Trauma, Inflammation, and Recovery
Insights from Neurobiology
Recorded Friday 18 March 2022
With Donna Jackson Nakazawa
CE Credits: 3 hours
Recent discoveries in neuroscience tell us that body and brain are constantly responding to perceived threats from our environment, deciding – on a cellular level – whether we are safe or not. How secure we feel in the world around us profoundly affects not only our physical and immune health, but our brain’s immune health, which, in turn, determines our mental wellbeing.
In this seminar, we will explore how early trauma sets the stage for brain health in adulthood, how chronic stressors in adult life exacerbate these potential ill effects, and the latest scientific understanding on the biophysical link between trauma, inflammation, and mental health.
READ MORE...Participants will also learn the latest neuroscience on why chronic stressors and adversity affect the female brain and immune system in unique ways, and how this gender difference first manifests in puberty, playing a role in higher rates of mental health disorders and autoimmunity in girls and women.
We will discuss how these myriad factors contribute to depression, anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health concerns in all patients, and most importantly why understanding these key emerging findings in neuroscience and neuroimmunology are crucial to intervening and treating mental health disorders.
