Brilliant and simple
This book title is dangerous in the wrong hands. I sustained a concussion around the same time the author of this book was on an NPR interview that my caregiver mother heard. My mother clearly did not understand concussion and turned a normal concussion recovery into a hellish suicidal experience because she refused to understand my boundaries and limitations because the author said to run to the danger. I ended up experiencing hellish nights shaking, shivering in pain that led to inability to get any sleep for 3 days that led to suicidal thoughts. I have never been suicidal in my life. I am not suicidal now. Don't expect to ever have suicidal thoughts again. Concussion does something to the brain and if not treated properly could lead to suicidal thoughts....concussion combined with no sleep for 3 days leads to crazy thoughts! I could go on and on about the hell I went through because my mom heard some reckless interview about running to danger on the radio. There is another girl named Julie on UA-cam who shares info about how to use a 2 step process to recover from concussions. You expose yourself to triggers until you experience two symptoms and then you retreat from triggers and rest and then repeat the process. Listen to Julie on UA-cam not this book. I have never read this book and have no desire to read this book because the title alone is reckless and dangerous in the hands of caregivers who don't understand concussion. Because of this book my mother unknowingly endangered my life by following the mantra run to danger. I was put in situations that compromised my life, my health and recovery. My sister found the Julie UA-cam videos and this is what literally saved my life. My sister and Julie saved my life. Recovery from concussion is very difficult especially if your primary caregiver doesn't understand what is going on and thinks "run to danger" is the answer. It is not!
Yes yes I've been doing this and it works. I'm trying to drive abit tricky because it's in traffic but small steps. And accepting the anxiety not fighting it. Then rewarding myself for small wins thankyou Ben. Also my post stroke burning doing the same thing it's going away
Really awesome and can say after doing a neuroplasticity course , what I'm doing now to just 3 weeks ago is absolutely insane -it takes work and commitment and consistency at the moment, but it is SOOO much better than the life I was living just 3 weeks ago, it's actually incomparable 🌞🏖 this stuff reallly can work 😀
That's great to hear Megan. Repetition and small wins are key!
I have been on all of your videos today as I would love to be able to use my life experiences to help someone else, once I get them under control
This is incredible. I have BPD and PTSD. Awesome
This is an amazing book. I got it on audible after you recommended it on Raelens channel and the message had resonated with my life and trauma so much.
I also recently got a concussion on top of my pots/cfs and its been a struggle these last few months but Sarah Polleys story in the book and others experiences with UPMC and Micky Collins is giving my courage to face it head on. Thank you so much for sharing it!
Hey Ben, I think you were in my Living DNRS group in 2020! Glad to see you’re doing better and doing great work! Just discovered your videos and enjoying them - thanks!

Would fatigue fall under this type of exposure therapy? That is to say, would one run toward fatigue in some cases?
Pacing has been such a conundrum for me as I try to gauge how much to venture into activity.
I'm really not sure if I keep slipping into extreme fatigue due to energy reserves being too low for what I'm doing - or - it's just my limbic being overly sensitive/cautious - or - I'm simply going through a phase adjustment each time. 🙄
The book sounds interesting.
I found daily stretching and gentle yoga helped me, I would start out by just lying on my exercise mat. Then gentle yoga stretches. That led to more yoga.
There were a lot of reviews on Amazon said they couldn’t finish it… and it sounds kind of intense and potentially triggering. Anybody here who had PTSD have an opinion the book?? Thanks.
Looking for excuse?
Brain retraining is a top-down approach right? People say you have to do a bottom-up approach as well (i.e. address and resolve the original traumas that caused the disease in the first place), to prevent relapse?
Otherwise you're vulnerable to keep getting sick again when major life stressors come up?
Bottom-up would be working via nervous system first. Modalities such as somatic experiencing, yoga, qi gong, etc. These will still make changes to the limbic system, but from a bottom-up approach.
Has anyone heard of someone unable to drive at higher speeds with the main roads, or not able to do dense traffic or traffic lights fir fear of going lightheaded and panicking? I have been like this since being ill in 2001 with coeliac disease, which made me faint with low iron.
Hi from Germany!! Do you have at the Moment people with severe lyme in your Programm!??? I cant treat 😢and i am bedridden with horrible symptoms seven years now
@Kirsten, Ben himself had neurological Lyme disease, and got better with the techniques that he teaches in his class! I hope you are doing better! 😊
I am enjoying your content and the interviews you have done with others. I am making a point not to subscribe or end subscriptions to channels with thumbnails of wide-eyed, mouths open possibly pointing to something. I think they are clickbaity gimmicky and are designed to heighten arousal. Exactly what people trying to lower stress need. I watched you without this stuff but now with this and others, I am a bit turned off. Wish you well and thank you but I'm going to stick with people who look professional and don't feel the need to do this, Huberman etc.
Thanks for this feedback. As a fairly new youtuber, I find this super helpful and insightful.
Absolutely welcome. I really like what you and others are contributing to this understanding and am grateful to be living in a time when this is available. I generally focus on what I like not what bothers me but this tactic is being used so much...and you don't need it really:) Best wishes.@@re_origin
