I have a question about this episode The Neuroscience of Optimal Performance: Dr. Andrew Huberman | Rich Roll Podcast and this Understanding Trauma's Roots. In the episode Erasing Fears & Traumas Based on the Modern Neuroscience of Fear | Huberman Lab Podcast #49 and the clip Recalibrating Internal States, Andrew Huberman discusses a process to erase fear and traumas, stating that first you need to extinguish the fear or trauma by retelling the narrative. The goal is to diminish the physiological response, right? If the goal is to diminish the physiological response, then if a person works to change their physiological response immediately after being triggered, would that over time also diminish the physiological response and therefore break the conditioning? Am I right? For example, if a person had a traumatic experience with a spider, but every time they see the spider or get activated through some trigger, and immediately after use breathwork to calm the body, would that work like retelling a narrative to extinguish the fear? Did I miss something?
Does the statement "Dr. Andrew Huberman explains that when the Prefrontal Cortex and amygdala are in overdrive, this causes us to stress over things others might ignore" broadly correspond to what he says in the episode CONTROL And LEVERAGE Dopamine To Never Lack MOTIVATION Again! | Andrew Huberman and the clip Embracing Agitation?
