of growing a medtech startup, and tells how a NASA study on astronauts' metabolism led to his obesity-focused device. He also shares why treating investors as key customers early on was a game changer for him. Listening to him, you'll see there is still so much to learn about the brain—and that we might be closer than ever to unlocking its secrets.

The Lent Fast Starts This Wednesday!!!! Get more information and join us here  Today we welcome Jo Hargreaves, a pastor, psychotherapist, writer, and speaker, to explore the intersection of faith, therapy, and mental health.  As the voice behind The Faith-Filled Therapist, Jo is passionate about integrating theology and therapy, scripture and neuroscience, and ensuring that God remains at the center of conversations about mental and emotional well-being. Jo shares powerful insights into attachment theory, nervous system regulation, and emotional resilience, explaining how our earliest experiences shape the way we connect with God and others.  She breaks down the science behind emotional regulation and how rewiring our brains through intentional practices can lead to lasting healing. Key takeaways from this episode include: Attachment theory helps explain our emotional responses and relational patterns. Nervous system regulation is essential for mental and emotional well-being. Compassion—both for ourselves and others—can transform our relationships. Faith and neuroscience are not in conflict; they beautifully complement each other. Self-reflection and a deeper understanding of our emotional patterns can lead to spiritual and psychological healing. Jesus offers a loving presence that creates safety, healing, and wholeness. Jo also speaks on compassion fatigue, especially for women who are constantly pouring into others. She emphasizes the importance of creating space for restoration and self-care, so we can continue to show up fully in our relationships. If you've ever wondered how mental health and faith intersect or how neuroscience and scripture can work together for personal transformation, this conversation is for you. Jo's wisdom, warmth, and faith-filled perspective offer a fresh take on healing—one that blends science, therapy, and the unshakable truth of God's love.

Welcome to the second of a multi-part series where I cover brief and not-so-brief highlights from many of my favorite podcast guests! Learn about Gretchen Rubin’s 4 Tendencies (Upholder, Questioner, Obliger, and Rebel), hear a major life lesson from my 107-year-old barber, and another one from Seth Godin, who reminds us to “turn that s*it off!” when faced with distraction. You’ll hear from Ray Sidney, Google’s fifth-ever employee, on the importance of pure motivation, why Mark Manson says “self-worth is an illusion”, and that our purpose in life is to “create a string of hope narratives.” I share key advice from John Assaraf on how to rewire your brain for success, as well as important words from Dr. Ron Sinha, who warns us of the dangers of rumination and consumerism—the “hedonic treadmill.” You will also hear from Dr. Robert Lustig, who describes the “hacking of the American Mind” with corporate-driven instant gratification dopamine hits, Dr. Judson Brandeis on sexual health, and learn how to improve your eyesight with Jake Steiner. Finally, William Shewfelt offers a powerful perspective on having a resilient success mindset and Jeff Kahn explains the sleep bank account. TIMESTAMPS: In her book, Gretchen Rubin categorizes four main categories that people fall into with their behavior patterns. They are the upholder, the questioner, the obliger, and the rebel. [00:49] Here's what the research shows. The population, 41% of the population are obligers. 24% are questioners, 19% are upholders, and 17% are rebels. [12:55] The world’s oldest barber, at 107, gave Brad a haircut and inspired Brad’s longevity aspirations. [13:40] Seth Godin talked about persevering especially in athletics. [17:24] You must motivate yourself for the right reasons. [19:50] Mark Manson says that self-worth is an illusion, and it's actually a form of persistent low-level narcissism. You can learn to merge your thinking brain with your feeling brain. [23:11] The brain-training expert, John Assaraf, talked about the obstacles to rewiring our brain. You need to take baby steps. [30:31] If you are on the treadmill of the rat race of trying to achieve more and more, you are sacrificing your health and mental well-being. [33:57] When you ruminate about the past, that generally promotes depression and ruminating about the future, generally promotes anxiety. [37:08] Dr. Brandeis contends that 95% of erectile dysfunction problems are psychological. There is nothing wrong with the plumbing. [40:51] Jake Steiner is an expert on vision is challenging some of the foundational premises of using corrective eyewear. [42:47] William Shewfelt talks about having a plan, locking in that mindset and just never giving up. [44:26] Jeff Kahn, sleep expert suggests that you treat your sleep like a bank account. When you experience a deficit for whatever reason, strive to make that up. [48:48] In the last 40 years, government legislation and subsidies have promoted an ever- available temptation combined with constant stress, with the end result of an unprecedented epidemic of addiction, anxiety, depression, and chronic disease.
