Head injuries extend beyond the brain, impacting multiple organ systems and leading to complex complications. In this episode, we explore traumatic brain injury, its systemic effects and complications , and key considerations in critical care management.

Today's guest calls traumatic brain injury (TBI) “a silent epidemic”, describing a common yet complex injury that, for many, presents with chronic symptoms. In this episode, host Rachel Land speaks with expert guest Dr. Kyla Pearce, Senior Director of Programs, Research & Operations for the LoveYourBrain Foundation – a national nonprofit that delivers evidence-based holistic health programs for the brain injury community. Because individual experiences of TBI vary widely, it can be a daunting thing to work with as a yoga teacher. Dr. Pearce talks about the under-appreciated importance of social support and the delicate balance of giving students agency without creating overwhelm. She also offers best practices for movement and breath work, and discusses the power of visualization. Listen in to learn how to use yoga as a healing modality for traumatic brain injuries. — Show Notes: Defining Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) [3:38] Surprising causes of brain injury [5:28] Common symptoms of brain injury [6:21] The mission of the LoveYourBrain Foundation [12:45] Evidence-based research outcomes [17:14] Yoga for brain injury versus other trauma [19:29] Challenges for yoga students with TBI (and their teachers) [24:50] Balancing student agency and simplicity [33:23] Suggested practices [39:57] “Cognitive preparation” cueing [45:00] Preferred meditation and breath work techniques [47:32] How to know when students need up-regulation [55:23] Summing up, final takeaways [58:18] — Links Mentioned: Watch this episode on YouTube Learn more about LoveYourBrain's certification-level yoga teacher trainings, resources, and research-backed holistic health programs for TBI/concussion Learn more about LoveYourBrain Yoga for Traumatic Brain Injury, Level 1 & Level 2, 20-hr online training for yoga teachers, yoga therapists, and people in the brain injury community Learn more about LoveYourBrain Yoga for Health Professionals, 20-hr online training for clinicians Previous Yoga Medicine Podcast Episodes: Episode 47: Concussion Care with Dr. Daya Grant Episode 30: Trauma Informed Yoga with Dr. Ann Bortz Yoga for Concussions Online Course with Dr. Daya Grant You can learn more about this episode and see the full show notes at YogaMedicine.com/podcast-147.

On this episode of "The Valley Today," host Janet Michael welcomed listeners to a heartfelt and informative discussion about brain injury support in the Shenandoah Valley. Joined by Gina Hilliard, President of the Luray Page Chamber of Commerce, and special guests Sarah Outler and Lisa Bell from Brain Injury Connections of the Shenandoah Valley, the conversation shed light on the challenges faced by survivors and the vital resources available to them. Understanding Brain Injury: More Than Meets the Eye From the outset, the guests emphasized that brain injuries come in many forms. Lisa Bell, Northern Region Case Manager, explained the distinction between traumatic brain injuries—often caused by external events like car accidents or sports injuries—and acquired brain injuries, which can result from strokes, aneurysms, or medical incidents. Importantly, the organization supports individuals with both types, except for those born with brain injuries. Sara Outler, Outreach and Advancement Manager, highlighted the organization's client-centered approach. "Every brain injury is unique," she noted, underscoring the importance of tailoring support to each individual's goals and needs. All services are provided free of charge, thanks to grants and community funding, ensuring accessibility for everyone in need. Case Management: Guiding the Path to Recovery Transitioning from definitions to real-life impact, the conversation delved into the role of case managers. Lisa described how she connects clients with community resources, assists with practical needs like housing or volunteering, and supports both survivors and their caregivers. Rather than doing everything for clients, she empowers them to take steps toward their own goals, fostering independence and confidence. Janet observed that such support is invaluable, especially for families who may feel lost after a loved one's injury. Lisa agreed, noting the scarcity of resources in rural areas and the importance of extending help to caregivers, who often face their own set of challenges. Programs That Make a Difference The discussion then turned to innovative programs offered by Brain Injury Connections. Sara introduced "Mind Matters," a new initiative focused on concussion awareness and recovery, particularly for youth athletes. She stressed the need for proper protocols and education for coaches, parents, and teachers, pointing out that children require longer recovery times than adults after a concussion. Additionally, the PALS program pairs survivors with volunteers for monthly social outings, combating the isolation that often follows a brain injury. Whether it's a coffee date or a shared hobby over Zoom, these connections help rebuild confidence and provide much-needed companionship. Building Awareness and Community Connections Throughout the episode, the guests emphasized the importance of spreading awareness. Many people who could benefit from services simply don't know they exist. Sara encouraged listeners to visit the organization's website (bicsv.org), where they can find resources, contact information, and details about support groups—both virtual and in-person. Lisa added that friends and family members unsure how to support a loved one with a brain injury are welcome to reach out for advice. The organization is committed to helping not just survivors, but their entire support network. Looking Ahead: Events and Engagement As the conversation wrapped up, Gina shared upcoming community events, including a business seminar on holiday marketing and a women's paint-and-sip evening. These gatherings, she noted, are opportunities to connect, learn, and support one another as the holiday season approaches.

