Neuroplasticity Brain Retraining: Reduce Stress, Anxiety, And Sleep Issues With Ashok Gupta

05/12/23 • 58 min

We live in a world of threats and triggers. This causes our brains to go haywire, setting off our amygdala in that fight-or-flight response. We then become stressed and anxious, which affects other areas of our lives. How do we retrain our brain to reduce this anxiety? In today’s episode, Whitney Lauritsen is joined by Ashok Gupta of the Gupta Program to discuss how we can navigate through the stressors in life. Ashok dives deep into the brain with Neuroplasticity Brain Retraining and how we can treat illness through neuroplasticity. He also locates the amygdala as it relates to what it does to our unconscious fears and responses. He answers why we have a chronic overload of insomnia and sleep issues, how devices impact our emotions and distract us from processing, and how anxiety, depression, and insomnia correlate with social media. In this world that is in a constant state of stress and busyness, more than ever, we need to learn how to calm down our nervous system. Ashok shows us the value of holistic, integrated medicine. He guides us to move from resistance to meditation, recommending spending time in nature as a number one solution. He talks about the gap of insecurity that exists in our society and how to discern what is soul-enhancing and soul-crushing. Plus, Ashok talks about long COVID immune responses, using Game of Thrones to explain our immune system. Let us cleanse our minds of mental dirt and live according to human nature in terms of human connection. Join this jam-packed episode to train your brain to do that and come back to balance.
