Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning
John Medina's Brain Rules Revisited: How Neuroscience Can Transform Classrooms and Workplaces of the Future

Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning

Episode 370 reviews Dr. John Medina's insights from Brain Rules and explores how neuroscience and social-emotional learning combine to improve teaching, learning, and well-being. Key takeaways: teachers need basic neuroscience to support learning; the emotional stability of the home strongly shapes a child's resilience and confidence; and children build resilience when adults co-regulate and model healthy emotion management during high-emotion moments. This short review highlights practical steps for educators, parents, and leaders to apply brain-based strategies and SEL to boost student outcomes and lifelong skills. EP 370 covers a review of Dr. John Medina's Brain Rules, from EP 42 (February 2020)  We learned: ✔ If education is about the brain, then teachers need to understand how the brain learns best. ✔ A child's resilience and confidence are deeply tied to the emotional climate of the home. ✔  Children build resilience not in calm moments, but in how parents (or caregivers) respond when emotions run high. Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. Episode 370: Brain Rules and the Future of Learning For today's Episode 370[i], we continue our journey into the mind with our next interview review—Dr. John Medina, author of the well-known book Brain Rules. We first featured Dr. Medina in EP 42, when we explored “Implementing Brain Rules in Schools and Workplaces of the Future.” To remind you where we began with our interview review series: We opened with EP 366[ii], diving into speaker Bob Proctor's timeless principles. Bob was the very first person—over 25 years ago—who challenged me with the question, “What do you really want to do with your life?” At the time, I didn't have a clear answer. It's taken well over 25 years now for this clarity to evolve. Eventually, I realized what mattered most to me: and that was bringing social and emotional learning (SEL) skills into schools. I had already seen how these skills—once called “soft skills”—transformed the lives of 12 teenagers I worked with in the motivational speaking industry in the late 1990s. Later, I watched as SEL spread into schools across states and countries, until the research became undeniable. A 2011 meta-analysis of 213 studies confirmed what I had seen firsthand a decade before this study was released: students who participated in SEL programs showed an 11-percentile-point increase in academic performance[iii] compared to control groups. That's a significant improvement, demonstrating just how powerful SEL can be. Long before this research, I simply knew these skills could shape the future of the next generation. This podcast itself was built around the six core SEL competencies—each explored in its own dedicated episode that you can find in our resource section in the show notes. Then came the next step: adding the lens of neuroscience. I realized that everything we were studying in SEL connected back to how the brain works. My deep dive into what I called “Neuroscience 101” began when an educator handed me a stack of books that opened my eyes to the importance of brain science in education. From those early hand-drawn sketches grew the framework that still guides this podcast today—bridging SEL and neuroscience to make learning both practical and powerful.   