MARIYA JAVED-PAYNE, MSW, LICSW, LADC is a somatic psychotherapist specializing in healing trauma, complex trauma, addiction, generational and racial trauma, and oppression in the body. She is both a practitioner and teacher of “Brainspotting” a powerful technique in healing trauma. Mariya says, “I am a woman. I am a body of culture. I am a person in recovery. I am an immigrant. I am a student of life. I am a partner, educator, sister, daughter, and friend. I am a passionate and curious individual dedicated to creating health and wellness for individuals, communities, and societies. I believe in deep, nourishing, and holistic change that heals from the roots up.” I was born in India and lived in France, Brazil, and the United States all before the age of six. My experience with vastly different cultures piqued my curiosity about humans and diverse societies from a young age. Blending and assimilating my culture of origin with the United States has been and continues to be an integral part of my story. It has also shaped my ability to assist others in reclaiming their identities as multi-dimensional and complex human beings. These early life experiences in global societies defined my open worldview and appreciation for the diverse walks of life that humanity encompasses. I am grateful for the expansiveness they have provided my foundation. My own journey with addiction and my challenging path to recovery over ten years ago has also given me depth and compassion as a therapist. I gained a firsthand understanding of the quest of the human mind to find a sense of belonging and settledness in an ever-shifting world. These experiences have given me the ability to approach all people with openness, non-judgment, and patience. They have also taught me to be tenacious in my pursuit of healing self and others. Hope is a powerful survival mechanism. www.awakenconsultingservices.com

Police reports are often seen as the “official story” after a crash—but are they always accurate? In this episode of After the Crash Podcast, attorney David Craig and paralegal Holly Hines answer one of the most common questions families ask after a semi-truck wreck: how much weight should you give a police report?Police reports can provide details like witness names and statements, but they are not always complete—and sometimes they're wrong. Many families are surprised to learn:✔️ Reports are often delayed or missing information.✔️ Trucking companies may use them to their advantage.✔️ Reports can be challenged, corrected, or supplemented with investigation.✔️ A report alone doesn't determine fault in a truck accident case.David and Holly share stories where the initial report wrongly placed blame—and how deeper investigation uncovered the truth. They also explain what families can do if they believe a police report is inaccurate, and why hiring an experienced truck accident lawyer with the right team makes all the difference.—01:22 – Meet Steve Grover: Canadian Personal Injury Lawyer07:51 – Steve Grover's Story: Why He Chose Injury Law11:12 – Traumatic Brain Injuries in Personal Injury Cases18:08 – Jury Trials in Canada vs. the U.S.19:09 – Semi-Truck Accidents: How Long Cases Take in Canada21:56 – Legal Advertising: Canada vs. U.S. Lawyers23:12 – How to Find a Personal Injury Lawyer in Canada24:55 – Why Continuing Education Matters for Injury Lawyers27:37 – Steve Grover's Book Load 'Er Up and Drive Safe31:31 – What to Know About the Grover Law Firm33:16 – Why Resources Matter in Injury Cases37:53 – Hidden Insurance in Personal Injury Cases38:58 – Signs of a Trustworthy Law Firm40:11 – The Role of AI in Modern Law Firms42:25 – How Involved Steve Grover Is in Cases Today43:53 – Why Motorcycle Accident Cases Are a Focus for Grover45:24 – How Riding Shapes Steve Grover's Perspective46:37 – Premises Liability in Canadian Injury Law49:14 – Statute of Limitations in Canadian Injury Cases50:22 – Tort Reform: The Biggest Challenge for Injury Lawyers52:29 – How Steve Grover Gives Back to the Community—If you or someone you know has been involved in a truck crash, don't wait.Visit https://ckflaw.com or call 1-800-ASK-DAVID for experienced legal help.—Why Listen to After the Crash?Navigating the aftermath of a trucking accident can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to face it alone.

