Show Notes

In this episode, Dr. Alauna breaks down the anatomy of the primitive brain, and the 7 parts of your brain that are critical to understanding your mental health. 

Have you ever heard of your amygdala?  Did you know it does more than create FEAR responses?  When is the last time you thought about your Brain Reward System?  Did you know dopamine drives all addiction processes?  Do you know how to activate your prefrontal cortex?  Did you even know you have a PFC???

We have learned to blame everybody, God and the Devil for our feelings, while the actual culprit is sitting right there inside of Your Brain! It's time to learn to wrestle your own anatomy!  https://www.traumarecoveryacademy.com/courses/primitive-brain-systems-crash-course
