Thanks for watching! Don't miss out on these exclusive offers:

it’s kinda crazy how nobody’s talking about Antozent, they are selling 150 self help books for the price of one

[nafcizzle]

Five things i learnt
1.The brain generally is lazy, it tends to do what it has been trained to do hence the need to try and consinstently learn good habits.
2. Always ask yourself - good for your brain or bad for it ? Diet, habits etc
3.How you go about your day is important, Start off with telling yourself this is gonna be a great day, go on thru the day consciously, then at the end of the day, assess and focus more on what went well. Repeat.
4. Impulsivity and ADHD are real, and so is depression and addiction. Seek professional advice.
5. Its never too late to start healing your brain through a healthy lifestyle. Improvements can occur even within 3 weeks of consistency.

'It's not the thoughts you have that make you suffer. It's the thoughts you attach to'
- Dr. Amen

[sharonbest]

Rich, you dont interrupt too much. You summarize information in a really great way. Sometimes your guests are all of the place with their message and you help refocus. I think you do this better than most podcasts hosts out there.

[APOLLINAIREBARTHOLOMIEU]

Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.

[cherylkrantz]

The first thing I said to my daughter and husband when my Son died was say over and over We Are Going To Be OK. The brain will do what it's told❤

[meetandinspire]

"The big exciting lesson over the last 30 years in neuroscience is neuroplasticity. You're not stuck with the brain you have, you can make it better."

[katiuskasotomayor]

I do not think you interrupt that much, you truly allow your guests to speak and finish their ideas. Great episode!! You rock Rich!

[tralasong]

Who wants to see Rich's brain? I do! Such a great episode. As someone with [very] limited resources [at the moment] I am so grateful for a generous podcast like this [thank you both!]. I love that you give advice that even I can apply to my life right now. [I'm a 58 yo woman. A little late to the party but I'm showing up now. Every. Single. Day.] Someday I'd love to have a scan but right now I can make changes and am doing so. I 'changed my mind' [truly didn't believe or know that i could] recently and appreciate the generosity of people like the two of you who have been helpful guides for me while I navigate out of very stark darkness. I am eternally grateful!

[ninam]

This is so revolutionary but also full of common sense. People are so eager to just have an excuse and a pill and keep living their sad lives. We need to stop labeling and medicating so readily and point people to real solutions for health and lasting contentment

[roboterminator_T-]

I came to suffer in this world as well, i was born premature inside a home i was never put into a incubator had multiple surgeries, suffer from insomnia, underdeveloped bones, but the hardest part to all of this is my tinnitus, on my right ear constantly ringing. The only time i feel at peace is when I'm sleeping and don't feel anything nor hear anything. Im only 23 and this feels like I'm fighting in an uphill battle with my anxiety, depression, and laziness. I'm not obese i got a bear belly and I'm skinny from my hands to my feet the only places where im chubby is my stomach and chest. Life has really put the odds against me living happy life down but this man is right i can change somethings in my life maybe not everything but something I can and will try to overcome my problems and hopefully i can live a full life.

[MarlynneStruwig-jeqr]

As someone with extreme panic attacks... I've trained my brain of course with the help of meds to ignore the sensations of the attack to focus on anything else... Rubbing my fingers together, doing a soduku puzzle, focusing on breathing.... You have to concentrate so hard on keeping your mind off the panic attack while relaxing your body...

[mariannewolf]

Dear Rich Roll, I have watched countless of your podcasts over the years but this one really got to me... Powerful information and such a warmhearted Dr. Amen and you. Thank you big time for this interview and all you do. You DO make the world a better place.

[BruderAdrian]

Rich you're so cool and you're a personal role model for me. Thanks for your openness about your ADHD & previous addiction problems. I also have ADHD & it's hard to relate to with other men as they're almost always very closed off and walled up but you're so honest & true. I admire that.

[kimpowellart]

Rich, you are so thoughtful and skillful in your interviews. I’ve never perceived you as an interviewer whom interrupts!
This was the best podcast I’ve seen with Dr. Amen, thank you! It will be so interesting to hear about your brain scan. Nothing to fear :)❤

[tammyholmes]

I’ve learned a lot from many of your podcasts, but I don’t think I’ve ever experienced one as powerful and informative as this one. Thank you 🙏

[jithenin]

The 1st PODCAST watching within 5 Minutes of release GREAT to see “ Dr Daniel Amen “ with “ Rich “, thank you “ Rich “ for doing this ❤😊🙏

[sosoutherncustomequestrian]

I discovered you a few months ago and I have to tell you I absolutely LOVE your channel. The guests that you have on are quite honestly amazing and Dr. Amen is a doctor I knew about many years ago when my daughter was diagnosed with ADHD and I wanted to hear what Dr. Amen has to say about Alzheimer's and Dementia. I cannot begin to tell you how much you have helped in my life by bringing Dr. Amen and Dr. Mosconi in my life. Thank you for your wonderful channel and no, you don't interrupt too much😄

[postrock]

His advice to explain better to kids/teens is so good. I never listened to adults partly cuz my childhood made me not trust them but most of the time I just needed things explained instead of just saying “don’t do that” or “do this”. I needed things explained so I could understand even if I didn’t fully trust some of them.
