Rehabilitating Our Neuroplasticity with Dr. Austin Perlmutter

In this episode Danielle sits down solo with Dr. Austin Perlmutter, who specializes in what he calls the “science of stuck.” His research and work centers around the thesis that modern culture is rewiring our brains and damaging our health in the name of profit, and his New York Times best-selling book, Brain Wash, offers a plan of resistance against this pervasive numbing championed by our society. Austin suggests that to rehabilitate our neuroplasticity—a.k.a., our brain's ability to shift its response to our environment—we need to combat the isolation of our digital age by seeking out both more human connection, and time immersed in Nature. He believes that through reconnecting with our community and ourselves, we can reattune our consciousness and ability to sit on the driver’s seat of our own health. Hosted on Acast.
