The Resilience of the Mind, feat. Dr. Caroline Leaf [S05-047]

 


This week we’re continuing our series on feeding the brain.  There’s an ample amount of research about the importance of tapping into the mind-body connection, or tuning into our emotional and mental states, to rewire our neuropathways and relieve anxiety, depression, and intrusive thoughts. Dr. Caroline Leaf joins me for a fascinating conversation about “cleaning up the mental mess” and taking back control over your thoughts and life. 

In today’s episode, Dr. Leaf:

  • explains the difference between the “mind” and the “brain”

  • discusses how to use the conscious mind to connect with your nonconscious mind

  • walks us through her neurocycle program to detox and rebuild the brain

Dr. Caroline Leaf is a communication pathologist and cognitive neuroscientist with a Masters and Ph.D. in Communication Pathology and a BSc Logopaedics from the University of Cape Town and the University of Pretoria in South Africa, specializing in cognitive and metacognitive neuropsychology.
