This episode dives into the different areas of the brain-- the reptilian/primitive brain (where automatic self-preserving behavior patterns activate) vs. the frontal cortex (where high-level cognitive function, including attention, working memory, and social emotional evaluation of stimuli are processed) and how Buddhism can serve as the foundational tool of bringing one back to our "fundamental sanity," as a human species. We also discuss ideas of attachment, healing, freeing oneself from "the story," and settling into the true nature of oneself. "Most people don't act badly if they were loved." More often than not there has been damage to the brain. With advances in technology and greater understandings of neuroplasticity and the brain, health and wellbeing continue to make wider strides and move forward in society. http://www.buddhistpsychotherapyny.com/ (buddhistpsychotherapyny.com) | http://www.neurofeedbacktraining.com/ (neurofeedbacktraining.com)
