Caroline Williams - How to safely tune-in to body signals. Inner Sense

Описание: Science-writer Caroline Williams (author of Move and the new book Inner Sense) comes back to our channel to share her latest findings on interoception - your brain’s moment-to-moment read-out of everything happening inside your body. We cover…
Why movement, whether that’s press-ups, yoga or even a brisk dog-walk can sharpen heartbeat awareness and lower anxiety
_ Flotation-tank experiments, vibrating “gut pills” and restricted-breathing trials that shed light on how easily the brain can mis-label internal signals
_ Twitching during REM sleep and how the body may “teach” the developing brain from the bottom-up
_ Fat cells that sense light, gut “neuropod” cells that count calories in milliseconds and what that means for sugar cravings
_ GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, body-budget errors and the emerging, compassionate view of obesity
_ Practical tips for tuning-in safely - and why “always trust your gut” isn’t the whole story
