So when we're in that state and the brain is in that aroused state, we try to control and predict everything.

So every person, every object, every thing, every place, even your body has a neurological network in your brain, right?

So as the arousal happens, we start shifting our attention to all these elements and like a lightning storm,

In the clouds, the brain starts firing very, very incoherently.

And when the brain's incoherent, we're incoherent.

That's a static on the wire.

That's disconnection.

There is no signal.

Right.

So when we're in that state, we're always really looking for the worst case scenario of what's going to happen because if you prepare for the worst, anything less happens, a better chance of survival, right?

So in this kind of aroused state, as we shift our attention to each one of these elements that are known in our environment, the brain starts compartmentalizing and firing out of order.

And that is what creates what's called autonomic dysregulation.

That causes the brain and body to get really out of balance, right?

So in that state, we're overfocused.

You know, when you're stressed, you're overfocused on something.

You can't stop thinking about it.

Our research...

shows that when you do that, you actually make your brain worse.

Because you're analyzing your problems within some disturbing emotion, and that emotion is driving you further out of balance.

You're actually knocking your brain and body out of balance by thought alone, and you're driving it into these more aroused states, right?