He describes how these interventions helped reopen neural pathways, restoring emotional connection and impulse control after years of numbness and frustration.

Send us a textPsychedelics are in the spotlight. Some call them dangerous, others call them life-saving, and many believe they could reshape the future of mental health care. In this episode, Dr. Eeks talks with Martín Polanco MD, founder of The Mission Within Foundation and considered the most experienced ibogaine and 5-MeO-DMT physician in North America. Over the past 25 years, he has treated more than 5,000 people — including over 1,300 veterans and special operators — giving him unmatched clinical credibility in a field often clouded by hype, controversy, and hope.Dr. Polanco shares his perspective on why veterans and frontline workers struggling with overlapping mental health challenges — PTSD, addiction, depression, traumatic brain injury — are increasingly turning to these psychedelic medicines when conventional options fall short.This episode covers:What ibogaine and 5-MeO-DMT are, how they work in the brain, and what sets them apart from other psychedelics.Why mental health conditions rarely show up one at a time, and how these medicines may help with complex, co-occurring issues.How Dr. Polanco's center guides people through treatment, integration, and long-term support — and why integration is just as important as the medicine itself.Results in veterans and first responders: what's been seen, how long benefits last, and the factors that sustain recovery.The real risks, especially cardiac risks, and the safety protocols in place to minimize them.Misconceptions about psychedelic therapy and where skepticism is justified.The launch of the Mission Within Foundation, which has already raised over $2 million to provide psychedelic therapy scholarships for veterans and first responders.Why partnerships with institutions like UT Austin Dell Medical School are critical for building a scientific evidence base and wider acceptance.And finally: whether ibogaine and 5-MeO-DMT are ready for mainstream mental health care, or if the science still needs to catch up.This is a candid conversation about possibility, risk, and the urgent need for new tools in mental health.You can contact Dr. Eeks at bloomingwellness.com.Follow Eeks on Instagram here.Or Facebook here.Or X.On Youtube.Or TikTok.SUBSCRIBE to her monthly newsletter here!

In 2015 I was reintroduced to breathwork, and after feeling the benefits as well as the massive shift this brought into my life, I switched professions and dedicated my life to helping others discover their own personal power to help themselves.Since then I have traveled worldwide studying different breathwork modalities. My first introduction to conscious breathwork was through the Wim Hof Method, which included weeks of instruction from Wim Hof himself. I was the first American Instructor to help lead the Wim Hof winter expeditions in Poland, and I continue to expand my knowledge in this and other breathwork modalities. Now, for more than half a decade, I have been working in a healthcare setting applying foundational and functional breath coupled with specific breathwork protocols to help reduce chronic pain, anxiety, and depression. My goal is to empower people through their own personal and individual breathwork.""Everyone's physiology is different, I know there is no cookie cutter approach to optimal health, however I believe that functional breathing can positively impact everyone."

