Essentials: Understanding & Healing the Mind | Dr. Karl Deisseroth

I used to think healing the mind meant fixing what was "broken" in me. But this conversation helped me see something deeper: our mind doesn’t need fixing it needs understanding. For years, I carried silent pain. Smiled in public, collapsed in private. Therapy helped, but I still felt like no one truly saw the inner storms. Until I stumbled upon this video. Dr. Deisseroth doesn’t just talk science he brings compassion into it. It reminded me that our mind is not the enemy. It's a messenger. And every symptom anxiety, burnout, numbness is the psyche’s way of whispering: listen to me. I paired this insight with the tools I found in Instant Deep Relief from Manifest Zen especially the body-based exercises that helped me feel safe in my own skin again. If you’re lost, overwhelmed, or quietly battling something no one sees… start here. Understanding is the first step. Healing follows.

How weird that I discovered Huberman by watching ASAP science. This is way more my type of zero-cost info. Awesome channel.

Dr Karl Deisseroth is an absolute gem! Gotta reread his beautifully written book again

The discussion between Dr. Karl Deisseroth and Dr. Huberman has to be one of the best podcasts I have listened to regarding brain science and the practical functioning of the brain and its many abnormalities and ailments. I can’t wait for Dr. Huberman to bring Dr. Deisseroth back for more discussions on brain science

Really would love to see Dr deisseroth again on your podcast. He was and still is a huge inspiration in my life, what an amazing human

Excellent interview. Mind related science is hard to quantify but this guy is a true professional and kept it neutral.

It's a wonderful conversation, regarding high functional ADHD, from my practical experience..outward they look bright but inside it will be a storm , I think it differs from person to person ..for a border line high functioning ADHD they just need ," positive words" , " validating words " ..any negative words will break them emotionally 😭😭

Thank God, I Hope everyone can heal and learn to be better. ❤

This looks like an old recording … I love this guy Karl :)
