Everyone has felt overwhelmed by loud noises, bright lights, or strong smells — but for people with schizophrenia, sensory overload can be constant and intense. Sensory processing dysfunction can make everyday sights, sounds, and touches feel overwhelming, leading to a phenomenon called “sensory flooding.” It can also make it harder to filter out background noise, identify sensory sources, and focus on tasks — sometimes even contributing to symptoms of psychosis like hallucinations and delusions. Hosts Rachel Star Withers and Gabe Howard explore how schizophrenia affects the senses and what this means for daily life. They're joined by Dr. Ray Kotwicki, a psychiatrist and Chief Medical Officer at Hightop Health, who shares expert insights into the science behind sensory processing challenges and how to manage them. Tune in for a fascinating look at the intersection of schizophrenia, sensory overload, and mental health! To learn more -- or read the transcript -- please visit the official episode page. Our guest, Dr. Ray Kotwicki, MD, MPH, DFAPA, is a psychiatrist and the Chief Medical Officer at Hightop Health.  Dr. Kotwicki trained as a Department of Energy Fellow and was a Medical Scholar at the University of Wisconsin Medical School.

He remains a full professor on the adjunctive faculty at both the Emory University School of Medicine as well as the Rollins School of Public Health. Kotwicki has presented more than 425 invited lectures, symposia, and seminars to thousands of attendees.

Send us a textGuess who's back? Back again. An old caller reemerges from the shadows, kicking off a wild and chaotic episode of Not Well. This week, the conversation dives into everything from holiday highs and lows to existential musings and absurd tangents that only Bobby and Jim can pull off.The holidays take center stage as the duo unpacks the weirdness of gift-giving, the stress of unwrapping presents in front of an audience, and the sheer absurdity of obligatory workplace gift exchanges. There's also a candid exploration of body image struggles, including a post-holiday battle with weight gain and self-perception, peppered with a bit of humor and self-deprecation.The episode doesn't hold back as the conversation veers into a discussion about evolving porn preferences, from fantasy-driven storylines to public settings and everything in between. This naturally leads into a reflection on queer spaces like The Eagle, where they share their appreciation for the raw, unapologetic energy of these establishments and lament the loss of that authenticity in some modern spaces.Drag culture takes a turn under the spotlight, with sharp critiques about how mainstream attention has dulled the creative edge of drag performances. There's a longing for more boundary-pushing art and a frustration with the predictability of certain performances. Despite the critiques, there's still respect for drag as a vital part of queer expression and culture.New Year's Eve antics are recounted in vivid detail, including awkward party moments, over-the-top social interactions, and a bit of introspection about the exhausting nature of large gatherings. There's a hilarious tangent about small talk and how draining it is, especially in high-energy social settings.The episode is rounded out by a series of unfiltered rants, including one about restaurant service during the holidays and the oddly frustrating world of twist-tie trash bags. A vision of a world without buttholes becomes a centerpiece of one of the more absurd yet surprisingly profound tangents.Finally, the episode wraps up with a critical take on RuPaul's Drag Race and a promise to keep challenging norms while staying true to the chaotic, queer energy that defines Not Well.This episode is an unfiltered, hilarious, and thought-provoking ride, filled with the trademark humor and raw honesty that listeners love.Support the showAs always you can write us at nowellpodcast@gmail.com or call us at ‪(614) 721-5336‬ and tell us your Not Wells of the week InstagramTwitterBobby's Only FansHelp us continue to grow and create amazing content, like a live tour or just help fund some new headphones when needed.

Why are empaths more susceptible to experiencing trauma than most? Are you a sensitive person? Are you an empath with a more sensitive and perceptive system? What is happening is that our nervous system is more sensitive, receiving information that others don't, feeling things that others don't, which means having an uncontrollable body response to imperceptible changes in the environment. Like being in a noisy crowd and not able to turn it off, our sensitivity can lead to overwhelm. Which leads to the hard truth, while being sensitive may be a superpower sometimes, it more often than not is overwhelming for our system and causes a trauma response in our body. Pretty soon we can be having emotional meltdowns, or physical health symptoms that are embarrassing or ones that we think are random. In this episode, I chat with Dr. Judith Orloff to explore the ways in which this can lead to a greater susceptibility to trauma, as well as how to embrace the unique gifts that heightened sensitivity brings. Dr. Orloff is a UCLA trained psychiatrist and has been called “the godmother of the empath movement”. She synthesizes traditional medicine with cutting-edge knowledge of intuition, energy, and spirituality, and believes in the power of integrating this wisdom. In this episode, you'll learn: Why highly sensitive people are more prone to trauma  The different types of overwhelming situations an empath might encounter  The hidden needs of empaths Why empaths are more vulnerable to physical health symptoms  How this level of sensitivity can actually be a superpower Practical strategies for empaths, like sensory inventories and boundary setting, to not just survive but thrive For more information and show notes, please visit our website: https://biologyoftrauma.com/biology-of-trauma-podcast/

