The Subconscious Mind: How Trauma and Biology Shape Our Choices
When people tell you how you've impacted their lives, you need to embrace it, because we're not going to knock everything out the park.
Ever wondered how much control you really have over your decisions? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Mental Health Monday', Michelle Renee Davis, also known as Every1 Favorite Therapist, invites Karin, an experienced addictions therapist, to explore the fascinating interplay between trauma, biology, and free will. Karin, with her master's degree in public health and 11 years of experience, dives into how our brains function like computers, operating largely on the unconscious level.
Together, they discuss how early trauma can influence our perception of safety and shape our decision-making processes. The conversation doesn't stop there; they also touch on the importance of community and belonging, setting healthy boundaries to prevent burnout, and harnessing the power of positive thinking to combat negativity. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the subconscious mind's role in shaping our lives and looking to take charge of their mental well-being.
