Summary

I sit down with Dr. Amen to discuss everything brain-related: how looking at the brain changed the meaning of mental illness for him, how drugs and alcohol impact your brain health, tricks to calm your nervous system down, brain injuries that we may not even be aware of, every day harmful things were doing, plus simple things we can do to help the health of our brain, why flossing is so important, why thoughts can be too positive, what to be doing with our boys who play football, and why it's so important to get anger out.
