Healing the Crisis of Self with Dr. Christopher K. Slaton
from The Brain’s Body Podcast: The Brain Is the Body · host Dr. Christopher K. Slaton
Send us Fan MailPain doesn’t just hurt—it can reshape how we take in the world. When we’re wounded by harmful interactions, we may start reacting from emotional tension instead of responding with awareness, reflection, and self-control. I’m Dr. Christopher K. Slaton, and on the Brain’s Body Podcast, I explain why that happens and what to do when your mind and body feel stuck in the aftereffects of hurt, sadness, and stress. Through what I call the crisis of self—the inner turning point where consequences create an opening for change—we explore how emotional pain affects children, parents, relationships, work, and decision-making. Using my Human Systems Science approach, I connect the senses, brain, and body as one learning system, drawing from neuroscience, psychology, sociology, and cognitive and behavioral sciences to show how home, school, neighborhood, and workplace environments shape emotional injury and growth. You’ll leave with a practical framework for improving mental health, strengthening self-awareness, understanding other people more clearly, and becoming more aware of the environments you move through. Subscribe to the Brain’s Body Podcast, share it with someone ready to break unhealthy reaction patterns, and leave a review with the trigger you want to understand next.Support the showEducation and Science: The Brain's Body, Help to Improve Brain, Body, and Sense Events. www.brainsbody.net *Improving Mental Health and Self-Awareness: www.humansystemsscience.com * Brain Talk: Learning the Brain's Body with Dr. Slaton Live. www.drslatonlive.com Also: Dr. Christopher K Slaton: Amazon.com., Barnes&Noble.com * #TheBrainIsTheBody, #ParentLeadership, #ChildDevelopment, [email protected]
