Hobbies for Brain Balance: The Woo and Science Podcast Episode 15

In today’s episode, Dr. Michael and Dr. Meaghan Longyear sit down with Dr. Dominic Fetterly of the NeuroLife Institute in Atlanta, GA to explore something deceptively simple… hobbies — and why your brain desperately needs them. We live in a world that glorifies hustle and high output. But here's the truth: your brain wasn’t designed for nonstop productivity. It craves play, creativity, and meaningful engagement outside of work and responsibility. Whether it’s painting, gardening, woodworking, or even puzzling — these seemingly small activities have a massive impact on your mental health, emotional regulation, and cognitive resilience. We’ll explore the neuroscience behind why play matters, how hobbies regulate your nervous system, and what woo woo happens in your mind/body when you do something just because you enjoy it. 🔄 It's not just about distraction — it's about neuroplasticity, emotional healing, and bringing more balance into your life. 🛠 If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or just... disconnected, this episode will remind you that joy is productive — and your brain is wired for it. 🎧 Tune in, and maybe… pick up that paintbrush, that guitar, or that half-finished puzzle you left in the closet.
