Licensed neuropsychotherapist and author Britt Frank joins us to turn traditional therapy concepts on their heads. Contrary to the notion that our brains are inherently flawed, Britt argues for viewing the brain as an ally in our survival journey. Her personal experiences with trauma and addiction fuel her drive to challenge outdated therapeutic models, shifting the focus from dysfunction to empowerment. Through her insights, she invites us to reimagine mental health as an ever-evolving journey rather than a destination marked by being "healed."

We navigate through often tangled therapeutic dialogues, questioning the entrenched reliance on therapists and medication as signs of dysfunction. Instead, we explore the power of personal agency and therapeutic independence. The episode tackles the fear of inner work, underlining how facing our internal narrative can reveal an innate goodness, even if past choices suggest otherwise. Britt shares her innovative approaches, including workbooks inspired by her book "The Science of Stuck," encouraging listeners to actively participate in their mental health journey.

Finally, we address the evolution of therapy practices, emphasizing the necessity for the field to keep up with advancements in brain science. Britt's upcoming book, "Align Your Mind," promises to delve further into harmonizing our internal dialogues. We wrap up with a call to action, inviting you to engage with us on social media and to continue this unconventional exploration of mental health. Join us for a transformative discussion that promises to reshape how you perceive your mental well-being.

After enduring a difficult period of anxiety and depression following a traumatic event at the age of 15, Susie Amendola found a powerful ally in yoga, which she shares in this episode of the Gaslit Truth Podcast. Susie's journey to healing began when her mother introduced her to yoga, during a time when mental health was rarely discussed, and holistic clinics offered a beacon of hope. For over three decades, Susie has been committed to teaching the authentic essence of yoga, and she joins us to discuss the transformative power of this ancient practice, contrasting its healing potential with the often commercialized versions found in the western world.

We also break down stereotypes and misconceptions about yoga, emphasizing its inclusivity and accessibility to individuals of all body types, shapes, and sizes. My own experience of becoming a certified yoga instructor during the pandemic shed light on trauma-informed yoga's focus on personal connection and self-awareness. By centering and embodying these practices, yoga emerges as a transformative tool for stress relief and healing, encouraging a culture where everyone can find a place, regardless of preconceived notions or physical abilities.

Our conversation further explores the principles of trauma-sensitive yoga and the importance of creating safe spaces for healing. Susie shares insights from her work with a lifestyle program for cardiac patients inspired by Dr. Dean Ornish, showcasing the profound impact of yoga, a vegan diet, and stress management on heart disease, depression, and diabetes. We delve into practical stress management techniques, the importance of internal self-care practices, and the value of mindfulness. By embracing these practices, we learn to foster a profound sense of well-being and presence, underscoring the power of yoga in personal healing and transformation.

Discover the evolving landscape of mental health with us on the Gaslit Truth Podcast as we sit down with Dr. Josh Friedman, a pioneer in nutritional psychology. Dr. Josh's journey from traditional mental health treatment to embracing holistic and nutritional approaches offers profound insights into the biochemical and nutritional foundations of psychological well-being. He shares how his diverse background in psychoanalysis, yoga, and holistic health informs his unique approach, while also touching on the challenges he's faced, including an intriguing Facebook ban during the COVID-19 pandemic for discussing alternative health perspectives.

In this eye-opening episode, we address a critical issue: the relentless pursuit of credentials in the mental health field, and the often-overlooked importance of hands-on work with individuals. Our discussion highlights the skepticism and eventual acceptance of innovative therapies, like amino acid therapy, and notes a shift toward integrative medicine, as evidenced by the rising number of therapists embracing more holistic views. We also delve into the stagnation within psychiatry despite the introduction of new treatments, emphasizing the need for comprehensive medical evaluations and the effectiveness of simple, foundational health practices.

Finally, we share our inspiring experiences from a recent conference that connected us with influential figures like Christina Veselak and Hila Cass. These encounters reinforced the importance of following one's path and trusting in one's capabilities. We challenge the notion of "treatment resistance," suggesting that it often indicates a need for new tools. By sharing personal triumphs and the fulfillment of making a difference, we hope to inspire mental health professionals to embrace their unique approaches, fostering a supportive community for future practitioners.
