A re-release of my first interview on the podcast back in 2021.

Dr James H Fallon wrote the book The Psychopath Inside where he tracks his story on how he found out he was a "borderline psychopath." We cover that story and a whole lot of other topics in this packed episode.

This therapy protocol was adapted from and expands Forrest Knutson's ‘Time Line Therapy Walkthrough’ (find it here)

I also integrated other works into this protocol, namely, aspects you can find in Deb Dana's The Polyvagal Theory in Therapy, Dr Joe Dispenza's You Are the Placebo, Dr Norman Doidge's The Brain’s Way of Healing and Dr Richard Schwartz's Internal Family Systems Therapy

This Timeline Therapy protocol guides you through the process of overcoming stressful events and memories using your imagination. Therapies and exercises like this help relax your nervous system while tapping into other parts of the brain, namely the brain’s visualisation networks, to promote neuroplasticity—your brain’s ability to change and grow.

Recorded by psychotherapist Emil Barna.

This episode - one of my favourites! - first aired in 2021. I thought it deserved a bump not just because of the guest (Dr Porges is an amazing researcher and visionary) but because more people need to know about how their nervous system is impacted by stress, especially after COVID.

Dr Stephen Porges discusses Polyvagal Theory, stress and anxiety, PTSD and COVID-19, and how to heal.

You can find out more about Dr. Porges on his websites https://www.stephenporges.com/ and https://www.polyvagalinstitute.org/

This is a 12-minute 'Safe Place' visualisation meditation protocol that helps enhance the brain's learning process, reduces daytime fatigue, and helps improve focus. This exercise can be done before bed to relax your nervous system or any other time during the day to help you reconnect with the present moment. Exercises like this have been found to promote neuroplasticity—your brain's ability to change and grow.

"Brain scans show us that generally many of the same neurons that fire when we perceive something in the external world also fire when we first remember that object or experience. In the brain, imagining an act and doing it are not as different as they may seem ... visualizing, remembering, or imagining pleasant experiences activates many of the same sensory, motor, emotional, and cognitive circuits that fired during the "real" experience." Norman Doidge, The Brain's Way of Healing.
