We have to stop calling these things mental illness and call them what they really are: brain health issues that steal your mind.
Why is mental illness on the rise even as other diseases decline? In this episode of The Brain Warrior's Way Podcast, Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen tackle this perplexing issue head-on. Drawing from Dr. Amen's PBS special 'Change Your Brain, Heal Your Mind', they outline six actionable steps to improve brain health and address mental health challenges. One of the key takeaways? Stop calling it 'mental illness' and start thinking of it as 'brain health issues'.
This shift in perspective can make a world of difference in how we approach treatment and self-care. The Amens introduce the Bright Minds mnemonic to help you remember these steps. They stress the importance of loving your brain, treating it well, and choosing the least toxic yet most effective treatments. They also delve into the role of diet and nutrition in mental health, offering practical tips on how what you eat can either help or harm your brain.
For those wary of medication, this episode provides alternatives for managing anxiety and other conditions. You'll learn about the impact of toxins and head trauma on brain function and how to mitigate these risks. Whether you're struggling with your own mental health or supporting a loved one, this episode is packed with valuable insights to help you take control of your brain and body.
