Podcast appearances and mentions of thomas r verny

Brian interviews Thomas R. Verny, M.D. Thomas is a clinical psychiatrist, academic, and author of eight books, including The Secret Life of the Unborn Child, and The Embodied Mind: Understanding the Mysteries of Cellular Memory, Consciousness, and Our Bodies. He has taught at Harvard University, University of Toronto, York University (Toronto), and St. Mary's University of Minnesota. Thomas Verny talks about how can loneliness affect your health. Perceived social isolation negatively impacts the physical health of both humans and animals, leading to the activation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis, the body's response to stress, and an increase in depressive behaviours. Social isolation and socioeconomic stress have been associated with enhanced inflammation and an impaired immune response.

As I stand at the intersection of heartfelt gratitude and poignant closure, I can't help but reflect on the myriad of voices and perspectives that have graced this podcast. Over the span of two years and 43 episodes, I've had the honor of conversing with a tapestry of brilliant minds—scholars, writers, and medical professionals among them. Each conversation was a thread in the rich quilt of knowledge we've woven together, and as your host,  it's a quilt I'll treasure long after the microphone goes silent.This final episode is a candid look at the podcasting journey, beset with the challenges of standing out in an ocean of content and the bittersweet realization of when to draw the curtain. As I share my experiences and the factors leading to this farewell, I am reminded that every ending is also a commencement. With T.S. Eliot's poetic wisdom as a beacon,  “What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from.” I invite you to join me one last time as I express my deepest thanks to all who have journeyed with us—your companionship has been a gift beyond measure. Though this is my last podcast episode, the quest for knowledge and boundary-pushing continues in my writings, and I encourage you to join me there.If you liked this podcast please tell your friends about it, subscribe to this podcast wherever you listen to podcasts and/or write a brief note on apple podcasts, check out my blogs on Psychology Today at https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/contributors/thomas-r-verny-md

In this episode, we're discussing the concept of the embodied mind with internationally renowned author and psychiatrist, Dr. Thomas R. Verny. Our current understanding of the way the human body works is that it is a series of interdependent physiological relationships. No one component works alone or in isolation. But why is it that the accepted understanding of the physical phenomena of the mind is conventionally attributed only to the brain? The work of Dr. Verny is redefining our concept of both the mind and the human consciousness. He has brilliantly compiled a new list of research that points to the fact that the mind is tied to every single part of the body. This has enormous implications for how we view the mind, consciousness, and even human behavior. More specifically, it changes how we think about the experience of pain and pain management. Tune in and discover what it really means when we say the mind is a function of every system in your body.

Dr Thomas R. Verny, author of the Embodied Mind stops by the show to talk about the mind and the brain. Neuroscientists think of the mind, as an epiphenomenon of the brain. In other words, it's a function of the brain.  Just like urine is a function of the kidneys, or bile is a function of the gallbladder. I think that the mind is a function of the whole body, because all of these cells work together. We have never been able to locate the mind or consciousness in the brain. I called my book “The Embodied Mind”, because it's not just the skull mind. It's not just in the brain not just in the head, it's in the total body, and who knows what happens after we die. It may persist and who knows?Connect with Dr Verny on the web Dr. Thomas R.

Welcome back to Behind Greatness. Today we are joined by Thomas Verny at his home in Stratford, Ontario. He is one of the world's leading experts on the effects of prenatal and postnatal environment on personality. Dr Verny shot to international fame after the publication of his book entitled “The Secret Life of the Unborn Child” in 1982. But fame was never a driver for Thomas. Searching the truth suited him better. We speak to a man today who has had his own private practice for many decades, has published several books, articles, short stories and poems and now who also hosts his own podcast – “Pushing Boundaries with Dr. Thomas R Verny”. But, we also learn about Thomas the Boy who was separated from his parents during the Nazi occupation, who was jailed to be shipped to a concentration camp and who was blessed with people close to him of miraculous love. We learn about the hardships his parents endured also after the War and as new immigrants to North America. And, we learn about the boy who became fascinated with the works of Sigmund Freud at age 13.   With a lifelong interest in memory and mind, Thomas soon went on to help establish the science of Pre & Perinatal Psychology. We discuss his work on cellular intelligence and the central role of the cell membrane vs the nucleus and the importance of the body vs the brain. If that isn't enough, we also discuss his personal experience with a psychic and an illuminating Out of Body experience that became a very informative episode in his life – and possibly an informative one for our host.   And what matters most to Thomas? The teaser says it all.   His is a life lived. And it seems like he's only getting started.   To DONATE to the Behind Greatness podcast, please visit here: https://behindgreatness.org.

