Ep. 54 - Banish the Bully in Your Brain: Dr. Betsy Holmberg on How to Silence the Unkind Mind


Listen Later

Moms, don’t believe everything you think!
Neuroscience proves that the critical voice in your head, or that of your child, is just a default mode-and knowing this can be life changing.
Our guest today is psychologist Dr. Betsy Holmberg, author of Unkind Mind, who teaches us how to flip the switch on negative self talk.
Dr. Betsy builds up our superpower to recognize this nagging voice and shut it up:

*  understand why we’re so hard on ourselves and then catch ourselves when we fall into a judgy mode

* learn the science behind two parts of our brain: the Default Mode Network (DMN) and the Central Executive Network (CEN)

* the personal struggles that inspired Dr. Betsy to uncover the research and change the course of her own life

* our power to explain these strategies to our kids and give them tools to quiet their own inner critic

* how to stop ruminating in its tracks, allowing for clearer decision-making and better sleep
