Hey Tinnitus Friends & Family, Find all my resources at www.habituate.online Tinnitus can feel like chaos — especially when you're caught in a loop of fear, frustration, and endless searching. But what if there was a predictable path that most people go through on their way to habituation? In this episode, I walk you through the five key stages of tinnitus habituation, based on my work with over 500 clients and our 12-week program inside MyTinnitus.Club. Whether you're brand new to tinnitus or stuck somewhere in the middle, understanding where you are on this journey can be the turning point. You'll learn: • Why the first stage feels so overwhelming (and what your brain is really doing) • What the “fix-it trap” is — and how it keeps people stuck • When and how the mindset shift toward habituation begins • How neuroplasticity, ACT, and daily tools help rewire your response • What full habituation really looks like (and why it's not “perfect silence”)
Dr. Ben explains how anxiety fuels the tinnitus cycle and how breaking that loop through CBT, sound therapy, and nervous system regulation can bring real relief. Discover why changing the brain's reaction, not just focusing on the sound, is the key to recovery.Get started with Treble Health:Schedule a complimentary telehealth consultation: treble.health/free-telehealth-consultation Take the tinnitus quiz: https://treble.health/tinnitus-quiz-1Download the Ultimate Tinnitus Guide: 2024 Edition: https://treble.health/tinnitus-guide-2024

Hey Friends & Family, Here is my free course www.habituate.online In this episode, Tinnitus Coach Frieder shares the one mental shift that can completely change how you experience tinnitus — and why lasting relief isn't about silencing the sound, but changing your relationship to it. You'll learn: • Why tinnitus is not the core problem — your brain's reaction is • How Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness rewire your response • What this mindset shift looks like in real life (with examples from Frieder's coaching and lived experience) • How you can start this shift today, even if your tinnitus feels overwhelming ✨ If you've been stuck in the cycle of chasing cures, masking the sound, or feeling hopeless — this episode will help you take back control.
In our fifth installment in this series, we address the facts & fictions about ginkgo, guarana, and maca supplements in commerce! These were #13, 14, and 15 on the top-selling herbs list for 2023 (the most recent data).This series is all about sharing an herbalist's understanding of herbs very popular as commercial supplements and other mass-market products. We want to share perspectives of both traditional and contemporary herbal practice, so people can understand these are “good for” more than just what's on their labels.It's too easy for herbs to be boxed in to smaller and smaller ranges of application when they're commercialized. This is an antidote to that movement!For practicing herbalists & clinicians, it's very important to know well those herbs which are most commonly consumed. Your clients will ask you about them, or be taking them before they even visit you – so you've got to know what they do! You might be able to give advice about a better remedy, or a compensation for some effect of the plant. This can help your clients just as much as a new recommendation, so don't neglect it.If you're new to herbalism, this can also serve as an inoculation against “herban legends” and misinformation – which is rampant on today's internet.13.

Leah explores the potential connection between Alzheimer's disease and tinnitus in veterans, highlighting how both conditions—often overlooked as related—may actually share neurological links. Drawing from multiple scientific studies, Leah presents compelling evidence that tinnitus could be an early indicator or risk factor for cognitive decline and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, especially in veterans exposed to chronic stress and noise. She emphasizes the importance of discussing symptoms with medical providers and seeking support through accredited VA claims professionals, especially in complex disability cases.
Hey Tinnitus Friends & Family, Find all my resources at www.habituate.online Are you constantly trying to mask your tinnitus with sound therapy, only to find it doesn't really solve the problem? In this episode, I explain why sound therapy can actually hinder your habituation journey—and what to focus on instead to achieve lasting relief. We'll talk about how relying on masking can keep you trapped in the loop of fear and avoidance, and I'll show you a science-based alternative rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). ✨ You'll learn: • Why masking your tinnitus doesn't address the emotional loop behind it • How sound therapy can accidentally reinforce your fear of tinnitus • What strategies actually lead to true habituation and peace • How to retrain your brain using neuroplasticity and emotional resilience
Story at-a-glance A recent large-scale meta-analysis found that people who ate more fruit had significantly lower odds of developing tinnitus than those with low fruit intake Dairy, fiber, and caffeine showed protective benefits as well. Moderate intake of these foods improved circulation, reduced inflammation, and supported inner ear stability A separate study also found that consuming butter and legumes helped calm tinnitus symptoms and stabilize auditory nerve activity MSG and aspartame aggravated symptoms by overstimulating nerves. These common additives disrupt your brain chemistry, heighten auditory sensitivity, and worsen tinnitus by triggering excitotoxic reactions, especially in sensitive individuals Eating whole foods and avoiding excitotoxins is a key strategy. Eliminate processed foods and focus on nutrient-rich meals to reduce nerve overload, balance blood sugar, and protect your auditory system

