Heart of the Brain® – G18021
Do you learn best through your own experience? Why is it that some things are easier for you to do than others? How do play, nature, music, and making art influence you in ways that nothing else can? The doctor encourages you to exercise, sleep, hydrate and ‘eat an apple a day’. Why meditate or pray? Come learn basic principles about the brain’s function and plasticity – how it adapts, remembers, creates, and imagines in childhood and across life; the difference between good and bad stress; and new skills to keep it healthy, enhance memory, and support skills and talent in yourself and those around you. This Heart of the Brain® program dismantles outdated information and replaces it with fresh insight, to attach you, the participant, to the ‘feeling’ of your brain. A combination of science lecture, art and craft, guided meditation, outdoor play and a trip to the Deer Dance at the nearby Okhay Owinge Pueblo, allows you to feel and see what ‘I mean’, not just hear what ‘I say’. Your weekend promises a small but mighty transformation in how you understand Heart of the Brain® and yourself.
