Episode notes
Brain Freeze Explained
- Brain freezes happen because rapid cold exposure causes blood vessels near the brain to contract and dilate quickly.
- This triggers meninges receptors to send pain signals as a protective response, not actual brain pain.
Brain Can't Feel Pain
- The brain itself cannot feel pain because it lacks pain receptors.
- Headaches arise from pain in nerves, muscles, and blood vessels surrounding the brain, not inside it.
Understanding Insecurity Types
- Insecurity is uncertainty, anxiety, inadequacy, or feeling open to threat.
- It can be acute (short-term) or chronic (constant), affecting confidence and behavior differently.