Which brings us to today's review: Episode 370, where we revisit Dr. John Medina. At the heart of this conversation is the very question that launched my journey years ago: What happens when we connect social and emotional learning with neuroscience? How can understanding the brain not only improve results and productivity, but also better equip our next generation of students in the classroom? It was John Medina's Brain Rules that first landed on my bookshelf back in 2009. And to be honest—it just sat there for a while. I wasn't ready yet. As Dr. Medina himself has said, this kind of learning can't be forced. You need a strong why to really dive into the mind–brain connection. For me, that why came later, when I realized how deeply understanding the brain could impact learning, teaching, and even life itself. If you're following along with this podcast, I imagine you've had a similar moment—when the connection between the brain and practical neuroscience suddenly made sense and became something worth pursuing. I'm always curious about what that moment looks like for others—what it is that makes this topic click. For me, it became clear during my very first presentation on this subject in November 2017, at a conference for the York Region School District in Toronto. The topic I was in charge of presenting was Stress, Learning, and the Brain, and the room was so full it was standing room only. This was after just three years of studying the topic myself, and when I first opened up David Souza's How the Brain Learns Series, I honestly thought this topic was over my head, and too difficult for me to understand, let alone having me teach it to others. But once there is a strong why, the way will be shown. And that day, when I saw how many people showed up to learn the topic, I knew this was the field I wanted to dedicate the rest of my life to—continuing to learn, and helping others understand and apply to their lives. VIDEO 1 Click Here to Watch Now that you know where this mind-brain connection began for me, I hope you can gain clarity with why it's so important to you. Important enough that you are tuning into this podcast to learn more. Wouldn't you know it—understanding this WHY with the brain-mind connection to thrive at home, work and school and with sport is exactly what Dr. John Medina said to me during our interview back in February 2020. If you click the link in the show notes, you can watch VIDEO 1, where he explains: “I believe that the cognitive neurosciences should be at the table of education training. Before you get a Bachelor Degree in Education, you have to have a fair degree of neuroscience. And it's a very specific slice—it's the kind of neuroscience that says: this is what we know about how the brain learns. Because teachers are in charge of that. It blows me away sometimes—I look at the Colleges of Education: if you're in the Geology Department, you study rocks. If you go to Medical School, you study humans. You could argue that the world of education is all about studying the brain. Where are the courses that say—‘This is how memory works. This is how we get someone to pay attention. This is what visual processing looks like.'” Dr. Medina is 100% right. When I went through teacher training at The University of Toronto, courses like this weren't offered. Fast forward to today, and my daily work now focuses on supporting educators with the Science of Reading—a body of research that, much like SEL, took decades to gain traction but is finally reshaping classrooms and teacher training, impacting how we teach our next generation of students to read. Of course, this knowledge can't just be forced on us. It's not easy material—it requires effort to learn. But if you're listening to this podcast each week, it's because you're curious. You're willing to dig into concepts that, until recently, were reserved for medical students. That's how Dr. Douglas Fisher gained his insights into how the brain learns best. As he told me in EP 161[iv], How Learning Works: Translating the Science of Learning into Strategies for Maximum Learning in Your Classroom, he actually sat in classes with medical students to develop a deeper understanding of brain-based learning—knowledge we were never given in traditional teacher training.

