Episode Description:

 You can have the healthiest heart, body and muscles in the world, and still not feel healthy if your brain isn't right. Dr. Amir Vokshoor is a neurosurgeon and spine surgeon who has treated more than 10,000 pain patients. He is also the founder of the NeuroVella Brain Spa in Santa Monica. This conversation covers what's damaging our brains, what chronic pain does to the nervous system, why so many spine and brain problems start in the gut, and the two-second exercise he gives every patient.

Dr. Vokshoor's health takes — in order:

Take 1: “There is no health without brain health” Your brain was never built for 24/7 information, and constant stress stops your nervous system from resetting.

Take 2: “Your life is your artwork” Science is never 100% certain, and flow state is how you tap into abilities we haven’t uncovered yet.

Take 3: “Pain is not always a bad thing” Chronic pain rewires the brain, and most of the pain patients he sees carry an emotional element.

Take 4: “It’s called the second brain for a reason”Many brain and spine problems start in the gut, and gut health can make or break recovery from surgery.
