Dr. Caroline Leaf is a communication pathologist and cognitive neuroscientist with a Masters and Ph.D. in Communication Pathology and a BSc Logopaedics, specializing in cognitive and metacognitive neuropsychology. Since the early 1980s, she has researched the mind-brain connection, the nature of mental health, and the formation of memory. She was one of the first in her field to study how the brain can change (neuroplasticity) with directed mind input.
During her years in clinical practice and her work with thousands of underprivileged teachers and students in her home country of South Africa and in the USA, she developed her theory (called the Geodesic Information Processing Theory) of how we think, build memory, and learn into tools and processes that have transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands of individuals with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), learning disabilities (ADD, ADHD), autism, dementia and mental ill-health issues like anxiety and depression. She has helped hundreds of thousands of students and adults learn how to use their minds to detox and grow their brains to succeed in every area of their lives, including school, university, and the workplace.
Dr. Leaf is also the bestselling author of Switch on Your Brain, Think Learn Succeed, Think and Eat Yourself Smart, and many more. works She teaches at academic, medical, and neuroscience conferences, churches, and to various audiences around the world. Dr. Leaf is also involved in the global ECHO movement, which trains physicians worldwide on the mind-brain-body connection, mental health, and how to avoid physician burnout.
Dr. Leaf is currently conducting clinical trials using the 5-step program she developed while in private practice to further demonstrate the effectiveness of mind-directed techniques to help relieve mental ill-health problems such as anxiety, depression, and intrusive thoughts. The primary aim of these trials is to make mental health care more affordable, applicable, and accessible worldwide, and to reduce the stigma around mental health. It was truly an honor to have her on The School of Greatness podcast!

This is so timely. I am recovering from a head injury and I am so grateful that I did not listen to the treating doctors and instead followed my instincts. I am so much better for it and understand why from listening to this broadcast. Bless you and thank you.
I had a brain trauma in 2016, I retrained my brain to put a sentence together ✌️ took 11 months to teach my brain to walk without a stick, x I'm very proud of what I achieved x
As you should be! God bless you!
God bless you! You did something through determination and choice. Someone else may never have walked again. Love to you💕
Wow that is amazing
That's fantastic!

Imagine how many people would be healed if we could create the atmosphere of a "loving supportive environment" everywhere.
Who cares about most humans? I am for killing 90% of humans. The rest would be allowed to live in a loving environment, yes

its not that simple. people who love you can often give you horrible advice and help you with things you dont even need help with and they can do more harm than good. the love part i dig... the supportive part is onlu partially beneficial. depends what kind of support
As a therapist, I appreciate this because I've had some colleagues recommend medication to someone that is homeless and depressed and I'm like "bruh, being homeless is depressing AF. Maybe we should help them find housing as a first step..." And I also love the message that it's about managing negative emotions not never having them.

I just have to comment that this podcast totally changed my life I come from parental abuse to a spouse abuse that took me 13 years to get out of and it just reassures me and helps my mind quiet itself knowing there’s a solution.
I ordered the book the first time I listen to this podcast and I now have it in hand and I’m excited to move forward with the rest of my life being more positive towards others I am now 66 years old so it is nice to know we’re always healing ourselves.

Very great full for this message This is real hope. Oh. thank you Becky you ROCK
You are awesome. Hugs 😊
I read the book at 67... we do have the power to change our minds 🌟🦋
This interview totally intrigued me. I listening to it for the 2nd time. Thank you for doing this was such a remarkable lady to interview, genius. Thank you Lewis!!!
Remember, no amount of dwelling can change the past. No amount of anxiety can change the future.
I hear ya, but anxiety can certainly change the future by extremely affecting, limiting, and strengthening patterns that lead to many potential conditions.
anxiety is a useful tool, its a survival mechanism, everything in moderation
That's profoundly true.
never mind the past, what you do NOW can change the future greatly
@@Kevin291971 sometimes it takes that long to discover the REASON for your anxiety. i've suffered from anxiety for many yrs, was a therapist for many yrs and have actually found answers for my own issues after many yrs.
Language is so important. In the English language, we say 'I AM depressed'. The sentence is structured to personally identify as depression. It is who we are. But, in the Irish language, for example, translated they say 'I have a depression ON me'. It separates the person from the depression and makes it a temporary and removable thing/object. It's a good way to explore how we identify and process something.

This message has saved my son in law’s life. He is free from all medication, wen cold turkey and suffered terribly, but he made it. He now believes in himself, he is enough, and deserves a better life. Thank you. You saved a life🙏🏻
I am so happy for you "son in law" keep being happy and positive I totally understand what the cold turkey is like it's worse than living death I tried it once and lost 3 stone in 9 days I'm not over weight to begin with I didn't sleep it was awful. I had thrown the tablets away so I couldn't even take one to feel normal I told my doc and he wrote me a prescription and told me to do it slowly but I've frightened myself with just stopping so I'm trying again but well done you 👏👏👏🍀🙌🙌
I'm so happy for you & your son-in-law. Blessings & Love to you both. Keep at it.
I believe in myself fine- it's humanity that is failing

Wow, I am blown away by her message and the work she has done. I used to have bad depression and battled it and went to south america to take ayahuasca and san pedro and it helped tremendously. Around that time I realized that I was not "ill" or "crazy", but that the depression and anxiety were messengers about my life. Once I met likeminded people that were having the same problems, because they didn't seem to fit in, I realized these were just symptoms for underlying problems. That view alone can help so much.
Which place did you go yobbybthe way? I used to live in Peru 🇵🇪. I've been thinkninh about going back there or to Costa Rica to do the same thing you've described.