Think you know everything about Breathwork? Think again! This week on Dawnversations, I sit down with Chuck McGee, a Type 1 Diabetic and Traumatic Brain Injury survivor who discovered a surprising key to healing and resilience: breathwork. After experiencing a massive shift in his own health, Chuck left his former career to dedicate his life to teaching others how to unlock the power of their breath.From studying directly with Wim Hof (yes, that Wim Hof) and helping lead winter expeditions in Poland, to applying breathwork in healthcare settings to ease chronic pain, anxiety, and depression — Chuck has seen firsthand how the way we breathe can transform the way we live.In this conversation, we myth-bust what breathwork actually is (hint: it's not just deep breathing), explore its role in mental and physical health, and talk about why there's no one-size-fits-all approach to wellness.✨ If you've ever wondered how something as simple and natural as your breath could be the missing piece in your health puzzle, this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode of the Trauma and Burn Anesthesia Series, we examine traumatic brain injury, the leading cause of trauma-related death in the U.S., affecting over a million people annually and leaving millions with long-term disability. We discuss the importance of the Glasgow Coma Scale, the types of primary injuries such as subdural, epidural, and intraparenchymal hematomas as well as diffuse axonal injury, and how these lead to increased intracranial pressure, herniation, and neurological decline. We explore secondary brain injury from hypotension, hypoxemia, hypercapnia, and hyperthermia, emphasizing the need to maintain adequate perfusion and oxygenation while balancing damage control resuscitation. Key management strategies include hyperosmolar therapy, ICP monitoring, CSF drainage, hyperventilation, mannitol use, steroids, seizure and infection prophylaxis, and cautious fluid therapy. We also cover practical intraoperative considerations, avoiding excessive anesthetics, carefully managing CSF drains, and adjusting ventilation, while highlighting the added complexity when TBI patients also present with massive hemorrhage.Want to learn more?

Episode 591 - Francene Gillis - Where Did i Go - A Memoir Plus, Mild Traumatic Brain Injury MTBIFrancene Gillis, author/consultant/educator/advocate, has been a writer her whole life, starting at the age of five with a writing contest created by her teacher at Port Hood Consolidated, Mother St. Magdalene. Fifty years later, she is still writing in multiple genres, both fiction and nonfiction for a variety of audiences. She devoured books in the school library and putting words to paper became therapeutic when life's tragedies hit. She discovered that her writing could speak for those in pain. Experiencing the devastating loss of loved ones, much of her first writings involved themes of inspiration, loss, overcoming adversity, and sharing her feelings with others so they would not feel alone. She started writing poetry as a teen and giving it to grieving friends, or as tributes to community members. She majored in English at St. Francis Xavier University, continued with a BEd, and obtained a master's in education in Multiculturalism, Administration & Leadership. A community activist, she writes advocacy pieces, such as those gathered in her book, A Rose in November and in her regular column for the Inverness Oran.Her latest book, Where Did i Go? A Memoir Plus, will launch June 2025, partner published by OC Publishing. It was written after her career as a high school English teacher came to an unexpected, painful end in 2016 due to a slip and fall on black ice on her way to work that caused mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Except for educational purposes, Francene has always lived in Port Hood on the coast of Cape Breton, NS. with the ocean at her backdoor.https://www.francenegillis.ca/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that helps you experience emotional freedom. In this episode, host Laura Milliken welcomes Dana Hernandez, a Masters Level Splankna Practitioner and Executive Director of multiple Brain Balance Centers in Atlanta, GA. Dana brings a unique perspective as she combines Splankna with her work at Rizoo Counseling, helping clients address the deep connections between trauma and brain function. Together, Laura and Dana dive into what happens in the brain during trauma—specifically how the right hemisphere, home to our subconscious, creativity, and emotional processing, often “goes offline” in the aftermath of painful experiences. Dana shares practical ways to support right-brain healing and balance the two hemispheres, along with insights into how to recognize signs of imbalance. This episode will help you better understand the neurological impact of trauma and give you hope that restoration is possible. ✨ Takeaways: How trauma impacts the right brain and subconscious functioning Why the right hemisphere is key for emotional regulation, creativity, and connection Practical ways to support and strengthen right-brain activity after trauma Signs that suggest your brain hemispheres may be out of balance How Splankna and Brain Balance work together to restore healing and wholeness

