As we continue to discover more about neural integration and the deeply social nature of the brain, we are moving towards remarkable new insights into the nature of the mind. Three human experiences have been documented to promote well-being: secure attachment, mindfulness meditation, and effective psychotherapy. In this course, you will explore how these systems share similar neural mechanisms, and the implications that this has for both attaining a state of well-being and transforming the brain.
Discover how the classic descriptions of major psychopathology–from autism to bipolar disorder–reveal blockages to neural differentiation and linkage in regions of the brain involved in social cognition and self-regulation. Take home new approaches to clinical assessment that are based on revealing the precise impairment to integration and offer a new conceptual framework for your clinical practice.
