Rewiring Your Brain: Dr. Laurel Mellin on Emotional Brain Training

The new paradigm is: you’ve got to go to the bottom of the brain and you want to have a therapist or an EBT provider or a physician, someone who’s helping you.
Feeling overwhelmed by stress and looking for a fresh approach to managing it? This episode of the Landmark Recovery Podcast might be just what you need. Host Zachary Crouch chats with Dr. Laurel Mellin, a New York Times bestselling author, about her innovative method called Emotional Brain Training (EBT). Dr. Mellin's new book, 'The Stress Overload Solution', dives deep into how EBT can help you rewire your brain to better handle stress and improve your overall well-being. Dr.
Mellin breaks down the limitations of traditional methods like cognitive, behavioral, and mindfulness approaches, explaining why they often fall short in addressing the root causes of stress. Instead, she introduces EBT as a powerful tool that targets the brain's stress circuits directly. Imagine having the ability to stop stress messages in their tracks before they wreak havoc on your mental health—sounds pretty life-changing, right? Throughout the episode, Dr.
Mellin shares real-life benefits of EBT, such as increased happiness, stronger relationships, and improved work performance. She emphasizes that this approach isn't just for those in recovery but can benefit anyone struggling with high-stress emotions. And it's not just about self-help; therapists, EBT providers, and physicians play a crucial role in guiding people through this transformative process. Dr. Mellin also stresses the importance of introducing EBT early in addiction recovery.
By doing so, individuals can create a mental framework that supports long-term sobriety and emotional resilience. If you're curious about how rewiring your brain can lead to a happier, more balanced life, this episode is a must-listen.
