Brain Retraining & Chronic Illness: Rewiring the Nervous System to Heal
Renowned neuroplasticity expert Ashok Gupta joins Laurie Hammer to explain how brain retraining calms the nervous system, reduces inflammation, and supports recovery from chronic illness, long COVID, pain, and anxiety.
In this episode of Take Back My Brain, Laurie Hammer speaks with former RN turned holistic wellness coach Shan Wright about burnout, perfectionism, and reclaiming peace. Shan shares her journey through postpartum anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and the realization that changing circumstances doesn’t heal internal stress patterns.
The conversation explores the stress-performance curve, signs of emotional dysregulation, and how faith, values, and nervous system support restore safety and clarity. Practical steps—including brain dumps, focusing on “the one thing,” and step-by-step recovery—offer a roadmap for healing without striving.
Curious about what kind of stress might be driving your cravings? Take Laurie Hammer’s free Craving Crusher Quiz—it only takes 2 minutes and offers personalized insights to help you understand your body’s signals and support your healing journey.