They call medical textbooks the “gold standard,” but the truth is most of them are dead wrong — outdated, manipulated, and bought off by the very industries that profit from keeping you sick. Behind those thousand-page monsters sits Big Pharma, food lobbyists, and academic sellouts who cash checks to push a narrative disguised as science. Ghostwritten chapters, professors pocketing consulting fees, and publishers cranking out new editions with barely a change — it’s not education, it’s indoctrination. And the worst part? Young doctors memorize it all, turning corporate propaganda into medical “truth” that dictates how you’re treated. From the food pyramid fraud to the opioid crisis to scrubbing inconvenient drug side-effects, the money trail explains it all. The people making billions on prescriptions and treatments are the same ones paying for the textbooks that trained your doctor. This isn’t just a scam, it’s a system of control. On this episode of Stinchfield, we tear the cover off this racket and expose who really writes medicine — Dr. Peter McCullough is our guest to expose and once you see the money behind the pages. You will never trust the words “the textbook says” again. I’ve partnered with The Wellness Company to bring you their Emergency Prescription Medical Kit. It’s peace of mind in a box — critical, doctor-prescribed medicines you can’t just grab off the shelf.

The story of a whistle blower and millions in government grants..."Cover-Up!: COLLUSION IN THE HALLS OF ACADEMIA - SECOND EDITION" by Helene Z. Hill, PhDThis is a story about scientific fraud and one woman's attempt to set the record straight.In March 2001, post-doctoral fellow Dr. Marek Lenarczyk reported to Professor Helene Z. Hill that he had found that post-doctoral fellow Dr. Anupam Bishayee had set up an experiment involving cultured mammalian cells that were contaminated with bacteria or mold. Drs Hill and Lenarczyk believed that the lab chief, Dr. Roger Howell, had great faith in Dr. Bishayee and would not believe them if they reported their observations to him at that time. They thus determined to follow the progress of the experiment to its end knowing that it could not produce reliable results. This fateful decision would set in motion twelve years of investigations by the University's Campus Committee on Research Integrity - three sittings, the US Public Health Service's Office of Research Integrity-two sittings, a qui tam Federal law suit charging violation of the False Claims Act, followed by 6 depositions by members of the department of Radiology of the NJ Medical School, 3 depositions by expert witnesses: 2 for the prosecution and one for the defense, a ruling by by the Federal District Court that there had been no violation of the False Claims Act because defendant Principle Investigator Howell had not known at the time that he filed the grant application that some of the data, produced by Bishayee, were false. Finally, a ruling for the defendants by the US Court of Appeals for the third Circuit in Philadelphia brought an end to the court case. Hill and expert witness Professor Joel Pitt now attempted to publish their findings of data fabrication and finally succeeded after 12 rejections.Dr. Helene Z. Hill is a graduate of Smith College and received a PhD in biology from Brandeis University in 1964. She was a post-doctoral fellow at Harvard and the University of Colorado Medical Schools, and she rose through the ranks from assistant to full professor at the Medical Schools of the University of Colorado; Washington University in St. Louis; Marshall University, Huntington, West Virginia; and the New JerseyMedical School, in Newark, New Jersey. Dr. Hill has co-authored more than eighty scientific publications and was awarded the Smith College Medal in 1997. Dr. Hill retired in December 2016 and is Professor Emerita, at Rutgers-The State University of New Jersey. Dr Hill has written Hidden Data: The Blind Eye of Science CreateSpace 2016 and co-wrote with Amy Waters Yarsinske Cover-Up: Collusion in the Halls of Academia.

For many, integrative medicine has become an unattainable luxury, and healthy diet and lifestyle the prerogative of the privileged. Today's guest, Dr. Ramona Wallace, is attempting to change that. Trained conventionally as a DO, she undertook additional training and certification via the Institute for Functional Medicine to broaden her clinical skills. She practices primary care in an underserved community in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where she incorporates diet and lifestyle recommendations to address her patients' chronic conditions. Careful nutritional assessment has revealed that many of her patients, while overtly overweight, are decidedly malnourished. She has documented a wide range of deficiencies—of B vitamins, vitamins A, C, and D, critical minerals like zinc and magnesium, even full-blown scurvy. These are precisely the patients who are most likely to benefit from nutritional support. Discovering obstacles to compliance is a key element to effect their health transformations. Dr. Wallace believes that individualized care is the key to reversing long-standing health conditions. She mentors medical students in the first-of-its-kind Functional Medicine program at a medical school. She has also co-authored a landmark paper arguing for wellness self-care by doctors, to stave off burnout and to help them be better role models for patients.

(00:00) Reflections on Medical School and Healthcare(11:01) Evaluating Medical School Admissions Criteria(15:10) Navigating Changes in Medical Education(20:53) Adapting to Changes in Medical EducationFrom a first-generation college student passionate about science to the founder of Medical School Headquarters, my journey in the world of medicine has been anything but ordinary. My early aspirations to become an orthopedic surgeon were pivoted by a life-altering injury, steering me toward a path in medicine where collaboration trumped competition, even when faced with discouraging academic advice.As we track the shifting landscape of medical school admissions, I share insights on how empathy, communication, and leadership have become just as crucial as GPA and MCAT scores. Conversations with fellow parents and colleagues reveal a new paradigm where schools cherish soft skills to foster successful patient outcomes. While some institutions still cling to academic metrics, there's a growing acknowledgment of the significance of compassionate care, encouraging future doctors to become empathetic caregivers and active community members.Navigating the evolving realm of medical education, we tackle the ripple effects of policy changes, like the Supreme Court's stance on affirmative action and potential shifts in loan forgiveness programs. Despite these challenges, there's a surge in privately funded residency positions that open doors for new generations of medical students. By exploring initiatives like Application Renovation and the role of AI in medicine, we underscore the need for adaptability in this dynamic field, ensuring that aspiring doctors are well-prepared for the future of healthcare.
