Uncovering the Secrets of the Adolescent Brain: How Vaping, Sleep, and Dopamine Affect Teen Health
Description
In this episode, I speak with my friend and fellow Village of Inspiration member, Dr. Miriam Mandel.
Dr. Mandel gets deep and hits a home-run on topics that need more conversation, as they will greatly improve the outlook of our kids.
Understanding the adolescent brain; how kids interpret some verbal communications and facial expressions. This was an eye opener for me!
She also talks about teen vaping and its impact on the brain, something that kids and parents need to be more knowledgeable about.
Why adolescents need ample sleep, and the affects in can have on their daily routines.
She left clinical pediatrics and has been researching and teaching the connections between mind and body medicine for over 13 years. Her passion is teaching individuals, especially teens and their families, to look for the answers they are seeking on the INSIDE, where all the answers lie.
Dr. Mandel currently sees individual clients but most of her time is working with K-12 staff (and parents) in public and private schools helping them learn to self-regulate and self soothe, using their physiology and mindset. She supports them in learning these skills for themselves and the natural progression of teaching it to their students by being the example. It’s a win-win.