What was the underlying problem?
When doctor told me I had Cancer in November I was filled with Fear. I have been thru surgery and a month long infection. I am no longer afraid
Feel peace and hope. Next month starting radiation. Will keep hope
Hi carol , I had stage 3 ovarian and secondary womb cancer 26 years ago , still here and very fit for 76 ,xxxxxx
The doctor told me I was going to die of cancer in 2011, in 2012 I stopped breathing. Christ saved me.
I don't recall off hand which bacteria in probiotics ( Bio-K +) brand protects the intestinal lining from radiation but it is helpful and there are scientific articles supporting its use.. I wont go into Rick Simpson's high THC oil for curing cancer, but be aware that even CBD works synergistically along with radiation therapy. I'm talking from personal experience and would explore both before your sessions begin.
Good Luck!

This is what I needed. My body was in full blown anxiety mode and stress for about three weeks straight. A week after it started my hands were numb and my feet were tingling. Everyone told me I was inflamed and weren’t sure why. I had brain mri back mri. They gave me antipsychotics, celebrex, gabapentin and nothing helped. I finally told my self look enough we are changing our thinking and slowly all my symptoms are going away.
Glad this was helpful for you🧡
How are u now
I'm so glad you're journey is on a better path now. I literally was in my bed till 6pm and had to keep thinking over and over "you're ok, you're in YOUR bed, you're safe, everyone is fine, nothing is wrong".
I didn't want to take care of myself, was exhausted and anxious. But I listened to this and I know what to do now. It's scary cause the daylight bothers me.
Your post inspired me to untangle the mess I've made by giving up! Thank you..

This is really inspiring 🧡

My grandparents survived through WW1 and WW2 and the Great Depression. They were the most well balanced people you could ever meet.
mine too! and I have lived through a lot already....not sure if I will be able to cope with all the these new measurements are causing
I can do all things thru Christ who strengthens me .
it's funny how people who survived on crumbs were the most stable people while we having everything at our fingertips are falling apart at the seams.
@@reflectingqueen Those with serious world influence are meaning to repeat the actions of those 2 eras, with the intent of "culling the herd" because they are well aware of the damage isolation, fear, despair etc does to the human...the key is...to remember...however long "they" push their agenda...it always fails in the end...and what this brilliant neuroscientist is saying is utter truth. This show MUST be shared. It is medical gold.
They read the true words of God, not influenced by so many different teachings and doctrines.
Love healed me. People cared about me enough to give me everything I needed to love myself again. Love yourself and know you are so loved.

Yes she's brilliant
I love this interview! At 22 years old, I became allergic to all anti-depressants. I thought I would die at first. But over the years, I have worked to protect my mental health. I'm 53 years old feeling so fortunate to have found this. I have always looked for things like this, as well as subliminal tunes to heal. I've been through addiction and trauma. I have worked through so much of this! Thank you for this awesome information!

Thank you. I am 🙌 (from my thoughts to God's ears) so it be. Beautiful message 👍
Yes, In my family I’ll be the one
Every one of us, especially you, will break all the chains that have kept us from our wealth.
Same comment in all videos from same Channel is Actually Business.
This needs to be a mandatory part of our education system, right along with reading, writing, math etc.
Possibilities are Endless!!
Yes, and we can save many from even getting into depression.
Absolutely that would be the first step in the right direction. Should also be on mainstream TV instead of the crap fed to people on the Good Morning shows.
Sadly, that is why it will never be part of mainstream education. The psycho-therapists would prevent anything that would interfere with their business of getting their hands on people with all kinds of mental issues. Learning that you can heal your own brain? No, the psycho-therapists need sick people to make money, and they need them to stay sick to keep Big Pharma going with all their psycho-tropic drugs, and the mental hospitals with their doctors experimenting on you, drugging you and electroshocking you. Learn from her while you can-she's offering it for free!
Sounds good. The school system is messing up many kids.

