What if the brain doesn’t need more medication — it needs more safety?In this episode, I sit down with Carol Garner-Houston, founder of Brain Harmony, to explore how a bottom-up, neuroplasticity-based approach restores nervous system regulation and rebuilds neural pathways at any age. We discuss why calming fight-or-flight comes before cognitive gains, how sound and multi-sensory tools accelerate brain organization, and what’s possible for trauma, ADHD, stroke recovery, and more.- - - - - Carol Garner-Houston is an award-winning Occupational Therapist with over 25 years of experience and the co-founder of Brain Harmony, a neuroplasticity-based occupational therapy clinic specializing in a bottom-up approach to healing.
