In this episode, I’m back with Dr. Mel Hopper Koppelman, discussing what she believes is one of the most important and overlooked areas in health—how brain development in childhood might be at the root of the health problems you’re experiencing as an adult.
You’ll likely have some ‘aha!’ moments (maybe big ones) while listening to the podcast.
In this podcast, Dr. Mel and I discuss:
The fascinating fact that we actually have 2 brains…and how brain imbalances impact your immune system and overall health
How evolution led to our specialized, complex brain design and the main purposes it serves
Myths debunked: The misunderstood idea that the left brain controls math and logic and the right brain controls creativity, and whether it’s true that we only use 10% of our brain
The overlooked brain imbalance called “functional disconnection” and why this might be at the root of health problems such as autism, ADHD, gut dysfunction, autoimmunity, dyslexia, depression, anxiety, or even chronic infections
The surprisingly easy-to-test primitive reflexes (that start in the womb!) and how they’re connected to chronic disease
Could you have an immature brain stem? Dr. Mel tells us the symptoms that let you know AND how to address this issue
Why some popular health solutions might actually make you worse based on the specific brain imbalance you’re experiencing
How brain imbalance can lead to changes in blood tests, such as low white blood cell count
Practical ways you can assess if you have an imbalanced brain, accounting for your particular skills, health history, and childhood experiences
The important distinction between pathologizing neurodiversity vs. helping those who wish to improve their brain’s functionality in certain areas
The liberating knowledge that our brains are malleable and trainable, and we can heal even longstanding brain-related issues!