In this episode, Xavier Bonilla has a dialogue with Thomas R. Verny about his work on the embodied mind. They discuss Thomas' background and motivation for writing his most recent book and how the embodied mind is an extended mind. They discuss the importance of the gut microbiome and the enteric nervous system. They talk about the vagus nerve, epigenetics, and stem cells and CRISPR. They also provided details on regeneration, hibernation, and metamorphosis using the example of the Planarian flatworm. They also talk about consciousness, the self, and many other topics.  Thomas R. Verny is a psychiatrist and author. He has taught at many academic institutions such as Harvard, University of Toronto, and York University, Toronto. He founded the Pre- and Perinatal Psychology Association of North America (PPPANA, renamed APPPAH—Association for Pre- and Perinatal Psychology and Health – in 1995), and served as its president for eight years. He also launched the APPPAH Journal – the Journal of Pre- and Perinatal Psychology and Health (JAPPAH) (Human Sciences Press, New York), which he edited from its inception until 1990. He is a member of the Ontario Review Board (ORB) and Associate Editor of the Journal of the Association for Pre- and Peri-natal Psychology and Health (JAPPPAH). He has almost 50 papers in the scientific journals and is the author of numerous books, including the most recent, The Embodied Mind: Understanding the Mysteries of Cellular Memory, Consciousness, and Our Bodies. You can find his work at his website. 

The Embodied Mind: Understanding the Mysteries of Cellular Memory, Consciousness, and Our Bodies Show Guest: Dr. Thomas R. Verny A breakthrough book that promises to shift our understanding of the mind-brain connection and reveal the mind's relationship with our bodies. Is the mind within the brain? Dr. Thomas Verny says this is a very limiting belief. Let's dive in! We understand the workings of the human body well enough, right? Muscles interact with bones to move us, as the heart responds to hormones secreted by the brain, all the way down to the inner workings of every cell. No one component can work alone. In light of this, why is it the accepted understanding that the physical phenomenon of the mind is attributed only to the brain? In The Embodied Mind, internationally renowned psychiatrist Dr. Thomas R. Verny sets out to redefine our concept of the mind and consciousness. He brilliantly compiles new research that points to the mind's ties to every part of the body. The Embodied Mind collects disparate findings from many fields of science in order to illustrate the mounting evidence that somatic cells, not just neural cells, store memory, inform genetic coding, and adapt to environmental changes—all behaviors that contribute to the conscious mind. The Embodied Mind shows how intelligence and consciousness—traits traditionally attributed to the brain alone—also permeate our entire being. Bodily cells and tissues use the same molecular mechanisms for memory as our brain, making our minds more fluid and adaptable than we could have ever imagined!

In this episode, Dr. David Hanscom continues his discussion with Dr. Thomas Verny, psychiatrist and best-selling author of The Embodied Mind.  He explains the concept of the embodied mind as a form of “cellular intelligence.“ While traditional neuroscience regards mind as an emergent property of the physical brain, the embodied mind posits that mind is dependent on the entire body, not just the brain. He shares numerous examples of the embodied mind at work including: the relationship between gut health and mental health, the plaques that are thought to cause Alzheimer's disease originating in the liver, and the experience of heart transplant patients adopting characteristics of the donor's personality. Dr. Thomas R Verny is a psychiatrist, Founding President of APPPAH, the Association for Pre and Perinatal Psychology and Health, Founding Editor-in Chief of the APPPAH Journal, author of  47 scientific papers and eight books including the international best seller, The Secret Life of the Unborn Child, published in 27 countries and the recently released, The Embodied Mind. The Embodied Mind shows how intelligence and consciousness—traits traditionally attributed to the brain alone—permeate our entire being. Whether or not we can consciously access a memory, the lived event has left an imprint on our cells and tissues. This is one reason why heart transplants carry memories of the donors.

