Rebalance, Rewire, and Optimize a Dysregulated Nervous System: Metrics + Tech + Protocols - Episode 261

  • Summary

  • In this episode of the Gladden Longevity Podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Gladden and Guy Odishaw discuss the importance of optimizing the nervous system for overall health and well-being. They focus on balancing the autonomic nervous system, which consists of the parasympathetic and sympathetic systems, as well as the role of biofeedback and neurofeedback in optimizing this. They explain how heart rate variability can indicate the balance between these two systems and how factors like stress, lifestyle choices, and traumatic brain injuries can affect this balance. The discussion also highlights the challenges of meditation and the need for guidance and training. A case study is presented, showcasing the use of neurofeedback and biofeedback to treat chronic depression and uncover underlying autonomic nervous system dysfunction. The importance of personalized treatment protocols and the potential for reprogramming and retraining the brain are emphasized.
