[close] What is the most common question associated with the Enneagram--what number are you? It may be a fun party trick, but neuroscience says otherwise. The first thing to know about the Brain-Based Enneagram is that it shows you are actually all nine numbers with varying degrees of efficiency in each. Just as you have a whole body composed of many parts, not just a leg or an arm, you are a whole person composed of many qualities; not simply one aspect of a personality. The brain is where personality lives. If you want to grow in self-awareness, the brain is the muscle to exercise. That is what the Brain-Based Enneagram is all about; It is a way to tangibly, practically access the brain for personal growth and wellbeing.

[close] 15 years ago I gave birth to a baby girl who was born blue - she'd been starved of oxygen, was unable to breathe for herself and had suffered from brain damage. There was a clinical trial going on at the time which we hoped would save her life. The Covid19 pandemic has made me reflective as I watch science and doctors and countless clinical trials race to find a vaccine, treatment or cure. This video tells the true story of how the clinical trial saved my baby daughter and also reveals details about my new book release of this time - a medical miracle memoir. It's a life-affirming, easy-to-read uplifting little book which details everything that happened - the birth which went wrong, the scary hours straight afterwards, the clinical trial and what that entailed them doing to my beautiful baby, the fear that we might not end up with a happy ending. It makes the perfect summer reading and a great present for anyone who likes reading about real life miracles. It's available in kindle or paperback on

[close] Interview with Life Coach Nizam about Three Brains Gut Brain Heart Brain Coaching What is 3 Brains Coaching about? As we all know, everything we do - in personal and professional life - is based on conscious or subconscious decisions, and more than 90% of our decisions are made by our subconscious. What is the breakthrough? Our subconscious is actually 2 Brains: our Heart and Gut Brain. Wellbeing and success are dependent on whether you can align your 3 - Head, Heart and Gut Brain - in your decision making process. Because, what is blocking long lasting results? Decisions made by 1 or 2 Brains and not 3! When they do not communicate with each other they stay reflexively loyal to an old behaviour or belief that could cause them pain! Even when it works against them in some context! 3 Brains Coaching provides you this control 🔎 read more at https://www.pealacademy.com/3-brains-... 🙌🏻 Looking forward to meeting you in one of the 3 Brains

[close] From industrious ants to mischievous whales, sensing, understanding, and responding appropriately to the world is an essential life function. Throughout millions of years, the nervous system has evolved to perform the crucial function of interpreting the world in various animal species based on the unique challenges they faced in different environments. Drawing simultaneously from contemporary research on sensory and perceptual mechanisms as well as historical documentation of the anatomy of sensory systems, award-winning Baby Senses, by author Dr. Jaya Viswanathan, provides a unique window into the marvels of sensory perceptions that is appealing to children and curious adults. The neuroscience paintings included illustrate a world normally only accessible through a microscope to scientists or in technical scientific articles.

[close] Taking a cue from the book published by Frenis Zero psychoanalytic publishing house, "Psychoanalysis and its Borders" synthetizes the task of this group, that is the mission to investigate an area of research that Frenis Zero has been wanting to cover since its foundation: that of the dialogue of contemporary psychoanalysis with adjoining disciplines (neuroscience, infant research, cultural anthropology), often with epistemologies that in origin and history appear to share nothing with it.

[close] Cara is a dedicated neuroscientist with a research post at Cambridge. Heather is her almost-stepdaughter, drifting towards the end of school, trying to picture a future that fits her.
