A 14-year career as a paramedic left my mind a full mess. Diagnosed with PTSD and with a long list of symptoms that left my mind having exploded all over the neighbourhood, I was forced to clean up the mess. Working in an industry prone to breakages, I decided to bring all the knowledge I've collected into a book, creating an understanding of how the mind works. You never know when others might need to clean up their own mess and need some guidance. Through the inspiring work of psychologist Daren Wilson, and many others in the field of psychology and neuroscience, I have formulated my own understanding and applied the knowledge to restructure my brain, healing the damage incurred through trauma exposure. Understanding how the large-scale regions of the brain come together as a team of operators to perform roles and tasks to achieve an organised system is paramount in understanding how the whole system becomes dysregulated. With a constant flow of information coming and going through the sieve of our mind, it can quickly become clogged and block up the system. With advances in neuroscience, we now understand how best to get the most out of our mental team members as individuals and as a team working together as a regulated system. Torn between short and long-term survival, motivated by pleasure and pain, we all struggle to maintain balance in a world dominated by hijackers. This knowledge integrates into the mind-brain-body-environment connection and provides the tools required to do our mental housework. I can't do the housework for you, but I can show you where I found my dirt and guide you in the right direction.