"We need to stop telling people they are brain damaged when they are just being normal human beings." Whew! This the one right here! Absolutely loved this, great inspiration
I.so.agree!!!
yessss!!!!!
I appreciate her perspectives on: as a society pathologize the things of the human condition, market pharmaceuticals, and therapy programs and counseling that gets you nowhere, as money making schemes. Her approach doesn't make money so Big Pharma doesn't like this as they support the Apartheid system of labels and diagnostics.
That's modern medicine which makes you believe you're not normal when in truth you simply react to the facts and truth around. Who's normal really?
Is
Someone who's had a life long battle with neurological issues from epilepsy, anxiety, to depression. I might have once disagreed with Caroline on her thoughts of depression, but as someone who's went to the brink of it through 5-6 miserable years, she's right. Depression did feel like a "illness." It was something that I couldn't shake off. A mixture of nutrition and mental awareness got me through (Kefir, fermented foods, methylated folate, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, upped protein, and a general multivitamin.) Now as someone who's no longer EXPERIENCING those symptoms, things became clear on what it was in retrospect. I had to do research, explore life, and go through years of therapy.
Practice mindfulness. Pay attention to your nutrition. Compare what you're not doing and objectively what a human body needs to be healthy, fill those nutritional and activity gaps. Your body needs exercise, nature, sunlight, human interaction, even when your mind doesn't feel like it. Often what your mind wants WILL BE at odds with what your body needs, sometimes even with reality itself if you don't keep yourself in check. Those feelings of
"I have no energy..." "My body hurts too much to leave bed." "No one understands why I CAN'T do it! It hurts too much/I feel sick/I feel too sad/my body hurts/there's no where to walk/I'm afraid of leaving my house/I'm afraid of socializing/society is too cruel to interact with" "Exercising sucks. I don't want to be hot/sweaty/uncomfortable" (although some of them were true) were excuses.
Baby steps. Find a way where you CAN do it. Start with the laziest, easiest, healthiest solutions, and build your habits off of that. Nutrition is REALLY REALLY important. Food effects your mood. If you follow any advice AT LEAST start with your vitamin levels. Those can raise your energy levels and mood just enough to get your foot in the door (to do the more difficult stuff like take a walk or go for a hike.)
If you're in the thick of your depression, and you feel like there's no way out, there is. Start your personal journey. Clean up your life. Don't allow society to box you in. Grow yourself. The sunk-cost fallacy will ruin your life. We're allowed to change ourselves on a whim. Swap paths. Swap degrees. Social circles and careers. Free yourself.
Truly excellent suggestions. As a Christian, I know there are many negative voices to destroy us. First, I gotta ARGUE with those thoughts which I believe AREN'T mine, SENT to prohibit growth.
Congratulations for success, regardless how much.
I love you too, I cry with pride and love mostly and when it was anything more than frustration when I denied my facets , I now accept all of me. I am really good. and thank you for the advice. there is an explanation for everything soon.

I really like your comment! So true
Thanks man. This really helped.
"I'm not depression" ❤️. Absolutely love her approach, stuffing patients with pills isn't always the answer, as a matter of fact, Paleo diet and exercise has helped me so much more with keeping my bipolar disorder in check like no prescription carbonated lithium pill ever did. Your channel is an entire universe of free access to greatness indeed, thank you very much for the wholesome work you put into it!
🤗👍
How did you withdraw from Lithium?
@@jillwilson883 just quit cold turkey, it never mitigated my depression anyway, it only took away the very few days of mania when I actually have the energy to get productive and take care of important things I usually procrastinate on... When I follow my Paleo right, exercise and get good sleep I can go for long periods of time feeling generally good, I usually notice changes in my mood when I'm not doing these things properly and on top of that drinking alcohol, alcohol is a huge no no to bipolar disorder.
@@blooming_Lotus1493 Quitting cold turkey has not worked well for me. I did it on my own and ended up manic, hospitalized & now on more meds than I've ever been on. With the aid of a doctor, I became manic, hospitalized & medicated. I have a new doc that has said he would work with me, but if I became manic he would have to hospitalize me and put me back on meds. I now know that mania for some w/withdrawal is a symptom of your brain adjusting to not having the meds. It all seems complicated. I'm believing that God will make a way. My day to day on meds is not a good experience @ all.
@@jillwilson5326 maybe yours is a more severe case, my maniac episodes aren't dangerous for my overall wellbeing, like engaging in reckless behavior such as drinking and driving or other activities that could cause major damage to myself, all I get is a hit of dopamine which increase my motivation to get more productive, NGL, sometimes I can get obsessed with learning about a new subject, often learning strategies to cope with the deficient parts of my life for example, and getting hiper focused on learning about it, but that's about it, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Now, there are people with the same condition whom experience maniac episodes differently, often doing things they'll potentially regret shortly after, in those cases unfortunately they can't stop medication for their own safety, however, I've met many people with the same condition that did pretty good with the same copying mechanisms I've adopted, it all boils down to how you experience your maniac episodes and how long have you been taking your meds and which meds you were taking, lithium is a mood stabilizer not necessarily an antipsychotic, now if besides lithium you've been prescript antipsychotic meds as well then I'd take it easy, start doing the same things I mentioned above like diet, sleep and so on while slowly decreasing the doses of your meds every other month, if you've been on meds for two years or longer for example, it'll take at least a year to go totally off the meds safely by the decreasing doses process, but it's still worth trying. I wish you good luck!
I stopped talking for three years once. It was something that happened. I didn't plan on this, but I won't spend time on the how or why of it right now but want to share what happened instead.
At first, I noticed how many thoughts I had, and how much my mind ruminated.
Over time the thoughts played themselves out and stopped altogether until one day when my daughter told, her brother that she was going to stop talking to mom because her only response is an occasional grunt.
This is what made me come out of silence but soon realized I'd forgotten language.
I struggled to put sentences together. The most amazing part of this experience was that I became very psychic, and knew things I shouldn't know. There are lots of examples I could share, but here's a quick one.
My daughter and I were in the yard. I looked at her while pointing at a huge tree. I pulled her back about a yard. I knew the tree was going to fall. We stepped back a few feet and the tree fell with its tip landing right in front of our feet. Overall, this was a positive life-changing experience that changed my life forever. I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on how the brain responds to long term silence.
What I love about Lewis Howes is his ability to Listen.
The has got to be the most interesting podcast I have ever listened to. Does anyone else feel this way?
Yes! I've been listening to her for years and I read her books.
Yes
I got more out of the latest rick and morty episode. Sorry.
Absolutely. And she has such beautiful hands to look at too while she talks.
@@melvern946 I salute you, fellow pervert.
Her info is life changing, so thank you. On a side note it is so refreshing to see someone doing something they love while helping people. Great show ☺
Interesting video and thanks for the info to both Lewis and Caroline. I know what she says could help some people, HOWEVER the ULTIMATE HEALER is Jesus! Watch the movie "Unbroken: Path to Redemption". This is part two of the original "Unbroken" by Angelina Jolie which is the autobiography of Louis Zamperini. He's not the only one who has been saved after being through hell and getting PTSD. But you must be open minded, have faith and do what is required, getting into a spiritual relationship with your loving Heavenly Father. He can give you peace joy happiness etc. like nothing else on earth can and you will be fulfilled. He can give you the fulfillment nothing else on earth can give which we try to find it in but can't because God is the missing piece to the question of who we really are. God bless!
Thanks so much . I wrote in my journal today . “Thanks universe to put me this podcast today” . After years of abuse from my mothers , and ex boyfriend . I realized that all my negatives thoughts affect my lifestyle, my present , future , family and friends . I start to take care of my mind to change complete my life . Blessed
She put me in tears -- friends who are doctors in neuro telling me I need medicine and one dose put me in the ER, and it just numbs me. It doesn't HEAL me. So many things doctors aren't helping with, just slapping bandaids with medicines instead of looking for the root causes and working on rewiring your brain. The mind is a POWERFUL thing. Thank you, doctor, I just ordered your books to study and use daily and I couldn't be more excited!! Finally a true DOCTOR who cares about helping her patients to HEAL.
Jenni I am so sorry you are going through this and you are so right. You need support to get to the root of what's causing your symptoms. If you are looking for a supportive and inspiring community of women on similar journey's let me know. You don't have to feel along
Wishing you all the healing you need, you brave soul.
The mind is a very powerful tool.