Six root causes fuel this cycle, including toxic thought loops, gaslighting, family dynamics, and the fear of silence. Personal stories reveal how rambling dilutes authority and leadership, even when the intention is good. The brain's wiring for safety and early childhood patterns show why this habit is so hard to break, but there are two practical strategies that offer a way forward to stop the spiral, retrain the brain, and speak with clarity and confidence.You'll Learn:How to recognize the signs that you're overexplainingWhy the brain wires this habit as a safety mechanismThe six root causes that drive overexplaining (you might have more than one)How toxic thought patterns set the stage for ramblingWhat happens when gaslighting or narcissistic dynamics distort your truthWhy overexplaining can become a barrier when you haven't felt heardThe peacekeeper role and how blame can fuel overexplainingWhy being chatty often fills the silence and masks discomfortTwo ways to start overcoming the verbal vomit cycle todayTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[06:02] How the brain wires overexplaining as a safety response[07:12] Toxic thought patterns as the first root cause[08:04] Being gaslit or living with a narcissist[10:57] Overexplaining as a barrier when you haven't been heard[12:34] Justification to prove worthiness or avoid judgment[14:05] The peacekeeper role and carrying blame[16:00] How chatty space-filling masks anxiety or discomfort[21:27] Neurodivergence and traumatic brain injury as factors[22:58] Two practical ways to disrupt and rewire the overexplaining cycleResources Mentioned:How Your Birthdate Can Reveal Patterns of Challenges and Transformation with Michelle Dowker | Spotify or AppleFind More From Dr. Stephanie Davis:Dr. Stephanie Davis | WebsiteQuantum Rx | InstagramQuantum Rx | Skool

Most people think electroshock therapy was abandoned decades ago. The unfortunate truth is it's still widely used, with well over 100,000 (probably much higher) Americans receiving ECT every year.Yet the devices have never been properly safety tested.In this episode, Dr. Roger McFillin sits down with Sarah Price Hancock, a certified rehabilitation counselor, educator, and survivor who underwent 116 ECT treatments. Sarah lost 85–90% of her memories from the first 36 years of her life, developed neurological complications, and later learned her original psychiatric symptoms weren't even a mental illness.Life After ECT website Dr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

Success isn't just about hustle—it's about surviving the chaos of growth.Jason Long knows this better than most. After building a 30-person agency, he lost it all in the 2008 crash, nearly died in a horrific car accident, and spent years rebuilding both his businesses and himself.In this episode, Jason and I get real about what scaling actually takes—the mistakes most entrepreneurs make, and the systems that separate struggling founders from professional CEOs.Here's what you'll hear:Why 80-hour work weeks are a badge of failure, not successThe accident that forced Jason to rebuild his brain—and his businessesHow private equity taught him the power of financial literacyThe frameworks he blends (EOS, OKRs, forecasting) to actually scale companiesThe mindset shift that frees entrepreneurs from burnoutThis one's raw, practical, and packed with lessons you can apply today.

Dr. Tony Ebel sits down with Tim Siegel, co-founder of Team Luke Hope for Minds, for a powerful father-to-father conversation about brain injury, hope, and turning tragedy into purpose. Tim, a former Texas Tech tennis coach, had just resigned to spend more time with his family when his 9-year-old son Luke suffered a devastating golf cart accident resulting in cardiac arrest and severe brain injury.Despite doctors saying Luke would never move, speak, or open his eyes, Tim became his son's primary caregiver and relentless advocate. Through six years of intensive therapies and unwavering love, Luke defied medical predictions. Although Luke passed away from COVID-19 in 2021, his legacy lives on through Team Luke Hope for Minds, which now serves families in 47 states with financial support, education, and hope.This conversation explores the intersection of parental advocacy, cutting-edge neuroscience, and how one family's journey has created a movement helping thousands of families navigate pediatric brain injuries.------Links & Resources:Sign up for the Making Connections Conference HERE.Help a family in need with travel expenses to the conference HEREThe links to Tim's books he mentioned in the podcast:  It's In God's Hands on Amazon Fight Like Luke on AmazonThe link to youtube: A Father a son & their saints (also mentioned in the podcast):ESPN Special: A father, a son, & their saints: Luke Siegel's story had an impact on Drew Brees | NFL CountdownFollow them on on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn!------Key Topics & Timestamps([00:01:00]) - Tim's Background: From Texas Tech tennis coach to full-time father([00:08:00]) - Luke's Story: The golf cart accident and devastating medical prognosis([00:11:00]) - The Breakthrough: Luke responds to the New Orleans Saints' question([00:13:00]) - August 2021: Luke's passing and the journey toward forgiveness([00:18:00]) - Parallel Paths: Dr. Tony shares Oliver's birth injury story([00:25:00]) - Fighting the System: "I don't give a damn about an MRI"([00:27:00]) - Team Luke Hope for Minds: Supporting families across 47 states([00:33:00]) - The Therapy Approach: Combining traditional and alternative treatments([00:38:00]) - Making Connections Conference: October 24-25 in Austin([00:44:00]) - Luke's Legacy: Books, documentary, and continuing impact-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

