My New Orleans Lessons: triune brain, impulse control, and neuro-transmitters

Ep #220 - Bourbon Street! One of the highest levels of debauchery you're gonna find in the United States. I went there and learned so much about myself and how differently I see my world, and THE WORLD, now that I am a person in longterm recovery. In today's episode let's dive into what I learned from my trip to Orleans, besides how wise I was to pack some great walking shoes. Having experienced 22-years living my life through my emotional mind - where impulse control was something my friends and I laughed about not having, all the way to having a lack of caring about the consequences around my actions...I know all to well what it is like to blackout in an environment full of predatory hustlers looking to take advantage of people in an inebriated state of mind.  We're gonna discuss the triune brain, how the reptilian and mammalian brain will lead you down that dark alley where nothing good happens. I'll pepper in some information on how dopamine and serotonin are the drivers to your impulsive decision making, and then I'll finish by reminding you that if you expect sobriety and recovery to be as amazing as people talk about then you are going to have to push yourself to do things you have never done! Just hit play and let's dive in with our open minds, hearts, and energies bringing everyone into the fold - you are in the right place, at the right time...right now. It is time. It has been time. To live is to shine. Step into the SUN. Stand up, step forward, raise your hand - it's your turn, head the call! ******************************************** I know you enjoy the show, so PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, RATE, AND REVIEW on your preferred streaming app or click this link to review on iTunes - Let’s spread the word about our show TOGETHER!  Your simple action of rating and reviewing does wonders in helping others find the show.
