In this episode, we'll peek at why scrolling isn't a "willpower" problem, but an exploitation of your brain's reward systems (kinda like slot machines!). We'll cover the neuroscience behind the prefrontal cortex "battling" dopamine loops, and how stress makes it worse. We'll also talk about practical strategies that actually WORK with your brain's design, so you can ditch any guilt and reclaim control. . . . oh hi & welcome to “Not Entirely Unlike Tea” – i’m christine collins & i love...

why it's b.s. to say "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" - the neuroscience
In this episode, we'll peek at why "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is actually backwards from a neuroscience view. We'll talk about how trauma ACTUALLY changes your brain, how hyper-vigilance kicks in, and the relief that can be found with evidence-based healing therapies that actually work. . . . oh hi & welcome to “Not Entirely Unlike Tea” – i’m christine collins & i love reflecting on mindset, psychology, neuroscience & optimizing neural pathways for creativity, happ...
