The Genius of Empathy: Unlocking Its Power & Protecting Against Over-Giving with Dr. Judith Orloff

In this enlightening episode of The HEAL Podcast, I sit down with neuroscientist, board-certified psychiatrist, health tech entrepreneur, and inventor Dr. David Rabin who has been studying the impact of chronic stress on humans for more than a decade. Having always been fascinated by consciousness and our inherent ability to heal ourselves from injury and illness, Dr. Rabin chose to focus his research on the clinical translation of non-invasive therapies for patients with treatment-resistant illnesses like PTSD and chronic pain. Our discussion dives into an array of important topics, including the transformative potential of psychedelics, namely Ketamine assisted therapy, the spiritual dimensions of healing, and the use of plant medicines for pain management and PTSD treatment. Dr. Rabin also sheds light on the role of non-psychoactive supplements in addiction recovery. With the rise of the use of SSRIs, he also offers an alternative to these common medications and shares a number of effective strategies for overcoming addiction and learning to self-soothe.
 
As the co-founder and Chief Medical Officer of Apollo Neuroscience, Dr. Rabin is at the forefront of groundbreaking wearable technology focused on enhancing energy, focus, and relaxation through innovative touch therapy. This pioneering approach in neuroscience aims to actively improve health by promoting stress resilience, quality sleep, enhanced focus, faster recovery, and more. By tapping into our body's ability to regulate and calm the nervous system, we can exert greater control over our mental and physical well-being.
