episode Acute Trauma: How Your Brain Helps You Survive the Unthinkable cover

Acute Trauma: How Your Brain Helps You Survive the Unthinkable

In this episode of Her Brain Matters, we explore what happens in the brain during and after acute trauma. Drawing on neuroscience and psychology, we break down how the brain’s survival systems take over, why memory and time can feel distorted, and why responses such as freeze, dissociation, and hypervigilance are not signs of weakness, but of adaptation. With a smaller focus on women’s neurobiology, this episode offers language, understanding, and compassion for how acute trauma shapes the brain and how healing begins.

episode Meditation in Your Mind cover

Meditation in Your Mind

Mindfulness and meditation have become mainstream buzzwords, but what do these practices actually do for our brains and bodies? In this episode, we’ll explore the neuroscience behind meditation, how it impacts stress, memory, and attention, and why consistency matters more than time. You will hear from two experts from the Mindfulness Center at the Brown University School of Public Health, Dr. Jeffrey Proulx and Professor Lynn Koerbel. Guided by their incredible insight and research, we unpack the cultural roots, modern adaptations, and accessible forms of mindfulness that can fit into any lifestyle. Have you ever wondered if meditation is worth the hype? Tune in to find out.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
