  • Why "just let it go" is terrible advice from a neuroscience view
    May 13 2025

    In this episode, we'll peek at why "just let it go" and "just get over it" and "just stop worrying" is such crappy advice from a neuroscience perspective. We'll look at how your brain actually processes emotions, & why these cliche phrases backfire to make things even worse. We'll look at what your nervous system actually needs instead, and how social support and oxytocin play a role in helpful responses.
