Because of this neuroplasticity, just making changes to ourselves, which is what you just talked about- reasoning, self-regulation, putting into place new practices that counter how we were raised, counter the messages we received, counter the detrimental self-talk putting those things into place.
What if your brain could rewire itself to help you heal from trauma? In this episode of 'Thru the Wringer with Mike and Jo', the married duo dives into the fascinating concept of neuroplasticity. Jo, despite feeling a bit off her game, and Mike take a deep dive into how our brains can adapt and change, offering a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with past traumas or current challenges.
They break down the science in a way that's easy to grasp, making complex topics like the nervous system's response to trauma accessible to all. But it’s not just science talk; Mike and Jo share their personal experiences, weaving in stories that bring these concepts to life.

The episode wraps up with practical advice on self-regulation and combating negative self-talk, leaving listeners with actionable steps to start their own healing journey. It's an episode filled with warmth, wisdom, and a touch of humor—perfect for anyone looking to understand their brain better and find new ways to cope.
