What Your Brain Does With Trauma—And How to Finally Heal It (Pt 1)
About this episode
Dan Jarvis discusses the impact of trauma on the brain and the path to healing.
Dan Jarvis came home from Afghanistan carrying wounds that didn't show up on any medical chart. In this episode, he breaks down what trauma actually does to the brain - why it hijacks your responses, why willpower alone can't fix it, and how understanding the neuroscience behind your pain is the first step to healing it. Dan built Healing the Hero, a nonprofit that has helped over 18,000 people reclaim their lives! This is a conversation about what it really takes to heal—for both veterans and civilians. It might just help you or someone you love. Learn more about Healing the Hero here Support the show: https://www.normalfolks.us/#join See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