Its helped me overnight. I'm not kidding. [ This podcast] You can only go 3 weeks without food, 3 days without water,3 minutes without oxygen but not even 3 minutes without thinking. That means your mind is more potent than anything else. More potent than depression. more powerful than a panic attack, more vigorous than anxiety. It can overpower all.
it’s not YOUR depression anxiety and panic attack it’s not apart of you ❤️
@@Pa95423 Thank you for this comment!!! It's actually true. Maybe I should change my views on depression, anxiety, and panic.... This comment helps so much! ❤️ Thanks again ❤️
I should have been in the study. When I was baby my head went through a window shield. They told me that I was never going to walk and talk again. I was 13 months old I’m now 46 and I’ve been walking and taking ever since. Thanks to my praying family and parents.
I was diagnosed as bi-polar 40 years ago. I realize it was my thoughts about what I went through that was causing it. Took medication for all those years and didn’t even need it. It never helped but couldn’t get my doc to help me stop it. Finally weaned myself off it. I’m in a very good frame of mind now and I believe Jesus was the help I needed.
Beautiful testimony ..so needed in this day and age

My son has just been diagnosed with it too, he just turned 18. Am trying to get him to start thinking differently and positively and not be on mede coz the med seem to just numb things.
And now you believe in an invisible man, awesome! 👍
I feel moved to say halfway through this three course through the end actually When he expresses facing himself and talking about his trauma the body language in the feedback emotionally from this woman giving him that space after all the knowledge she just gave to us for free is a perfect combination of an individual who has done the hard work combined with very high intelligence self-awareness and deep empathy in my opinion a true healer that is what she is
Dr. Leaf is awesome and deep alot of people can't grasp the concepts she tries to break down in layman's terms. She's a genius and very committed to people's mind health and neurological management of response!
I've listened to several of her lectures and interviews on TBN and she's so progressive because of her experience.
Thankyou for having her on your youtube
Dr. Leaf is looking pretty good for a 58 years old! She definitely knows what she’s talking about!
I was just thinking that...amazing!
I absolutely agree! She is very sharp as well!
Age shows on ur hand the most. And even her hands looks like she is 20 . That's unbelievable!
I suspect she's had some 'work' done--- But her skin looks flawless and she does look fabulous
She looks beautiful and so young as well as sharp
The amount of suffering chronic stress can cause is severely underestimated by most
Exactly
Well said🙏🏽 And perhaps it is being used as a form of control by a powerful minority in these times. Isolation is a form of torture. If we can free our minds we can transcend. Perhaps we have much to learn from the great freedom fighters of the past. One love 💗
So right
Unless you are the one experiencing it...
I can say now and stand by this is I have a gift I can create anything I think of -words like disease mentally ill cause I realized I create it
This woman has it all. Brains, beauty, family and is aging like fine's wine!

