Your Brain On... Grief

What grief does to our brains, and how we can grow from one of life's most challenging experiences.

The impact grief has on your mind can be so severe, some experts refer to it as an 'emotional traumatic brain injury'. And, like many life-altering physical changes, the cognitive effects of grief aren't so much something to 'get over' — rather, they're something we can learn to live with and thrive alongside.

In 'Your Brain On... Grief', we discuss:

• How the emotional trauma of losing those you love can physically change your brain

• The association between grief and chronic stress

• Journalling, creativity, and lifestyle factors as methods for healing from grief

• The importance of community in managing loss

• The risks of oversimplified models of dealing with grief, e.g. the 'five stages of grief'

• What we can learn from different cultures about handling grief

Joining us for this emotional journey are two insightful guests:

DR. LISA SHULMAN: grief neurologist and author of 'Before and After Loss'

AMBER JEFFREY: grief mentor and host of podcast The Grief Gang.

'Your Brain On' is hosted by neurologists, scientists and public health advocates Ayesha and Dean Sherzai.

Drs. Ayesha and Dean are now welcoming patients via the Brain Health Institute: https://brainhealthinstitute.com/
