In this episode of the Align podcast, Dr Caroline Leaf talks to us about the mind-brain connection and the prevailing misconceptions about mental wellbeing. We also look into the Neuro Cycle method - a system designed to change the way you understand and manage your thoughts. We dive into the true nature of trauma, and the value in observing your body’s signals as they relate to mental wellbeing. We finish the episode with the benefits of writing to organise your mind.