Besides other things you mention which has become commonplace now with access to internet & many of such procedures becoming known to common public, additionally IV nutritional therapies have sprung everywhere during the PLANdemic times.

We are often programmed by society to be in a perpetual state of stress. Understand you aren’t your emotions and detach from them🙌🏽
How do u detach from.your emotions. You are your emotions
@@EA-xd1jr we are not our emotions. We experience them, we choose to react to external circumstances through our perspectives that are ever changing. Most of our emotions have to do with our subconscious thoughts that have been programmed through our life experiences. You have to consciously choose your perspectives and rewrite your perspectives of past experience to control your emotions.
@@EA-xd1jr to me, I don't want to detach from my emotions, they guide me. If I detached from them, I'd be numb, like a rock surely?
I will happily detach myself from my thoughts...
My brain: NOPE I STILL HAVE CONTROL OVER THAT TOO....
@@Froglet1968 detaching does not mean not feeling and allowing them to guide you. It means not identifying them as who you are as a person. Like someone saying they are an angry person. That's identifying. That's not who you are, and if it is the dominant emotion, that means there is suppressed trauma that needs to be dealt with.
I love this video because I always felt we can heal ourselves but wasn't sure how to do it. Had a lot of trauma as a child but I became a caring loving person for others. I'm not rich in money but my will to want to learn more is getting me where I want to be and that to me is more important than money.. I love this lady and her knowledge and putting this info out here for us people who need it. Thanks, blessings to y'all !

Thanks. I liked that🌻
@@Khh444 You're welcome, me too! We gain so much power when we realise we have control over our minds to make our own choices in life, even on an emotional level.
@@ruthhorowitz7522 I suppose the choice in that situation would be to seek help and better your situation to the best of your ability.
@@ruthhorowitz7522 Respect for investing that effort in yourself that's amazing, a lot of people don't even try. I'm far from a qualified therapist so there's only so much I can say, but have you tried inner child work and dived into the other subconscious things in therapy like past trauma and limiting beliefs?
@@ruthhorowitz7522 I really wish I could help more but as I said I'm really not qualified to. I truly believe there's always more we can do though. There are so many things out there to try we almost have an unlimited supply of avenues to explore, even if it doesn't fix everything it can always be better than it is. 'The Power of now' is an awesome book that might be worth checking out and there's a guy on UA-cam called Julienhimself who's also great. Just pitching out things that could be of some use. I also found this article just now maybe it will help www.everydayhealth.com/columns/therese-borchard-sanity-break/things-consider-when-your-depression-not-getting-better/

You're welcome,thank you for being here 🧡
Interesting video and thanks for the info to both Lewis and Caroline. I know what she says could help some people, HOWEVER the ULTIMATE HEALER is Jesus! Watch the movie "Unbroken: Path to Redemption". This is part two of the original "Unbroken" by Angelina Jolie which is the autobiography of Louis Zamperini. He's not the only one who has been saved after being through hell and getting PTSD. But you must be open minded, have faith and do what is required, getting into a spiritual relationship with your loving Heavenly Father. He can give you peace joy happiness etc. like nothing else on earth can and you will be fulfilled. He can give you the fulfillment nothing else on earth can give which we try to find it in but can't because God is the missing piece to the question of who we really are. God bless!
I have been on various medications for "bi-polar disorder" for 16 years. Through this podcast and Dr. Despenza I have learned so much. I had an episode this past year, was hospitalized and I am on 3 different drugs. I know that they have and are altering my brain. I feel horrible everyday, but are hard pressed to find a medical professional that will help me safely withdraw from the neurotoxins that I ingest daily. I feel until I'm free of the drugs neuroscience will not help. I have abruptly stopped in the past and it was disastrous. With the aid of a doctor I tried to withdraw but he withdraw too much too soon, another disaster. I want desperately to get my life back. I hope that someone can see this comment and help. In the meantime, I continue to pray, meditate, and force myself to exercise, and am learning how to eat properly. Thank you Lewis for all you do for us. Continued blessings.
Bless your heart!!! Please continue to talk about your desire to live a life free from pharmaceuticals because there are so many people who feel the same way. I have been taking antidepressants for decades!!! I am, as of 8 months, free from them and I would love to just help you to find a doctor who will assist you in titrating off of your medications. You are smart not to do that on your own and while I’m not a doctor, I do know that we can’t do this on our own so feel free to respond to this comment and maybe we can talk to see what your options are. Please keep talking about this, remain hopeful. You are not alone and you are so important. Thank you for your bravery!
Dr. Leaf is a valuable human being who is giving her time, energy and intelligence to benefit mankind. I have a deep respect for her and the work she is doing. This is an awesome video and I'm so thankful I had the opportunity to view it.
Yes she is amazing! I can’t wait to get her book and get started on this new journey. We are such powerful human beings but we let the outside dictate us! We must take back the control and live life to the fullest!
💯 Mary, *I agree,* I love her contributions! *So much valuable* information and research and insights. 💖
I'd amend your comment to: *every* human is valuable. You are a valuable human being. I am. Lewis is. Etc... we all bring different contributions, but *I believe we are all valuable human beings.* 😊