The Long Shadow: Traumatic Brain Injury in America's VeteransSecrets of Survival (S.O.S.)Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is often called the signature injury of America's post-9/11 wars—but its imprint stretches far beyond the battlefield. In this episode of Secrets of Survival, Dr. Susan Rashid examines the enduring consequences of TBI in veterans, weaving together insights from neuroscience, clinical medicine, and public health.From the blast overpressure of improvised explosive devices to the subtle shearing of axons invisible on routine scans, the episode traces how TBI alters the brain in ways that reverberate for decades. Listeners will hear how chronic pain, psychiatric comorbidities like PTSD, and long-term risks of dementia, epilepsy, and suicide shape the lives of those who served. The discussion expands beyond the clinic to confront social realities, including the heightened risk of homelessness among veterans with TBI—underscoring the injury's profound impact on both individual and societal health.Grounded in leading scientific research and policy guidelines, this episode outlines the clinical imperatives: screen with rigor, treat pain and psychiatric illness comprehensively, guard against opioid misuse, and plan for the long horizon of neurological and social outcomes. Just as importantly, it highlights the structural responsibilities—ensuring that veterans have access to housing, rehabilitation, and mental health services as essential components of recovery.The Long Shadow: Traumatic Brain Injury in America's Veterans is not simply about injury—it is about responsibility. With science that is precise, medicine that is integrated, and care that honors dignity and resilience, the shadow of TBI of our veterans can be transformed into a pathway of survival and strength.

In this open & honest episode of Walk and Roll Live, we kick off Invisible Disabilities Month with guest Randy Schlecht, a traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivor. Randy opens up about his early life, the event that changed everything, and his long path to recovery. Unlike visible disabilities, Randy's challenges aren't always obvious to others—and that leads to misunderstanding, misjudgment, and stigma. He shares what it's like to live with an invisible disability, how it affects the way people perceive him, and why society needs to broaden its understanding of what disability looks like. This is a raw and enlightening conversation that sheds light on the hidden struggles and strength of those living with TBI and other invisible conditions. Walk and Roll Live

Until only recently, treating Glioblastoma brain cancer with chemotherapy has not been achievable due to the blood brain barrier.  In today's Bindwaves episode, Dr. Michael Canney walks us through how Carthera developed a revolutionary method to deliver therapeutics to the brain utilizing an ultrasound system.  It is well known that the survival rate for Glioblastoma is 1 to 2 years.  Surgery tends to be the primary means to combat this horrible disease.  To improve these odds, an ultrasound implant is placed in the brain after the surgeon removes the tumor.  This implant, or mesh, contains an ultrasound transducer, which when activated during chemo treatments, disrupts the blood brain barrier thus allowing therapeutics to attach to the cancer cells.   Join us as Dr. Canney eloquently discusses the history of this treatment, Phase 1 and Phase 2 results, and their hopes for the Phase 3 trial. Support the showNew episodes drop every other Thursday everywhere you listen to podcasts.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explore how your sense of smell (olfaction), taste, and chemical sensing influence memory, alertness, focus, and even communication between people. I explain how these senses help us detect chemicals in the environment and respond to a variety of environmental cues. I discuss the connection between the olfactory system and cognitive performance, and I provide practical tools to enhance learning, sensory function, and brain health. Additionally, I examine how chemical signals exchanged between people subtly influence emotions, biology, and social bonds. Huberman Lab Essentials episodes are approximately 30 minutes long and focus on key science and protocol takeaways from past Huberman Lab episodes. Essentials are released every Thursday, while full-length episodes continue to air every Monday. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