In this episode, Dr. David Hanscom talks with Dr. Thomas Verny, psychiatrist and best-selling author of The Embodied Mind. He shares how observations from his work with patients led him to the concept of the embodied mind—essentially how functions we normally associate only with the brain are dispersed throughout the cells of the body. One example of this is recalling memories formed before the age of two, which traditional neuroscience postulates is not possible. This may indicate that pre-natal and peri-natal cognition is much more robust than originally believed.

The mystery of consciousness has confounded the western scientific paradigm for centuries. Often considered an epiphenomenon of matter, new information has been accumulating that pushes us beyond that paradigm, and suggests that matter is the floor, or basis of all physical phenomena in the universe. These ideas and perspectives echo older, indigenous religious and philosophical ideas.On this episode Dr. Thomas R. Verny is our guest. Dr. Verny is a psychiatrist, writer and academic. He has previously taught at Harvard University, University of Toronto, York University, Toronto, St. Mary's University, Minneapolis, Minnesota and the Santa Barbara Graduate Institute.Today he will be discussing his new book, The Embodied Mind: Understanding the Mysteries of Cellular Memory, Consciousness, and Our Bodies.

trvernymd@gmail.com The Embodied Mind: Understanding the Mysteries of Cellular Memory, Consciousness, and Our Bodies By Dr. Thomas R. Verny Publisher: ‎ Pegasus Books (October 5, 2021) A breakthrough book that promises to shift our understanding of the mind-brain connection and reveal the mind's relationship with our bodies. Is the mind within the brain? Dr. Thomas Verny says this is a very limiting belief. Let's dive in! So, we understand the workings of the human body well enough, right? Muscles interact with bones to move us, as the heart responds to hormones secreted by the brain, all the way down to the inner workings of every cell. No one component can work alone. In light of this, why is it the accepted understanding that the physical phenomenon of the mind is attributed only to the brain? In The Embodied Mind, internationally renowned psychiatrist Dr. Thomas R. Verny sets out to redefine our concept of the mind and consciousness. He brilliantly compiles new research that points to the mind's ties to every part of the body. The Embodied Mind collects disparate findings from many fields of science in order to illustrate the mounting evidence that somatic cells, not just neural cells, store memory, inform genetic coding, and adapt to environmental changes—all behaviors that contribute to the conscious mind. Cellular memory, Verny shows, is a very well-documented scientific fact that will expand the audience's understanding of memory as a whole! Dr. Verny describes single-celled organisms with no brains demonstrating memory, and points to the remarkable case of a French man who, despite having a brain just a fraction of the typical size, leads a normal life with a family and a job. The Embodied Mind shows how intelligence and consciousness—traits traditionally attributed to the brain alone—also permeate our entire being. Bodily cells and tissues use the same molecular mechanisms for memory as our brain, making our minds more fluid and adaptable than we could have ever imagined! In an interview on your program, Dr. Verny will answer questions such as: What was the most surprising thing that you discovered while writing this book? What are some practical ways the audience can improve their lives with your findings? It seems very easy to get lost in the details of all this. Can you give us the view from 30,000 feet? How do you define the mind? You seem to have some important new perspectives on "mob mentality" Explain. You say it is a limiting belief that the mind is only within the brain. Explain. Since you say that every cell in the body is part of the mind, would personality changes occur after organ transplants, and why? In light of what you say about heart transplants, what are your thoughts on animal to human organ transplants? Scientific emphasis on the brain has been baked into our culture for millennia (i.e. The Head Honcho, Head of State, etc...) How does your work shift this paradigm? How are you addressing the generational trauma that members of minority groups carry? Is part of the consciousness of parents transferred to children in the womb? We hear a lot about emotional intelligence and improving that. Does this play into the picture you're painting? Explain... nd much more!!! Dr. Thomas R. Verny is a clinical psychiatrist and the author of eight books, including The Secret Life of the Unborn Child, which was published in 27 countries and 47 scientific papers.