Funny how I've come across this video at this time, I'm literally rewiring my own brain. Giving up anything unhelpful. This video is very informative.
“FUNNY” is an interesting word - but “Truth & Research” Are looking for the Facts...
The mind Actually steered U to this Site as WE Were Not Thinking 🤣
I’m always steered to Sites, looking for Answers, interesting Subjects and People I need to know, and that’s called Collective Consciousness Kicking in...
Has something ever told U Not to do what you’re thinking
- but you Did it anyway * And BAM you F- - - - - dbrainUp Again🤯
hint maybe because of labels, foods or drugs
And then you Think, SOMETHING TOLD ME NOT TO DO THAT
Or,
I Thought that’s What 👁was supposed to Do😳
But you Do it Again Bam Bam Bam - 3 Strikes & 😱 Never Learn
Meaning that the Brain is being Damaged by Consent
.... And That’s What’s FUNNY..
The key too Truth is, That We Are What We Eat by Choices
Because We Were Taught & Told To Do as Habits 😤
I wasn’t looking for this Site either, but We All Met To Connect for a Purpose 🤣
As We are the potential Star seeds on this Site to share with Others
This Presentation & Outlet of Facts, is one of the Hotlines To our Creator
And that ain’t Funny 😍
I'm exactly in tune with the universe as I'm actually working this in my like right now 2 & boom its appeared!
Me too! What tools are you using?
Thank you. This was an excellent podcast. Dr Caroline is awesome
Glad you enjoyed it!
OMG, I feel like Dr. Leaf is my Soul Sister! I'm also 38 1/2 years into my delving into the Mind. I literally spoke at a conference in 2016 about "Trauma & the Brian/Mind/Body Connection." And she's the only other person other than me who talks about the danger of Forgiveness. I say it's more important for the other person to Apologize, but I love how she says you can just say you've Released it. Only difference is the techniques we use. I need to connect with her!!!
She's right, I used to think I'd always feel depressed and I surely did, but the day I changed my mind and stop telling myself that I relieved myself of suffering, I sometimes have days but instead of just sitting in it I try to figure it out and move on. Exercising helped me as well.
OMG yes. Self-work-I think it’s why we’re here. Like that one guy Ghandi said, “Be the change”. Running seriously helped me. Been running 10 years straight now. Helped Forrest Gump too.
People tend to always forget to mention sugar as an addiction. It's one of the biggest addictions that people struggle with.
Totally! Want to end fatigue, fuzzy thinking, lack of concentration, poor memory, sluggishness, lack of ambition or drive, weight gain, joint and muscle pain, clear your vision and end your anxiety - cut out all sugar and processed foods that contain sugar. (that's the tricky part, a lot of food sellers sweeten their products to get you addicted and keep buying their products) Always check ingredients.
Or, just eating in general.
Along with caffeine and/or alcohol.
@@tedrygren8330 : its not about quantity...its about quality and balance even ( you can eat sugar, just dont overload it )
@@Nord72 Ok. U wanna see me jump off a bridge 🌉?? COMPLETELY take away my access to sugar 🍚!!
Dr. Caroline Leaf is awesome! I really appreciate you bringing her in here. I've always thought neuroscience is the key for living the most fulfilling, healthy, happy life possible. Especially appreciated the explanation of how trauma impacts us and ALSO how we actually heal from it!
This video is absolutely beautiful seeing it from my perspective of a person who lived through abuse in childhood. It gives such practical steps how to become more aware and in control of how I choose to act in situations of stress, trauma, fear, etc. And it gave me even more reasons to be one of these 3% of leaders who talk about psychological issues.

@Prometheus Apollo Me, too-I eat those foods. Within a week of stopping all sugar, my moods were so much better, and within months I felt years younger.
@@loveenergy4255 I don't know if you know of or watch Dr. Berg, but he put out a video of what happens to your body after you quit sugar after two weeks, and enhanced mood was one of the things he mentioned, so I can attest for this. Lots of things change for the better when one eliminates sugar.
@@3_1_3rd_gaming Yes! I love Dr. Berg! 👍 He gets that food is medicine, and is either giving us life or taking away from it.
And this is how I got here. I couldn't reset my mood for today after meditating and reading a few books. My next step, science, psychology, something that will help me understand why I do the things I do. I shared this video within 20 minutes of listening. I have written more than 5 pages, while telling myself how great, smart, pretty valuable I am. Thank you so much for the love and support in helping us find ourselves.

More people need to learn self-control and realize they are the architect of their own destiny. If more people know this we could end a lot of suffering and make the world a better place.

Love this information! Acupuncture helped me to get off of anti-depressants. On my own, I realized that I also need to work on my thoughts. Eleven years of talk therapy helped me to reframe, but I needed more. I was responding to past trauma in fear and rumination. This is so helpful, thank you.

