So let's say for example, your mom always yelled at you. So you would have a lot of dysregulation to the auditory part of your brain like that would be blown out. Does that make sense? It would be like turning on a light too bright, staring at it as a child. So you're just like, dude, my eyes are just not right. Now, it doesn't mean it's permanently like that. It just means right now in your current state without addressing whatever is going on with it, you have too much sensitivity to that. That person probably wouldn't do well with music or sounds. Does that make sense? Because (inaudible) through that cortex is considered stressful. The signal's off. Amy Ledin 0:31 Alright, so it's just adding more stress to it. Isaac Ho 0:33 Yeah. So sometimes, like when people are like, well, what do you do for coping mechanisms? My answer to that is based off how your brain is wired in this moment, and then I would switch them. But ideally, I try to get them not dysfunctional. Amy Ledin 0:48 What are you doing to create your dream life or your best self? Why do we see some thrive through challenges while others struggle?

So now it's a running thing I do. I have quarterly what I call Jared sabbaticals. To this day, I still do these where about once a quarter a couple times a year, I literally go get an Airbnb somewhere by myself for several days, just so I can give my brain time to breathe and process all the things.
