What if you could harness the power of oxygen to heal the brain? Uncover the potential of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) with guest, Dr. Amir Haddany, a leading neurosurgeon and hyperbaric medicine expert. Dr. Haddany takes us through his pioneering research since 2008, sharing how HBOT is transforming treatment for neurological conditions like traumatic brain injuries and long COVID. Through the lens of advanced imaging techniques such as MRI, we explore the profound effects of COVID-19 on critical brain areas and how HBOT might offer a beacon of hope for recovery.

Dr. Haddany's insights reveal the intricate pathways through which long COVID disrupts cognitive functions, backed by compelling imaging evidence. Our conversation delves into the innovative treatment protocols adapted from conditions like ME and fibromyalgia, focusing on the role of oxygen fluctuations in stimulating mitochondria and facilitating healing. The protocols, akin to cellular interval training, illustrate the regenerative potential of HBOT when applied consistently over extended periods, offering a glimpse into the complex process of brain healing.

We unpack a study suggesting long-term benefits for long COVID patients, emphasizing the significance of a rigorous, randomized controlled trial. Dr. Haddany's generous sharing of his knowledge and willingness to engage with our listeners provides not only an insightful discussion but also a platform for future inquiry and exploration into the world of hyperbaric medicine.

Ever wondered how the traits of ADHD intersect with perfectionism & chronic illness? Jenny Adams returns to offer insights into the intricate dance between trauma, perfectionism, & health challenges. We unravel how ADHD manifests uniquely in women & discuss the crucial need to recognize these traits to better support those managing chronic illnesses. Jenny's story is not just one of struggle but also of hope & inspiration for those seeking a path to recovery.

Exploring the connections between trauma & perfectionism, we discuss insights from thought leaders like Gabor Maté, considering how these patterns can emerge as responses to past experiences. Through personal anecdotes, we highlight the struggle of all-or-nothing thinking & the significance of finding satisfaction in the present moment rather than in unattainable ideals. From breaking tasks into manageable pieces to self-regulation strategies during overwhelming times, we offer practical support to listeners who face similar challenges in their everyday lives.

Perfectionism can often be mistaken for a strength, yet it frequently leaves us dissatisfied & longing for control. We reflect on how perfectionist tendencies may stem from feelings of unworthiness, drawing on personal stories to emphasize the importance of vulnerability & self-compassion. Together, we explore how childhood beliefs & societal pressures shape our quest for perfection & the emotional toll it takes. By focusing on the power of self-compassion over perfectionism, we aim to inspire you to embrace a more balanced & self-compassionate life, recognizing your inherent worth beyond productivity.
