Neuroscientist: Babies That DON'T Get Enough Attention SUFFER For Life - Dr Greer Kirshenbaum PhD
#345: Nurturing Babies’ Brains to Revolutionize Mental Health with Greer Kirshenbaum
In this episode, I chat with Greer Kirshenbaum, an Author, Mother, Neuroscientist, Doula, and Infant and Family Sleep Specialist. We discuss the power of nurture and how understanding early nurturing experiences can shape our adult lives and parenting styles. Greer talks about the importance of gentleness and modeling foundational pillars like nervous system regulation and setting healthy boundaries with children. We also explore the history and long-term effects of sleep training methods. Join us on this thought-provoking journey into the transformative effects of nurturing and neuroscience.
Greer Kirshenbaum PhD has combined her academic training with her experience as a doula and mother to lead The Nurture Revolution - A movement to nurture our babies’ brains to revolutionize mental health and impact larger systems in our world. Greer wants families, professionals, and workplaces to understand how early caregiving experience can boost mental wellness and diminish depression, anxiety, and addiction in adulthood by shaping babies’ brains through simple intuitive enriching experiences in pregnancy, birth, and infancy.
