Episode description

Recently I had the pleasure of hosting a live event in Brisbane, Australia. This event was part of a lecture series called The Brain Body Contract. My favorite part of the evening was the question and answer period, where I had the opportunity to answer questions from the attendees of each event. Included here is the Q&A from our event at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre.

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Experience pleasure in effort through testosterone

The primary psychological effect of testosterone is not necessarily increased aggression or libido, but rather that it makes the act of exerting effort feel good.

#motivation

#testosterone

Utilize nicotine for cognitive enhancement without cancer risk

Nicotine itself is a powerful cognitive enhancer that doesn't cause cancer, but the common delivery methods do, and it also raises blood pressure.

#cognition

#nicotine

Train visual focus to enhance cognitive focus in ADHD

A behavioral tool for ADHD used in China involves training children to maintain visual focus on a distant target, which in turn improves their cognitive focus.

#ADHD

Recognize burnout as psychological, not adrenal fatigue

Burnout is not a physical 'adrenal burnout,' which is a myth, but rather a psychological state that typically occurs months after a stressful period ends.

#mental-health

#stress

Train your appetite with whole foods for better nutrition intuition

Eating unprocessed foods helps your brain learn to associate specific tastes with their nutritional content, developing a more accurate intuition for what your body needs.
