Clearing Trauma with Dr. Don Wood
Episode description
In this episode of The Optimized Mind, Dr. Kate talks with Dr. Don Wood, founder of The Inspired Performance Institute. The discussion focuses on Dr. Don’s path to developing a ground-breaking program to help people clear trauma, calm the mind and body and move towards potential. Central themes which emerge through the discussion include the importance of fixing the problem (unresolved trauma) and not just treating the symptoms (anxiety, depression, inflammation, etc). The ways in which it is possible to reset how the mind deals with trauma and why this is so important in unlocking one’s ability to maximize performance and potential across domains, and the power in the mind’s ability to default to strengths and focus on healing and not danger.
Don Wood, a PhD in clinical counseling, author and the founder of Inspired Performance Institute, helps people reframe their trauma and get their lives to a place of high performance.
After spending years researching how trauma affects our minds and our lives, Dr. Wood found that events and experiences throughout our lifetime continue to play a role in how we experience life in the present.
