The search for a happier brain | Erin Matlock | TEDxStPeterPort

Mental health advocate Erin Matlock shares her deeply personal story of using neuroscience to end a 15 year long battle with depression.In this courageous talk she provides a raw and honest look into a life that completely unraveled and the unorthodox journey to put it back together. Pairing shocking details with the shame that all sufferers share, she presents a path where connection and transparency create light in the darkest corners of the mind.

Erin Matlock is founder of Brain Summit, a mental health advocate and popular blogger. After overcoming a crippling battle with severe depression, she went on to create an online community where she openly shares her search for a better brain.
Intimately familiar with the emotional and physical challenges of the community she serves, Erin actively engages a following of 200,000 people each month. For 10 years, she has worked in the brain health and mental health markets helping individuals and organizations reach a wider audience by connecting at an honest and human level. In the Fall of 2015, Erin produced The Sound/Mind Experiment. She became a public case study for The Listening Program, an evidence based sound frequency training that is used to enhance focus, productivity, creativity and emotional resilience. What started as a quest for better brain performance turned into a journey of self awareness, connectedness and a deep sense of inner peace and belonging.
