In this episode of I AM HUMAN, we learn about an innovative technique called Emotional Brain Training (EBT) that can help shut off the stress cascade that leads us to mental and physical health. We also learn about the greater benefits of using EBT to connect with our joy so that we may live more purposeful and spiritual lives. This is a fascinating episode that I hope you will love!
Dr. Laurel Mellin reveals how EBT can transform lives by rewiring neural pathways and fostering resilience. Together, we examine the role of survival circuits in emotional regulation and how EBT can dramatically improve relationships, emotional eating and addiction recovery methods - offering a path to joy and fulfillment. The discussion takes us into EBT's unique ability to navigate through high-stress situations and return to a state of connection, a crucial complement to medical and psychotherapeutic interventions. We explore the importance of adversity in the quest for joy, how personal growth is intertwined with our capacity to face life's challenges, and the pivotal role EBT can play in nurturing self-compassion and resilience.
