How do pathways between the brain, body, and built environment shape our experience?
In this first episode of Crafted for Healing, neuroscientist Dr. Kelly Olson joins series guest host Roby Isaac for a look into the science behind healing spaces. Dr. Olson shares how our brains respond to built environments and how thoughtful design can help regulate stress, support well-being, and serve the needs of more people, including neurodivergent individuals.
From the amygdala to architectural cues, this conversation connects neuroscience to design in a practical way that reflects how we experience spaces. If you’re interested in creating environments where more people can thrive, it all starts here with the brain.