When you know someone's musical tastes, it can affect what you think of that person. It can even impact how attractive you find someone. I begin this episode with an explanation of the link between music and relationships. https://www.medindia.net/news/Music-Predicts-Sexual-Attraction-80223-1.htm You've likely never thought about this but – notebooks have changed the world. When people started writing things down in notebooks, diaries, ledgers and lists, it was astonishing what happened and continues to happen to this day. All you have to do is think for a moment what life would be like without notebooks and you get a glimpse of how important they are. Here to tell the story of the magical power of the humble notebook is Roland Allen. He is author of book, The Notebook: A History of Thinking on Paper (https://amzn.to/3NGd2B8). You have certainly heard the warnings about how too much screen time is bad for you. I suspect most of us wish we spent less time scrolling on our phone or surfing on our computer or tablet but that screen has become such an important part of daily life. And what exactly is the harm anyway? Here to discuss this is Dr. Richard Cytowic. He is a professor of neurology at George Washington University and author of the book Your Stone Age Brain in the Screen Age: Coping with Digital Distraction and Sensory Overload (https://amzn.to/4hsyVBp). Meaningless words can be very persuasive. And advertisers know that. For example, a shampoo can promise to make your hair 5x silkier – but what exactly does that mean? How do you measure your hair's silkiness? And that's just one example. Listen as I explain why this is important. Source: Charles Seife author of Proofiness (https://amzn.to/3NL55KY).

This coexistence of opposites is a powerful teacher in the yogic tradition, where we are called to witness without attachment. The practice of holding both beauty and pain with equanimity lies at the heart of our spiritual evolution. Embracing the Extremes: Beauty and Suffering Intertwined India amplifies the senses. The vibrant markets, ornate temples, and intricate craftsmanship offer a feast for the eyes, while the rawness of human suffering confronts us at every corner. It is tempting to be swept away by either extreme—to revel in the beauty or to grieve the suffering—but true wisdom lies in the ability to hold both without preference. Life's richness comes not from avoiding discomfort or chasing pleasure, but from embracing the tension between the two. The Spiritual Path: Detachment in the Face of Duality The mind seeks to categorize experiences as ‘good' or ‘bad,' yet the teachings remind us that duality is an illusion. We are called to bear witness to both extremes, knowing that they are transient and that neither defines the deeper reality. The practice of detachment, of seeing without being swayed by the highs or the lows, is essential on the spiritual path. In navigating life's contrasts, we cultivate a stillness within—one that remains unshaken by the duality of external circumstances. This is the essence of our practice, and it is here that we find our deepest strength and wisdom.

In this episode I am interviewing a neuroscientist and a writer who has done a lot of work on synesthesia, or the melding of sense perceptions. His most recent book delves into how we can take back control of our attention from addictive social media. This should be of interest to most of us, and especially to parents of young children and teenagers who don't know what to do to help their kids put down the devices and engage with life. Dr. Richard E. Cytowic, a pioneering researcher in synesthesia, is Professor of Neurology at George Washington University. He is the author of Synesthesia, The Man Who Tasted Shapes, The Neurological Side of Neuropsychology, and, with David M. Eagleman, the Montaigne Medal–winner Wednesday Is Indigo Blue: Discovering the Brain of Synesthesia. His new book is entitled, ‘YOUR STONE AGE BRAIN IN THE SCREEN AGE: Coping with Digital Distraction and Sensory Overload'.

Neuroscientist Richard Cytoowic discusses his book Your Stone Age Brain in the Screen Age: Coping with Digital Distraction and Sensory Overload.

