On this episode of The Great Brain Debate, I dive into the concept of tapping into your Wise Mind. Wise Mind is a core idea in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and it refers to that balanced mental state where rational thinking and emotions come together. It’s the place where the logical, fact-based part of your brain (the Reasonable Mind) meets the emotional, instinctive side (the Emotional Mind).
I’ll talk about how finding this middle ground can help you make better decisions, manage overwhelming emotions, and approach challenges with a sense of clarity and calm. Instead of reacting impulsively or overthinking situations, Wise Mind allows you to respond in a way that’s thoughtful and in tune with both your feelings and the facts. I’ll also share some practical strategies to access this state of mind, whether you’re in a moment of crisis or simply working through daily stress. Learning to tap into your Wise Mind can be an incredibly powerful tool for enhancing emotional resilience and gaining a deeper sense of self-awareness.

On this episode of The Great Brain Debate, I talk about Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT is a form of psychotherapy that combines both cognitive and behavior therapy to help people manage mental and emotional health challenges.
It’s a problem-oriented approach that focuses on helping individuals identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts, develop coping skills, and make meaningful changes to their behavior.
The goal is to empower people to gain more control over their thoughts, feelings, and actions, allowing them to respond to challenging situations in healthier, more effective ways.