Kathryn interviews Author Dana Suskind MD. As the pandemic continues to wreak havoc on families, and the Build Back Better plan is stalled in Congress, many parents feel alone, resourceless, and forgotten. But as Dr. Dana Suskind recently wrote in The Hill, parents have the power to become our nation's strongest special interest group. She proposes we must make healthy brain development our North Star, the organizing principle around which our society is oriented. And we must do so by elevating our expectations for how society supports parents, the first and most important architects of children's brains. Suskind is a world-class pediatric surgeon, social scientist, and bestselling author who has been featured in the NY Times, The Economist, Forbes, NPR, and Freakonomics.Kathryn also interviews Author Thomas R.

As the pandemic continues to wreak havoc on families, and the Build Back Better plan is stalled in Congress, many parents feel alone, resourceless, and forgotten. But as Dr. Dana Suskind recently wrote in The Hill, parents have the power to become our nation's strongest special interest group. She proposes we must make healthy brain development our North Star, the organizing principle around which our society is oriented. And we must do so by elevating our expectations for how society supports parents, the first and most important architects of children's brains. Suskind is a world-class pediatric surgeon, social scientist, and bestselling author who has been featured in the NY Times, The Economist, Forbes, NPR, and Freakonomics.Kathryn also interviews Author Thomas R. Verny MD. So, we understand the workings of the human body well enough, right? Muscles interact with bones to move us, as the heart responds to hormones secreted by the brain, all the way down to the inner workings of every cell. No one component can work alone. In light of this, why is it the accepted understanding that the physical phenomenon of the mind is attributed only to the brain? Internationally renowned psychiatrist Dr. Thomas R. Verny sets out to redefine our concept of the mind and consciousness. He brilliantly compiles new research that points to the mind's ties to every part of the body. He collects disparate findings from many fields of science in order to illustrate the mounting evidence that somatic cells, not just neural cells, store memory, inform genetic coding, and adapt to environmental changes—all behaviors that contribute to the conscious mind. He previously taught at Harvard and is presently Associate Editor of the Journal of the Association for Pre and Perinatal Psychology and Health.

The search for the physical basis of consciousness continues to challenge scientists. Wherein lies the mind? On this episode, Dr. Thomas R. Verny discussed his book, The Embodied Mind.

Welcome to “The Emergent Human where we explore Optimizing Health, Embodied Spirituality and Post Conventional Living. Ostrolenk speaks with Dr. Thomas R. Verny, a psychiatrist, writer, lecturer, and academic. Dr. Verny is the founder of PPPANA (now APPPAH), served as its President from 1983 to 1991. Verny was founding editor of the Pre- and Peri-Natal Psychology Journal of which he is presently Associate Editor. Dr. Verny is author of The Secret Life of the Unborn Child with John Kelly, Pre-Parenting with Pamela Weintraub. In total, he has written eight books including the recently published The Embodied Mind and over 47 scientific papers. Dr. Verny discusses what inspired him to pursue a career in Pre- and Peri-Natal Psychology, including clients' accounts of early memories that called into question mainstream thinking on the topic. Dr. Verny also details the disproportionate medical focus on the brain, while memories are also held throughout our body. Greater focus on the rest of the body will improve our capacity to understand and treat disease, introspection, and – ultimately – our free will. To learn more about Dr. Verny's work and the relationship between epigenetics, quantum biology, consciousness, microbiome, hypnosis, out of body experiences, microtubules, and heart transplants, check out his new book “The Embodied Mind: Understanding the Mysteries of Cellular Memory, Consciousness, and Our Bodies” and visit his website: https://www.trvernymd.com. Shout out to retired Navy SEAL Dr Kirk Parsley (https://docparsley.com/ ) for introducing me to Dr Dan Sticker and Mickra Hamilton from Apeiron Center for Human Potential a few years ago. It has been a really good two years working with them.
