The Critical Role of Sensory Input and Interoception in Brain Health

In this episode, we explore how the brain thrives on proper sensory input from the external environment and internal awareness, known as interoception. Highlighting its importance in neuropsychology, we discuss how interoception contributes to a sense of self and its connection to physical, mental, and emotional health. The speaker shares insights from extensive research across multiple fields, including neurodevelopment and biochemistry, and ties the findings back to chiropractic, emphasizing the need for greater discourse on this subject within the chiropractic community.