Lewis, you're an international treasure for bringing these interviews to us.
1. Gather the emotional, physical feeling, behaviour/action, perspective.
2. reflect(become detective, gather awareness and control). Meaning
3. Write- clusters of information
4. Action- do limited amount of time for 63 days. Mind healing needs 3 cycles of 21 days. With messy mind healing takes 60% more time.
Embrace and conceptualize the thoughts. Being aware of every 10 second-constant monitoring-self regulations. Brain building-mental and physical resilience-baby neurons responds to deep thinking-study deeply for an hour, anything challenges brain-improves neuroplasticity.
Thanks for the summary
This would be great to have a weekend retreat and work on applying these principles with no distractions.
Thanks for your notes.
Thank you for the summary
I wonder if that means someone like me can be helped. I can’t remember much trauma when I was a child as I was a loved and a bit spoilt and over protected We did travel the world 🌎( army kid) a lot and I did so many different schools in so many different countries-I managed to have an average education Always remember feeling a bit disorientated with peoples different accents in the different countries ! Generally a happy child although quite sensitive - I was stunned and upset for days at 8years old when a women went to hospital to have a baby and a 👶 baby died. I can remember crying to my mum but I can’t remember her response.Although I’m sure she was she would’ve been understanding and tried to explain it. But the time I was 10 I was lying in bed (back in UK ) when the cat was out every single night I would lie in bed worrying that it would get killed when it was out but daytime I Arose and I was back happy again- Rebellious teenager time came I had a bit of trouble at school and although I wasn’t allowed to mix with boys I ended up with an older boyfriend I was 13 he was 19. I ended up having his baby at 17 and leaving him at 21 due to his continuous violence and he was violent even when I was a teenager. My friend can never understand why I wasn’t a spoiled brat as I always was sharing my things and was very considerate - I think I was trying to be the nice girl mum wanted - I had a sister 12-years older than me but it was obvious I was the favourite one. Anyway by then 21 I left with my child As managed to get away but I ended up with another guy who was emotionally abusive and alcoholic. I never see signs of this because I was so pleased to be away from the first marriage I had a son with husband no 2 Who was autistic maybe he was vaccination damage this started to think about all the vaccines that I had over the years because my main mind was always in a state of turmoil. My mother was always helping me and my kids with household chores and finance although they were on minimum wages .By that time I was working due to the alcoholic partner couldn’t keep a job and I was working in child residential care I learn about issues of attachment here.and then started to do an extra study my daughters boyfriend was able to help me with a written work for the first two years and my other friends from then on and I ended up with a degree in social work . I had the information but I could not put it into a coherent pattern so people could understand. After two relationships one was a mutual split up and the other one I was with a narcissistic type I have been in a job for 13 years. At this job my boss was very good at just playing to my strengths supporting people ideas creativity etc I had a strong urge to protect young people. When redundancy happened which was only three years ago I have already had three jobs and each time that confusion no I’m 62 is overwhelming, I have had a stroke when I was 59 but I have recovered well and I cannot say that My brain is any worse although it showed up on the scanner as I have brain damage. But how do they know that wasn’t done with the many blows to the head when I was with my first husband from 13 to 21? I have since been diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia but I’m not convinced of these things but I cannot see where I’ve had a Adverse childhood trauma. Because before my violent relationship at a young age - i was already very easy lead very easily fooled was very impulsive and naughty. Although my mum would never admit it. Oh my God the things I have tried medication but very short lived, the Dore program Which cost me nearly £2000 and they kept telling me that I was better on their charts but I never felt I was getting any better on a day-to-day basis. Yoga -meditation and some Machine that I plugged into my head and listen to strange noises. I’ve always managed to make friends and keep them but I often play the one down position and never challenge if I think my friends are wrong about something or very rarely or if I do I think my words very very carefully because I don’t wanna upset anybody. Both my children have grown up and had problems but thank goodness they’ve worked through them and even my son who is autistic hold a job and my daughter who used to drink is now sober and she’s holding a position as a Counsellor and I’m proud of them both. I count my blessings because I know that some people never had any love to fall back on from the family but I still don’t understand why my brain is like my brain. I really enjoyed what this lady said today and I’m going to buy a book ASAP I have countless books and brains et cetera but I hope this one is going to be the one I also hope to get my brain in gear because I’m on a trial now for this job and I’m going to go and try medication just so that I may cope until I can do something else. The problem is I feel is that I never really know the root cause and if I knew the root cause I think that makes the treatment clearer. Sometimes I have believed I have a brain dysfunction and I’m ADHD And sometimes I just think I’ve got a lazy brain and it’s been lazy for years. I forgot to mention I’ve also been to Peru and Holland and tried psychedelics , Psychedelics are meant to open the Connections to the neurons in the brain un the brain-the Ayahuasca and the Mushrooms. I still believe in those in the sense that they could help but of course I’m in UK so that’s a no-no now. I am also doing psycho psychotropic breath work but as with meditation and yoga my brain 🧠 just wonders off and I don’t keep my focus. So I’m really hoping this book 📚 is going to help
This is so wonderful. I'm a psych nurse, and this isn't how we treat depression and other mental disorders. I'm wondering how I can exit psych nursing and become more holistic in a private practice, maybe as a life coach.

Oh yes the power suggestion our mind is crazy honey when I was inactive addiction and I didn't have my medication I would flip out but if I knew I was getting it or you know I mean I guess that's the placebo effect yeah it's bizarre
Psychological manipulation is another word for that too
My doctor tried that with me. I said no I'm not depressed. She wanted to give me pills. I said no. My energy is down. So something is going on. Checked my thyroid. Took meds no improvement. Went to naturopath
got better tests and natural meds. Felt way better in 1 month!