There's a significant mismatch between our ancient brain's capabilities and the rapid advancements in technology. Simply put, our brains just can't keep up in the digital age. But what does that impact look like from the brain's point of view? What's really going on with the neurotransmitters when we take in all that information? Richard Cytowic is a professor of neurology at George Washington University. His books like Your Stone Age Brain in the Screen Age: Coping with Digital Distraction and Sensory Overload and The Man Who Tasted Shapes examine the effects of technology on the brain and explore the rare but very real phenomenon of synesthesia. Richard and Greg chat about the energy economics of brain function, the inherent limitations of multitasking, and the benefits of a digital detox. They also explore synesthesia, how human neurology is uniquely wired for metaphor, and how babies might all have some form of synesthesia early on. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Why multitasking is exhausting your brain04:05: Our brains today are no different from those of our distant ancestors. I mean, they have not evolved one iota, whereas technology has been advancing ten thousand, a million times more than that. So I do think we've reached the point where we're asking it to do what it simply can't do anymore. The brain has a fixed level of energy that it can use, and no amount of diet, exercise, supplements, or Sudoku puzzles can possibly increase that. So when you're asking it to multitask or to keep switching attention from one thing to another, you're asking it to do things that it was never designed to do, that it can't do very well, if at all. And so that's why people are burned out and fatigued.Why are people so concerned about what they put in their bodies, but not about what their mind consumes?35:13: People are so concerned about what they put in their bodies—non-GMO, vegan, no sugar, no artificial colorings. But why aren't they as picky about what they ingest through their senses? I mean, the mental garbage that we take in is certainly less harmful than the occasional cheeseburger and Twinkie. So people just don't think in terms of, "What is my sensory diet?" And again, I'm so unusual because I'm thinking neurologically and neuropsychologically, and most people never have the opportunity or the inclination to think about the way that they think—this metacognition kind of thing.Quiet is an essential nutrient 15:03: Quiet is the antidote to everything. I call it an essential nutrient. We need it to give ourselves space to think. And part of it has to do, I think, with people feeling that they don't like solitude. They think being alone is an odious, difficult state. But I say that solitude has. Loneliness wants. And so if you can distinguish between the two—that here, sitting in a park with a tree and a green space, and I'm quite happy, eating my lunch here in solitude—then this is a positive experience for me. I'm giving myself a nourishing experience. But if I'm thinking, Oh my God, I'm all alone. There's nobody to talk to. I don't know what to do; you're doing a number on yourself and freaking yourself out.The iPad as babysitter29:52: The iPad is the worst babysitter in the world. Look at a baby when they get to be on the move and start crawling. They put everything in their mouths. They're touching, feeling, and having a visual apprenticeship with the world. And when you put this screen full of mediated images in front of them, those characters, if they're Disneyfied or not, don't engage with the child in the same way that a real human being does. They talk at a child. They don't talk with a child. Whereas an adult who's playing peek-a-boo, and "so big," and other kinds of things like that, they're speaking to the child in normal adult language. And these kids are picking things up like sponges, believe me, and that's what they need to have. They need to have that one-on-one interaction.Show Links:Recommended Resources:What percentage of your brain do you use? | TED-EdWilliam JamesClifford Nass Her (film)Bernard-Henri LévyThe Revenge of Analog: Real Things and Why They Matter by David SaxDaphne MaurerGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at George Washington UniversityProfessional WebsiteLinkedIn ProfileHis Work:Your Stone Age Brain in the Screen Age: Coping with Digital Distraction and Sensory OverloadSynesthesia The Man Who Tasted ShapesWednesday Is Indigo Blue: Discovering the Brain of Synesthesia

Do you ever feel like you're at the end of your rope, and you never feel truly rested? Join Jenn as she discusses how to take a step back and look at what type of rest your body needs in order to recharge. In this episode, Jenn is sharing the 7 different types of rest. She walks us through each type and shares the different ways that you can implement that type of rest into your day or busy routine. From mental rest to spiritual rest, your brain and body require some time to relax and just be. The tips you'll hear in this episode will help you determine which type of rest you need and how to approach getting it in a way that doesn't feel like another overwhelming task! Tune in to determine how you'll spend time in your “nothing box”.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: [5:29] Jenn shares the 7 types of rest. [7:08] What are the benefits of sleep and what types of sleep are there? [8:43] How can you prioritize mental rest? [14:14] What is social rest and what are some examples?  [17:08] Why is spiritual rest so important?[23:09] What is sensory rest and how does our everyday life impact our senses?[29:25] How can you fit more emotional rest into your life?[33:19] What are options for creative rest?[36:15] How do you determine which type of rest you need most?  KEY TAKEAWAYS: The first step of determining what type of rest you need is to ask your body what needs to be restored.

