Ever wondered if happiness is more than just a personal goal? In this compelling episode, Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen sit down with MMA fighter and author Justin Wren to explore this very question. They dive deep into the lasting impact of emotional trauma and discuss how holding on to hurt can affect your brain. The conversation also highlights the benefits of EMDR therapy, a powerful tool for processing trauma, and the often-overlooked importance of self-care.
Justin Wren shares his unique perspective on why happiness should be seen as a moral obligation, not just an optional extra. Drawing on his own experiences, he emphasizes that taking care of your mental health isn't just about you; it impacts everyone around you. Imagine being raised by someone who is perpetually unhappy – it's not just difficult for them, but for everyone in their life. Dr.

This episode is packed with practical advice and emotional insights that will leave you thinking about your own approach to happiness and mental health. If you're curious about how to better manage emotional trauma or simply want to understand why happiness might be a duty, this episode is a must-listen.
It's not just about feeling good; it's about making the world around you a better place.
