- Brain Claims: What's Hype? What's Healing?
January 20, 2012
The human brain is in the news and with it, endless recommendations for maximizing its functioning. Maintaining your brain should not be a full-time job. This plenary will cut through all the hype and zero in on what to include in a sane brain maintenance plan.
- Spot Removing: Positive Strategies for Decreasing Social Exclusion in Your Life and the World
March 23, 2012
Were you the last one picked in gym class? Do you worry about inviting all your children’s classmates to a birthday party? If the answer to either question is "yes," then you are not alone. Social exclusion is both an inevitable and painful part of the human world. However, it is also used to obtain power over others in our heavily stratified culture. This webinar will explore why being left out hurts and provide strategies to decrease social exclusion where it is not necessary.
- Reconnecting the Dopamine Reward System to Healthy Relationship
May 18, 2012
The Mesolimbic dopamine system evolved so that when humans participate in activities that are life affirming (like drinking water, eating healthy foods, and being in healthy relationship) they get a hit of mood enhancing dopamine. They feel better. The cultural imperative to "stand on your own two feet" actively undermines this pathway so that healthy relationship becomes disconnected from that good feeling of dopamine. This webinar will describe the physiology behind the dopamine reward system and will provide strategies to reconnect the dopamine reward system to relationship.
