  • Summary

  • In this weeks episode of the Mental Health Pod I was joined by Dr. Chuck Raison of Wisconsin Madison University. Chuck is an internationally recognized psychiatrist researching novel mechanisms involved in the development and treatment of major depression and other stress-related emotional and physical conditions. Outside of his academic work, Chuck acts as the mental health expert for CNN.com. Our chat encompasses a huge range of topics from the use of saunas, antidepressants, and psychedelics to improve mental health to touching on the evolutionary case for depression. Other interesting tangents include discussions on the effectiveness of mindfulness and how Tibetan monks can dry wet sheets on their back through raising their own body temperatures.Chuck's research is truly fascinating and I urge you to check it out further.
