  • Episode 72: Unconscious Dynamics

    Join Samuel, Julie, and Sarah as they dive into the fascinating topic of the unconscious. Julie discusses how what we are conscious of is a small amount of what is going on in the mind (the number will surprise you). We dive into a new part of the brain (the thalmus) and discuss its relation with the amygdala. How does this unconscious play a role in our thought processes? How are we allowing the unconscious to open up to us in the moment? What does my unconscious need?

    Learn all that and more!

    Join Samuel, Julie, and Sarah for their group thera-I mean "Trail Mix" episode as they discuss a plethora of real life applications. We talk Sarah's boundaries and Samuel's awareness.

    Was there a boundary that you solidified recently? What was the result?

    Is there something that you’re becoming more aware of? Something to be curious about?

    The beauty of trail mix is that you take what is relevant to you. What is your nugget to take away?

  • Episode 68: Unpack That ”Childhood Disrupted”

    Join Julie as she covers "Childhood Disrupted: How Your Biography Becomes Your Biology, and How You Can Heal" by Donna Jackson Nakazawa. As you can tell, there is a lot to "unpack" here, so this is definitely an episode to check out!

     

    Julie talks about the linkage between our experiences as a child and how that impacts our adulthood. This book is great at linking ACEs and the physical imprint that trauma leaves on our brain. Sit down, enjoy a hot drink, and let Julie unpack "Childhood Disrupted!"
