In this conversation, Dr. Caroline Leaf inspires a song about the struggle for sanity in our crazy world. Dr. Leaf is a communication pathologist and cognitive neuroscientist and was one of the first in her field to study how the brain can change (neuroplasticity) with directed mind input.


During her years in clinical practice and her work with thousands of underprivileged teachers and students in her home country of South Africa and in the USA, she developed her theory (called the Geodesic Information Processing theory) of how we think, build memory, and learn, into tools and processes that have transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands of individuals with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), learning disabilities (ADD, ADHD), autism, dementias and mental ill-health issues like anxiety and depression. She has helped hundreds of thousands of students and adults learn how to use their mind to detox and grow their brain to succeed in every area of their lives, including school, university, and the workplace. https://drleaf.com/

THIS IS MAKING ME CRAZY


I can’t live in this place

It makes me crazy

All are wild with naked greed

To which somehow it seems that we have all agreed



I can’t live in a city

It makes me crazy

Overcrowded, poisoned air

Frowning face’s surrounding me everywhere



I can’t live with a job

It makes me crazy

Sold myself, get paid in stress

Now what I have left of my life’s worth so much less



When there's so much confusion

And so much is wrong

And so many people

Then I must be strong



When so much is wasted

And there's so much of strife

I need to change my life



I can’t live in a house

It makes me crazy

Even though I’ve too much stuff

What I have just never seems to be enough



I can’t live with a woman

They make me crazy

Always complaining, nothing’s right

All I get is criticism every night



When there's so much confusion

And so much is wrong

And so many people

Then I must be strong



When so much is wasted

And there's so much of strife

I need to change my life



I can’t live with a body

It makes me crazy

Aches and pains and colds and flu

And it never looks the way I want it to



I can’t live with a mind

It makes me crazy

Always talking, never peace

Even meditation gives me no release



I can’t live with myself

I make me crazy

Cos after all the things I’ve changed

I myself remain the same
