Feel Good From Within with Yvette Le Blowitz - #SPAITGIRL Podcast
EP.202 - The Grieving Brain w/Mary-Frances O'Connor, PhD, Grief Expert, Neuroscientist and Psychologist
In The Grieving Brain, renowned grief expert and neuroscientist Mary-Frances O'Connor, PhD shares groundbreaking discoveries about what happens in our brain when we grieve, providing a new paradigm for understanding love, loss and learning.
For as long as humans have existed, we have struggled when a loved one dies.
Poets and playwrights have written about the dark cloak of grief, the deep yearning, how devastating heartache feels.
But until now, we have had little scientific perspective on this universal experience.
Mary-Frances O'Connor,PhD, has devoted decades to researching the effects of grief on the brain and in her book The Grieving Brain, she makes cutting-edge neuroscience accessible through her contagious enthusiasm, and guides us through how we encode love and grief.
With love, our neurons help us form attachments to others, but with loss, our brain must come to terms with where our loves ones went, or how to imagine a future that encompasses their absence.
Based on O'Connor's own trailblazing neuroimaging work, research in the field, and her real-life stories, The Grieving Brain does what the best popular science books do, combining storytelling, accessible science, and practical knowledge that will help us better understand what happens when we grieve.
Yvette Le Blowitz Podcast Host talks with Mary-Frances O'Connor,PhD author of The Grieving Brain who shares a practical overview of what happens when we grieve and how to navigate loss with more ease.
