Acceptance Commitment Therapy

Through the pandemic, lines between physical trauma and emotional trauma have seemed especially blurred. This week, Rabbi Iggy and Dr. Gulick, a neuropsychologist and fellow at Clinical Neuropsychology Associates, explore questions of trauma and identity. How can conversations around brain plasticity and neuroscience thoughtfully converge with questions of the human condition? This fascinating conversation finds the synthesis of both science and spirituality, guided by Dr. Gulick’s expertise and Rabbi Iggy’s rabbinic wisdom. They discuss Dr. Gulick’s recent research around brain fog from Covid-19 and the long-term effects of anxiety, depression, disconnect, and addiction on the brain. This is a discussion that will leave you with real tactics for how to retain as much brain plasticity (and humanity) despite what happens to us.
