Brain Retraining & the Brain/Body Connection with Lindsay Mitchell founder of Vital-Side™
Every so often a situation arises that triggers the ‘fight or flight’ response. Unfortunately, for those living with a chronic illness or chronic symptoms, that trigger rarely goes away. In this episode of But, What If You Did Podcast, Alyson Pallanck welcomes Lindsay Mitchell to talk about neuroplasticity and the role brain retraining plays in chronic diagnosis. Lindsay shares her story of how her own experiences with Lyme disease led her to start Vital-Side™– an innovative approach to brain retraining designed to help you find freedom from the debilitating symptoms of chronic illness.
As a bonus, we dive into one of my favorite topics… why mornings matter!
