Your brain on porn, Gary Wilson’s legacy and best lesson. I’m Dr. Trish Leigh in this video we are going to think about three things Gary Wilson the famous author of the premiere book “On The Dangers of Pornography on Brains” has passed away. I’d like us to pay tribute to him but also explore the impact that he’s had on the world and how we can have a huge takeaway from that lesson. So first what we’re going to do is think about Gary Wilson’s impact, secondly, we are going to look at how he did it, and then third your brain tip for the day and your motivation so that you can go out do exactly the same thing.
How did Gary Wilson impact the world and especially when it comes to pornography?
Well, I know that when I was inspired because when people are inspired to learn about the dangers of pornography it’s usually because it is impacting them in some way and it’s creating some challenges or some struggles in your own existence or in the existence of someone that you love or care about. So I know for me when I went to begin to learn more about the dangers of pornography because my mind was blown as to how complex and involved this whole thing is Gary Wilson’s book was the first one that I read. In that book, he talks about how dangerous pornography is but at the same time he gives you hope on being able to leave it behind and to be able to move on to a better life.
How did he do that?
He set the intention when he was inspired and motivated to learn more about pornography and how dangerous it is. In 2010 he made content for other people and he created a website your brain on porn, where he has put together so much information on the science behind pornography and its impact on brains and lives but also anecdotal experiences for many people as they are traversing this journey. So that website is there for you still his legacy and his impact lives on through that website and through his book. However, he had to go through many challenges to be able to get that book into the world across his lifetime. There was controversy, he had lawsuits. He went against people who were trying to retort different things that he was saying people who were trying to spin pornography as healthy. So my point about that is his life and his legacy weren’t without its challenges and of course, that is going to parallel the journey that you will have to make. It can be tricky at first it can be difficult at first but I know that his website will be an amazing resource for you. And hopefully following in his footsteps I can be a resource for you too.
