The success of hypnotherapy could be that it targets the brain's subconscious, and these systems which control our digestion also function at a subconscious level.
Ever felt butterflies in your stomach when you're nervous? You're not alone. The gut-brain connection is a fascinating area of research that's revealing some unexpected treatments for conditions like Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).

The episode also features personal stories, including comedian and drag performer Annie, who shares the struggles of managing IBS while performing. These real-life accounts make the science relatable and offer hope to those dealing with IBS.
