E199 - Dr. Caroline Leaf: How to Stop Your Brain From Holding You Back

Описание

Dr. Caroline Leaf is a cognitive neuroscientist and bestselling author who has spent over 40 years studying the relationship between the mind and the brain. At a time when neuroplasticity was still emerging as a field, she was already building clinical tools to help patients recover from brain injuries, trauma, and conditions that conventional medicine had written off as permanent. In this conversation, we go deep into a distinction that changes everything: the mind is not the brain, and once you understand that, you stop being a victim of your own biology.What We Dive Into:1. The brain does not generate thoughts. It responds to the mind. Everything you think, feel, and choose originates in the mind and then gets coded into the brain and body. 2. Depression, anxiety, and other mental health labels are not diseases you have. They are signals pointing to an underlying thought that needs to be found and restructured. 3. You cannot change what happened, but you can change the impact it has on your present and future. Through a process of deconstructing and reconstructing toxic thought networks, the grip of the past loosens. Know Thyself, but not by yourself. A guided space to return home to yourself.https://www.knowthyselfcollective.com✨THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS:https://www.bioptimizers.com/knowthyselfUse code KNOWTHYSELF to save 15% at checkout___________00:00 Intro03:11 The Difference Between Mind and Brain07:17 Why the Brain-Is-Boss Model Gets It Wrong12:25 Consciousness Beyond the Physical Body14:25 Quantum Physics, Microtubules, and the Mind21:24 Science and Spirituality Converging23:41 Early Research: Neuroplasticity and Traumatic Brain Injury28:50 Mind-Driven Change: Telomeres and Cellular Health31:56 Working in South Africa: Healing Through Mental Frameworks34:31 The Origin of the Neurocycle40:13 The Non-Conscious, Subconscious, and Conscious Mind49:35 How Thoughts and Memories Build Into the Brain and Body51:59 The Five Steps of the Neurocycle57:01 Step One: Gather Awareness01:00:24 Step Two: Reflect01:02:10