Thank you so much Lewis for your podcast and thank you Caroline Leaf for sharing your understanding. Your conversation is so important to so many people. Labelling unhappy people and putting them on long term medication is doing so much damage to so many unfortunate, misunderstood people who do not have the knowledge to do the inner work they need to rise above these traumatic experiences and evolve into healthy, happy people. We also have a spirit, not just a mind and a brain. There are many roads that lead to healing but accepting a psychiatric label (mental illness) and medicine is not one of them! Yes, temporary medication and help but not a lifetime sentence, please. We are here to learn and evolve.

This is incredibly inspiring. I've always believed that anxiety and depression are signals. Not an indication that something is wrong with YOU. Love this interview! Well done both
Indications are signals. What does depression signify/indicate?
SUP, I agree with you. As a 70 yo, male, retired now, I have suffered with Chronic Anxiety with occassional Panic / Anxiety Attacks. I have Spinal Issues that have surfaced over the many years, which were not innate, but developed after a Physical Trauma of a fractured right femur in 1966. It resulted ina 1 inch shorter leg which in turn wreaked havoc with my spine and "physical Infrastructure". This topic , this Doctor is fantastic, so energetic and knowledgeable and Insightful. You can plainly see How Excited sghe is explaining Neuroscience. That is the Science of the 21st Century. Amazing how she explains the Mental Traumas you may experience , no matter how minimal you initially think they are, affect your MIND and thus your Mind - Body Connection.
@@bootstrapperwilson7687 For me. Under the depression was unidentifed trauma from not knowing I had an ADHD brain, and the world being so hard. Also bad diet. Good Gut microbes are vital to good cognitive funciton.
Functional mushrooms (we need the anti-inflamatories for our brains, and the beta gloucons to allow neurogenisis to turn back to recover the lost brain cells), yoga, and unlimited self love and forgivness were my approxomate tools/plan.

I've been experiencing debilitating anxiety, panic, chronic autoimmune diseases, depression, complex ptsd. This has been since at least 14 years old. It became unbearable about 14 years ago. ( I'm 50 this year, 2022) I've done, and tried to learn so much for so long to become well again.
I wish I'd been aware of you and your knowledge and wisdom many years ago.
I'm going to read your book.
Thank-you!!
I love what she says about forgiveness. Forgiving someone who has caused such trauma has always been hard for me to conceive. She says that what someone has done can never be forgiven. That wrongness is always there. What happen in that moment in time was wrong, but it's not our responsibility to make that person own it. They have to unpack that wrongness, what we have to do is be released from it. Starts around 1:19 for anyone interested.
Thanks for the time stamp🙏
the one who causes a trauma may have also been traumatised. Don´t forget that.
@@juttaschmieg342 it's always a choice to continue a cycle of abuse or addiction or break it. True empathy, understanding & conviction are the core of breaking the cycles. And it's difficult for most people to get into that state of mind most are too self consumed dealing with their own life and whatever justification drives them to continue abusing. It takes huge amounts of strength & bravery to get to the CORE of these very personal (hence societal issues) and change for the better once a person has gone down that path, but It can be done!! I know so many who haven't continued the generational cycle of abuse because they remembered how it felt to be beaten, raped, forced to use drugs by their parents or others they trusted and made a vow to NEVER make another feel as horrible as they felt. One person I know was 8 yrs old when he made that choice to never be like his father. And he had been tricked a number of times by his father to drink alcohol by the age of 5 yrs. old because his father thought it was funny to watch his little boy stumble & slur. This young boy never became an alcoholic like his father, never forced alcohol on his children or anyone else. He broke the cycle and he is one of so many unsung heroes in our world!
It's always an individual choice!!!!!
Thank you, I needed this today 🙏
I love the hope she brings to mental health issues! We are not stuck and it does not have to be a life sentence.
Thankyou Lewis Howes. All of your podcasts are amazing. Caroline Leaf and her book is exactly what I've been looking for in my life. I've just rented out the book from the library and hopefully I can buy the book soon
I am getting that book. Going to study each one she’s read- thank you for the exposure to this! This science driven conversation gave me hope that I can control my mental state.
The mind is a terrible thing to waste says Tuskegee University president Dr Patterson. We need to manage our mind to offset shooting in schools and groceries. Retrain the mind is vital. But how do we do this? We need that kind of information.

this needs to be a mandatory school subject
I learned that all feelings come from a thought. We now know that feelings and thoughts inform each other.
No, it shouldn't. It's pseudoscience. Looks like you missed the real science subjects at your school.
Exactly 👍😍😍
Why?
Actual self care
My granddaughter gave me an orchid 2 years ago , the first I've ever had, it started to bud and flower last year and I've never felt such delight over something so trivial but it brought me so much happiness 💖 so I'm so excited this year im keeping a close eye on it 🧐🙏

Lewis, it's so nice to see you listen, actually *listen* to your guests. Time and time again I notice you do that and I wanted to thank you for actually not having an agenda when your guest is talking. It creates such a great viewing experience. Also this is such a great channel. Yes, I've liked, subscribed and shared! :-)
Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️
How good is this? What a lucid, vivid and factual explanation. I have learned so much. Dr Leaf is astounding.
