You are already training your brain every single day—but are you choosing the program?

In this episode I explain the surprising truth about how your daily habits are literally rewiring your brain for either stress or peace. Without even realizing it, many of us are unintentionally programming our minds to stay in fight-or-flight mode!

I walk you through 5 common habits you might be doing right now that are training your brain for anxiety and stress. But don't worry! For each stress trigger, I share a simple, practical switch you can make today to start retraining your brain for calm instead.

Discover how your amygdala (your brain's threat detector) gets confused by modern life and learn powerful techniques to help it become less reactive and more resilient!

Whether you're dealing with chronic stress or simply want to boost your overall wellbeing, this episode offers game-changing insights that will transform how you feel every day.

Stay tuned until the end—there’s a surprising tip that’s super easy to implement! . .

Welcome to the first episode of the Retrain Your Brain Podcast. I'm your host, Katie Nickerson, a trauma-informed brain retraining coach! I’m kicking things off today by diving into my own story of navigating a decade of complex chronic illness and finding incredible healing through brain retraining. This isn't just about my recovery; it's about showing you the incredible power your brain holds and how you can harness it to transform your health and life.

In this episode I'm peeling back the curtain on my journey through debilitating chronic pain, severe chronic fatigue, CIRS, MCS, food sensitivities, MCAS, and more! I share my process of searching for answers, the wild treatments that I tried (that didn’t work), and how I FINALLY healed!

If you're feeling stuck with chronic health issues or traditional treatments have let you down, there's hope! Tune in now for a dose of encouragement and science-backed solutions!
