POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

In Everyday Trauma, I discuss trauma with a focus on its pervasive nature―how it can happen at any time, through big or small events, and how it often reappears in the form of encoded memory. And when we are reminded of our trauma, reliving that tragic moment copies yet another memory of it in our brain, making it that much more difficult to forget.

Do you have an inner critic? A voice inside your brain telling you you’re not good enough? Most of us do. Many people say their inner critic is a vestige of their childhood. Mine is an older self. What about you?

Our brain is always processing what we are thinking and doing. Every moment of every day. We get to choose what it’s working on.

My first book "Everyday Trauma" talks about ruminations--those nagging thoughts about the past. And how they impact our brain. Bottom line-- they are not good for it. Luckily, I also provide tools that help us stay present in this moment.

We need muscles. Not just because they look good. But because they let us do all the fun things that are good for our brain!! 🧠

There are so many theories about consciousness. But if you consider what the brain already does, you don't need anything more. It just is. And we are.

Use it or lose it. We must challenge our muscles for them to grow. Then our brain uses them to do almost everything. Walk, run, pick up groceries, dance, travel. Don't wait until they disappear!!!

Meditation takes effort. But it doesn't have to be so serious. You can also mediate while walking. Just keep your attention in your feet. Feel each step. Be aware. Stay awake. That's all it takes.

We don't always want to put in the effort to train our brain. Because it's hard. But the more we know about it, the more inspired we are to put in the work!! It's all about effortful learning!

Life passes quickly and we must train our brain to stay present. It is easy to get caught up in all our problems in the past and worries about the future. I'm trying not to lose sight of this moment. The only one that exists.

Travel is a great way to stimulate the brain. You can't help but learn new things about the world. And yourself. It's a story maker!
