WHAT IS A TRULY (MENTALLY) HEALTHY SELF? • - This week we released the first episode in a 4 episode special guest series of the Huberman Lab podcast all about mental health, featuring expert guest Dr Paul Conti’s MD— a @stanford.med and @harvardmed trained psychiatrist, who is ultra skilled in understanding the unconscious mind and the conscious mind and their interplay, defense mechanisms, and how all of that relates to our mental health. - One of the questions we address is how to assess ones own mental health. If you think about it, there’s a TON of information out in the world about how to assess and improve your physical health, but far less information about how to assess and improve your mental health. Indeed, most of the discussions about mental health out their end up being discussions about mental illness, not mental health. - In this episode, and in the 3 that follow (we release episodes 2-4 each Wednesday this month), Dr. Conti explains how agency and gratitude are the keys to mental health, but that we need to think of those as *verbs* as opposed to feeling states, and he provides the steps to constantly increase our agency and gratitude. - He also graciously provided simple easy to use worksheets to accompany the series. You can find links to those in the show note captions. - This series on mental health with Dr. Paul Conti covers information that, to my knowledge, has never been covered elsewhere before and that is important and relevant for all people of all ages. - You can find the episode in all formats at hubermanlab.com; this and all HLP episodes are timestamped so that you can navigate easily to the topics most of interest to you. - Meanwhile, please put any questions you have in the comments section below this post, and as always, thank you for your interest in science! - @hubermanlab @stanford.med @stanford @nihgov @nimhgov @societyforneuroscience @cellpress - #neuroscience #science #neurosciencia #ciencia #brain #neuroplasticity #psychology #psychiatry #mind #self #conscious #mentalhealth
