They explore how the intense focus and immersion experienced by gamers can mimic a hypnotic state, and how this can both benefit and challenge their mental health and social skills.

Key Takeaways:

• Gamers often develop valuable skills like problem-solving, strategic thinking, and quick decision-making that are highly sought after in fields like IT, project management, and cybersecurity.
• The "flow state" experienced during gaming can also lead to issues like anxiety, ADHD, sleep disturbances, and social isolation if not balanced properly.
• Hypnosis can be a powerful tool to help gamers address underlying mental health challenges and regain a healthy balance between gaming and real-world interactions.
• Parents should engage with their children about their gaming habits, set boundaries, and encourage breaks and moderation to ensure gaming remains a positive part of their lives.

Clancy and Carolanne also discuss how online communication during gaming can enhance certain communication skills, but caution that it should not replace face-to-face social interactions, which are crucial for developing deeper social abilities.

Overall, this episode offers a nuanced perspective on the complex relationship between gaming, mental health, and social skills, providing valuable insights for gamers, parents, and anyone interested in the intersection of technology and human behavior.

In this episode of the Mind Body Link podcast, hosts Clancy Barton and Caroline Ashley discuss the profound connection between the mind and body and how it relates to chronic health conditions.

Clancy shares insights from her experience helping clients overcome challenges like autoimmune diseases and chronic pain. She explains how childhood experiences can shape the development of subconscious programs and neural pathways in the brain.

These programs can then be triggered by sensory inputs, activating the body's fight or flight response through the autonomic nervous system.

Clancy discusses how this ongoing stress response can deprive the body's systems of needed energy and contribute to chronic illness over time.

Listeners learn practical tools for cultivating self-awareness to recognize and manage emotional and physical triggers.

This episode provides valuable perspectives on understanding and addressing the root causes of chronic health problems.
