Primal Scream Therapy
The discussion dives into the intriguing connection between John Lennon and primal scream therapy, a method aimed at releasing childhood trauma through intense vocal expression. Andrew highlights how this therapy influenced Lennon’s music, particularly the raw emotions captured in his "Plastic Ono Band" album. The conversation also touches on the eccentricities of the therapy's founder, drawing parallels to theatrical exorcisms and the cultural zeitgeist of the 1970s.In this clip

I have a question about the episode 1030: Exorcism | Skeptical Sunday and the clip Primal Scream Therapy. I also have a question about the episode Master Your Mind & Change Your Brain - Andrew Huberman | Modern Wisdom 496 and the clip Confronting Trauma in the episode Dr. David Anderson: The Biology of Aggression, Mating, & Arousal | Huberman Lab Podcast #89 and the clip Tachykinins and Aggression. Andrew talks about a process to erase fear and traumas, stating that first you need to extinguish the fear or trauma by retelling the narrative. The whole point of that is to diminish the physiological response, right? If the goal is to diminish the physiological response, then if the 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 the person sees the spider or gets activated through some trigger and immediately after uses breathwork to calm the body, would that work like retelling a narrative to extinguish the fear? Did I miss something?