If you are a parent, modeling this for your children will help them learn to prioritize their rest and wellbeing as well! QUOTES: [14:20] “Everyday social interactions for introverts, socializing can be very exhausting and draining, but even for people who wouldn't identify as introverts, social rest can be really valuable. This gives us a chance to recharge and a big piece of this is actually maintaining our boundaries.” - Jenn Trepeck [24:35] “Frankly we just live in a world of overstimulation and that over stimulation creates a lot of the exhaustion and our brain is always going because there is constant input.” - Jenn Trepeck [31:40] “Where do you feel like you're not even feeling things? Like things can be crazy around you and you're sort of like blinders on, focused, moving forward. That's a great indication that we could use a little emotional rest.” - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:There's not Enough Time in the Day EpisodeMeditation for Stress EpisodeSlow Down...Yeah Right?

If your kid could just handle the regular every day stuff your summer would be much more enjoyable, right? Maybe it's the splashing sounds at the pool that suddenly overwhelm your child's senses. Or the booming fireworks that terrify them despite your assurances it will be okay. Heck, it could even be putting on sunscreen before a fun beach day that sets them off.

Restaurants are a multi-sensory experience, and if you've got a neurodivergent child, you know that multi-sensory doesn't always necessarily mean a good thing. Between the sensory overload, confined space and social expectations of "behaving" in a restaurant, it makes sense why eating out as a family feels stressful for some families. Today I'll peel back the layers and talk about the specific triggers that are contributing to dysregulation, and give strategies to best support your children.  Plus hacks for keeping busy at the table.

People struggling with chronic or disordered states of anxiety often find themselves in a situation where they are hyper aware and therefore overwhelmed by sensory input. Non-anxious humans are so oblivious to what we sense that we sometimes pay to have people tell us to notice what our eyes, ears, noses, and skin are sending and perceiving. But for anxious people dealing with chronic or disordered forms of anxiety, this is not a problem at all. We have the opposite issue. We are constantly paying very close attention to sensory input. We are hyper aware.Why are we hyper aware?  Because we MUST evaluate ourselves constantly to stay ahead of our triggers. Anxious people are continually checking themselves for physical sensations that don't seem right, thoughts that might be going south, or emotions that they won't be able to handle.  If you're here today listening or watching, I would wager a large sum that a good portion of your time is spend checking on yourself, then evaluating the results of that internal scan to to see if you're OK, or you have to start taking evasive action to stay safe … from yourself.Episode 290 of The Anxious Truth provides a reframe on sensory overload and overwhelm that ties the experience directly to an overactive, overprotective threat detection and response system. This reframe and explanation could be helpful in informing new action that helps us learn the experiential lessons we need to learn in recovery.For full show notes on this episode:https://theanxioustruth.com/290For more anxiety and recovery resources:https://theanxioustruth.comDisclaimer: The Anxious Truth is not therapy or a replacement for therapy.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Becky Kennedy, Ph.D., a clinical psychologist, bestselling author, and founder of Good Inside, an education platform for parents and parents-to-be. We discuss actionable protocols for raising resilient, emotionally healthy kids and effective alternatives to typical forms of reward and punishment that instead teach children valuable skills and strengthen the parent-child bond. These protocols also apply to other types of relationships: professional, romantic, friendships, siblings, etc.  We explain how to respond to emotional outbursts, rudeness, and entitlement, repair fractured relationships, build self-confidence, and improve interpersonal connections with empathy while maintaining healthy boundaries.  We also discuss how to effectively communicate with children and adults with ADHD, anxiety, learning challenges, or with “deeply feeling” individuals.  The conversation is broadly applicable to all types of social interactions and bonds. By the end of the episode, you will have learned simple yet powerful tools to build healthy relationships with kids, teens, adults, and oneself.

Did you know there are several different types of rest beyond just sleeping? Coming from a 'we don't know what we don't know' standpoint, today's episode has the potential to be both a game-changer and life-changing as we unveil how identifying and fulfilling these diverse types of rest can revolutionize your health, happiness, and productivity. Tony Overbay, LMFT, interviews Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith about her book 'Sacred Rest: Recover Your Life, Renew Your Energy, Restore Your Sanity' (https://amzn.to/3TFp6GZ). They discuss the critical distinction between sleep and rest, amplified through Dr. Saundra's 'Seven Types of Rest' framework. Dr. Saundra shares the seven types of rest she has found lacking in the lives of those she encounters in her clinical practice and research - physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, sensory, social, and creative - and explains why a deficiency in any one of these types of rest can have unfavorable effects on your health, happiness, relationships, creativity, and productivity. This episode highlights the importance of self-care and the need to become a personal health advocate. Dr. Saundra shares her experiences with burnout, which led to an emphasis on rest in her life. They discuss issues related to work-life balance and the over-reliance on screens and identify areas for enhancing rest that most people aren't aware of. Then, Tony took Dr. Saundra's 'rest quiz' and reviewed the results.
