Description
Today’s episode is a little bit different. Recently I had the pleasure of being on Dr. Caroline Leaf’s podcast Cleaning Up The Mental Mess. We’ve had Dr. Leaf on the show a few times this year and I really value her expertise as a Neuroscientist. Make sure to check out my two previous interviews with her if you haven’t yet. I really enjoyed our conversation and wanted to share the episode on my show because I think it’ll help those of you who are holding onto traumas and going through struggles.In this episode we discuss why we need to face the past to move forward and how I opened up about being sexually abused, the importance of connecting with our inner child, what happens in the brain when we deconstruct & reconstruct trauma, the importance of therapy and the different ways it can help you, and so much more!For more go to: www.lewishowes.com/1177Dr. Caroline Leaf's other episodes: www.lewishowes.com/1079 www.lewishowes.com/1127 www.lewishowes.com/1128Check out Dr. Caroline Leaf’s website: https://drleaf.com/Read her new book: Cleaning Up Your Mental MessThe Wim Hof Experience: Mindset Training, Power Breathing, and Brotherhood: https://link.chtbl.com/910-podA Scientific Guide to Living Longer, Feeling Happier & Eating Healthier with Dr. Rhonda Patrick: https://link.chtbl.com/967-podThe Science of Sleep for Ultimate Success with Shawn Stevenson: https://link.chtbl.com/896-pod