Today Mack talks about one of his oldest companions, the tinnitus that lives rent-free in his head. Tinnitus can be annoying, for sure–and for some people it's much worse than annoying–but it also has a lot to say of interest, if we're willing to listen: “Tinnitus has been my guide in sound studies, my Virgil, leading me through a shadow world of sound. It's taught me how high the stakes can be when it comes to the perception and control of sound and it's given me new ways to think about how and why we use media devices.” Today we'll learn the basics of tinnitus and hear some tinnitus stories–everyone with tinnitus has one and these stories can teach us a lot about sound and the self. Maybe tinnitus has earned that rent-free headspace, after all. Today's show was written and edited by Mack Hagood. Music is by Joel Styzens.

Send us a textWhy can some people completely forget about their tinnitus when engaged in challenging activities, while others remain painfully aware of it no matter what they do? The answer lies in our brain's complex attention systems, according to Dr. Grant Searchfield.In this illuminating conversation with host Dr. Douglas L. Beck, Dr. Searchfield unpacks his groundbreaking scoping review on attention's role in tinnitus management. While most practitioners acknowledge attention's importance, Searchfield discovered a surprising gap—very few studies actually measure attention changes or make them a central treatment focus. This oversight may explain why tinnitus treatments work differently for different people.When tinnitus first appears, our brain's survival mechanisms automatically flag it as important. This isn't just psychological—it involves neurological changes in how our auditory system connects with other brain regions. Dr. Searchfield explains that effective treatment must address both conscious attention (what we choose to focus on) and automatic attention (what our brain prioritizes without our control).The conversation takes fascinating turns through various treatment approaches, from traditional sound therapy to cutting-edge bimodal stimulation that pairs auditory with tongue or visual stimulation. Dr. Searchfield makes a compelling distinction between passive attention (having background sounds playing) versus active engagement (deliberately focusing on alternative sounds or activities). The latter appears significantly more effective, similar to how active learning outperforms passive observation in education.For anyone struggling with tinnitus or clinicians treating it, this episode offers transformative insights into why combining treatment approaches might be more effective than relying on a single method. The future of tinnitus management likely lies in personalized therapies that target multiple attention pathways simultaneously.Subscribe to Hearing Matters for more breakthrough conversations that bridge hearing science with practical applications.

In this episode, we flip the table and Juan interviews Frank about an article he co-authored for Seminars in Hearing Volume 45, Number 3 (2025). First, a thank you to guest series editor Marc Fagelson, PhD, for the invitation to write this article for Seminars in Hearing. Marc, Frank, and Juan have been collaborating for the last year on an exciting Music Audiology project with the American Tinnitus Association (ATA) and Texas Roadhouse to bring hearing and tinnitus awareness and care to musicians and crew music festivals. This work has been described in detail in the ATA's Tinnitus Today Winter 2024 publication and we discussed it in detail on a panel episode of Talking Ears. Second, this article would not have happened without the contributions and insights from these amazing collaborators: Nancy Gould, M.Ed - Nancy is the Tinnitus Specialist with Tuned Care, and practices on telehealth and in North Carolina. She specializes in mindfulness stress reduction as well as tinnitus retraining. We first connected when she made dramatic differences in the care of many of my patients seen on the Tuned platform through the MusiCares program, so I knew she would have great insights into this article. Melissa Rogel, LMFT - Melissa is a licensed individual and relationship therapist, runs the practice Cooperative Path in the Philadelphia area, and is the drummer of Philly-based indie rock band The Diaphone. She clearly understands the musicians' perspective and brought to light the psychological concepts. Full disclosure: Frank has been playing keyboards and bass with The Diaphone since 2022, so we're bandmates. Thus the article: A Field Guide to Musicians' Tinnitus outlines the differences in psychological presentation and care approaches when working with musicians who have significant tinnitus reactions, then follows a case that Nancy and Frank shared via teleaudiology. Music heard in this episode was written and recorded by Juan Vasquez and produced by Frank Wartinger.
