Description

What if burnout wasn’t a sign of failure – but a signal that your brain is starved of creativity?

In this episode of the Health and Wellness Marketing Show, Uli Iserloh reconnects with Dr. Lara Salyer to explore the neuroscience of flow – why it matters, how it impacts your productivity and mental health, and what practical steps you can take to invite more flow into your daily life.

From the biochemistry behind creative states to the AHA framework and boundary-setting tips, Dr. Salyer shares a roadmap to reignite your inner spark.

If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or creatively blocked, this episode will help you access the energy, clarity, and joy needed to thrive again.

• Discover the four phases of flow and how your brain releases five key neurochemicals that fuel creativity, clarity, and productivity.


• Learn why planning and boundary-setting are essential to access deep flow – and why multitasking and reactivity kill it.


• Understand the biggest blockers of flow, including poor physiology, clutter, and fixed mindset patterns.


• Find out how Dr. Salyer’s AHA framework – Anchor, Highlight, Activate – can help you shift from burnout to brilliance.


• Explore how creative rituals, morning routines, and micro-moments of play can rewire your brain and bring joy back into your work.

Quotes to Remember:

• “Flow is the only time your brain produces all five neurochemicals of happiness.” (02:30 | Dr. Lara Salyer)


• “Creativity is not a luxury – it’s a daily vitamin your brain craves.” (04:40 | Dr. Lara Salyer)


• “Your brain is like a battery – every distraction drains your cognitive reserve.” (10:18 | Dr. Lara Salyer)


• “Burnout and grief look the same on a brain scan – it's time we normalize both.” (22:34 | Dr. Lara Salyer)


• “You can’t create without space. Make room for the ‘no’ so flow can enter.” (26:10 | Dr. Lara Salyer)
