Limbic System Retraining (part 3) with Dr. Kimberly Hindman
In this podcast episode, Dr. Kimberly Hindman discusses various techniques for limbic system retraining, which can be beneficial for patients with conditions like hyperadrenergic POTS. Dr. Hindman, who has experience both professionally and personally with conditions such as POTS, hypermobile EDS, and MCAS, outlines how chronic symptoms can be linked to the brain's limbic system and how retraining this system through neuroplasticity helps. Multiple methodologies like Dynamic Neural Retraining System (DNRS), the Gupta Program, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and more passive approaches such as Brain Tap focus on utilizing the brain's plasticity to mitigate inappropriate fight-or-flight responses. Dr. Hindman emphasizes personalized approaches and notes the importance of understanding the limbic system's role in symptom perpetuation, providing practical strategies and resources to aid recovery.
